To Cloud or Not to Cloud?

Definition :nn Cloud computingCloud computing is a model for enabling ubiquitous,

convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.

n This cloud model is composed of five essential characteristics, three service models, and four deployment models.

8

Cloud Computingn Characteristics

q On Demand – Self Servicesq Broad Network Accessq Resource Pooling

n computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model, with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to consumer demand.

q Rapid Elasticityn Capabilities can be elastically provisioned and released, in

some cases automatically, to scale rapidly outward and inward commensurate with demand

q Measured Services

Why Cloud Computing?

n What are the benefits?q Efficiency, Agility, high availabilityq Innovation, Expenditure shiftq Improved productivity

n What are the disadvantages?q Security and Privacyq Dependency (public cloud)q Initial Cost (private cloud)q Knowledge & Skills (private cloud)q Industry Standard

11

Cloud Computing Deployment

Which fits your organization?nn Private Cloud Private Cloud The cloud infrastructure is provisioned for

exclusive use by a single organization comprising multiple consumers (e.g., business units).On premises or Off premises.

nn Community CloudCommunity Cloud The cloud infrastructure is provisioned for exclusive use by a specific community of consumers from organizations that have shared concerns

nn Public Cloud Public Cloud The cloud infrastructure is provisioned for open use by the general public. On the premises of the cloud provider.

nn Hybrid CloudHybrid Cloud The cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more distinct cloud infrastructures (private, community, or public).

Private Cloud Infrastructure: the Approach

n Loosely coupled ourq Network (Cisco, Juniper, Extreme, Force10 etc.)q Servers (IBM, HP, DELL, FUJITSU)q Storage (EMC, NetApp, HP, Fujitsu etc.)q Virtualization OS (Vmware, Microsoft, Citrix etc.)

n Tightly Integrated with standard technologyq IPq iSCSIq LACP (802.3ad) / LAG / MLAGq Ethernet ( 10, 100, 1G, 10G, 40G, 100G )

22

the Approach

n Loosely Coupled Tightly Integrated Approachqq Loosely coupledLoosely coupled our infrastructure resources

(networks, servers and storages) then tightly tightly integratedintegrated them with open standard technology to get the most benefit private cloud infrastructure.

q Less vendor lock-in / more flexible to vendor choicesq More Efforts to implement, to operate and to maintain
