What Really HappenedTypical Customer Comments

I'm running out of storage!

My backups aren't completing

Server performance is slow

I need DR!

I don’t know if my DR works

The users hate me

Do I need Cloud?

I need to keep my tapes for 7 years Tape is cheaper than disk

My environment is complex

It takes 8 weeks to provision hardware

My user want to connect IOS and Android

I have business & government compliance requirements

Staff are expensive

The CEO wants to go green

My data center is full

Virtualization is only for test/dev

I love your technology but can't afford it

Why IT Happened - Some Facts

Backup, DR is expensive –and it fails!

Archival policies most likely won’t work

Your Environment is growing

“Storage & Infrastructure Growth rates 50%- >80% per

annum”

Most organizations have no information about how data is created in their environment

•“Duplicate files >20%” / “Illegal files >15%”, “Dormant data 50-96%”

•“Duplicate block level data being backed up - >80%”

•“People think tape is cheap”

•“Most don’t have shared storage”

Budgeting issues

Wasting energy and paying for it

Only 10-15% of your CPU utilized

Misbalanced storage utilization

Your environment isn’t as secure as you’d like

Data leakage - Backup tapes un-recoverable - Backup used as archive

Data Centre Evolution –What Should Happen

Multi-Tenant

Dynamically provisioned & optimised infrastructure

Self-service

Hosted within safe confines of your own data centre

Definition:

Lower CAPEX & OPEX

Predictable costs

Faster time-to-market

Always on

Security & privacy of data

Business Benefits:

Reduce CostReduce Risk

Improve Service Levels

Data Centre EvolutionFrom Virtualization to ITaaS

Traditional Virtualised Data Centre
