Pros and cons of cloud computing

• Utility or subscription billing at a reduced cost

• Avoid capital expenditure (no physical infrastructure)

• Pay for what you use

• Single point of service for all users

• Any time, anywhere access to the information

• Easier to maintain and support from the host company

• Quick and easy to set up

• Scalability

Types of Cloud

...and it’s very important which types of workloads you are planning to host and in which cloud

There are two main flavours of IaaS Clouds:

Management

Server Cluster

Server Cluster

Server Cluster

Enterprise Networking (e.g., VLAN)

Enterprise Storage (e.g., SAN)

Software Defined Networks (e.g., Security Groups, EIP, ELB,...)

Server Racks

• Intended for “Cloud applications” (web-scale

applications)

• Designed for scale

• VM failure acceptable

• Limited high availability in zones/ POD’s

(No guarantee on zone reliability)

• Applications required to be distributed across

availability zones for redundancy

• Applications to be designed to handle node level

failure

Software Defined Networks (e.g., Security Groups, EIP, ELB,...)

Enterprise Class IaaS

• Intended for Enterprise class applications

• Designed for performance

• VM is protected

• Highly availability network

• Achieve significant reliability for applications

running in single zone

• Achieve redundancy by replicating to secondary

zone

• Existing workloads will run reliably

Possible to categorise workloads into two areas

26

Cloud Workloads

Traditional Workloads Distributed (Cloud) Workloads

• Reliable Hardware platform• High performance• Provides Disaster Recovery

capability

• Expect failure. Build apps that can withstand infrastructure failure

• Build application for multi-site redundancy across zones

Expect reliability. Protect entire cloud.

Enterprise Class IaaS (ECI) Commodity Cloud

Expect failure. Design app for it.

Cloud Service Provider Selection

28

1. Do they provide the Cloud Service that meets you

needs? Commodity v. Enterprise

2. Do they have in-house Professional Services to assist /

perform Cloud migrations?

3. Flexible Offering? Connectivity Options?

4. Data Sovereignty

5. SLA’s? Do they align to your business?

6. Pricing? Can they financially justify?

7. Security. Does their offering assist you in meeting your

industry regulation compliance? PCI-DSS, etc.

8. Help Desk Support? Service Desk Certification (ISO

20000, ITIL)

Page 29: Three perspective on migrating to Cloud

Criteria for Cloud Service Provider Selection

29

Security

•Regulation Compliance•Data Ownership & Transferability

•Privacy•Provider Transparency•Auditability

Company and Facilities

•Financial Stability•Data Centre Locations•3rd Party Certifications(eg. ISO, ITIL)

•Network Services•Help Desk Support

Pricing

•Pricing Metrics Comparisons•Fixed vs Variable Rates•In Use vs Inactive•Software Licensing Costs and Models

Compatibility

•Help Desk Support•Network Connectivity & Bandwidth

•Software Supported•Programming Language Offerings

Transaction Performance

•Application Availability•Data Accessibility•Processing Speeds•Load Balancing•Scaling Capabilities•SLA Offerings

Storage Performance

•Storage Availability•Storage Type•Scaling Capabilities

Cloud Migration Methodology

31

Assess & Plan Design & Build Pilot Commission

• Assess Networks and Security architecture

• Assess Applications, workloads and dependencies

• Determine Migration requirements, rollback plan and risks

• Develop high level network architecture, migration strategy and rollout plan

• Develop network and security design

• Determine VM server configuration design

• Network• Storage• Backup• Replication

• Document migration schedule

• Deploy and configure network and security design

• Define Pilot objective• Document Pilot test plan• Migrate pilot servers• Configure servers as per

configuration design• Perform user acceptance

testing (UAT)• Document pilot results

What is the best way to connect to the cloud and how do we migrate my server environment?

What’s the best design to meet my requirements and what is the migration schedule timeline?

How do we deliver on time, within budget, to our organisation?

Will the design and migration strategy meet my success criteria?

• Migrate servers as per migration schedule

• Configure servers as per configuration design

• Perform user acceptance testing (UAT)

• Optimise environment
