GARTNER S INSIGHT TO CLOUD Cloud Computing is an approach to computing that leverages the efficient pooling of on-demand, self-managed virtual infrastructure, consumed as a service. Gartner s clients consider agility and speed to be the most important motivating factors in building private cloud computing solutions but they face difficult cultural, process, business model and political challenges that should be handled early in the development of a private cloud service. Efficiency thru Utilization and Automation Agility with Control Freedom of Choice Enterprises Private Cloud Operated solely for an organization, typically within the firewall Bridging Hybrid Cloud Composition of 2 or more interoperable clouds, enabling data and application portability Cloud Service Providers Public Cloud Accessible over the Internet for general consumption

Cloud Requires a New Approach to Automation and Management Traditional IT Management Cloud Management Applications managed at the individual device, usually the desktop, with limited data portability User access to applications and data managed across multiple devices ensuring availability anytime, anywhere Ad-hoc, manual approaches to building, testing, releasing complex applications based on monolithic architectures Applications developed and released on consistent, standardized, fully automated application platforms Static, traditional infrastructures with low levels of virtualization resulting in complex, often manual management processes Highly virtualized infrastructures (>80%) with embedded management resulting in high availability and greater agility Services and assets tied together in complex, brittle, vertical stacks that are hard to change and manage Business agility suffers IT able to keep up with the speed of the business Service components are abstracted and sourced from dynamic resource pools with horizontal layers loosely bound into services

Cloud Move the Needle Percent Virtualized Peer Worst 76% 25% 80% Peer Best What Moving the Needle to Peer Best Could Mean Improving virtualization from 76% to the peer best of 80% would virtualize 140 additional servers with a potential savings of $478,660 Savings per VM migrated = $3,419 VM:Admin Ratio Days for VM Provisioning Consumption Model Self-Service Capability 350 25:1 400:1 1 of 5 1 of 5 56 2 4 of 5 3 of 5 Resulting in total cost savings by 2 $4.4M 1 Improving the VM to Admin ratio from 350:1 to the peer best of 400:1 would result in process efficiencies equivalent to 0.9 FTEs with a potential savings of $78,624 Annual Savings per FTE = ~$87,360 Improving the virtual machine provisioning process from 56 to the peer best of 1 would result in an annual reduction in the provisioning process of 1,925 days with a potential savings of $1,540,000 Per day Savings from decreased provisioning time = $800 Improving the resource allocation process from the current situation (We would like to showback/chargeback but do not have the ability to do so) to the peer best (We have a showback/chargeback mechanism but it is manually managed) would result in potential savings of $2,024,238 Improving the Self Service and Service Catalog process from the current situation (We are starting to explore how self service can be implemented) to the peer best (We have self service available for test/dev) would result in potential savings of $252,799
