First a little maths…
£ Cost = Service Description + Technology + SLA
Where:
• The Service Description is the Business definition or functional requirement
• The Technology is the software and / or hardware used
• The SLA is the availability, recovery times or the fix times etc of the service required
![Page 4: Upgrade services, hosting & business continuity Simpler is better: Delivering IT as a Service John Allen: Business Development Manager Anix Managed Services.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/551419f9550346e2488b54a0/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Statement…
All IT functions in mid to large organisations need to become more focused on the delivery of Business orientated IT services and less focused on the individual components or traditional IT “work streams”.
Whether explicitly or implicitly, organisations increasingly need to acquire these services in a way that the business can forecast, or plan, depending on the activities or market pressures at that time.
Increasingly this means that an organisation needs to buy a complete service from a service provider.
That service provider is potentially any function or organisation who can meet the requirements. That service provider is You!

Why the Service Provider Model
• Service Delivery not Support Services• Business “Service(s)” Definitions• Discrete Services With Individual SLA and Budget• Absolute not “Accurate” Cost Forecasting• Costs based on the Actual Business Activity• Ownership / Avoidance of root cause issues• Simplification / Avoidance of support
![Page 8: Upgrade services, hosting & business continuity Simpler is better: Delivering IT as a Service John Allen: Business Development Manager Anix Managed Services.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/551419f9550346e2488b54a0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
What Is Business Continuity?
"an holistic management process that identifies potential impacts that threaten an organisation and provides a framework for building resilience and the capability for an effective response that safeguards the interests of its key stakeholders, reputation, brand and value creating activities.“
Business Continuity Institute 2007
Or
“The ability to keep your business activities functioning in any event. A sort of, who does what, where and how..?”
John Allen 2007
![Page 9: Upgrade services, hosting & business continuity Simpler is better: Delivering IT as a Service John Allen: Business Development Manager Anix Managed Services.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/551419f9550346e2488b54a0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What does this mean in IT terms?
Who Spends the most on business continuity?
Who can recover their operations faster?
Who is most affected by x hours of lost business?
Which leads us to DR…
![Page 10: Upgrade services, hosting & business continuity Simpler is better: Delivering IT as a Service John Allen: Business Development Manager Anix Managed Services.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070305/551419f9550346e2488b54a0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Disaster Recovery is only a part of BCM
…but as IT providers it is the most important part that we can influence.
Who Spends the most on disaster recovery?
Who can recover their ticketing/boarding services in the event of a:
Total System outage?
Data centre loss?
IT security breach?Which leads us to HA…

Should High Availability be a part of DR?
Campus clustering is dead! Long live dispersed clustering:

Multi-site High Availability
• HA DR is increasingly a Viable option
– Low cost, High speed connectivity
– High performance data replication
– Load balanced Web Services Architectures e.g. Lawson

Multi-site High Availability
• HA DR is increasingly a Viable option
– Low cost, High speed connectivity– High performance data replication– Load balanced Web Services Architectures e.g. Lawson
• HA DR enables: – Improved service levels– Online Software and hardware Maintenance– Optimised Infrastructure– Improved Business Continuity
• Load balanced HA DR also enables:– Real time fail over– Continuous Computing– Full Use of IT Assets (requires intimacy between Application & Infrastructure)

Service Provider Building Blocks
• Define the service– Definition is based on the Business Requirements
• Offer the relevant SLA– RPO/RTO, Response Times, Up times General Availability
• Shortlist the technology– Very different technology can provide the same service but with different
costs or availability.
• Define the Price– Service dictates price or price dictates service
• Calculate Flexibility– How much variance do you need within the service
• Define Units– Per user, Transaction, GB, TB, per Hour etc
£ Cost = Service Description + Technology + SLA

How do you become a service provider
• 1: Create Unit model from scratch• 2: Buy in specific Infrastructure Layers• 3: Buy in specific Applications or Services• 4: Wholesale Outsource
• Challenge your Suppliers• Demand REAL cost per unit models• Evaluate activities for selective services• Buy as your Business requires• Buy what you ACTUALLY need
– Avoid excess, budget for all costs
