Significant Cost Saving Opportunity for Server Management Automation
Data derived from Microsoft “Spotlight on Cost” Server Study 2009
Opportunity to use same tools and practices from desktop management in server environment
Automated Server DeploymentAutomated PatchAutomated Back and restore
Average automation practice adoption is only 30%
Automation | Optimization | Simplification
Research shows opportunity to save an average of $2160 per server per year
Automated server management not widely adopted
Automate Support for Server Compliance
Lower cost of supporting and showingserver compliance in the datacenter
Provide comprehensive compliancedata and remediation across datacenterfabric
Deliver unified, critical data for security, compliance, and management to operations staff

“In today’s world, it’s important
to have documented, followed
processes for compliance
auditing, including security and
audit logs within Windows.
[System Center’s] capabilities
allow us to prevent unauthorized
access attempts

Faster response with alertsdirectly to operational staffScale monitoring and enforcement to datacenterLower cost of audit andreporting requirements
Consolidate Servers Through Virtualization
Maximize use of datacenter resources through consolidation and management
Establish pools of resources to enable dynamic management
Lower cost of delivering agility to respond to business requirements

Optimization
We expect to consolidate an
additional 75 servers using
Hyper-V, which will lead to
$325,000 annually. [With System
Center] …we’ve reduced the time
spent on physical to virtual from
all night to an hour”
