Reduce Costs

"Doing more with the infrastructure you have has never been more important."

Under uncertain economic conditions, companies face the challenge of sustaining high performance whilst reducing operational costs. For many, the economics and technology of the Data Centre are central to growth strategies.

Initiatives like Data Centre Consolidation, Centralisation, Automation, Cloud Computing, Remote Working, Shared Services and Virtualisation are featuring heavily on the agenda for CIOs as IT organisations look to make more effective use of their existing infrastructure, raise efficiency and performance levels, ensure high availability of computing and build a long-term platform for scalability and growth.

Teneo is continually strengthening its portfolio with new technologies that help customers to reduce costs, improve performance and automate management of IT infrastructure. Our approach to cost reduction typically helps organisations to lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and make use of existing IT resources more strategically and effectively in the following ways:

• Enable Data Centre Consolidation: Reduce real estate costs and operating expenses through data centre consolidation but maintain productivity levels.

• Consolidate Branch Office Infrastructure: Reduce or eliminate complex and outdated branch office IT infrastructure through server consolidation.

• Lower IT Services Costs: Reduce or eliminate outsourced server management costs at branch offices.

• Reduce Power and Cooling Costs: Reduce power and cooling costs by having fewer servers in branches and fewer data centres. Get better utilisation out of virtualised servers through automated management and optimisation.

• Reduced Management Overhead Costs: Automate the reporting of data centre monitoring and management to refocus staff on more strategic objectives.

• Reduced Facilities Expenses: Make enterprise applications work for home-based workers just like they do at headquarters and reduce the office space required to support your business.

• Save on WAN Bandwidth Costs: Avoid upgrading expensive WAN links to branch offices, or decommission expensive over-provisioned links around the world using WAN optimisation.

• Reduce Data Storage Costs: Reduce or eliminate off-site data storage for most sites around the world.

• Reduce RTO / RPO: Improve Business Continuity processes by accelerating backup and replication for shorter Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) across longer distances, without adding more expensive bandwidth.

• Reduce Business Travel Costs: Reduce travel requirements by making global collaboration over long distances work more efficiently through application acceleration.
