Key Considerations

# 7

Cloud Management!

Why would you build a private cloud? •  Workload and infrastructure interaction •  Security / Regulation / Compliance •  Latency •  User experience •  Cost over a longer time horizon

And of course, AGILITY…

# 8

Cloud Management!

When would you need a hybrid or multi-cloud?

•  What if your application outgrows the private cloud? •  Common desire is for “cloud-bursting” •  Regulation / Compliance for parts of the application •  Most common:

•  Multiple clouds used by different parts of the same organization for different applications, with each app in one cloud

Cloud Management!

Use Cases

# 10

Cloud Management!

Use Case: Untested Workloads •  Scalable applications with uncertain demand •  Public cloud used as “proving ground” for new applications •  If applications fail, they are allowed to run their course in the

public cloud until they are end-of-lifed •  If an application gains traction, it remains in the public cloud

during its growth phase •  When stability of workload is reached, the application is

transitioned into the private cloud

Use Case: HA / DR using Hybrid Cloud

•  Production environment in one cloud •  DR environment in a second cloud •  Most common configuration is the “Warm DR” scenario

•  Replicating slave in a second cloud •  All other servers in non-operational state •  Failure of production environment requires promotion of slave to master,

launching of “standby” servers, and DNS reassignment

RackConnect, Direct Connect, Hybrid for Metro Area

•  Production environment in one cloud •  DR environment in a second cloud •  Most common configuration is the “Warm DR” scenario

•  Replicating slave in a second cloud •  All other servers in non-operational state •  Failure of production environment requires promotion of slave to master,

Use Cases: IT Vending Machine •  Users select one of several preconfigured tech stacks •  Isolated dev/test environments
