SITUATION TODAYDifficult management of high-density VM sitesLimited hardware resources per VMsLack of unified virtualization architectureLimited VM client supportDifficult end-to-end management

Virtualization with Hyper-V & RDS

With virtualization, we will save about 50 percent of our annual energy budget for cooling and electricity. Virtualization saves us on hardware and labor. We also save on software licensing fees. And we can save money by creating and managing virtual test environments for some applications with our development group. - LukOil Oil Company

Over time, however, the company expects to benefit from reduced power consumption and costs. “Because of our size, we can realize significant gains by managing power more efficiently,” says Buckingham. “The electricity billing in our data centers is based on metered power, and we can reduce our monthly bills if we control power consumption with Windows Server 2008 R2.” - MySpace.com

Employee productivity has improved so much that he was able to defer hiring additional sales and management personnel this year. “The $120,000 to $150,000 a year it would cost to fund these positions now goes straight to our bottom line or gets distributed to current employees to help preclude layoffs in the future. - Convergent Computing

SITUATION TODAYIncreased need for organizational resource reportingToo many manual tasksComplex monitoring and event reportingMultiple management tools

Automation & Reporting

Using Windows Server 2008 R2, we accomplished a whole year’s worth of IT projects in the first quarter of 2009—even in this tight economy…We couldn’t be more pleased.

- Convergent Computing

With DirectAccess, CCO is saving about $40,000 a year by eliminating its VPN and all its associated hardware, software, licensing, and carrier charges - Convergent Computing

MARKET OPPORTUNITYIDC projects the total VPN Security Solutions market to go to $2.9 billion by 2013. Direct Access requirement for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 willdrive demand for new PC and Server HW. Direct Access allows customers to avoid purchasing and managing additional VPN HW, SW, and carrier charges.

FEATURE OVERVIEWComprehensive anywhere access for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2

Seamless, always-on, secure connectivity; no separate client software requiredUtilizes networking technologies already in Windows Server 2008 No separate action required to connect to corpnet while remote. Corpnet is simply there.Leverages policy-based network accessEnables desktop management regardless of client location.

DirectAccess

SITUATION TODAY

Application and data access over WAN is slow in branch offices

Slow connections hurt user productivity

Improving network performance is expensive and difficult to implement

Caches content downloaded from file and Web servers

Users in the branch can quickly open files stored in the cache

Frees up network bandwidth for other uses

BranchCache™

Branch Office Network PerformanceMake Users Productive Anywhere

Using the BranchCache™ features in Windows Server® 2008 R2 and Windows 7, CCO has simplified remote connection to its network and speed the downloading of important files. It has cut costs by eliminating its virtual private network and has seen a 43 percent savings in wide area network (WAN) bandwidth. - Convergent Computing
