  1. "Virtualisation and public/private “cloud’ computing - supporting agility and services for Statistical Institutions". Tony Marion – Infrastructure Architect, ABS for Meeting on the Management of Statistical Information Systems, Korea, April 2010

  2. Presentation Outline • Drivers for change • Brief history of Virtualisation in the ABS • What does the ABS “Cloud” look like • Aspirations for the future • Some tips when building an internal “Cloud”

  3. Drivers for change

  4. Why change our ICT Infrastructure? • Increasing expectations of data respondents, information consumers and suppliers for electronic interaction • Government expectation of further efficiencies • Maintaining data quality with shrinking budgets • Evolving the statistics for important areas of government decision-making • Greater demand for system-to-system services through the web • Using existing data for new statistics • Creating hybrid subject-matter outputs (eg socio-economic, enviro-economic)‏ • Replacing purpose-built data collection with more administrative data • Systematising statistical business process knowledge • Incorporating components developed by others (eg geospatial software)‏ • Data linking

  5. Growing Gap What the ABS business needs vs. What ITcan deliver Business Needs IT Capacity

  6. Where we wanted to be Virtual Environment Where we were Server Sprawl Hard to manage, low utilisation, inflexible Dynamic, computing resource for clients

  12. Aspirations for the future

  13. Future Projects… No Major Technology Updates • Infrastructure@ABS • Desktop@ABS • Security@ABS • Access@ABS • Servers@ABS • Web@ABS • Vdesktop@ABS • Vappliance@ABS

  14. Application Efficiencies Pre-installed, Pre-configured software stack Software-as-a-Service: Hides complexity of installation and configuration Desktop, Infrastructure or SOA Application Gains Virtual Infrastructure Benefits Infrastructure Resource Pool

  15. Some tips when building an internal “Cloud”

  16. Plan for success but some risk will be required • Get other technical staff and clients onside • Start Small and grow with experience • Ensure staff are well trained • Establish a good relationship with hardware and Software vendors • Get your licensing right for the Virtual world • Use appropriate Hardware • Test applications and build virtual machines from scratch • Monitor the environment and be prepared to change

  17. Thank you
