Key goals on the SAP UCC TUM infrastructure concept

9

Before Targets set for new IBM infrastructure

Many blocked resources leading to:

• very high load during courses

• idle after course has finished

Consolidation and Virtualization:

• better and fast load balancing

• better response time for all clients

High energy consumption due to:

• idle capacity

• poor power management

Shared resources and intelligent power management:

• leads to higher utilization of all resources

• lowering energy consumption if idle

Large amount of unused:

• physical memory

• external storage

Compression of data

• less memory on servers

• less disk space on storage

Poor view on total landscape Monitoring of whole landscape

Many manual workload for clients and system

administrators

Introduction of ticket system for clients and

automization of many IT tasks
