Public Cloud

Cloud Definitions• Private cloud. The cloud infrastructure is operated

solely for an organization. It may be managed by the organization or a third party and may exist on premise or off premise.

• Public cloud. The cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling cloud services.

• Hybrid cloud. The cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load-balancing between clouds).

• Fujitsu Launches Global Cloud Platform Service Powered By Windows Azure By Larry Grothaus

Today, Fujitsu and Microsoft announced the upcoming August 2011 availability of the Fujitsu Global Cloud Platform service, which marks the first official production release of a Windows Azure platform appliance delivered by Fujitsu.  The new service offering has already been running in Fujitsu’s datacenter and available on a trial basis to companies since April 21, 2011.

Build Your Own Private Cloud

Build Your Own Private Cloud

• Your private cloud will deliver many of the benefits of public cloud computing– Self-service– Scalability– Elasticity– Resource Pooling

• The Hyper-V Cloud Deployment Guides are a collection of best practices based on a Microsoft Consulting Services framework. They are designed to help you deploy a private cloud solution using Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V, System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2, and the Virtual Machine Manager Self-Service Portal 2.0.

SCVMM Server

• Runs SCVMM Service• Connects to a SQL Database• Is the Default Library Server

SCVMM Administration Console

• Create, deploy, and manage virtual machines and templates

• Monitor and manage hosts (Windows Server® 2008/ Windows Server® 2008R2 Hyper-V™, Microsoft® Virtual Server 2005 and VMware® Virtual Center managed ESX servers) and library servers

• Manage library objects and jobs • Manage global configuration settings

Security Considerations

• Understanding and planning the default and custom user roles that are defined in the self-service portal.

• Planning and preparing the service accounts. • Understanding the ports and protocols required

for establishing communication channels between various self-service portal components.

• Hardening the Web server that will run the VMMSSP website component.

•

Security Considerations

• Accounts and Groups• Service Accounts• Firewall Exceptions

Hardening The SSP Website

• Configuring SSL for the Self-Service Portal• Disabling ISAPI Handlers That Are not Needed

ISAPI Handlers

How To Disable ISAPI Filters

1. On the Web server, in Administrative Tools, open Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager. 2. Expand Sites, and navigate to the IIS website configured for the self-service portal. 3. In the Features View pane, under IIS, open Handler Mappings. 4. For each handler that is not listed in the preceding table, select the handler, click Remove, and then click Yes.

Virtual Machine Host

Host Groups

• Set aside resources on the hosts for the use of the host operating system.

• Designate hosts that are used for self-service. • Designate which hosts are connected to a

storage area network (SAN). (This is a best practice.)

• Enable the automatic placement of virtual machines on the best host in a group of hosts.

SCVMM Library Server

SCVMM Server Placement

One is enough except…

• When the development and test environments are managed separately from the production virtual environment

• When the virtual environments grows—or is planned to grow—beyond the supported maximum of 400 hosts and 8,000 virtual machines

Network Considerations

• Connectivity • Bandwidth • Network traffic

Storage Considerations

• DAS• Fiber Channel• iSCSI

Monitoring and Reporting

• Provided through the Server Virtualization Management Pack for System Center Operations Manager 2007.

• Before reports can be viewed and used, Operations Manager must be installed and the Server Virtualization Management Pack deployed.
