• According to Gartner’s analysis worldwide IT spending in 2013 was about $3.7T• IBM’s 2012 Data Center Study showed that only 1 in 5 organizations allocate more than

half their IT budget to new projects and innovation

Customer Case Study

April 10, 2023


• By establishing standard patterns for their deployments, and removing the diversity and complexity of systems they were able to shorten production delivery times from 6 months down to 2 months, and most recently down to 2 weeks and in some cases 2 days.

• They have been able to drive out hard and soft costs, and have experienced improved application performance and stability.

• They have also been able to realize a 12 month ROI that has allowed them to get additional funding and take this IT change initiative to the next level.

Patterns: DevOpsIBM UrbanCode Deploy

By adding UrbanCode Deploy we can automate the steps after infrastructure set up that might be needed to configure infrastructure beyond the pattern or any of the installed components. We also get a centralized dashboard of the version and status of all items on the on the promote to production path.

Pure Application: Software Licensing

PureApplication System:Produces license usage reports which meet subcapacity licensing requirements

Prevents license overages by optionally taking action when a requested deployment would exceed entitlement:

Warn: send email to user and admin, but allow deployment

Enforce: reject deployment

Now supports the following license metrics: Processor Value Unit (PVU), Virtual Instance /

VM, Compute Node / Physical Server, Processor Core

Requires license expertise for optimal licensing

iSOLAR – What is it? The iSOLAR Program is a consultative asset

management service which Prolifics provides its customers to optimize infrastructure, provide a technology roadmap, identify risks and save money.

Executed in confidence. All materials under optional NDA.

Provides Customer:1. Cost Savings – optimize software and hardware spend2. Visibility - Provides IT inventory data for actionable insight into a client’s IT infrastructure3. Planning - Improves infrastructure reporting, analysis and planning4. Compliance / Risk Reduction - Ensures accurate tracking and reporting of IBM licenses and lowers audit exposure.

How to get Started Build the vision and Share it Build a Business Case:

Think full lifecycle, Dev through Operations for ROI Analyze/Optimize your IBM Software spend for Patterns Set realistic budget Leverage your IBM Software spend – use Prolifics iSOLAR to maximize Utilize Softlayer – lower initial cost threshold and validate use as Dev platform

Identify a workload – but Don’t boil the ocean: make it feasible Get Creative – 3rd party apps may also be Pattern candidates

Start with a pilot/POC but set aggressive timelines and challenges Plan for Integration Needs (DBs, Sys Mgmt, Networking, Security,

Facilities, etc). But don’t let them derail you. EDUCATE, EDUCATE, EDUCATE:

In order to build Patterns, you must know how to integrate/Operate base Middleware

Make sure everyone knows their parts as well as tech training

Prolifics will partner with you to insure success.
