Virtual Infrastructure Access can help some clients save around 40% on IT total cost of ownership (TCO). In this case, client payback on Virtual Infrastructure Access project costs is realized within one year.

- 4. This document is intended for IBM See Legal Notes for important notices and information. © 2008 IBM Corporation VIA MODULE IBM Blade Center E with VM Ware software will be running in the Blade Center with 4 exclusive Servers - Hosting up to 125 Systems with 20GB Storage Per PC on RAID 1 Thin Clients are connected to the Network – each Thin Client is connected to a Monitor & Keyboard & Mouse (every thin client has its Monitor – only 3 are shown here for spacing purpose)
- 8. Where these savings are coming from… Averages to 63% savings across these End User Areas Area Typical Savings Rationale Help desk 50% Removes the need for password resets. Simplified environment reduces complexity and support calls. Moves, adds, and changes typically do not require IT support. Network engineering and support 50% All traffic is over HTTPS. No need. for complex firewall configuration and administration. Desk-side PC support 90% Desk-side support, other than for hardware failures, is eliminated. Security and user administration 75% Administration is policy-based and authorized users can be allowed to administer their own entitlements (rule-based, delegated admin). Software distribution staff 50% Packaging happens once for servers and desktops. Software distribution is gradually replaced w/SW publishing. Desktop engineering 75% The need for complex desktop engineering is eliminated though the combination of wrapping applications and moving to a central model. Security engineering 50% Security is simplified through the introduction of a standard solution for encryption, single sign on and authentication.

Editor's Notes
- Looking at the big picture, there are several forces that further complicate PC management: Desktop Managers are forced to deal with issues such as: The exploding number of PC configurations and system images Providing access to an increasingly distributed workforce The rising costs of maintaining PCs Limited control of employee home PCs, as well as partner, and contractor-owned PCs Ask yourself: How many different PC (desktop and laptop) configurations does your IT team manage? How do you ensure all employee PCs are appropriately patched? How many people in your enterprise need safe access to corporate resources? Where are they located? How do telecommuters and partners access corporate resources? Do you have to provision computing environments to outsourced or offshore resources? How do you enforce compliance with privacy regulations? How do you protect sensitive corporate data on employee PCs? Distributed workforce Increasing use contractors, guest workers, and telecommuters Off shoring and outsourcing of business functions Need to access data and applications from anywhere Rising cost of PC management OS and application deployment Back up and recovery Creating flexibility with control Hardware management complexity Multiple makes and models Unending hardware upgrade cycles Configuration changes Managing end of lease Limited control of PCs Patch compliance Security of sensitive data Compliance with regulations (SOX, HIPAA)
- Zero in on real Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) reductions: Eliminate nearly all support tasks: maintenance, installation, data migration, desk-side, software support Simplify image management, client and host hardware upgrades Consider more than moving PCs to a centralized location: Virtualization at the blade level can create significant reduction in the infrastructure costs Need to find a stateless server model enabling optimization of server power and capacity Reduce network bandwidth consumption and latency between client applications and servers Improve Security measures: Radically increase physical security with stateless end user devices Help minimize clutter, power and HVAC requirements, and noise on the desktop Eliminate the virus entry point at the client desktop Strategize for a resilient desktop disaster recovery plan : Move your desktop disaster recovery dilemma into the data center Solve your end user data backup and recovery problem Virtualization at the blade level has the potential for densities between 30 and 100 users per server creating significant reduction in the infrastructure costs. Need to find a stateless server model enabling re-purposing of server power during low use hours, or leveraging server capacity for potential “follow the sun” user support Reduce network bandwidth consumption and network latency between client applications and servers
- And don’t forget the potential for savings in reduced power requirements. A traditional desktop uses about 225 watts. If you have a couple thousand of them that can easily add up to 450,000 watts or more. Replace that traditional desktop configuration with 20 BladeCenters at 4000 watts each (80,000 watts total) and a couple thousand thin clients at 20 watts each (40,000 watts total) and you are down to about 120,000 watts total ... a 73% savings. Many clients will find this level of power savings provides a significant TCO-based motivation for moving to a virtualized client environment.
- And don’t forget the potential of saving in reduced power requirements. A traditional desktop uses about 225 watts. If you have a couple of thousand of them that can easily add up to 450 kilowatts or more. Replace that with 20 BladeCenters at 4000 watts each and a couple thousand thin clients at 20 watts each and you are down to about 120 kilowatts... a 73+% savings.... or 172 watts per hour per desktop. Customers will find that power savings will be a significant factor in overall TCO savings (increasing in importance as energy costs continue to rise).
