mapping out your journey to converged infrastructure
DESCRIPTION
Converged Infrastructure implies the ability to pool resources, streamline management, and in the end, the ability to more rapidly and flexibly provision data center infrastructure and services. If planned and executed well, convergence not only lowers complexity for customers but also enables shared-service model of computing - path towards private cloud. This presentation provides the blueprint for developing a detailed plan based on objective analysis and capabilities most relevant for converged infrastructure adaption within your data center. You will hear how HP Converged Cloud Capability Model speeds-up the planning phase across people, process and technology. (presented at HP Discover, Las Vegas, 2013)TRANSCRIPT

Challenges and questions Lots of challenges: • Rate of change is increasing
• New technologies, new IT delivery models
• Aging data centres and IT
• Increasing business demands
• Lack of alignment with the business
And even more questions: • What will happen in the future?
• How can we understand what is important ?
• How can we prepare for all this?
• What action should we take ?

IDC Survey – Business Value of Convergence Methodology
Survey to evaluate the business value increase that enterprises achieve as they advance their convergence maturity. • “Work”: Throughput the data center
pushes through - by assessing the network capacity to / from the data center.
• “Converged-ness”: The percentage of the data center resources that administrators can deploy from a pooled collection.
• “Cost”: Annual budget for equipment hardware, infrastructure software and IT infrastructure administration staff.
• Results are presented in three categories:
• IT labor costs per GB throughput – total data center throughput divided by the IT labor to manage all data center operations
• Mean time to deploy new services such as a new application
• Infrastructure and application availability

CI-CM Domains
Moving from dedicated hardware, software, database, network and infrastructure applications to more cost-effective pooled, shared, and automated resources.
Domains
Addresses resources used to plan, manage and improve infrastructure service delivery from project-based tools and information to standard, integrated tools / processes and information collection for end-to-end management
aligned to the business.
Technology & Architecture
IT Operations Management
Culture & IT Staff Management Tools &
Processes
Addresses the IT organizational structure, roles, responsibilities, work environment, etc. to move from technology-oriented to a more service-oriented, business centric environment.
Moving IT as a cost center (constrained to annual allocated budget) to an IT governance model that provides real time alignment of supply and demand with a consumption-based funding model.

CI-CM Stages of Capability • Automatic management and reallocation of infrastructure based on business process needs • IT becomes a trusted business innovation partner
• Hybrid Delivery - Infrastructure is offered as a combination of public and private cloud environments Flow management tooling allows the customer to combine multiple sources for IT capability into one integrated usage of IT resources
• Service Enabled - Infrastructure offered as a service, with tiered service levels, supported by service centric integrated IT processes.
• Standardized - Standard technologies and architectures, standard management tools and processes, technology-based with Rationalized technologies and architecture, rationalized management tools and processes, with cross functional IT infrastructure expert teams.
• Silo - Project-based decisions and dedicated infrastructure, Ad Hoc management tools and processes, technology-based IT organization, cost center managed to budget. This delivery model can be found in most of IT organizations. It’s the traditional IT delivery model. Ca
