Hybrid Cloud

Next …

The cloud vendor provides• the ability to use hardware • as Service (IaaS)• on demand basis• that can be rapidly provisioned and decommissioned.

Cloud BenefitsCost-Saving - Businesses no longer

need to invest and maintain costly physical equipment.

Agility - avoids silo operations culture and opens the way to faster reaction time to meet business demands.

Scalability - you are not fixed to specific hardware, your infrastructure is build via code.

Benefits Private & Public (HybridCloud)Private Cloud BenefitsControl - Specific governance and/or compliance requirements can force you to use private server architecture.

Classification - Data is the new currency.https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2015/08/is-data-the-new-currency/

…. my experience with Hybrid Cloud is limited to a development environment built part on Azure and part on local servers. It worked quite good but there are some traps you have to care about. Apart of that, I'm interested to learn from others their

experiences; coming from trading and finance industries, there is some skeptics about moving data in clouds, so an hybrid solution

could leverage the change.

Group Experience

… I do have some experiences with Cloud but they are rather in the early evaluation phase like compliance checks, high level

architectural designs, compatibility checks, Cloud readiness checks of our services, ROI calc etc.. Unfortunately, the project does not pass the compliance check and has been parked since than. So I don't think i can really share any production experience.

Group Experience

I do a lot of work with Docker so to me different Cloud providers are a simple utility to host portable applications.

I haven't really researched it but there must be some kind of Cloud aggregator service providing resources from whatever provider has them at the lowest cost. That said, there may be significant differences or incompatibilities which prevents doing

this easily. Also I have run into problems with using providers where there underlying technologies

prevented me from doing what I wanted to do (for example I discovered Amazon was running on Xen when I started getting error messages that the software I

was trying to use did not run on Xen). What would be interesting to me is an analysis of the different providers, their cost

structures, how they differ from each other, what problems they have, and how they support Docker.

Group Experience

….ich denke, dass ich mich vor allem über konkrete Hybrid Anwendungsfälle schlau machen will und solche aus unserer (T-

Systems / Telekom) Perspektive einbringen kann.

…Unfortunately i don't have a working experience that I could share.

Audience Cloud Experience

Why Cloud Adoption Fails• Lack of specific cloud

architecture skills • Cloud Paradigm wrong

implemented• Cloud-Readiness for

workloads not checked• Workload Visibility not under

control• Policy & Governance Policies

not enforced

• Automation and Standardization wrong structured

• Performance Issues and you don’t know why

• Change of operational model not anticipated

• unknown dependencies – not cloud ready

AWS Global Infrastructure

AWS Availability Zones• At least 2 Availability Zones

per region

• Cluster of data centers

• Physically and geographically isolated

• Connected through low latency links

• Ideal for HA deployments

AWS Foundation Services

AWS Platform Services

Challenge Cloud Readiness

• Which workloads can you move into cloud?

• Which cloud platform meets your requirements?

• How can you implement the new cloud paradigm?

• Which type of migration can you use?

• Who is involved and who has to be trained?

• What are your expected costs?

• Which applications and business services are dependent?

• What are your security concerns?

• What is best practices?• How does a possible

migration roadmap looks like?

• What operational aspects change?

Summary - Hybrid Cloud Management

Native Cloud Application (NCA) refers to a type of computer software that natively utilizes services and infrastructure provided by cloud computing providers such as Amazon EC2 or Force.com. NCAs exhibit a combined usage of the three fundamental technologies:

• Computational grid (loosely e.g. MapReduce [1][not in citation given]

• Data grids (e.g. distributed in-memory data caches)• Auto-scaling on any managed infrastructure
