What is Extensible Strategy?

• Integrate and extend

• Leverages existing processes and tools

• Managing upward and outward

• Scales to add new cloud types

• Holistic approach

Challenges

• Common mistakes

• Starting too small or too big

• Waiting too long to figure out a strategy

• Attempting too much at once

• Not determining a clear leader

• Consequences

• Inefficient

• Not scalable

• Not agile

• Unprepared for the future

Cloud Management Considerations

Security

• Who and what?

• Extend security policies into

cloud

• Driven by your directory

• Single sign-on

• Auditing

Cost controls

• Monitoring usage of cloud is a

new world

• Controls and chargeback

• Cloud sprawl is real

Meeting service levels

• Delivering VMs

• Delivering cloud resources

• Delivering applications

• Automating infrastructure and

applications

• Tools and APIs

Capacity planning and management

• Cloud usage and Trends

– Users

– Cloud resources

• Activity uniqueness

• Concurrent and interactions

• Private Infrastructure and public

resources

Monitoring

• Leverage existing monitoring

systems and processes

• Application level vs host level

• For private clouds, health of

the cloud layer

• Container monitoring

ITSM/Policies

• Remedy and ServiceNow

• Cloud resources fit into

existing ITSM structure?

• New policies or repurpose

existing flows for virtual

resources

• Budgetary restrictions vs

access limitations?

• How about a hybrid or multi-

cloud environment?

Preparing for a multi/hybrid cloud world

• Challenge gets compounded

with a hybrid cloud

• Foundation set to scale

• Now or later?
