Evolution of Enterprise Computing

Chaos Network

PC clients overtake “green screen” terminals

Local and wide area data networks become pervasive

PCs begin to achieve a critical mass

Early client-server solutions emerge

IT begins to take notice

Data carriage passes voice carriage within enterprises

PC becomes more important tool than the desk phone

PC were brought into companies using department petty cash

One machine shared by many

IT not interested in support PC “toys”

Client-Server

Organize Manage

Networked Infrastructure Optimization

• Consolidated IT resources• Fully automated management• Dynamic resource usage• Business linked SLAs

• More Efficient & More Effective

Managing the TCO• Capital Expense– Hardware/Software

• Administrative Expense– IT deployment and support costs

• Operations Expense– End-user operations costs

VDI is a Force Multiplier that Benefits Task Workers’

Computing TCO• Capital Expense VDI = Traditional Desktop

• Administrative Expense 55% Improvement VDI < Traditional Desktop

• Operations Expense 20% Improvement VDI < Traditional Desktop

Aligning Computing Resources with End User Needs

• Create your “Center of Excellence” or Computing Guidance Committee

• Survey Department Heads and a Sampling of End-Users• Creating Computing Profiles (3 to 5)

– Applications– Data – Active/Passive Utilization– Mobility– Security– Ergonomics/Environmental Constraints

• Define your roadmap for technology migration

One Size Does Not Fit All• Task Worker (Administrators, Support Personnel)

– Lives in Microsoft Office– Data usage driven by email

• Knowledge Worker 1 (Sales Executive, Field Technician)– Road warrior – needs mobile computing resources– Utilizes office applications and proprietary applications (SFA)– Secure wireless data access– Ruggedized

• Knowledge Worker 2 (Research Analyst, LOB Executive)– Day extender – needs secure remote computing resources– Utilizes office applications and proprietary applications– Greater data usage than KW1

• Power User 1– Processor intensive applications (CAD/CAM, Engineering, Analytics)– High availability– High data usage– High security

• Power User 2– Multiple processor intensive applications (Command and Control, Trading Applications)– High availability, remote access– High data usage, multiple network access– High security– High visual data consumption (dual to quad monitors)
