How We Adopted IT Austerity Adrian Davies SMBC IT Operations Manager
Our Journey Stockport Councils Challenges Budget reductions Reduced by 54m by 2014 and a further 65m by 2018 Reduced staff Loss of specialist skills Reduced CAPEX and OPEX Storage Server Virtualisation Application Government Initiatives Digital Government 22
Our Journey What We Needed to Achieve Provide a scalable easy to manage IT infrastructure Reduced CAPEX Hardware, Software and support Reduced ongoing OPEX Software licensing and support People Power Cooling Space 23
How Do We Adapt To The Changes Embrace WebScale methodology Hyperconvergence True software defined DC Introduction of generalists Reduced Footprint Smaller DC Reduced costs» Power, Cooling, Space Meet OPEX budget targets Simplified Management Unified Single Pane of Glass High levels of Automation Benefits of cloud with enterprise IT assurance 24
Biggest Challenges Change Re deployment of staff Focus on delivering business change benefits Justification IT as a service Reduced OPEX Physical Workloads Transition toward 100% virtualisation Measurable TCO How do you show ongoing operational budget savings 25
Outcomes Reduced footprint from 9 racks to 1 half height racks OPEX budgets reducing by 50% DR, Production and Back up backup in a two site deployment RTO down from 5 days to 2 hours RPO down from 1 day to 30 mins Tapeless data back up and recovery Breaking existng knowledge silos (3FTE) Redeployed staff to focus on developing business needs High levels of automation Deployed in hours not months Time to value accelerated 26
