1 Kansas Gov Cloud update

2 Thank You! Recently we have all been through 2 studies. One performed by EMC and the other by IBM Both vendors commented on the overwhelming cooperation that they experienced in working with the Agency staff Great thanks to you and your staff for the cooperation as well as the time and effort expended

3 Study findings Overall historic availability has been good Higher than average risk profile for the state that has been historically mitigated by highly skilled and experienced IT staff with demonstrated proficiency in managing the environment IT infrastructure is highly disparate across the agencies leading to added complexity and limited economies of scale

4 Acknowledged need to drive higher levels of standardization and automation as well as economies of scale by leveraging a private cloud Agency staff expressed concern over the potential exposure for an extended service outage due to aging server infrastructure that is no longer on vendor hardware maintenance support plans Study findings

5 Just under 2000 logical servers in cabinet agencies – excluding CJIS regulated agencies Virtualization adoption around 79% overall 121 different variations of server models and CPU types 27 different flavors of windows server operating systems 71% of physical hardware based on technologies of 4 years or older – based on GA date 40% of servers are running Windows 2003 server or older operating system Study findings - Server

6 Study findings – Storage 23 current storage models covering 8 different vendors Just over 2 PB of RAW storage capacity in use today Overall utilization of usable capacity @ 70% Lack comprehensive and integrated toolset to support management and monitoring of entire storage infrastructure

7 Overall efficiency of individual backup jobs was good at 95%+ 15 types of backup software running, some with multiple versions of the same product within the same agency Low de-duplication technology adoption Inconsistent data retention periods; retention periods for 14% of assets unknown Study findings – Backup / DR

8 Kansas Gov Cloud Currently writing RFP for release in the near future RFP will encompass – Infrastructure components – compute and storage – Datacenter colo services – Backbone network connectivity to Datacenter locations Pricing

9 Kansas Gov Cloud We have returned the logical server information that was obtained through the asset surveys to each agency to help us plan and formalize the 0-5 year sizing and capacity requirements for use during RFP negotiations Information to be returned to the Central Office by COB on July 19 th
