• #26: IBM SmartCloud Services can meet enterprise client needs, from developing a cloud strategy to identifying cloud-ready workloads to migrating workloads as well as robust infrastructure and platform as a service functionality—all while featuring tight integration between technology and client objectives. IBM SmartCloud Services have been designed to meet client needs for tailored cloud architectures and management services replete with near-total reliability, security and client control. As you can see on this slide, the IBM SmartCloud Services delivery platform allows clients to choose from among a number of key enterprise capabilities to consume both infrastructure as a service and platform as a service capabilities.
• #28: Let’s take a closer look at the SmartCloud infrastructure services. Together, IBM and SoftLayer are expanding the IBM portfolio to build a converged offering built on open standards that can help reduce the complexity of cloud across private, public, and hybrid infrastructure as a service (IaaS) deployment models, freeing you to focus on business goals based on industry and workload instead of technical implementation. Our SoftLayer solutions include customized cloud servers, bare metal dedicated and virtual servers, cloud storage, networking and security services. SoftLayer’s unified platform spans virtual and physical, shared and dedicated servers and provides the ability to mix and match public, private and hybrid workloads in a fully integrated manner. It features a p owerful application programming interface (API) with a broad set of function calls. All services are tuned and controlled from a powerful single-pane portal. We are building on the success SoftLayer has seen in cloud-native workloads with Internet-native applications across: Online gaming Digital marketing Social networking and web apps Mobile applications High performance computing Big data and database management IBM SmartCloud Enterprise+ is an IBM-managed IaaS offering. This service has been designed to help drive business value and competitive advantage while reducing operational risk. It can offer a robust, security-rich, cost-effective multi-tenant private cloud infrastructure used for running production workloads (including commerce, analytics, SAP and Oracle applications). A broad range of architectural elements is provided, including hardware, hypervisor and isolation elements. Additional features include: • Higher levels of availability, reliability and service • Security, backup and resiliency services • Flexible configuration options to facilitate differentiation for competitive advantage • IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) processes such as image lifecycle management, asset and license management and configuration management • High-speed Tier 1 storage • A standard set of software images (operating system, middleware, databases) • Committed service level agreements aligned to business and usage requirements • Around-the-clock access to online support tools and live experts • Optional dedicated capacity for greater workload isolation and control For those who need DevOps within their cloud-based application development environment, we offer SmartCloud Application Services. It includes the Collaborative Lifecycle Management Service, which uses the IBM Rational® tool suite to allow users to coordinate software development activities throughout the application lifecycle, including requirements tracking, design, implementation, build, test and deployment. With DevOps built in, this offering can help your development and deployment teams to improve planning, collaboration and quality throughout the application lifecycle for faster delivery.
• #30: As cloud computing becomes pervasive, clear and well-defined, approaches that consistently deliver tangible results are emerging. These patterns of adoption meet the most pressing priorities of organizations today and can be grouped into the following four categories: Cut IT expense and complexity through data center optimization : addresses immediate needs for cutting IT expense and complexity while improving efficiency of service delivery. Typically these projects include significant elements of consolidation, virtualization, standardization and automation. Accelerate time to market by rapidly building, deploying, and managing new services : solve the need for accelerating time to market for new services and increasing profitability and competitive advantage. Typically these projects are characterized by standardized and automated provisioning of topologies for pre-defined workloads. Gain immediate access to enterprise-class software as a service is about gaining immediate access to enterprise class solutions while reducing risk and capital expense. Some services include collaboration, business process management, analytics, application management, email, integration, order-to-cash, business-to-business, development and testing, and service desk and marketing. Innovate business models by becoming a cloud service provider is for organizations that want to capitalize on new business models and revenue sources by offering cloud-based services to others. Examples range from core cloud service delivery to industry-specific integrated service management with storage, networking and security.
• #31: We offer data centers around the world for global reach.
• #35: You can add SAP Business Transformation and Consulting and or SAP implementation services to IBM SmartCloud for SAP Applications. This provides additional tuning and optimization of your SAP landscapes, making them run faster and with reduced errors. This translates into Lifecycle as a Service capability for faster time to innovation and reduced SAP total cost of ownership. You begin with rapid prototyping and immediate project starts based on pre-defined SAP solution templates on the IBM SmartCloud. Then you transition into production with IBM SmartCloud for SAP Applications. Finally, you can transition into application maintenance. Based on our experience with various client engagements, results can be impressive. (Results may vary by client.): Reduced implementation costs by up to 7 to 15 percent Accelerated time to value by up to 10 to 25 percent Continued savings of up to 20 to 30 percent over traditional hosting How are some of the benefits realized? Increased savings: Highly virtualized with a “pay-as-you-go” model to help reduce operational costs and internal resources   Speed of implementation: Significantly accelerate SAP infrastructure and basic operations and reduce project timelines by removing infrastructure and system barriers   Improved quality: Test systems built on large, recent copies of SAP production data Run multiple test systems in parallel with more rapid refreshes Mock production runs to simulate events (such as end of month) Improved data quality and data loads through more test runs On-demand training environments   Greater resiliency: Add computing resources on demand and ensure full capacity disaster recovery based on nonproduction secondary data center   Faster system responsiveness: Automatic dynamic load balancing and load shifting   Higher satisfaction from IT and business users: More rapid self-service interfaces with notification and agreed-upon rates to help avoid cost overruns The benefits of cloud are being realized across the entire application development lifecycle—touching every phase and enabling the design of new application models that are “born on the cloud.” These new cloud-based platforms have allowed for an explosion of applications across all of our industries. This is the result of our ability to now enable development environments in minutes, having the ability to literally disconnect the infrastructure from the application in the design of new application models, we see development teams having the ability to release or change applications in hours, allowing for new levels of productivity in the management of portfolios of applications.
