• Islands of technologies (OS/architecture dependent)

• Partial consolidation, dedicated server and/or application stacks

• Internet enabled• Multi-OS, multi-architecture &

multi-vendor environments• Cost/complexity improved

primarily via infrastructure consolidation and technology standardization

• Service-centric IT: infrastructure, apps and IT delivered as a service
