Chapter 11. Lower TCO and Greater ROI with Maximum Agility
This chapter focuses on how to achieve the goal of the cloud, which is to extend virtualization techniques across the entire data center to enable the abstraction, pooling (aggregating resources), and automation of all data center resources. This would allow a business to dynamically reallocate any part of the infrastructure for various workload requirements without forklifting hardware or rewiring.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Operational readiness for the cloud
- Cost comparison methodology and approach
- Technical capabilities and business benefits of the SDDC stack
