Develop an infrastructure cost optimization strategy
• Uncertainty, Volatility, and Opportunity

Uncertainty, Volatility, and Opportunity • Uncertainty: Economic slowdown and market sentiment

Uncertainty, Volatility, and Opportunity • Uncertainty: Shifting demographics and new works patterns
– Demographic shifts
• Aging global population
• Supply greater than demand due to global competition
• Less loyal, less predictable consumers
– Work pattern shift towards
• Service-based economy – organizations become more dependent upon intellectual power
• Outsourcing non-core operations
Uncertainty, Volatility, and Opportunity • Volatility: Increasing supply chain complexity and change
• Rapid supply change adjustments
• Short product cycles, many parts
• Multiple competing suppliers
• Just in time sourcing
Uncertainty, Volatility, and Opportunity • Volatility: Price hedging and hot money flows
– Highly variable input prices and asset bubbles
– Currency foreign exchange fluctuations
– Rapidly changing buyer demand
Uncertainty, Volatility, and Opportunity IT Opportunity to reduce risk
• Improve capital efficiency
– Economic slowdown and lower market sentiment
– Price hedging and hot money flows
• Innovation to raise agility
– Shifting demographics and new work patterns
– Increasing supply chain complexity and change
Cost Optimization and Innovation Strategy
To improve capital efficiency and raise agility
1. Choose leaner technologies
2. Re-discover and optimize IT best practices
3. Leverage new business models
Choose leaner technologies
• What is “Lean Software”? – Designed to do just enough
• No muda: waste code or unnecessary functionality
• Only focus on real requirements – not feature checklists
– Agile iterative development starting from Minimum Viable Product • Decide as late as possible, Code as fast as possible
– Modular so that unnecessary code isn’t even loaded – Eliminate duplicate or conflicting code (unfortunately
a typical result of M&A)
• Agility depends on good architecture
Choose leaner technologies
• Lower resource use – Minimize infrastructure growth and footprint
• Easier and simpler to use throughout lifecycle – Lower development and operation team spend
– configuration-based models, use open standard programming models
• Future-proof and lower technical debt – Lower startup and maintenance cost
– Add components as required
– Easy to integrate (internally and externally)
Cost Optimization and Innovation Strategy
To improve capital efficiency and raise agility
1. Choose leaner technologies
2. Re-discover and optimize IT best practices
3. Leverage New Business Models
Re-discover and optimize IT best practices
• Integrated business rules
• Analytics, monitoring, internal “billing”
• Data Volumes
– NoSQL, MapReduce
– Complex Event Processing
• Service orientation
• Identity & security management

Cost Optimization and Innovation Strategy
To improve capital efficiency and raise agility
1. Choose leaner technologies
2. Re-discover and optimize IT best practices
3. Leverage new business models
Leverage New Business Models – on premise
• Ensure costs are proportional to actual production benefits received
• Eliminate license terms and fees which could lead to: – Shelf-ware
– Evaluation delays
– Project commencement delays
• Protect against single-vendor lock-in
• Compliment your team with expert support services
This is what WSO2 means by “open source”

WSO2 Value Proposition • Address obstacles to enterprise middleware
project speed, success, ROI Simplify…
• technology acquisition • installation • development • adapting platform to specific needs • obtaining expertise • integration & interoperability • adding new capabilities • addressing unforeseen needs • deployment to achieve desired
QoS
Obtain… • freedom from lock-in and license
risks • low resource demands • high performance and utilization
rates • world-class production support
system and SLA • high ROI with cost structure
aligned with actual production value obtained
• confidence in technology evolution and innovation roadmap
How we achieve that value
• Industry-leading Innovation • Modern, from scratch, design, implementation • Complete, consistent platform • OSGi componentization model • Lean, high-performance code • Cloud nativity
• Open source edge • Apache open-source licensing – only! • Business model aligns with production support (e.g. successful
production deployment.) • World-class support services tailored to customer/project needs. • Accelerated development through open, transparent model and
leveraging open source community.
WSO2 SOA Platform
WSO2’s Open Source Edge Unique Support Model: “We build it. We support it. We manage it. We improve it.”
● No Support Engineers
● No Project Managers
● No Multi-Year Roadmap
● WSO2 Support Offerings: QuickStart, Development Support & Production Support
● Open Development Methodology: Customer-driven, agile, open and effective product engineering & development
● High levels of customer involvement in product development & evolution
● Open public mailing lists – [email protected]
Leverage New Business Models – in the cloud
• Balance on-premise => IaaS => PaaS => SaaS
– Efficiencies increase as you go up this chain
– Control decreases as you go up this chain
• Less customization possible
• More risk of lock-in
• Choose appropriate mode for IaaS, PaaS
– Public, private, hybrid, cloud-bursting

Enterprise IT in 2015+
Cloud Native • Distributed/Dynamically Wired (works properly in the cloud)
• Supports deploying in a dynamically sized cluster • Finds services across applications even when they move
• Elastic (Uses the cloud efficiently) • Scales up and down as needed • Works with the underlying IaaS
• Multi-tenant (Only costs when you use it) • Virtual isolated instances with near zero incremental cost • Implies you have a proper identity model
• Self-service (in the hands of users) • De-centralized creation and management of tenants • Automated Governance across tenants
• Granularly Billed and Metered (pay for just what you use) • Allocate costs to exactly who uses them
• Incrementally Deployed and Tested (seamless live upgrades) • Supports continuous update, side-by-side operation, in-place testing and
incremental production
