Converged Infrastructure
Converged
Converged infrastructure packages multiple information technology
(IT) components into a single, optimized computing solution.
Advantages of converged infrastructure:•Lower costs by
• Lower capital expenses resulting from higher utilization, less cabling, and fewer network
connections
• Lower operating costs resulting from reduced labor via automated data center
management and a consolidating storage and network management infrastructure teams
•Increased IT agility by• Virtualizing IP and Fiber Channel storage networking
• Allowing for single console management

Customer Success: Sanford Health
Business Need
Headquartered in Sioux Falls, S.D., Sanford is the largest rural, not-for-profit healthcare system in the
U.S. It services 126 communities in eight states, including parts of South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Oregon and California, as well as locations in Ghana. It does so via a network of 35 hospitals, 140 clinic locations, nearly 1,400 physicians and more than 26,000
total employees. And this is just the current scope of the organization. Foell notes, “We announce new locations every year.”
Supporting much of the organization are several software packages, including an enormous electronic medical records (EMR) system, a fully deployed financial ERP suite, payroll and human resources applications, and a document-imaging system. These run on a variety of IBM Power Systems* servers,
including four 750s, two 720s, a 770 and a 740, which host both IBM AIX* and IBM i (the latter on the 720s for its imaging, payroll and HR systems). Sanford also recently deployed three PureFlex chassis with 17 p260 POWER7* compute nodes, two of which are load-balanced for production and the third
for disaster recovery.

Solution
Solution: Deploying an IBM PureFlex System to reduce server churn and
meet future growthHardware: Four IBM Power Systems 750s, two Power Systems 720s, a Power Systems 770, a Power Systems 740 and three IBM PureFlex chassis
Software: An electronic medical records solution, a financials ERP suite and a document-imaging system
Why did IBM Win?
PureFlex technology offered Sanford:A dense but powerful compute platform A similar BladeCenter mentality
A highly expandable and scalable infrastructure

Customer Success: Ledcor IP Holdings, Ltd.
Business Need
Populating its IT systems, Ledcor IP Holdings, Ltd. (Ledcor) had stand-alone servers powered by
inferior microprocessors and supported by low-end storage devices. Ledcor did not have an effective disaster recovery strategy in place and poorly maintained its secondary data center. As the company continued to grow at a rapid pace, the need for a robust infrastructure became urgent. Ledcor sought
to overhaul its IT infrastructure with powerful, virtualized servers supported by effective storage devices and to establish an appropriate disaster recovery strategy at its secondary site.
© 2013 IBM Corporation43
Customer Success: Ledcor IP Holdings, Ltd.
Solution
Ledcor engaged IBM Premier Business Partner Softchoice to replace its
incumbent infrastructure with a built-to-order IBM Flex System solution at its production and disaster recovery sites. Each site contains the following:
- Two IBM Flex System Enterprise Chassis
- Two IBM Flex System x240 compute nodes
- Eight IBM Flex System x440 compute nodes
- Six IBM Storwize V7000 disk systems
The IBM Flex System compute nodes run the Microsoft Windows operating
system and are virtualized using Oracle VM Server for x86 software. The
nodes support Oracle JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, Microsoft Exchange
Server software and the Microsoft SharePoint platform. Ledcor controls the
systems from an IBM Flex System Manager node.
© 2013 IBM Corporation44
Customer Success: Ledcor IP Holdings, Ltd.
Why did IBM Win?
IBM won the business by proposing a solution focused on Ledcor's business needs rather
than on specific technology. The solution offered remedies to the organization's immediate
challenges while also keeping long-term initiatives in mind. The IBM team also engaged the company
in extended meetings to curate a trusted relationship with decision makers.

Customer Success: City of Burnaby
Business Need
The City of Burnaby had a dispersed IT infrastructure comprising IBM BladeCenter blade servers,
IBM System p5 servers, IBM System Storage DS8000 and IBM System Storage N series
devices and an IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller device. The environment also
included the IBM AIX and Microsoft Windows operating systems, VMware vSphere V5.1 software built
on the VMware ESXi hypervisor architecture and SAP AG solutions. The IT environment proved too time-consuming and difficult for the city to manage well. To meet the demands of e-government and accommodate future growth in constituent services delivery requirements, the City of Burnaby needed
to consolidate its infrastructure on a powerful, compact solution that would deliver optimized performance, improved energy efficiency and an intuitive management interface
© 2013 IBM Corporation46
Success Story: City of Burnaby
Solution
The City of Burnaby planned to consolidate and refresh its data center
infrastructure, replacing all its servers and storage devices with a single system over three implementation phases. For phrase one, the client deployed a built-to-order IBM Flex System solution.
Why did IBM Win?
IBM won this business by proactively approaching the government agency
and convincing it that the solution would simplify management
processes. The IBM team explained to the agency that the solution would
allow it to accomplish the refresh of its architecture in stages and
integrate key technologies into the IBM Flex System Enterprise
Chassis in the future. The IBM team also focused on the broad selection
of networking options within the IBM Flex System solution, knowing that the agency had a specific requirement for dedicated 10 Gb and 16 Gb fibre-
channel connections.
