We’ll cover the following topics: 1. Create a Self-Service Portal for vSphere and Public Clouds Are virtualization and cloud the same thing? How does vSphere fit with cloud self-service? 2. Create and Manage Portable Workloads Can I move from vSphere to AWS? and back? Choosing between in-place management, migration and portability. 3. Provide Visibility and Control for Self-Service Ensure workloads meet corporate standards. Manage capacity and costs.TRANSCRIPT

Cloud Usage is Ubiquitous
Hybrid is the Preferred Strategy
Dev, Test and Web are the Top Workloads
Self-Service is Needed to Reap the Benefits
VMware Dominates in Private Environments
But is Virtualization a Cloud?

“If you think a private cloud is just another name for
virtualization automation, think again. The business sees
value from cloud services that deliver agility, autonomy, and
pay-per-use economics. If your private cloud doesn’t deliver
this, the business will look elsewhere to get this value, even
going so far as to build its own.” James Staten and Lauren E. Nelson

• Developers and cloud
users can leverage
RightScale in parallel
• Transparent view of
vSphere workloads in both
tools, regardless of where
launched

Make
Portable
• Multi-hypervisor support
• Preserve hypervisor options
• Lifecycle-based multi-cloud
deployment
• Dev vs. Test vs. Staging vs. Prod
• New (Unpredictable) vs. Mature (Steady-
State)
• Disaster Recovery
• Private for primary, Public for backup
• Cloudbursting
• Base capacity in private, burst to public
