Rising IT Costs? Growing Resource Requirements?

We work with you to identify key areas in your IT budget and provide you with a list of options to address each one, including:

• Benefits (Technical & Financial)
• Level of Effort (LoE) to Accomplish Each Item
• Possible Risks
• Cost/Benefit Analysis

For the implementation phase, we provide your employees with the performance analysis and tuning skills they need to keep your IT costs under control.

Some of the key areas where performance analysis and tuning can significantly improve an organization's bottom line are:

• Software License/Maintenance Costs - Especially those licensed by CPU or MIPS.
• Hardware License/Maintenance Costs - Is there a technical or business driver to run on commodity hardware?
• Storage Costs - Does it make sense to cost-tier your storage?
• SLAs - It is always good to keep KPIs out of the "red" - There's nothing better than a happy customer.
• Using the correct types of tools for your workload - Network/System/Storage/Software.

By addressing the key areas first, the most business critical systems can be corrected quickly. The methodologies used can then be applied to less critical systems - and entire infrastructures - now that less time and money are spent on fire fighting.
