Barriers to Platform Adoption

Bringing New Platforms Online

How do I get this stuff Up and Running?

Tools: Bare Metal Restore

• • • • Multiple Steps – Image Capture -> Image Deploy -> System Configuration > Pray… Error Prone NOT Cross Platform Downtime throughout the process

Tools: “Free” Migration Tools

• • • • Extra Manual steps – SysPrep  Lack of Network Optimization Minimal Error Logging Single Platform Support

PlateSpin

Migrate

A More Complete Solution

PlateSpin

Migrate

Fully automated migrations over the network.

Physical Servers Blade Servers Virtual Hosts Workload Decoupled from Hardware Decouple workload from host infrastructure Live peer-to-peer workload migration Migration testing 8

Image Archives Sync-up prior to cut-over

Flexible Migrations

etc...

• • • • • Hypervisor agnostic, migrate to ESX, Hyper-V, Xen Hardware agnostic, migrate to bare metal Multi-OS support Migrate over LAN or WAN Fully Automated Solution

Accelerate New Platform ROI

Get There Faster

Server Migration projects are time consuming. Challenges

Manual rebuild process 5-7 hrs per server Which workloads/applications go where?

Single core onto Multi-core?

Solution

100% automated Less than 1 hour migration time Integrated planning Hardware independent

PlateSpin Migrate ROI

200 Server Refresh Migration time: 7 hours per server avg.

200 x 7 =

1400 hours 175 days 8 man months!

x $80hr =

$112,000

With PlateSpin Migration Time: 3 hours per server avg.

200 x 3 =

600 hours

3 Concurrent migrations =

200 hours 25 days 1 month!

x $80hr =

$16,000 License Cost approx. = $50,000 Total Project Cost = $50k + $16k 12

ROI/Delta = $46,000

Customer Success - Essent

The Customer

– The leader in the Dutch energy market – Turnover of EUR 6.4 billion in 2006 – Annual IT budget of EUR 130 million – 12,000 employees and 800+ IT staff – 700 servers and growing 100 per year – A mix of virtual and physical moves – Moving from HP to IBM hardware

The Challenge

– Mandate to shrink 3 datacenters into one – Wanted to standardize IT infrastructure – Focus on minimizing risk

The Solution

– Looked at VMware Converter initially – no P2P, V2P – PlateSpin Recon to monitor the existing estate for new hardware planning and consolidation – PlateSpin Migrate for 260 migrations (P2P and P2V) across sites

Results

• “If we hadn’t gone with PlateSpin, it would have taken a team of 25 half a year to build all the applications in the new data center, an estimated cost of over EUR 3 million. • With PlateSpin, we were able to migrate all of our servers in one month with a team of less than eight people. • The PlateSpin solution brings a high return of investment. In retrospect, after seeing the time and cost savings, we would have been willing to pay a lot more for the PlateSpin solution.”
