Way to CloudAndrew

Why, Cloud?

• Application with seasonal traffic requirement

• Disaster recovery

• Test environments

• Fast provisioning

Why Cloud, Really?

• Application with seasonal traffic requirement

• if you can predict it, you can take other arrangements

• Disaster recovery

• AWS can help, but AWS doesn’t provide all

• Test environments

• more important thing is stitching with production

• Fast provisioning

• tens of server can be propared in a few hours too.

• provision is one thing, operation is others.

Before change

• Simplify

• Standardize

• Automate

• Abstract

After that

•You’re ready for the cloud

Simplify & Standalize

• Simplification mostly means simple process

• Your resources should be provided in same way

• Using Central Configuration system

• Using Central logging/monitoring system

• Using standard/common API

Automate

• Try to avoid manual setup or intervention.

• Every process should be programmed. ( need code and developer)

• need event based processing ( need central coordination )

Setup your app in Simple, Standardazied, Automated Way

Setup Dev

• Create Cookbooks for PHP and MySQL

Abstraction

• Use identical tool for the bringing up the server

• Chef API , and tools

• To inintiate Server

• vagrant up

Setup Dev.

Time for the productionAWS Provides Chef server: * You can use the same

configuration tool * You can use the same

management tool * from this, you can have

identical but little bit different experience

Bringing up the ProductionAWS Opsworks

Again Same tool

• Remember the command line?

• vagrant up

Bring up the Prod.61.22.23.56

things to know

• Cloud should be a tool that your express your long & deep experience.

• AWS has lots of way to help you.

• EC2, RDS, S3 for basic operation.

• SQS, SWF, ELB, Route53 and other services for comprehesive use.
