  • utsourced cloud IaaS services in this SOW:
  • Meet Eskom’s business needs for highly available, reliable, scalable and secure services.
  • Maintain compliance with industry standards and government regulations (e.g.. ITIL,

ISO27000, POPI, and Six Sigma).

  • Acquire services with availability guarantees backed by service levels (SLs) and associated

penalties in the form of fee reductions with full earn-back opportunities.

  • Acquire services that can leverage operational scale and best practices to achieve optimum

commercial price performance.

  • Acquire ongoing feedback mechanisms to ensure performance meets expectations.
  • Scalable Hybrid IaaS environment
  • Cloud enabled infrastructure
  • Automated
  • On-demand and Self-service enabled
  • Cloud management platform enabled
  • Metered cloud computing resources consumption.
slide-45
SLIDE 45

Objectives

Personnel: The Provider will be responsible for providing appropriately skilled staffing to meet all cloud IaaS services, roles and responsibilities with the relevant service levels set forth in the SOW. Policies, Procedures and Standards: The Supplier needs to adhere to Eskom’s Information Security Policy and Eskom Architecture Standards.

slide-46
SLIDE 46

License Agreements

Licensing Agreements: The subscription software licenses that are coupled with the Infrastructure within scope are deemed included as part of the asset sale. These include the Operating System and Security software. Virtualisation, Backup and Storage Software will be offered for use by the Supplier. The Supplier is responsible for paying support and maintenance fees for these licences. These fees will be

  • ffset during monthly billing. Conversely the Supplier will supply their own Virtualisation, Backup

and Storage Software at their own cost and also pay Support fees. Hardware maintenance and support will be the responsibility of the Supplier for the duration of the contract. Eskom will terminate the current hardware maintenance and support agreements with the OEMs/vendors from the effective date. Both the licenses and hardware maintenance and support agreements will be deemed included as part of the asset sale provided it is within the bounds of the legal contract with the current OEMs/vendors.

slide-47
SLIDE 47

Hybrid Cloud IaaS Service Roles and Responsibilities

  • The IaaS infrastructure should not be shared with the vendor’s other tenants apart from the

public IaaS environment.

  • In the SOW, we have separated the services into a support model for the Baseline

infrastructure and the Private/Public Cloud Services.

  • Eskom has defined a roles and responsibilities matrix between the Service Provide and

Eskom for the required services using the RASCI chart approach.

  • Eskom requires more than just the activities performed at the cloud IaaS by the Supplier.

These activities, include but are not limited to planning and analysis, service-level monitoring and reporting, and performance management.

slide-48
SLIDE 48

Hybrid Cloud IaaS Service – General Roles and Responsibilities

General roles and responsibilities: The following services are required to be provided by the Supplier:

  • Continuous refresh of the baseline IT infrastructure
  • Provisioning of IT Infrastructure to cater for Eskom user demands
