Cloud Maturity Model: The Road to Adoption

Open Data Center Alliance

The Open Data Center Alliance Cloud Maturity Model (CMM) provides an end-to-end visualization for how the use of cloud in the enterprise develops over time (adoption roadmap) and how the enterprise’s ability to adopt cloud-based services within defined governance and control parameters increases. As it matures, the use of cloud becomes more sophisticated, comprehensive, and optimized. The CMM plots the progression of structured cloud service integration from a baseline of no cloud use through five progressive levels of maturity. This presentation will walk attendees through the maturity model that the ODCA has developed and how they can apply this model to their organization creating a comprehensive plan to fully integrate cloud into their operations.

We’ll decode the new AWS RI options, compare them to old-style RIs, and review discounting options from Google and other cloud providers. We’ll also share the perspective of how Finance teams will look at the plethora of cloud pricing options. In this webinar, we'll cover: -The ins and outs of new AWS RIs, including breakeven points -Understanding the impact of future cloud price changes on your RI buys -How AWS RI pricing stacks up against Google and other providers -How your Finance team will evaluate cloud pricing options

B4 - The TCO of cloud applications

Amazon Web Services

Weighing the financial considerations of owning and operating a data center facility versus employing a cloud infrastructure requires detailed and careful analysis. In practice, it is not as simple as just measuring potential hardware expense alongside utility pricing for compute and storage resources. The Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is often the financial metric used to estimate and compare direct and indirect costs of a product or a service. Given the large differences between the two models, it is challenging to perform accurate apples-to-apples cost comparisons between on-premises data centers and cloud infrastructure that is offered as a service. In this session, we explain the economic benefits of deploying applications in AWS over deploying equivalent applications hosted in an on-premises environment.

The economics of reducing the cost of energy by 13% revenues

Sentient Science

At what “speed” is your digitalization effort? There is no dispute, digitalization will play a key role in improving the sustainability of renewable energy sources through efficiency. The question remains – Where are you? While the industry has embraced the importance, water cooler conversations continue - How to monetize the true value of the data from digitalization? The webinar outlines: • How digitalization is applied across all corporate business units: asset management, operations management, risk management and supply chain management to reduce the cost of energy by up to 13% • An industry operator case study on monetizing your digitalization efforts and understand the true ROI • A digitalization value statement to enable operations management can provide a short-term watch list from 0-12 months enabling early detection prior to consequential damage beyond an operator's current capabilities – attributes to 2-3% of cost avoidance or cost savings.

How to Make Your Move to the Cloud with Confidence

Cloud Spectator

This document discusses how to move to the cloud with confidence by properly evaluating cloud providers and workloads. It recommends: 1) Selecting candidate cloud providers based on requirements like security, locations, compliance and pricing. 2) Benchmarking providers by testing real workloads over time on different machines and comparing performance of infrastructure components and applications. 3) A case study where benchmarking found one provider was 47% cheaper than another for a company after workloads were properly sized based on performance needs. Benchmarking helped optimize costs through performance normalization.

Cost is often the conversation starter when customers think about moving to the cloud. AWS helps lower costs for customers through its “pay only for what you use” pricing model, frequent price drops, and pricing model choice to support variable & stable workloads. In this session, you will learn about the financial considerations of owning and operating a traditional data center or managed hosting provider versus utilizing AWS. We will detail our TCO methodology and showcase cost comparisons for some common customer use-cases. We’ll also cover a few AWS cost optimization areas, including Spot and Reserved Instances, EC2 Auto Scaling, and consolidated billing.
