The Latest Talk about Cloud

2

Today cloud computing is a proven delivery model with impressive agility

and efficiency benefits.

The trend is to expand to more flexible models to expand the scope of

innovative, value-added business services.

“Should we do it?” “How should we do it

to get the most value?”

Thanks to Intel’s construction of a private

cloud on a highly virtualized foundation, time

to provision infrastructure dropped from 90

days to an average of 45 minutes.

Five Steps: Virtualization

to Private Cloud Services

6

1. Develop a cloud strategy

2. Manage business process change

3. Organize IT around service delivery

4. Put the right technology in place

5. Manage a data-driven cloud

Page 7: Virtualization and Cloud Computing Guide to Building Private IaaS

1. Develop a Cloud Strategy

Establish where you want to go.

Describe the anticipated benefits and return on your investment

Set short-, mid-, and long-term goals

Identify workloads and user groups for each project phase

Describe your cloud architecture and its components

Identify client devices you will support

Define monitoring and management approach; define success

2. Manage Business Process Change

Get the business on board and create strong partnerships.

Communicate benefits and milestones to users

Develop a plan to manage expectations for each project phase

Engage business users to define and document new and

existing business processes

Document workflows to minimize human control points

Implement new IT processes (for example, capacity

provisioning and chargeback)

8

CLOUD TIP: Strong partnerships encourage cloud adoption and are essential to your success.

Page 9: Virtualization and Cloud Computing Guide to Building Private IaaS

3. Organize IT around Service Delivery

Evolve IT’s role to a broker of cloud services.

Determine how joint business-IT teams will

work together

Hire or train for cloud-related skills

Weigh user needs against the delivery options to

reduce organizational risk, improve resource

utilization, and monitor demand

9

CLOUD TIP: By offering private cloud services, you gain experience that you can extend later to brokering

public services in a hybrid cloud model.

Page 10: Virtualization and Cloud Computing Guide to Building Private IaaS

4. Put the Right Technology in Place

Implement each phase to build on the previous one.

Determine technology requirements for short-, medium-,

and long-term goals

Use reference architectures and out-of-the-box workflow

templates and building blocks to save time and effort

Implement proof of concepts to build success and

gain momentum

10

CLOUD TIP: Intel® Cloud Builder Solutions include reference architectures, or recipes, on how to deploy

ecosystem solutions built on offerings from leading systems and solutions providers based on Intel technologies. Visit intelcloudbuilders.com.

5. Manage a Data-Driven Cloud

Monitor health and performance end to end.

Measure against goals for availability and performance

Ensure compliance with security and privacy regulations

Inform decisions to add capacity

Troubleshoot problems

Review integrated operational analytics for:

Facilities

Network

Storage

Compute

Applications

11

CLOUD TIP: If you choose to offer externally hosted cloud services in the future, you will have already established a way to measure the overall service availability stipulated in third-party service-level agreements.

Five Requirements: Infrastructure as a

Service (IaaS) Technology

1. Pervasive virtualization

2. A cloud management platform (CMP)

3. Automated workflows and other system capabilities

4. Orchestrated services end to end

5. Cloud security

12

CLOUD TIP: Although clouds are built with IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS service layers, infrastructure services are the most typical private cloud services offered today.

Page 13: Virtualization and Cloud Computing Guide to Building Private IaaS

1. Pervasive Virtualization

Virtualization provides several key cloud capabilities. Resource sharing

Virtual machine (VM) isolation

Load balancing

Pervasive virtualization broadens the opportunity for cloud

adoption across the organization.

13

Infrastructure as a service is built on pooled resources for computing, storage, and networking.

From An Enterprise Private Cloud Architecture and Implementation Roadmap. Intel IT (June 2010).

Page 14: Virtualization and Cloud Computing Guide to Building Private IaaS

2. Cloud Management Platform

Integrated software that delivers high service quality, security,

and availability for workloads should provide at minimum:

Direct user access to the system

Self-service capabilities and interfaces

A workflow engine

Automated provisioning

Metering and chargeback functionality

14

CLOUD TIP: More advanced capabilities might include performance and capacity management, interoperability between private and public IaaS offerings, connectivity to and management of external

clouds, application life-cycle support, back-end service catalogs, and integration with external enterprise management systems.

3. Automated Workflows

Minimize manual processes

Provide integration across heterogeneous and disparate

systems

Manage provisioning, scaling, VM configuration, identity

and access controls, network resources, workflow

monitoring, patching, and backup

Optimize and manage resources faster, deliver

services, manage service life cycles, and respond to

changing conditions

16

CLOUD TIP: Intel IT’s private cloud infrastructure uses a modular, extensible framework to simplify system integration and provide the prerequisites for fully functional, self-provisioned VMs with compute, storage, and network resources. This enables Intel IT to introduce additional automation capabilities as business and

technical needs change. Source: Best Practices for Building an Enterprise Private Cloud.

4. Orchestrated Services End to End

Automated intelligence that dynamically coordinates and manages

across different systems to:

Connect and automate workflows

Manage configuration, capacity, metering, and chargeback

Track and report cloud performance and availability

Monitor and manage power

Monitor security threats and adherence to security policies

Take effective actions and make adjustments

Predict potential issues and address proactively

18

CLOUD TIP: Intel® Intelligent Power Technology orchestrates power management with Intel Data Center Manager (Intel DCM) and Intel Node Manager (Intel NM), technology built into Intel Xeon® processor-based servers. Together they monitor and cap power in real time at server, rack, zone, and data center levels and manage aggregated power consumption and load migration.

Page 19: Virtualization and Cloud Computing Guide to Building Private IaaS

5. Cloud Security

Challenges: Resource isolation, security event management,

and data protection, including VM isolation, secure

VM migration, virtual network isolation, and security event

and access monitoring

Visibility into secure data flow and compliance with

business-specific security policies is critical

19

CLOUD TIP: Provide security as a set of on-demand, scalable services. In this approach, policies are tied to logical attributes that create adaptive trust zones to separate multiple tenants.

Page 20: Virtualization and Cloud Computing Guide to Building Private IaaS

Intel Cloud Security Recommendations

Intel recommends prioritizing these physical and virtual controls.

Protect data – Use pervasive encryption, secure connections, and data loss

prevention policies

Establish and verify identities – Control access from client devices and systems

you trust, and manage API control points at the network edge

Establish trusted compute pools – Secure data center platform, infrastructure, and

client devices

Build higher assurance into compliance – Streamline auditing and increase

visibility into your cloud environment

Enable secure migration – Protect movement between a private cloud

environment and public cloud providers
