WHY CLOUD

The Workload Automation Opportunity is Hybrid

50% of workloads will run in some form of cloud by 2020

B U S I N E S S O B J E C T I V E S

• Meet IT policy and regulatory compliance requirements

• Ensure application performance and service levels

• Optimize cost efficiencies 2017 2020

Planning The Journey

#DATACENTERWORLD | DATACENTERWORLD.COM

Migrationis a continuous

exercise

1. Assess

• Assess On-Premises Estate• Build a Data Driven Cloud Strategy• Negotiate a Contract

2. Migrate 3. Optimize

• Build a Migration Plan• Migrate & Cut Over• Consolidate & Decommission

• Enable Responsible Agility • Unlock Elasticity • Maximize Discounts w/o Sacrificing

Elasticity • Enable Real-Time Scaling

Cloud Journey


Optimization is NecessaryFull Stack

Understanding/Cloud Catalog Expertise

• Proper migration planning considers applications down to infrastructure

• Organizations must adapt to changing cloud catalog

Today’s Reality is Hybrid

• Few organizations are moving to the cloud all at once

• Teams must plan for migration while understanding what is needed on-premises

• Don’t allow legacy baggage to effect cloud initiative, optimize on-premises as you go

• In a world where resources are billed by the second organizations must optimize continuously

Planning is Continuous

• Constantly update plan based on application needs

• Quickly scope out subsets of your environment for migration

Building a Data Driven Hybrid Cloud Plan


Full Stack Understanding with Cloud Catalog ExpertiseDiscover Entire On-Premises Estate

• Understand the entire datacenter from the application down to the hardware

• Understand application relationship and dependencies

• Learn application resource requirements• Map licensing constraints and compliance

requirements

Discover Cloud Catalog• Discover entire cloud catalog, all

configuration options and services• Map on-premises workloads configurations


Planning is Continuous

• Continuously adapt to ever-changing cloud catalog• As the needs of the business change &

accelerate, organizations must be able to plan for cloud at any moment

• Organizations must be empowered to plan dynamically, in real-time, no longer a static exercise

• Update plans based on additions to cloud catalog & real-time application needs

Migration takes time, planning must be dynamic


Today’s Reality is Hybrid

Organizations must plan for cloud with on-premises in mind

• Understand on premises hardware requirements long term

• Budget accurately for cloud costs• Leverage compelling on-premises events

to kick start transformation • Clean up on-premises as you migrate to

streamline the cloud journey• Minimize double bubble

Compelling Data Center Events

ELA Renewals (Vmware,Orace, ETC…)

Hardware Refreshes


Optimization is Necessary

• Don’t bring legacy baggage & bad habits with you to the cloud

• Optimize before you migrate to ensure optimal cost from day 1

• Continuous optimization is needed for long-term success, aligning with proper partners to manage environment at scale is critical

• Bring cloud best practices back to the on-premises datacenter


How Do I Start?
