Integrated Infrastructure and Platform sales are booming

Q3 2014 YoY Growth(source: IDC)

EMEA

+38.2%

Middle-East

+282%

CIOs are choosing speed and peace of mind

Power management: the 5th Element of Converged Infrastructure

Integrated power management solutions will let you

• View and manage your entire power system from your existing virtualization dashboard

• Keep critical loads running longer

• Ensure maximum business continuity

Compute

Virtualization

Networking

Integrated power management

Storage

Supporting properly modern IT should aim at 3 outcomes

Save time View and manage entire power infrastructure from hypervisor dashboard.

Reduce risk Keep critical loads operational. Enable VM migration during utility service interruption.

Ensure business continuityPreserve data and maintain uptime during power disturbances.

Enable you to solve the problem of power management complexity and deliver a truly complete, reliably powered, resilient solution.

Modern infrastructure protects Critical VMs, not “IT boxes”

• Manage and control power infrastructure inside vCenter and XenCenter

Hypervisor Plug in

• Initiate SRM for vMotion to DR site without data loss

Disaster Recovery- SRM

• Keep mission critical applications running longer on battery• Suspend non-critical VMs while consolidating critical ones to

shutdown unused servers• Sequential shutdown and start up

Load Shedding

• Agents consume server resources, IPM requires no agent on production servers

• Graceful server shutdown with no agents running on server or VMs

Remote Agentless Shutdown

Software integration is essential to uptime in virtualized environments

Peace of Mind should extend to infrastructure to guarantee Compatibility and Uptime

Make sure that infrastructure solutions are more than a marketing brochure…

Vendor Validation is Essential to guarantee seamless integration

The challenge:Increasingly volatile power demand

IT Services Supply• Large hardware clusters under

Hypervisors and Cloud orchestrators bring:

Better utilization rate…

… less resources waste

Elasticity and immediate response

to demand

• Energy star drives proportionality

IT Services Demand• Traditional intra-day and –week

volatility stays, with some extras

From branches opening and closing…

… to scheduled work

Increasing use of BI / Analytics

• Mobile devices and expansion of streaming add to the challenge

Known patterns –commuting

Expected events –football

Unpredictable –breaking news

Growing –enterprise use of video

IT power draw varies quickly and wildly in modern environments

Is your IT infrastructure ready to handle it?

• Achieving the resilience and agility required to handle volatility requires new architectures• IT orchestrators must lead –and power and cooling

be pulled by IT loads automatically, on-demand

• Any external synchronization mechanism between

UPS is a single point of failure

• Any central infrastructure software used for control

is a single point of failure

Auto-adaptive, fail-safe power chains must follow IT load changes

Distributed control architecturesare inherently safer…

System level statuses, commands, energy efficiency enhancing etc.

through parallel system communications

Inherent redundancy withinherent load sharing,

critical power monitoring and power protection

… and enable safe auto-adaptation to load and power conditions

Load adaptive and optimised performance
