Our Infrastructure Assessment Services help enterprises combat server sprawl, optimize IT resources and explore virtualization. CSC's Optimization Assessment and Systems Integration Study (OASIS) assesses your IT environment and provides a five-year roadmap for how to maximize investment, whether through virtualization, database stacking, rightsizing or other techniques.
BENEFITS
- Maximize agility
- Minimize license costs
- Increase server utilization
- Improve return on capital
- Increase operational efficiency
- Minimize total cost of ownership
- Minimize power and space consumption
HOW IT WORKS
An OASIS study analyzes 12 key data elements about your IT environment (servers, storage, networks) and issues four reports:
- Site breakdown report
- Platform breakdown report
- Environmental report ("Green report")
- ROI report
The reports are used to create an enterprise view of current and future IT states and contain data on server frame and operating system counts, square footage, racks, power,
cooling and carbon dioxide emissions. The ROI report helps you prioritize IT expenditures and focus on the optimization paths that will have the most positive impact on your business.
Recommendations are based on the cost of implementing the technique relative to the overall savings estimated over five years. Recommendations are customized to your environment, unlike the one-size-fits-all solutions common in the industry.
In the past, similar analyses have taken from three to six months. With OASIS, a full assessment can be performed and results returned in only one to two weeks.
