automation

• align IT closer to cloud solutions


• allows key next steps
o self service
o dynamic infrastructure
o portability
o lower cost
• starts with your processes

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


use case #1
logistics company
overview

Objective
• To capture the end to end Server Provisioning process with a view to identify areas that
can be modified to deliver greater agility to customers

Method
• Five separate workshops, April/May 2010
• 11 team members from 11 different teams
• Focus on the process flow as it passes between teams rather than how each team
performs their individual tasks

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


initial assessment
Phase 1 ~ 12 Weeks

Phase 2 ~ 8 Weeks
process swim lanes
high level recommendations

1. Quick win
o Automate hardware procurement process will remove 3 weeks out of 8 for
phase 2
• Standardise platforms
o removing bespoke development would remove 12 weeks from process
• Flow on
o With standard builds the last 5 weeks can be collapsed

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


use case #2
finance company
overview

Objective
• new CTO
• provisioning was major headache for IT

Method
• same as prior case study
• more metrics reviewed
• reworked processes
• deployed software

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


initial assessment

Elapsed Time 107 days


Actual Effort 34.5 days

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


defining the ‘desirable’ process

• had to remove some fundamental roadblocks


o Licensing on critical path
o Too many SOE’s
o Hardware procurement on critical path
o Build and Imaging not automated
• if we could do that, we could do this:
o E.g. Pre-approved build Less overhead for security team

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


the new process and the assumptions

Potential to reduce Actual Effort from 34.5 days to 6 days

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


how easy was that...?

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


the new IT process

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


conclusions?

• Significant efficiency gains


o 10 Days elapsed – down from 107 Days
o 5 Hours actual effort - down from 34 Days
o Approximately $20K saving per instantiation of the process
• Cost savings
o Process gets enacted 20 times per year
o 20 x $20k savings = $400k savings per year
• Realising opportunities – the Businesses perspective..
o 97 Days reduction in delivery time = application in production earlier =
revenue realisation earlier
• Cookie Cutter
o IT now has a platform and model to build on! – Proof-of-Process

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


conclusions
where are you now?

• automation is far from fully leveraged


• the biggest trap of all: “Because that’s the way we’ve
always done it”
• undermining corporate responsiveness and business
agility
• IT is seen as a constraint rather than contributor
• losing staff hearts and minds

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


understanding the ‘as is’

• Analysis, analysis and then some more analysis


• Ask everyone what is the process
o Some times two people have the same answer
• Draw up the process
o Mindmap
• How long are the SLA’s for the steps
• How long do people actually take
• Ask their opinion as to how to do it better

July 20, 2010 your path to cloud computing Copyright © 2010 CA


lay cloud foundations

• cloud type infrastructure


• automation can close the agility gap
• produce significant, immediate cost savings
• quantify IT‟s contribution to meeting defined business
goals
• reinvigorate the interest of hard-to-recruit and retain IT
professionals
• help the business compete with greater economy and
agility in fast-moving marketplaces
