Budget Proposal

1. Budget Proposal • Datacenter Virtualization • What is Virtualization • Virtualization is the ability to utilize one physical server as several different servers. • The users, the network, and even the hardware sees the virtual server as if it were a different physical server. • Why would we want virtualization ?

2. Budget Proposal • Datacenter Virtualization • Why would we want virtualization • We took the concept of a single mainframe computer and broke it into multiple servers to add redundancy. • Different servers took on specific roles like email, file, print, or accounting to provide greater availability. • But servers are inherently under utilized. They sit and wait for something to do and then do it very fast, then sit and wait again. The information contained in this presentation is considered proprietary

3. Budget Proposal • Datacenter Virtualization • Why would we want virtualization • By virtualizing several servers on a single physical computer we’re able to get more bang for the buck because the server waits less. • If the physical server is capable of doing more and waiting less then we should stack as much work on a single server as possible. • Through virtualization we need fewer physical servers and that saves money.

5. Budget Proposal • Datacenter Virtualization Server virtualization on a single platform presents risks… If the server hardware fails then three servers are taken down. As a result only non-critical applications are currently virtualized One Server Two Servers One Server Three Servers Application Programs Application Programs Application Programs Application Programs Operating System O.S. O.S. O.S. Server Hardware The solution is to virtualize the entire datacenter… The information contained in this presentation is considered proprietary

11. Budget Proposal • Datacenter Virtualization • Virtualized Datacenter • Additional Equipment Needed • Dell PowerEdge R900 3 = 71,925 • VMware License 7 = 28,990 • Sales Tax .= 8,325 • Installation & Configuration .= 5,500 • Less buyback of existing equipment ~ (8,000) • _______ • Total Cost to Virtualize .= 106,740 The information contained in this presentation is considered proprietary

12. Budget Proposal • Datacenter Virtualization • Virtualized Datacenter • ROI • Total Cost to Virtualize .= <106,740> 11 Month ROI • Replace Servers Out of Warranty 113,261 2009 • Most warranties expired 2007 6,521 Additional • Replace Servers Out of Warranty 13,000 2010 19,521 Additional • Replace Servers Out of Warranty 26,000 2011 • 45,521 Additional • The cost to delay virtualization continues to escalate every year the decision is postponed • The risk of system failure increases by 20% every year • The benefits of virtualization, high availability, automatic load balancing, redundancy, and recovery remain unavailable.
