- Personnel to perform OS level administration (install, configure, patch and update)
- Network connectivity from the server to the Louisiana State Network
- Facility costs (floor space, electricity, security, generators, fuel, cooling, etc.)
- Base Operating System licensing costs
- Server hardware and maintenance
- Hardware refresh on end of useful life (typically a five-year cycle)
