software defined operator
DESCRIPTION
During the past few years we’ve seen how our entire data-center becomes software defined. This include the Compute, Storage, Network and also Configuration. This new data centre is the cloud. The missing piece in the puzzle: While this is pretty much old news there is one big thing that is missing in this puzzle and that is the operator itself. The operator is responsible for running processes such: * Installation of new apps * Upgrades and update of new features or patches * Performance tuning * Handling failure * Managing the capacity to meet the scaling demand. Most of those tasks today involves lots of human intervention. Users who realised that gap try to mitigate that by putting their own custom automation - usually that comes in a form of scripts on-top of the configuration management. Those custom scripts tend to grow fairly quickly to the point where they become unmanageable. This presentation will introduce how we can use an orchestrator to automate those tasks and by that create a software defined Operator.TRANSCRIPT

The Biggest Revolution?

Transformed the Entire Industry
• Automobile enters the mass market• 10x more cars a day• 4 months pay to
buy a car
How is this Relevant to DevOps?
DevOps is the Industrialization of IT
IT Pre DevOps IT Post DevOps
DevOps is all about...
• Releasing new features and products faster and at scale• 1000s of updates
per day is typical
What’s Changed?
It seems like everything BUT the kitchen sink is software defined these
days.You were saying?
Everything is Software Defined
We Can Automate Everything

The Impact of Human Error
14
80%of outages impacting mission-critical services will be caused by people and process issues
50%of those outages will be caused by change/configuration/release integration and hand-off issues
Orchestration = Software Operation

Real Life Example
(HP Print)
• 30 HP Helion Public Cloud accounts
• 500+ compute instances
• 1400 Peak deployments per day
• 100+ compute instances per management cluster
• 100x developers doing deployments in a consistent fashion
• <2H Move from HP Helion Public Cloud tenant to a fully provisioned and deployed service
Orchestrating Networks and Apps
Does this Mark the End of IT Operations?
