3. Shift from cost-savings focus to business agility
Businesses’ ability to scale up 3rd
Platform adoption will require
changes to IT operation that
bring agility and overcome siloed
legacy systems. This will make
agile development the de-facto
norm. - IDC
By 2016, >50% of Application
Modernization efforts will address
business demand for Enhanced
functionality - Gartner
By 2018, agile and iterative
development will require 30%
of resources for application
testing engagements to be on-
site or onshore - Gartner
Research suggests that
business agility is the
new source of business
value - Forrester
Application modernization and increasing
agility will continue to be a solid driver
for Application Development spending, apart
from other emerging dynamics of cloud,
mobility and social computing - Gartner
By 2016, >50% of application
modernization efforts will
address business demand for
enhanced functionality to
legacy applications and not
cost reduction. - Gartner
The primary focus of IT will remain
on the care and operation of the
existing applications, which are the
lifeblood of the enterprise - Gartner
Bimodal will gain
traction for enterprise
strategies - Gartner

11. Associated Wholesale Grocers (AWG)
Business Challenge
Associated Wholesale Grocers (AWG) was looking to modernize their core
business applications to reduce costs, and prepare to move to the cloud.
Solution
Dell undertook a comprehensive assessment and developed a migration plan
that included moving off a complex IBM infrastructure to an open system.
Results
• Modernized platform supports AWG’s migration to the cloud
• Reduced operating costs by 10%
• Improved disaster recovery capabilities; a recent disaster recovery test
validated that the system works and that the investment was worth it
