DON’T BE AFRAID

IT modernization is not an option!
By 2015, 70% of application modernization projects
will entail fundamental and complete shifts in technologies
and infrastructure.
Reasons why:
• Cost pressures, generational changes in IT staff and increased
demand for IT responsiveness to the business
• Failure will push many commercial organizations or government
agencies to more reactive, dramatic and expensive decisions
when the existing applications no longer can be maintained
• Customers and constituents will demand more personalized and convenient
access to services

IT modernization is not an option… it’s mandatory!
Technology everywhere turns business inside out

Cloud Computing Taxonomy
Azure
VM Role
• Deploy COBOL applications As-Is
• Leverage existing virtualization assets
• Relieve in-house infrastructure and processing
• Exploit cloud high-availability
• Minimize rehost risk and investment
15
Azure VM Role Benefits
• Self-contained Virtual Machine running within Azure
• OS and application infrastructure pre-loaded
• Hardware (e.g. NIC, CPU, memory) is virtualized
• Multiple instances of same VM can run simultaneously
• Attach external data storage as local disks
16
Azure VM Role
• A Disk is synonymous with a VHD
– Base OS
– Complete VM
– External storage
• An Image is captured from a configured VM
– Analogous to a snapshot
– Allows you create multiple VM’s from the same disk
