WHAT MAKES ME EXITED?

• CloudDemocratizes technology. Offers efficiency, security, scalability and mobility

• ServerlessThe abstraction infrastructure

• ContainersOffers the promise of portability and agility

LET’S TALK DATA GRAVITY

LET’S TALK DATA GRAVITY

“Data gravity is an analogy of the nature of data and its ability to attract

additional applications and services.”

-Dave McCrory, 2010 -

WHERE AND HOW DO I STORE MY DATA?

DATA IN THE CLOUD OR ON-PREMISES?

• CostsPay-per-Use vs major investments and operational costs

• Privacy and SecurityValue added services vs possible limited security resources and expertise

• ScalabilityUnlimited real-time scalability

• RedundancyFault Tolerance, Disaster Recovery and Globally available

HOW TO STORE DATA?Traditional data storage appliances

THE ALTERNATIVESoftware Defined Storage

Software

Hardware independent Storage

Storage

SOFTWARE DEFINED BENEFITS

• Using commodity hardwareEasy to replace, less expensive

• Storage virtualizationMassive (unlimited) scalability, easy to move

• Object, File, Block BasedEnabling large storage clusters, efficient use of storage

• Fully managed

SDS EXAMPLES

HOW ABOUT MICROSERVICES?

HOW ABOUT CONTAINERS?HOW ABOUT CONTAINERS?

BENEFITS

• PortabilityDeployed easily to multiple different platforms

• IndependentA container can be deployed independently

• ConsistentApplications in containers will run the same, regardless of where they are deployed

• EfficiencyLess resources, rapidly deployed, patched, or scaled

BREAK THROUGH

Break-up your applications, create microservices,

decentralize data.

Run containers, go Serverless.

Use Software Defined Storage, extend storage features.

Use Cloud, create a hybrid environment.

Serve storage out of containers.

MY ENVIRONMENTA Managed Cloud Service

Azure AKSGoogle GKE Amazon EKS

ROOKA Storage Orchestrator for Kubernetes

CEPHA software defined storage platform

DEMO

DRAWBACKS

• Empower - Learning CurveAzure, Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, Tiller, Rook, Ceph….

• Transform - Loosely coupled complexityProtocols, security, versioning, management….

• Optimize - Containers change ownershipYour build it, you run it…
