Mission

UNCLASSIFIED

1. Establish secure, easy to use, rapidly provisioned Information

Technology Cloud solution for the Army, including:

•Agile and simple acquisition processes

•CAC enabled NIPR/SIPR access from stationary and remote

terminals based on security postures

•Elastic, usage-based delivery of pooled computing resources

•Secure linkage and secure data base storage host

•Interoperable Thin Client stations

•Application grid based on user requested software options

•Always on and available, utility-like solutions.

2. Drive the Army-wide adoption of SIPR/NIPR protocols

using cloud computing solutions.

Facts & Assumptions

UNCLASSIFIED

1. Current architecture /infrastructure is outdated and presents many maintenance issues.

2. Costs for licensing and new equipment are increasing/unaffordable by Government.

3. Bandwidth requirements/space allocation outweighs the value of on-hand technology.

4. The need for widgets that allow users to generate content and collaborate are available, but not compatible for inclusion in current architecture.

5. Government funding will not be available for reset/lifecycle.

6. A reduction in policy/instruction would put most users on the same page.

7. Cloud Computing Initiatives for the Army will set direction, establish guidelines and define the future vision and architecture for the LANDWARNET

SLA Considerations

• Retention Time: During an emergency/outage, how long would it take for the organization to sustain its operations

• Uptime: The percent of the time that the system will be available (e.g., 99.9%) and the period over which the measurement is taken

• Performance and throughput

• Security and Data protection: Where is the data stored? What precautions are taken by the vendor to ensure the data isn't tampered with?

• The level of support offered (e.g., 24/7)

• Service credits if the SLA isn't met

• COOP

Cost Analysis (1500 Users)

Desktop Cost Assumptions

• Physical Desktop Cost: $888 (Source: Intel Destkop TCO Case study. Optimum Refresh Cycle and Method for Desktop Outsourcing)

• Desktop Technology Refresh Cycle: 3 Years

• Desktop Deployment Cost: $250 (Source: Intel Destkop TCO Case study. Optimum Refresh Cycle and Method for Desktop Outsourcing)

• Desktop Power Consumption: $146/year (11 cents per KwH Power Cost)

Thin Client Cost Assumptions

• 5 Year CAPEX of $1750/user

• Initial cost approx $615/user

• Direct cost savings of over $1.3M over a 5-year period against physical desktop deployment (1500 user system)

• 5 Year product maintenance

• Thin Client annual power consumption: $25/year (20W power consumption)UNCLASSIFIED

Comparative Cost Savings

5/26/2011 12UNCLASSIFIED

Page 13: Coming Soon

• Reductions in HW/SW Procurement Costs– No purchasing or re-purchasing of infrastructure equipment

• Reduction in O & M Costs– No lifecycle replacement costs– Green IT; lower energy and power consumption

• Decreased Manpower– Less System Admins needed for daily ops

• Increased Accessibility/Flexibility– Can access anywhere with an active internet connection

• Increased Security– Central Management– Increased Insider Threat capability

Benefits

5/26/2011 13UNCLASSIFIED

Page 14: Coming Soon

• Cultural retraining required– Users will have to get used to the idea of doing things different

than used to doing• Convincing ARMY to release hold on unclassified data• Reliability

– Speed at which work accomplished dependant on network connection speeds.

• Security of Thin Client in a cloud environment.– Data only as secure as the host cloud
