Today’s organizations strive to fuel business growth by unlocking the value of technology

This growth-driven approach pressures IT teams to:

• Provide an agile, cost-effective infrastructure that can enable more nimble business processes and models with flexible, scalable operations

• Keep the infrastructure up and running, mitigating

• Keep the infrastructure up and running, mitigating disruptions to the business

• Control costs and have greater transparency to the budgetary and operational impacts of decisions

• Mitigate financial, operational and customer marketplace risk

• Demonstrate how their decisions deliver value back to the business

Clients are facing inefficiencies in their traditional data centers, making it difficult for them to meet business demands

� Common challenges with traditional server environments include:

• Low utilization of servers• Having to dedicate a substantial number of servers

within a typical IT environment to handle peak loads• Finding instant access to available IT infrastructure


• Finding instant access to available IT infrastructure resources (software packages and platforms) to meet unexpected loads from new business initiatives

• Extensive, arduous labor-intensive process to procure, build and maintain servers

• Long deployment times• Mismatched development/test and production environments • High operational and cost inefficiencies due to lack

of standardization

New technologies such as cloud computing can help clients transform their infrastructure to support business growth

Investing in cloud can help you:

• Reduce operational, infrastructure and startup costs• Speed time to market through increased efficiency

and automation • Scale operations to meet market dynamics


• Scale operations to meet market dynamics and business strategy

• Reduce complexities in managing virtualized environments

• Improve security of business and infrastructure functions• Eliminate downtime and deliver on application service-

level agreements (SLAs)
