Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
Tyler MillerNational Sales Manager
CTI, Methode – Data Solutions [email protected]
Data Center expansion experiencing unprecedented growth
SAN & cloud growth happening at a rate of 23% in 2012
57% of organizations are electing to deploy a private cloud environment (43% public)
Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
The average enterprise has four DC locations
The average size of the DC is 15,000 sq ft
85% of companies surveyed reported the need for additional space in 2012
Data center budgets are expected to increase 8-29%

Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
INFO OBTAINED FROM DRT
Server global growth rate• 1996 = 5 million• 2009 = 32 million• 2013 = 80 million+ installed base of virtual machines
Direct Impacts of Growth• Staffing & maintenance costs rise 600% ($120 billion
annually)• Power & cooling costs triple ($2 billion to $10
billion/yr)• Increase in number of locations and footprint

INFO OBTAINED FROM IDC AND MICROSOFT
Time to Market, support of infrastructure impacts ability to react• Deployment time ranges from weeks to months (6-10
weeks according to RL Polk) delays impact revenue!• Build, receive, test, fix, and deploy in a production
environment
• The pace of business demands improvements• Weeks or months to days or hours
• Infrastructure Deployment Capacity Planning in PODS
Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
Design Considerations• Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM)
• Integration of IT and facilities management• Identify and eliminate sources of risks while increasing
availability of IT systems• Redundancy• Dynamic holistic goals and benchmarks• Effectiveness of green initiatives• Management & maintenance of physical infrastructure
Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
• Discuss standardization of server deployments in support of applications
Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
Product• Predetermined BOM of “Physical Infrastructure”
On-demand • Onsite inventory or Vendor Owned Inventory
Deployment • Rapid deployment
Strategy• Improved lead times and availability
Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
Infrastructure Support, Expansion & Services through the deployment of PODS!• Expansion of Physical Infrastructure utilizing PODS
• Just-In-Time (JIT) Expansion• Just-In-Time (JIT) Inventory• Vendor Owned Inventory (VOI)• Master Services agreement (MSA)
• Pre-designed material PODS• High availability• Establish requirements, standards and specifications

Deployment strategy
Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
Factors to Consider• Physical Footprint• Infrastructure Pathways (Footage)
• Overhead / under floor support structure
• Network or Server Cabinets• PDUs
• Main Distribution Area (MDA)• Patch Panels (Director-MDA-Host)
• MTP/MPO, LC, mLC
• Infrastructure Medium• OM3, OM4, Cat 5e, Cat 6, Cat 6a
Main Distribution Area
10RU High Density Patch Panel
Fiber Cabling
Copper Backbone & Structured Cabling
MTP / MPO PATCH PANELS
Enterprise Cabling Solutions
Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
HIGH PERFORMANCE•All CTI Fiber optic assemblies are tested 100% using industry standard, automated test procedures.
HIGH DENSITY•Multiple configurations to provide the highest possible density.
RAPID DEPLOYMENT•Reduced installation time based on a plug-n-play type factory built and tested Infrastructure offers the ability to complete installation in less than half the time, in most cases, with significantly improved performance.

Additional Options24 & 32 Port Coupling StripsFront / Rear Access Coupling StripsCustom silk screen
64 Port Strips
48 Port Strips
Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
POD within a POD• Advantages
• Limited initial capital outlay (Negotiated)• Standardization of design – 1st time
• Standard platform for deployment
• Deployment• Reduce lead time and installation from months to weeks to days• Reduction of installation expenses• Reduction of operating expenses • Reduction of capital expenditures
Rapid Infrastructure Deployment Through the Use of POD’s
POD within a POD• Standards (TIA-942, Enterprise Standards)
• Network Cabinets, Trunks, Harnesses, Patch Panels• SAN Fabric (Centralized Arrays)

Summary
Product On-demand Deployment Strategy Factors to Consider
• Physical Footprint• Infrastructure Pathways & components
Advantages • JIT deployment • Establish minimum standards• Reduced lead times• Reduced expenses (Capital & operating)• Increase in revenue & productivity
