  3. Vision

  4. IT in a Changing Landscape • IT has to deliver more with less • 80% of IT budgets are “dead money” (Gartner) • Budget constraints • Strong desire to avoid vendor lock-in • Appetite for conventional enterprise software licenses is waning • Generational change – “Digital Natives” • Higher expectations • Expect technology to facilitate collaboration • Are comfortable with online communities

  5. Most Prevalent Goals • I want to better understand the relationships between applications and infrastructure • I want the data in my IT management systems to be accurate and collected automatically • I want to enforce my IT policies in the data center • I want to use my infrastructure efficiently • I don’t want to pay any more for software licences than I have to 1 2 3 4 5
