Editor's Notes
Now that you have seen some of the results we were able to work with our clients to obtain, let’s take a quick look at IBM's experience and expertise in the data center area and some of our own results. The top of the chart highlights IBM’s internal experience and what we’ve done over the last ten years. As you can see, we have significantly reduced, consolidated and rationalized our data center infrastructures around the world. We have gone from 155 host data centers to 7 primary centers today. From 80 Web hosting Centers To 5 primary Web hosting Centers today. from 31 networks to 1 network today, from 15,000 applications to about 4,700 of applications today. That rationalization of our 800,000 square meters of data center space that we offer ourselves, our strategic outsourcing clients and our BCRS clients around the world is saving IBM 1.5 billion dollars a year in operational cost savings. So we have very deep expertise in that area. The bottom of the page talks about how we take this expertise to our clients who are not necessarily just our strategic outsourcing client or BCRS clients. We have over 3,300 people just in the server, storage, and datacenter services practices that can help our clients with all these things. We have deep expertise in designing and building data centers around the world. We built over 3 million square meters of raised floor for our clients around the world. We are currently finishing the largest data center for a client in Egypt, we just completed the largest data center for a client in India, we are building about 20 data centers in China at any one time. So, we have this expertise and not just in the traditional environments but also in the high growth environments around the world. And we also have incredibly deep expertise in virtualization for the clients, where we virtualize hundreds of thousands of servers and storage devices for our clients.
