Direct Efficiency

• One way to quickly improve efficiency is to move from dedicated resource pools to a utility model in which provisioning is automated based on demand. Assess the environment for candidate applications to co-mingle across business lines that have complementary workloads.

• Review the list of vendors hardware and software that is running. Determine if consolidation can occur based on simplifying the workloads into just the categories. Calculate a ratio of these in terms of workloads running. This is a good precursor for evaluating whether workloads are better suited to run in private or public cloud environments.
