ERP Customer Pain Points
Economic headwinds have place more financial scrutiny on big, complex, difficult-to-manage ERP/CRM/SCM product sets. Cost and complexity has more organizations looking at outsourcing and service based computing models.
Achieving business outcomes with ERP/CRM/SCM application are too time consuming and difficult. Customers feel they have a Ferrari in the garage but when we take it out on to the open road they can’t get it out of first gear.
Many ERP/CRM/SCM applications architectures were put in place ahead of the Y2K issue of the late 1990s and is now showing its age. Access to capital is tight and few can justify spending it on ERP upgrades when compared to growing list of business needs.
High cost and complexity
Risky Upgrade Cycle
Slow time to value and
limited agility.
Data quality and consistency
Business need for analytics requires a solid ERP/CRM/SCM foundation for data, which means improved data quality, availability and consistency. Less time on data acquisition and more time on analysis.

SAP, the cloud and mobile applications
Heavy investments in ERP have already been done, so there’s no appetite to spend more on ERP applications Prevailing thought
in the marketplace
Dell POV
To enable SAP
Organizations that own SAP can harness the power of standardize business processes with integration of newer, lightweight, mobile applications
The underlying, fixed capacity infrastructure must be modernized with flexible, agile, elastic computing power that quickly responds to business needs for innovation
Dell’s portfolio of SAP Modernization Services is designed specifically for organizations who must engage a mobile economy

Trend ---- Workloads in the Cloud Source: IDC Enterprise Platforms Survey, Jan 2010
ERP Workloads (Business Processing) will remain in private clouds configurations in customer controlled premise.
Decision support likely to remain private due to data needs & security
Hybrid clouds will emerge with ERP “bolt-on” solutions e.g. CRM, SRM, etc.

Replication
Superior infrastructure: Minimizes the risk of aging data centers. SAP Cloud solutions enable an incremental path for infrastructure renewal. No need for a “rip and replace” approach
Industry standards: Widely adopted standards ensure long-term viability of the architecture and more flexible options for application selection and configuration
Cost-effective: Leveraging a private cloud environment for peak and non-production loads saves costs
Agility: Cloud can enable more automated and rapid deployment of different environments. This benefits dynamic test and production environments as well as improving disaster recovery. We want to throw SAP landscapes around like they are nickels!

Recent Proof of Concept Large Public University
Situation • Legacy Data Center on campus
with limited capacity to support online education initiatives.
• Stranded capacity on proprietary SAP Infrastructure designed for peak load that occurs 4 weeks per year.
• High demand for SAP sandbox instances to support enhancements needed by the business.
• High sustain cost due to specialized UNIX resources.
• High cost for system infrastructure needed for disaster recovery.
Results
60% of SAP Non-Production &
Disaster Recovery landscapes targeted for Dell On-Demand Cloud featuring automated, self-service provisioning of sandbox environments in a pay per use model.
20% targeted reduction in SAP
application support cost over 3 years, including migration costs from proprietary UNIX to x86 platform.

SAP TCO Reductions with Dell’s Approach
An independent TCO analysis published jointly by SAP and Dell illustrated that SAP solutions running on the VIS (Private Cloud) architecture can dramatically increase efficiency and reduce operating and capital expenses. The independent study cited:
• Up to 20% reduction in total cost of ownership utilizing hybrid cloud architecture
featuring self service provisioning, utility computing and pay per use functions.
• Up to 17% reduction in overall hardware and software investments due to resource pooling, capacity management and standardized platforms.
• Up to 24% lower Implementation costs due to reduced planning and design requirements, self service provisioning of virtual & physical machines, and the use of pre-configured templates.
• Up to 24% lower upgrade expenditures due to quick and easy provisioning of test
and training systems, and contingency planning and fallback methods.
