This document discusses HPE Flexible Capacity, which provides on-premises IT infrastructure and services based on a flexible consumption model where customers pay monthly based on actual usage rather than upfront for hardware and software. It aims to provide the agility of public cloud with the control and security of on-premises IT. The document outlines challenges for CIOs and CFOs in maintaining agility while managing costs, describes how Flexible Capacity addresses these by allowing usage-based payments. It then provides details on the Flexible Capacity offering and process, and compares the total cost over 4 years to a traditional purchase model, showing 27-31% savings with Flexible Capacity.
Bring Down Costs by Controlling Cloud Capacity Precisely
Chances are, your organization has made the move to a cloud-first IT strategy, or is thinking of doing so in the near future. Cost savings is often a prime motivation, but simply transferring your infrastructure to the cloud does not guarantee lower costs.
Just like your on-premises data center, the cloud requires a careful balance of resources. Too much capacity leads to escalating costs and overspending. Too little, and you can face outages that put your business at risk.
View this webcast to learn strategies for getting the most out of your cloud infrastructure with capacity management. We will cover:

Delivering innovation back to the business can be a balancing act between performance, costs and risk. Without insight into the current utilization of data center resources, IT cannot predict the capacity needed to meet workload demands, leading to under/over provisioned environments, performance degradation and increased risks or over-provisioning. In this session you will learn how "Converged Capacity" provides the ability to analyze, plan and manage IT and data center capacity. Taking a converged capacity view makes it easy to evaluate the current state of capacity utilization and achieve data center efficiency across high-volume physical, virtual and cloud environments. See how one major co-lo and a large financial institution are solving their capacity management challenges with CA Technologies.

For many organizations, a move to Azure creates issues with managing costs and resource ownership. Why? Cloud-based technologies rely on a different cost model - one based on usage consumption, rather than purchasing hardware and software.
In this presentation we cover how to:
- Build an Azure cost model based on best practices
- Use chargebacks to assign and track IT usage to specific business units
- Avoid unexpected consumption expenses by seeing what you’re consuming, and who's consuming it
Analytikerne og it-leverandørerne snakker om convergence. Men hvad er det? Og giver det reelle fordele for it-afdelingerne, eller er det blot et nyt vendor lock-in?
Kom og hør HP’s bud på Converged Infrastructure i en åben verden – fra containerbaserede datacentre til hybride cloud-løsninger. Hvordan kan HP Converged Infrastructure hjælpe med at simplificere og automatisere it-infrastrukturen radikalt og frigive værdifulde ressourcer til forretningsorienterede initiativer?

This is a brief presentation about TCO, a subject that should be addressed by all CIO's. A lot of savings can be realized when one gives TCO a careful look ..
Imagine an entire IT infrastructure controlled not by hands and hardware, but by software. One in which application workloads such as big data, analytics, simulation and design are serviced automatically by the most appropriate resource, whether running locally or in the cloud. A Software Defined Infrastructure enables your organization to deliver IT services in the most efficient way possible, optimizing resource utilization to accelerate time to results and reduce costs. It is the foundation for a fully integrated software defined environment, optimizing your compute, storage and networking infrastructure so you can quickly adapt to changing business requirements. A comprehensive portfolio of management tools dynamically manage workloads and data, transforming a static IT infrastructure into a workload- , resource- and data-aware environment.

Software-Defined Data Center Case Study – Financial Institution and VMwareVMware
In this case study, a large financial institution engaged the VMware software-defined data center team to create a three-to-five year forward-looking strategy document for its IT department. The overriding business driver for the institution was the need for a drastic reduction in IT OpEx Costs, at least a 50% OpEx annualized cost reduction over a three-year period. This presentation explains how VMware Accelerate Advisory Services established the necessary strategy, including a look at the “cloud reference architecture,” which addressed the: application plane, control plane, infrastructure layer, and management plan.

Objective and Study Design: This was a cross-sectional study purposed to observe the effects of led bulbs and artificial lights on human health and its physiological considerations on sleep.
Our study addressed two goals. Our first goal was to determine the extent to which light pollution was perceived as a problem by the people. Our second goal was to recommend
applicable lighting ordinances for reducing light pollution. Material and Methods: This study was conducted at All India Institute of Medical Sciences hospital, Bhopal and Narayana medical college, Nellore during the period between May 2014 and August 2015. Three hundred human volunteers, 123 female and 177 male, ages of 18 and 55 were studied in a two-part experiment, which included one Sleep questionnaire regarding light pollution to study each individual's
normal body conditions, and an Assay of melatonin in saliva. Results: The results showed that many participants have a long history of sleeping problems. They usually take at least an hour to fall asleep and tend to wake up frequently throughout the night and feel poorly rested in the morning. The salivary melatonin levels also declined at night due to progressive exposure to artificial light. Conclusion: Through our research, we have obtained data that strongly suggest that light pollution is adversely affecting public health, causing them to experience sleep loss, visual fatigue, weariness, anxiety, and depression.

Postgres Vision 2018: How to Consume your Database Platform On-premisesEDB
The usual model for a database platform on-premises is to run it the way IT is usually operated - silo'd and capital- and labor-intensive. In the cloud, consumption means that you pay for what you use, with less heavy lifting to operate the platform. Presented at Postgres Vision 2018, this covers how HPE can deliver EDB Postgres in the data center or on the edge in a consumption model that is pay-per-use, elastic IT, operated for you, migrated, and integrated.

The speed and productivity benefits of high-performance cloud computing are well documented. For numerically large engineering simulations, a flexible cloud environment typically delivers faster run times, allowing engineers to solve complex problems quickly ― and launch products more rapidly. The world's leading product development teams are already leveraging high-performance computing (HPC) resources, yet many of them remain uncertain about the costs of replacing on-premises hardware and software with cloud hosting.
To clear up the confusion and demonstrate that the cloud delivers a total cost of ownership that is lower than on-premises computing, Ansys has published “A Break in the Clouds: The Cost Benefits of Ansys Cloud.” The white paper illustrates how Ansys Cloud delivers all the speed and efficiency that customers expect from HPC in the cloud ― along with Ansys’ software ― at a cost lower than an on-premises approach.
To meet all the businesses challenges in today’s competitive era, implementing a cloud-based ERP is very important. SMEs have also started adopting this technical advancement to stay in the long run. Want to know how then check this out-
