We know there are thousands of monitoring products out there and it can be tough to decide what to use these days. At 6fusion, we do not see ourselves as direct replacements to these products; instead we fill a missing gap and add additional value points that align strongly with the financial goals for organizations.
Key benefits that 6fusion can add over traditional monitoring platforms:
Nobody really knows the true cost (Buyers) or value (Sellers) of IT in the supply chain because there is no standardized way to quantify or measure it like other Utilities. Standardization is the mother of transparency, and transparency is the foundation for any modern system for analytics and action.
6fusion is leading the way with the industry’s first standardized, patented, vendor agnostic capacity and consumption metric for the IT supply chain: The Workload Allocation Cube (kWAC).
By simplifying your IT Financial Efficiency conversation, we help you determine calculated actions to improve efficiency and communicate across the organization.
Many software companies today like to think they can deliver IT financial benchmarks, but only 6fusion delivers true cost and price transparency. 6fusion unleashes the power to compare the financial efficiency of internal apps and infrastructures head to head as well as to external market prices
This drives the financial equation. Answer questions like:
Should I buy assets and software or rent them?
Could I get a better deal from my supplier(s)?
How much of my infrastructure is unused - can I eliminate this waste?
Can I recover capital budgets?
How do I move these assets off my Balance sheet?
How should I influence the behavior of my users?
How should I justify my actions to my peers/superiors?
With 6fusion you can perform Infrastructure baselines quickly and easily without installing any kind of additional apps - we take snapshots of your historical data and give you a robust baseline report.
The report will provide you many insights including:
Initial baseline requires no software installation and no service disruptions
Understand your true cost of compute across many timeframes - by hour, day, week, month, year
Compare and contrast baselines against internal infrastructures or even public cloud price indices
IT is a perishable commodity - find out how much wasted resources effects your financial efficiency
Slice and dice your baseline data by infrastructure, machine, system tags, or even geography
Accurately profile your usage patterns; you can use this information to right-size your infrastructure resources and plan for upcoming hardware refresh cycles
Provide valuable decision insights to help model out your business scenarios and forecast impacts to capacity and cost
By 2020 more than 80% of IT services will be purchased on consumption. Consumption based financing by 6fusion harnesses the power of the Utility so buyers and sellers can transact traditional on-premise IT infrastructure solutions in neutral, standardized, “pay as you consume” model.
The many benefits of this model include:
Zero or low risk billing options
Transparent collection of consumption data
Integrated monthly invoicing - just like a utility bill
Seamless internal chargeback features
Operating vs Capital accounting treatments
Price indexing vs the Cloud
True cost – with actual usage alignment
