  9. The Dream at the Data Center • Modern Infrastructure • Faster Response • Platform for Improved Tools • More Reliable • Lower Cost • Better Application Development Processes • More Reliable, Higher Quality Tools • Better Documentation • Lower Total Lifecycle Costs

  10. Between The Dream and Reality Lies the Nightmare…. H. S. Thompson

  11. Potential Nightmares • Large Scope: 200+ legacy servers to Data Center • First for the Forest Service • CIO Has a Plan… • “No Battle Plan Survives it’s First Contact with the Enemy” • CIO Changing Strategy • Moving Target • 12/31/2009 Legacy Servers…

  12. Potential Nightmares… • More & More Hoops • Resources Needed for Migration • Top Down Approach, especially Security • 80% Solution Applied to FIA

  13. Data Center Status

  14. FIA Status • FIADB/FIDO Migration • Started Migration 2007 • Learning Experience for All Parties • TPO Submitted in 2008 • Started NIMS-CS in February • More to Come

  15. Reason for Hope… FIA-CIO Joint Project Team Chartered 2005: • “The migration plan will recognize the requirement that FIA must maintain their ability to accomplish day to day data processing work throughout the migration.” • “Old technology will not be turned off until new solutions have been thoroughly tested and implemented.” • “FIA expertise will be used in formulating solutions.”
