Hybrid cloud services
(HCX)
—Security-rich point-to-point interconnectivity around the world
—Loosely coupled interconnectivity provided through software-defined network (SDN)
topologies to other clouds and data centers
— Integrated capabilities designed to provide faster, security-rich, movement of workloads,
using well-known industry methodologies, vMotion and vSphere Replication

What are hybrid cloud services?
HCX – Hybridity
— Seamless extension of the data
center landscape with unified
management and support
HCX – Migration
— Faster, security-rich infrastructure
— Migration from on-premises to the cloud
• Loosely coupled interconnectivity
provided through software-
defined network topologies
• WAN optimized with
deterministic network routing
• Multiple faster, security-rich,
more reliable connections to
cloud and data centers
• Greater ease of use through
integrated console
• Bidirectional workload mobility
• Industry standard vMotion and
vSphere Replication

Migrate Workloads in Bulk
• Utilizes replication to migrate
• Source VM remains online during
replication
• When replica is ready, can
schedule switchover or complete
immediately
• Great for mass-migration of VMs • Backwards compatible to ESX 5.1!

Seamlessly Migrate VMs Across Infrastructure Boundaries
• Deliver vMotion between on-premise and target DCs
• Bi-directional, no vendor lock-in
• Compatible with vSphere 5.5+ (no upgrade required)
• Works across trust domain boundaries + multi-tenancy
• Provides live and cold migration support from UI and API for VMs
Overview
Key Use Case: Application Migration
Benefits• Migrate workloads into cloud without impact to app owner
• Bring back your workload at will, anytime!
• Disaster avoidance by quickly migrating VMs to the target site

• Extend your DC; integrate resources
• Enable existing apps across DCs; no need to re-design even if VMs moved off-prem
• No need to upgrade vSphere on-prem to stretch networks
• NSX is not required, but secuiry policy migration is possible if NSX is used on premise
Benefits
• Quickly stretch one or many L2 networks
• Seamlessly move VMs and keep same IP and MAC
• Egress path optimization; no traffic tromboning
• vMotion-aware Proximity Routing
• MTU emulation over the WAN
• Elephant/mice traffic engineering / fairness

Scenario:
— ACME corporation, based in Mexico, wants to expand into Canada and Europe.
— HCX has already deployed IBM Cloud Foundation instances in Toronto and Paris.
— Now it wants to extend its on-premises network in Mexico into these data centers and begin
moving its workloads into the company’s new Canadian and European headquarters.
Demonstration
Demonstration:
— Show setup and connectivity within the console

— Choose your first workload and discover how IBM
and VMware can help you set up a world-class hybrid
environment.
— IBM is looking for clients to conduct proof of concepts
(PoC), sites where it can deploy and demonstrate the
service within their environments.
Let’s get started
— The POC criteria are:
— Willingness to be a design partner
— Willingness to be a reference
— Must deploy vSphere v5.1, 5.5 or 6.x
— Deploy any number of integrations, cloud to cloud
or on premises to cloud, during initial proof-of-
concept (PoC) phase
— Destination can be VMware Cloud Foundation
(VCF) or vCenter as a Service (VCS) offerings on
IBM Cloud
— Sufficient internet throughput speeds required to
demonstrate capabilities
— No-charge 30-day usage prior to service turned into
