1 Retiring Technical Debt and leveraging existing Microsoft licenses on AWS Nick Abbott, Head of Microsoft Partners AWS APAC

2 Why AWS for Windows Workloads Experience & Innovation 10 Years running windows workloads Availability & Performance 55 Availability zones spanning 18 geographic regions Security, Compliance & Customer Obsession 52 Compliance Certifications FISMA, ITAR, EU Model Clauses SOC-1,2,3 FIPS, ISO Over 100 Service offerings Capable of delivering 80,000 With consistency IOPS/ instance 66 price reductions since 2006

3 Innovation for Windows on AWS instance types, 14 instance families different AMIs for Windows workloads Hyper-V support in SMS Windows Deep Learning AMI Application-consistent Snapshots through VSS NEW! Windows for Lightsail SQL Server 2017 Trusted Advisor.NET on Lambda checks for Windows X-Ray.NET SDK EC2 Systems Manager 774 Windows ISV listings in AWS marketplace Microsoft SharePoint 2016 (Marketplace) EC2 Dedicated Hosts (BYOL) Windows Server & SQL Server 2016 AWS Directory Service EC2 Run Command SAP instance on AWS 2012 Windows Server 2012 SQL Server 2012 Microsoft SCVMM Plug-in AWS Tools for Windows PowerShell Amazon RDS adds SQL Server Windows Server 2003 SQL Server 2005 Windows Server 2008 R2 SQL Server 2008 R2 EC2 Dedicated Instances (BYOL) Visual Studio Toolkit Microsoft SCOM plug-in release.net SDK WS 2008 & SQL Server Today

4 Enterprises modernize their existing technology and operating models, using cloud to become more agile, resilient, and secure, while lowering IT cost.

5 Why Customers Choose AWS For Windows Workloads They choose AWS for workloads that pull Windows Servers Breadth, depth, and global reach of AWS Better performance Superior uptime more reliable YoY (source: Gartner CloudHarmony) Largest ISV and partner ecosystem with cloud migration experience Innovation AWS services enable customers to build new products faster

7 How Do I Start To Retire My Tech Debt?

8 Options to Retire Technical Debt Legacy Windows Workloads Storage Dev and Test Licensing options SQL Server consolidation

9 Legacy Windows

10 Legacy Windows Migration (700 Servers) (Migrating Windows Server bit to AWS) On Premise Cost for 1 year: $ 4.4 M AWS Cost for 1 year: $ 1.8 M. (On Demand) Cost Saving of $ 2.6 M to return on migration and feed early modernization. On Premise Cost for 3 years: $ 13 M AWS Cost for 3 year: $ 3.7 M. (Reserved) Cost Saving to $ 9.3 M to feed full modernization Full Modernization Migrate to Cloud Early Modernization On Demand: Monitoring and Stabilizing 1 year Reserved: Optimization 3 years In AWS On Premise

11 Storage AWS vs On Premises (485 VMs) 3.7M 3 year TCO 56% reduction 1.6M On Premises AWS

12 Dev + Test workload 70% Reduction on spending By turning of instances when not in use Assuming 10 hours per day x 5 days per week

13 Microsoft Licensing Options on AWS Microsoft licenses on AWS License Included Instances Bring Licenses to AWS Default Tenancy Dedicated Tenancy Dedicated Instance Dedicated Host

14 EC2 Instances: Default and Dedicated Tenancy Default Tenancy Instances Dedicated Instances Dedicated Hosts Customer A Customer C Customer E Customer B Customer D Customer E Customer A Customer A Multi-tenant servers host instances for multiple customers AWS determines which host instances run on You pay per-instance Single-tenant servers host instances dedicated to one AWS account AWS determines which host instances run on You pay per-instance + hourly fee per region Single-tenant servers host instances dedicated to one AWS account Launch instances to same physical server through targeted placement You pay per-host, per-hour

15 Licensing: What Do You Really Need to Know?* License Included License Mobility BYOL (Bring your own license) On demand, Spot, or Reserved Instance Pay-as-you-go pricing Multi-tenant or Dedicated Instance AWS provides images Legacy versions supported Amazon manages the licensing and compliance Requires active Software Assurance Includes SQL Server, Remote Desktop Services, Exchange, SharePoint Does not include Windows Server, Windows Desktop and Microsoft Office Requires a verification process with Microsoft Customers import and use their own software Includes Dedicated Host and Dedicated Instances Software Assurance/license mobility not required Windows Server can be deployed on a Dedicated Host MSDN eligible for Dedicated Host or Dedicated Instance Customer is responsible for compliance with Microsoft Customers import and use own their software *AWS has Microsoft licensing specialists to help you.

16 Mixed Licensing Model is a Win-Win situation Use BYOL for core (slowly varying) infrastructure Large potential savings by reusing licenses & Use License Included for varying infrastructure Take advantage of AWS Auto Scaling Less management overhead, pay-as-you-go

17 License Mobility License Mobility through Software Assurance allows existing on premises licenses to be moved to AWS without additional fees. As such you: 01 Must maintain active Software Assurance 02 Complete a license verification process 03 Leverage the Software Assurance section of the Microsoft Product Terms

18 License optimization for BYOL Optimize CPUs Specify active cores and Hyper-Threading status when launching new EC2 instances Benefits: Specify a custom number of vcpus when launching new instances to save on vcpu based licensing costs. Disable Hyper-Threading Technology for workloads that perform well with single-threaded CPUs, like high-performance computing (HPC) applications.

19 SQL Server Consolidation

20 Enterprise or Standard Edition? Feature Enterprise Standard Backup/Restore Yes Yes Log shipping Yes Yes Always On Failover Cluster Instances (FCI) Always On Availability Groups Yes No Basic Availability Groups No Yes Clusterless Availability Group Yes Yes Containers Yes Yes Yes Yes

21 Region Miles Apart Low Latency Data Center / Region HA Asynch High Latency Data Center / Region DR Availability Zone Miles Apart Synch Availability Zone On Premises/other Cloud AWS (SQL on EC2 or RDS)

22 What we hear from our partners

23 Migrate Early Don t let legacy Software prevent a Cloud Migration Re-platform workload where available but don t let it slow the migration Re-hosting workloads enable rapid re-platforming/re-factoring post migration

24 Leverage Platform to Re-Host/Re-Platform Use On-Demand services to test upgrade scenarios Easier to test technical upgrades in the cloud AWS Database Migration Service/Server Migration Service

25 Save on Operating and Management Costs Don t over procure licensing and leverage on-demand Employ RDS where suitable to reduce operational overhead Use Management Tools such as AWS Systems Manager.
