Extended Support Options
Consider this for the Windows Server 2003:
The last Service Pack was issued more than six
years ago.
Regular or “mainstream” support ended three
years ago.
The product is now on “extended support.”

• High cost custom support agreements (CSAs) – first year are
usually in the range of $200K and can compound
• Existing physical hardware may be 5-7 years old, expensive
to maintain
• No direct upgrade path to Windows 2012 R2
• Need to address applications as well as the OS
• Can’t take advantage of modern IT infrastructure and
management tools
Why is Doing Nothing Not an Option
• Windows updates – including security will no longer
be available
• Microsoft will no longer support virtualized platform
• Regulatory issues

Key Considerations:
How old is your installed base?
Is your equipment out of warranty?
Are you sufficiently protecting your data?

CompuCom’s Server Migration Approach
•Establish application support structure
•Implement migration solutions in a phased in approach to mitigate loss of service and impacts to the organization •Validate migration activities •Client execute UAT on
migrated applications •Provide post migration
support based on contract requirements.
•Decommission legacy hardware and either re-deploy or release for disposal
Implementation
(Migrate)
•Develop migrations solutions on an application by application basis.
•Review migrations solutions with application owners and incorporate feedback •Finalize migration solution
options and document. •Where possible establish a
test lab to validate migration solutions.
•Review test results with client •Develop migration
implementation plan that aligns to business SLA’s, application dependencies and outage windows
•Develop and communicate application support structure to be used during migration waves
Design (Target)
•Determine available support on existing hardware. •Determine minimum
hardware specifications for any re-deployable hardware •Determine what systems can
be re-deployable with reasonable hardware upgrades
•Map out application dependencies
•Review application upgrade paths
•Review possible areas for application transformations. •Review area’s for application
consolidation
•Rationalize both the H/W and software lists and determine areas of reduction, upgrades and transformations •Determine application
criticality to the organization
Planning (Assess)
•Deploy our discovery tools across the server farm to gather detailed information on existing hardware, OS, applications, etc.
•Receive and reconcile license entitlement information from the client and/or providers •Gather application availability
information (business SLA’s, outage windows, etc.)
•Gather information from client on application owners. •Cross reference available
information with customer supplied inventory lists. •Receive hardware support
information from client •Consolidate H/W and S/W lists
to develop a complete inventory of all in scope servers
Dig Deeper with the Discover and Assessment Process
Microsoft Assessment and Planning (MAP) Toolkit
Agentless, automated, multi-product planning and assessment tool for
quicker and easier desktop, server, and cloud migrations.
Provides detailed readiness assessment reports and executive
proposals with extensive hardware and software information, as well
as actionable recommendations to help organizations accelerate their
IT infrastructure planning process and gather more detail on assets
that reside within their current environment.

Hybrid Cloud
“Servers in the data center used to be
special; they were like family pets!
They were sensitive, we fed them and
cared for them.
Servers in the modern datacenter are like
cattle. If they go down or have problems,
we just shoot them and bring in another
one.”
(quote from presenter in video training talks from Microsoft)Building the Modern Datacenter
Yes 78%
Maybe 17%
Will your enterprise be
pursuing a private cloud
computing strategy by 2014?
n = 150
Gartner
Design private cloud
deployments with interoperability
and future hybrid in mind.
Especially in larger enterprises,
consider the evolution to hybrid
cloud computing as part of a
broader strategy to position IT
as the broker for a broad mix
of IT services delivered
in many different ways —
hybrid IT.

Considerable This
It is believed that large customers will maintain a significant amount of
their IT facilities and staff at their sites, and by 2020, about 80% of the
world’s 2,000 largest companies will still have greater than 50% of
their IT onsite (IDC 2014).
Early-stage companies (less than five years in business) are the most
eager buyers of cloud, concerned with start-up capital costs and less
likely to build and staff a conventional datacenter, and plan to increase
their spend on public cloud by 24% over the next few years (IDC

Suitable for
Organizations using
Active Directory (AD)
Provides best experience to
most customers using AD
Supports Exchange and
Lync Co-existence scenarios
Coupled with ADFS,
provides best option for
federation and
synchronization
Supports Password
Synchronization with no
additional cost
Does not require any
additional software licenses
Suitable for small/medium
size organizations with AD
or Non-AD
Performance limitations apply with
PowerShell and Graph API
provisioning
PowerShell requires scripting
experience
PowerShell option can be used
where the customer/partner may
have wrappers around PowerShell
scripts (eg: Self Service
Provisioning)
PowerShell & Graph API
Suitable for large
organizations with
certain AD and Non-AD
scenarios
Requires Forefront Identity
Manager (FIM), soon to be
Microsoft Identity Manager
and additional software licenses
Additional automation
capabilities
Coupled with ADFS, provides
flexible option for federation
and synchronization
Non-AD synchronization

Case Study – Retail
WinSvr 2003 Migration
Customer: Retail Organization
expecting to grow from 20 stores to
100 in 5 years.
Problem: Customer had a
Windows 2003 server infrastructure
with tape backups and scripted
copies to DR site.
–
Single SQL 2005 database running
all critical transactions. Used
database replication for DR.
–
Limited staff, and could not grow
back office staff fast enough and
had major space limitations.

Case Study – Retail WinSvr
2003 Migration (cont.)
Solution: Built a Hyper-v based
virtualization platform on Windows
Server 2012 infrastructure that
included:
–
Clustered SQL 2012 database with HA
session failover.
–
Always ON database to support HA in a
Colocation site.
–
Configured VM replication to DR site for
failover
–
Implemented SCOM to monitor
performance and HA
–
Installed SCVMM to manage VM’s
across the organization and auto failover
VM’s to DR site based on conditions.
–
Reduced server footprint at main and
DR site.
