ClearPath Forward Services for Data Exchange

Assessment ServiceUnisys assesses the client requirements to see if Data Exchange is a possible solution to solve their

problem.

Installation and Configuration ServiceUnisys installs all DE components on the ClearPath Host and Runtime environments such that the

provided sample transformation (BDT and CDT) is ready to run.

Proof of Concept ServiceUnisys sets-up and configures a running DE solution using a client-supplied test

environment. Functional capabilities testing. Stress testing. Recovery testing. Performance testing.

Implementation ServiceUnisys takes a successful Proof of Concept, completes all the required transformation definitions,

and deploys the solution into a production environment.

Administrator Training ServiceUnisys trains personnel to run and operate the Data Exchange environment. This includes creation

of transformations, deployment of transformations, monitoring, maintenance and recovery.

DevOps and ClearPathPutting it all together


What is DevOps?


Why use DevOps

• Developer’s– Older Development Tools

– Poor Source Control and Configuration Management

– Lack of Test Systems

• If you use outsourcer for development resources– Lost of control over IP

– Lack of Governance and Coding standards

– Minimal ClearPath Specific Expertise

• Testing– Little/No Automation in build and test

– Limited testing environments

• Deployment and Process Flow– Little/No Automation in Process Flow and Tracking


The Approach

Assess the current state

Roadmap to a future state

Plan in detail -transformation to the future state

Execute masterplan

Start operating in transformed

mode

Unisys DevOps Capability Model

• Development Process

– Agile Development

– Visual IDEs (Eclipse, Visual Studio)

– Version/Source Control (Sure, TFS, …)

• Code Quality and Governance – Hatha KR

• Development Testing – Developer Studio (2017)

• Build, Test, and Process Automation – SMA OpCon

an experimental, agile organization focused on time-to-market, rapid application

evolution, and, in particular, tight alignment with business units.

Dorado 4300 / 6300 / 8300 Availability

• Good - Single instruction processing module – Very infrequent failure (5 years MTBS), but

– Persistent failure may result in outage for hours for repair and recovery

• Better - HA configuration provides standby hardware to reboot quickly. Decision to failover is a human decision. Future development will optionally allow the management server S/W to decide– Automate the failover process once the decision has been made

– Small number of minutes to recover

• Best - XPC-L clustering – Multi-server for performance

– Multi-server for highest availability, near non-stop(database software versions must be the same on all servers)

Dorado 4300 / 6300 / 8300 High Availability

• Active and Standby PMMs comprise an HA configuration

• Standby PMM is in a “warm” state, dedicated to providing high availability.

• Each PMM in partition shares the PSIOPs that provide connection to mass storage.

• Failover control by user, via simple one-button command

• Reduces failover time and increases failover automation to meet or exceed processes typically performed on a partitioned Dorado CMOS system.

• Each partition of a two partition system can be configured as HA.

2017 ClearPath Forward Platform Strategy

• Technology refresh on Dorado Mid-range, High-end, and Premium Platforms

• Performance improvements focused on Premium models

– Maintain performance on Mid-range and High-end models

• Fabric Infrastructure optional for all Libra & Dorado models

– Required for select solutions – such as OS 2200 QProcessor

– 10/40 Gigabit Ethernet to client network infrastructure


Mariner 6 (Next Dorado Intel) Plan

• Mid-range, High-end, and Premium models based on distributed server architecture on Unisys Intel based platforms

• High Availability standard on Mid-Range, High-End, and Premium offerings– 2 PMMs, 2 - 4 ISMs, 2 Op Servers

• Non-redundant configurations only for Entry model– 1 PMM, 1 ISM, 1 Op Server for base configuration

– Optional HA components: PMM, ISMs, Op Server

• Metering and MIPS-based pricing ( most models)– Dorado 4470 Metered only offering

• Minimum OS 2200 release 17.0

• Target availability mid 2017

XPC-L Future Direction

• Moving to switched Ethernet interconnect

– Reduces channel count in XPC-L server

– Eliminates need for IO expansion racks

– Reduces XPC-L server from 4u to 2u

– Easier to expand the number of hosts

• Changing XPC-L server OS from Windows to Linux• Better support for Ethernet channels

• Engineering efficiencies

• Target release mid-2018

ClearPath Forward™ Clients Want…..

APPLICATIONS!• Clients want to control the

application layer

• Application layer = clients unique business value

• Applications need to be easy to develop, change, run and manage

INFRASTRUCTURE?• Applications need optimum operating

environment

• Some clients want to focus on their business and not on IT; they want others to manage or provide and manage the infrastructure

• Other clients continue to want to own their IT

ClearPath Forward Hybrid CloudSoftware Focused Strategy


ClearPath Forward Road to SoftwareTransitioning to the Software Defined Future

2014Introduction of the Fabric, New business models: ClearPath Dorado and Libra systems include a high speed, highly secure private cloud

2015 Complete move to Intel: ClearPath Forward platforms surpass performance of all CMOS based systems

2016 –2015

ClearPath begins the transition to Software Editions: Introducing Software Edition environments, MCP & OS 2200 Express — targeting academia and skills! ClearPath MCP Bronze & Silver — SW only replacements for entry platforms including deployment on industry virtualization

2018Cloud Enablement Begins: ClearPath Forward Hybrid

Systems; client fabric; hybrid or private cloud, location agnostic

2020ClearPath MCP completes move to Software Edition: Software Edition environments; MCP product line supplanted with Software-only stacks

Complete the move to Software-only ClearPath environments: ClearPath Forward environments; the entire ClearPath product line is software deployable

2017OS 2200 begins the transition to Software Editions: ClearPath OS 2200 Developer Studio, entry level development including deployment on industry virtualization

2008 ClearPath move to Intel: Delivering the first all Intel based ClearPath platform


Dorado OS 2200 Systems Today – Summary

• Assembled by Unisys supply chain

• Hardware components specified and tested by engineering and assembled following guidelines defined by engineering

• For Intel based Dorado systems, a layer of “firmware” generally referred to in engineering as “System Architecture Interface Layer (SAIL)” has been developed by Unisys engineering and is installed by Unisys supply chain, to enable the specified Intel based system to take on the personality of a Dorado system

• When this system is installed at a customer site, the OS 2200 system software, provided by Unisys and partners, is installed on the system

• This allows the system to connect to existing storage peripherals containing OS 2200 file systems and programs, and execute and operate on those files and program without change


OS 2200 Software Series – Summary

• Intent of OS 2200 Series is to support deployment of this entire software execution stack in a more flexible manner

– Varying hardware platforms chosen by clients but meeting minimum specifications identified by Unisys engineering

– Various Cloud and virtualization environments

– Without the requirement for supply chain assembly

– Majority of the installation occurring on site by the client or Unisys services

– This will occur in a set of phases, over a period of several years, with increasing levels of capability, performance, automation, and availability / reliability, in each subsequent release
