Hyper-Convergence De-mystified Francis O Haire Group Technology Director
The Cloud Era Is Well Underway Rapid Time to Market I deployed my application in five minutes. Fractional IT Consumption I use and pay for just what I need only when I need it. One-Click Simplicity No more time spent on low-level infrastructure management. Continuous Innovation New capabilities are available on a regular basis.
Why Not Cloud For All Workloads? Elastic Workloads Spin up and down resources on the public cloud 25% 75% Predictable Workloads Lower costs with private cloud infrastructure Balance Owning and Renting For Today s Enterprise Workloads
Bringing The Cloud To The Enterprise Datacenter Fractional Consumption Instant Delivery Invisible Operations Continuous Innovation Frictionless Control Balance Owning and Renting Data Access and Governance Tailored SLAs for Every App Choice and Freedom from Lock-in
