To understand infrastructure and operations (I&O) perceptions of converged infrastructure (CI), Forrester Consulting surveyed 200 I&O decision-makers from six different countries. Decision-makers were asked about their expectations of benefits and barriers to implementation of CI and those who have implemented CI were questioned on their actual experiences. This white paper reveals the results of this study and explains why Forrester believes that CI should be considered for any major infrastructure refresh or net new investment.

Public Platform as a Service (PaaS), for a variety of reasons, is not accessible to a majority of enterprise IT use cases. PaaS, however, provides significant value ranging from the automation of typically mundane and long running tasks such as application deployment, to providing a foundational architecture for guest application scalability. The ability to deploy a PaaS within your enterprise IT infrastructure, a "private PaaS", allows for your enterprise developers to access PaaS value without the accessibility problems of public PaaS.

Many lines of business are now procuring cloud services on their own because cloud computing professes to do what IT has long promised: deliver more for less and act as a business enabler. This method of acquiring services often leads to shadow IT-uncontrolled purchasing, dangerous security breaches, and poor service quality brought on by a lack of IT governance.
On the other hand, the alternative traditional IT approach with its manual processes requires so much effort for managing infrastructure and applications that it prevents IT from innovating and delivering value to the business. It also results in IT complexity and resource constraints that deprive businesses of the agility they need to scale up as the business grows and to respond to changing business requirements. A planned, formal shift from traditional methods to an internal private-cloud model could solve both problems, but many organizations are reluctant to make such a move because of legacy investments, and concerns about security, performance, availability, and total cost of ownership. The key to making that shift safely is HP Cloud Service Automation. Combining award-winning HP technology and best practices, HP Cloud Service Automation is a unique blend of software and services, providing a flexible cloud solution to deliver infrastructure and applications as a service.

In recent years, cloud computing has been as visible as any topic in IT. Its front-page news status has been accelerated by Amazon, Salesforce.com, Yahoo, and Microsoft®, among other firms, aggressively vying for leadership in providing cloud infrastructure or services. However, this race for mindshare has obscured cloud computing facts. Many admit to the haze surrounding cloud computing.
This white paper separates fact from fiction, reality from myth, and, in doing so, will aid senior IT executives as they make decisions around cloud computing. While dispelling cloud computing myths, we will answer tough questions: How hard is it to adopt a private or hybrid cloud? How difficult is it to maintain and secure a cloud? How will the cloud transform my business? Do I have the right skill sets in place? What are some of my cost considerations? HP and Intel are committing extensive resources to helping customers with all of their questions and concerns around cloud computing.
