  2. Tivoli z Update Agenda • Customer Challenges • Tivoli z Strategic focus • IT Service Management & z • Tivoli z Portfolio Update • Summary

  3. 78% of CEOs believe integrating business and technology is fundamentalfor innovation IT Organizations FaceTremendous Pressureon Many Fronts • Complexity:Resources, silos, composite applications • Change: Market demands, workloads, service levels • Compliance: Regulations, security, audit capabilities • Cost:IT infrastructure and management Source: 2006 IBM Global CEO Survey

  4. Application development & support labor has dropped from 48% to 34% of IT Labor spend over previous 4 years. 70% of 2005 CIO Budget is Labor Decrease in Efficiency as IT Spending Shifts to Operations Labor Trend: IT Efficiency and Effectiveness are Waning Source: Tivoli Commissioned IDC Study 1Q05 Source: Gartner Group, IT Spending & Staffing surveys 70% of CIO budget is Labor • 70% of CIO budget is labor • Operations labor will be 73% of CIO labor budgets by 2008 • Application development will decline at -10% CGR to 2008 • $325B in operations labor by 2008

  5. SOA & Enterprise Transformation IT Service Management Information On Demand Information as a Competitive Differentiator Information to Enable Innovation Information as a Strategic Asset Information to Manage the Business Data to Run the Business Value of the Mainframe Drive the Value of Hardware, Operating System, Middleware and Tools Create new business value by transforming all forms of data into trusted information in business context — thereby reducing risk and improving business operations over the information lifecycle. Enable SOA, delivering business flexibility through integration and transformation within and beyond the enterprise-core systems, applications, data and skills to be reused in end-to-end, cross-platform solutions to create new business processes and end-user applications Continually adjust the end-to-end zSeries IT service management infrastructure to deliver high-performance in a volatile business climate zSeries Platform Readiness Drive the Value of Individual Middleware Components

  35. Z Security Issues • Regulatory Compliance • We don’t have the time or staff to perform regulatory audits on all of our critical systems • More and more difficult to adhere to security standards • Security Administration • We have over 25,000 employees and they all need personal access to data on zSeries • Each individual needs specific access rights and we must be 100% accurate • Intrusion Detection and Management • We can’t get immediate notification of misuse within our system and what changes were made • Intrusion detection is a 24x7 sleepless job. But don’t have the capacity or funding • Centralized Security and Staffing • Our data is spread across 20 zSeries systems and each have unique security requirements • Our internal skill set is declining and need to quickly train a new generation of zSeries security personnel “A bank stands or falls with its security system. We cannot afford a single error. Not only the mainframes, but even more importantly the security system of the mainframes must be faultless before they go into production.” Thom Snels, senior security supporter, ABN AMRO

  36. Top of Mind zSeries Security Issues • Quote from Ray Jones, VP zSeries Software Sales: • “zSeries today offers the best security of any server environment in the industry. • Despite this, customers tell us that they have two major concerns: • First, how do they retain and grow zSeries security skills – it’s hard to learn the tricks of the trade about administering zSeries security. • Second, how can they step up to the challenge of ever-increasing corporate governance and regulations, and make risk management more operational?” • Source: IBM zTalk Radio, zSeries Security July 2005

  43. IT Financial Managementhas become a topic of increasing focus and an important issue for CXOs when aligning IT with the Business Goals Align IT with the Business … Business Strategy Investment Service Quality Governance Financial Management Asset Management & Compliance Optimization Resource Accounting & Chargeback

  44. Tivoli IT Asset Management Is Strategically Focused on managing and controlling IT costs and compliance • Auto-discovers installed software inventory on IT hardware and collects hardware data • Creates product use activity information by monitoring executions and creating a log file. • Allow integration or “linking” of inventory and use activity information to existing contracts and licenses • Provides analytics to identify ways to control IT spending, optimize consolidation and upgrades, negotiate better vendor agreements and reduce contract compliance risk • Provides financial reporting on invoice reconciliation, depreciation, currency exchange and amortization IBM Tivoli Usage & Accounting Manager ITUAM) Is Strategically focused on collecting existing data about the use of IT resources and allocating those costs to the services that IT provides to the business • Collects usage data about IT resources like OS, database applications and storage devices from existing log files • Allows clients to take the collected data associate “per unit” costs and calculate the costs associated with IT Services • Creates report and charts on IT resource usage by service or department • Supports the creation of Service and Department budgets for IT resource utilization • Can feed data in the client’s accounting ledger and billing system for chargeback IBM Tivoli Application Dependency Discovery Manager (TADDM) Is Strategically focused on discovering and maintaining Application level dependencies, pertinent configuration data, both current and historic • Agentless discovery of networks and dist servers to collect pertinent application and configuration data from the discovered objects. Limited vendor software product discovery. • Creates application dependency maps, ranging from business application interrelationships all the way down to network diagrams, based on applications running at the time of discovery. • Allows for the use of historical data to display changes made to discovered nodes as a means to explaining operational issues. • Allows for comparison of multiple like configured objects to determine differences in hardware/software configuration that may be contributing to operational issues. IT Financial Management

  45. The Challenge and the Solution - Align IT Software Spending with Business Priorities IBM Capability Data collectors for IT infrastructure can review consumption across multiple dimensions Who is consuming which IT resources? Costing engine assigns cost to resource usage What is the cost of those resources, including those that are shared? Costing engine associates usage costs to consumers of IT resources How should IT allocate cost for chargeback, ROI, costing analysis, and billing? All three questions help align IT spending with business priorities

  46. Usage & Accounting Manager (ITUAM) IT Service Level Advisor Adjustments for Service Level Violations Cost reporting in SLA Reports go to: • Cost Centers • Departments • Various slices for financial analysis Usage & Accounting Manager IT Chargeback and Transaction Billing Tivoli IT Asset Management Solution Dedicated Hardware & Software $ ITUAM Data Collectors ITUAM Data Collectors Tivoli Decision Support for z/OS Batch TSO, Transaction Processing, Database and Storage Unix, Linux, Oracle, Storage, Middleware, Applications and other third party hardware and software Windows, Exchange, Notes, SQL Server, MS Disk Storage, Middleware and Applications pSeries and xSeries servers will come with this capability prepackaged (Sept 2006) IBM Confidential

  47. What software do I have? Auto-Discovery of Software Assets End-to-end Tivoli License Compliance Manager To what extent is this software used? Is this different from what was purchased? Usage & Activity Monitoring Tivoli License Compliance Manager Tivoli Contract Compliance Manager How much is each software asset costing me now and in the near future? Contract Management Comparing Usage to Contracts Tivoli Contract Compliance Manager The Challenge and the Solution – Align IT Software Spending with Business Priorities Tivoli’s Unique Capability All three questions must be answered to align IT spending with Business Goals
