Windows Server 2016 Scenarios for SMBs
Server Utilization with Virtualization & Containers
“Businesses today may use only a fraction of their server capacity”
Windows Server 2016 includes support for virtualization and containers at no extra cost

Use virtualization & containers to:

  • Run more apps/workloads on the same server
  • Simplify management and cut costs
  • Increase security of virtualized workloads

VALUE FOR PARTNERS:

  • Sell more Virtual Machine licenses
  • Upsell storage capacity either in local hardware or value-add services such as Azure Storage
  • Cross-sell additional managed IT service offerings
Affordable Disaster Recovery
“If your systems go down, you can lose deals, customers, even your business”
Traditional disaster recovery solutions can be costly; Windows Server 2016 makes DR more affordable

Use storage and backup features to:

  • Deliver real-time, high availability system continuity
  • Manage Disaster Recovery (DR) costs using out of hours network capacity
  • Reduce business risk with backup in multiple locations: on-premises and in the cloud

VALUE FOR PARTNERS:

  • Cross-sell value-add services Azure Site Replica/Storage Replica, or your own hosted services
  • Sell new hardware for expanded DR systems or additional nodes for clusters
High Availability with Failover Clustering
“Keep your business running at the pace you need”
With built-in failover clustering SMBs have access to high availability at no extra cost

With clustering you can achieve:

  • High availability of mission-critical workloads, even during upgrades
  • Spread your risk across different physical office locations/sites
  • Add capacity onsite or in remote sites
  • Conduct live migration of systems, without impacting service levels

VALUE FOR PARTNERS:

  • Cross-sell value-add services i.e. Azure Site Replica/Storage Replica, or your own hosted services
  • Sell new hardware for additional cluster nodes
Flexible and Cost Effective Storage
“Efficiently manage your data requirements and storage costs”
30% of midsize organizations will leverage public cloud infrastructure as a service (IaaS) for backup by 2019, up from 5% today. 1

With storage you can achieve:

  • Scalable storage options to meet your growing data needs
  • Manage spiraling storage costs with flexible storage options
  • Peace of mind having critical data protected onsite and remotely

VALUE FOR PARTNERS:

  • Cross-sell value-add services Azure Site Replica/Storage Replica, or your own hosted services
  • Sell new storage/server hardware
Be Ready for the Cloud
“Move to cloud on your terms, gaining the best of both worlds”
80% of U.S. small businesses will be fully adapted to cloud computing by 2020, more than doubling the current 37 percent rate3

With a Hybrid IT infrastructure you can achieve:

  • Flexibility of control and security of workloads
  • Lower upfront costs of new IT services
  • Faster delivery of IT services for reduced effort
  • Higher performance and lower latency with on-premises

VALUE FOR PARTNERS:

  • Resell a wide range of cloud services
  • Cross-sell additional managed IT service offerings
Investing in Your First Server
“Gain efficiency and improved security with centralized data, files and management”
52% of small businesses in the U.S. have no server4

With a centralized server you can:

  • Simplify your daily tasks by easily connecting to and sharing files and programs
  • Protect your critical business data with cost effective backup
  • Enhance security through centralized management of users and anti-virus/malware
  • Establish a cloud-ready IT platform for the future

VALUE FOR PARTNERS:

  • Sell new server/networking hardware
  • Resell value-add cloud services such as Azure Storage
  • Cross-sell additional managed IT service offerings
