  1. ? CloudArenaWhat Cloud Should Fit You? Gary Ramsay, OpSource 10th October, 2012 2012

  2. Agenda • High level definitions and cloud models • Business drivers for Cloud • Probable cloud adoption journey • Questions and Answers

  3. Cloud computing – a simple definition, major disruption! Buying IT components as a ‘Service”: Cloud Computing: “IT resources and services that are abstracted from the underlying infrastructure and provided “on-demand” and “at scale” in a multi-tenant environment.” ...such a simple concept ...yet so much confusion! Source: Gartner

  4. Explaining the definition...in simple ways! Cloud Computing: “IT resources and services that are abstracted from the underlying infrastructure and provided “on-demand” and “at scale” in a multi-tenant environment.” • Most architectures today are closely coupled – and have strong dependencies between underlying elements. • All these aspects have to be changed – and elements have to be SEPERATED from each other…this is most often achieved via VIRTUALISATION “IT resources and services that are abstracted from the underlying infrastructure … • “on-demand’ implies one only sources or buys what you need • In order to do this a HIGH order of automation is required – to allow one to ‘turn on or turn off’ capacity …and provided “on-demand” … • “at scale’” refers to sourcing at a better rate than one can do oneself • New providers that focus in one area and have many clients have better scale – and thus this typically refers to sourcing from a provider … and “at scale”… • This refers to the architecture that providers use to deploy and deliver services. • It is a way to used shared infrastructure for dedicated offerings …in a multi-tenant environment.”

  5. Characteristics of cloud computing Pay-per-use Self-service Standardized Multi-tenant On-demand Abstracted Scalable Network-based Easy-to-use

  6. Cloud Definition from NIST Elastic Scale Orchestration Automation Essential Characteristics On-Demand Self Service Global Secure Access Utility Billing Software as a Service (SaaS) Platform as a Service (PaaS) Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Service Models Deployment Models Community Hybrid Public Private NIST = The National Institute of Standards and Technology

  7. Cloud computing service models

  8. Cloud Services … examples • PaaS (Platform-as-a Service) • SW development frameworks • Application suites • CaaS (Communications-as-a-Service) • Conferencing (Web, Voice, Video) • Video Bridging and Switching • Messaging • Presence • Productivity Cloud computingservice models • SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) • ERP • CRM • Service Desk • Mail Applications • Messaging Applications • Social Networking • IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) • Data Centre • Compute Infrastructure • Storage Resources • Database • WAN services • Contact Centre Infrastructure

  9. Basic definitions: IaaS cloud types Private Cloud • A Cloud architecture that is deployed for the sole use of a single enterprise – and reside on the enterprise premise (i.e. on-premise) Hosted Private Cloud • A Cloud architecture that is deployed for the sole use of a single enterprise – but hosted by a cloud services provider (i.e. off-premise) • A Cloud architecture that is deployed for the provision of public cloud services – a cloud architecture that serve multiple enterprises – hence sharing of underlying infrastructure elements occur (to varying degrees, based on the actual service type). Public Cloud • A dedicated partition within a Public Cloud architecture that is allocated to a single enterprise – hence certain elements of the architecture are shared, while others are dedicated to a single enterprise (related to the service type). Virtual Private Cloud Community Cloud • A Public Cloud Architecture for the provision of cloud services to a specific or limited community or segment or vertical. Hybrid Cloud • A Cloud architecture that is made up of a combination of previous Cloud Types – most often a combination of Private and Public Cloud Architectures (once again related to the service types).

  10. Basic definitions: cloud types and service types Cloud Types Service Types Private Clouds Public Clouds Hybrid Clouds Community clouds SaaS PaaS IaaS To some, clouds are associated with an off premise, hosted model… Aligned to: National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Information Technology Laboratory

  11. The business benefits of cloud computing…drivers • Business continuity • Technology independence • Operational complexity • Specialised skills Risk optimization • No capex, less assets • Pay-as-you-use • On-demand capacity • Elasticity • Economies of scale • Time-to-value Cost optimization • Time-to-market • Innovation • New business models • Resource leverage Strategic agility ...why would one not consider these benefits?

  12. Cloud has appeal to different buyers

  13. Cloud Services, WW Share by Industry Sector The high-tech, manufacturing and financial services sectors and the public sector will continue to be the most-aggressive adopters of cloud services through 2015 Financial services organizations in aggregate represent the largest users of public cloud services. The North American market continues to be, by far, the largest regional market representing 60% of the global market currently, but growth in China remains of interesting potential. Gartner predicts the fastest growing revenue generating segment of public clouds will be storage services (89.5%) followed by Compute Services (47.8%) and supply management (39.5%).

  14. Cloud Services: Adoption by market segment will vary Drivers Adoption rate Global • Financial construct • Agility…IT and Biz • Architecture itself • Have scale, will pursue architecture • Private Clouds first • Test Public Services…non-core • Prefer “gorillas” due to risk International • Financial construct • Agility…IT and Biz • Time to market and growth risk • Scale in home markets only • Private and hosted private clouds • Test public services…non-core Domestic • Affordability and leverage scale • Agility and competitive risk • Time to market and growth risk • Regulatory compliance impact • Private and hosted private clouds • Test (I/C) public services…non-core Mid market • Cost • Access to IT functions • Agility…somewhat • More risk tolerant • Hosted private and public cloud • All service types…non-core and core SMB • Cost, cost, cost • Ability to do it oneself • Access to IT functions • Early adopters and rapid rate • Mainly public cloud services • All service types…core apps

  15. What are customers’ business and IT triggers for cloud computing?

  16. Most likely cloud adoption journey

  17. How will the “Cloud” be used?

  18. Applications Driving Demand for Cloud Computing Integration Testing Test and Dev Mobility Internal Applications and SaaS Business Continuity Storage Growth projects are accelerating the pace of software development

  19. Drivers of cloud computing are different for each client IT-Led Business-Led Consolidation Virtualization IT-as-a-Service Agility and Growth Reduce Cost Mobility and SaaS Strategic Reduce Risk Speed Delivery of Growth Projects Reduce Cost Flexible Infrastructure Reduce Complexity Avoid Procurement Delays Tactical

  20. Which type of “Cloud” is best? Flexibility Scalability Security Performance Private Cloud Public Cloud Security Performance Flexibility Scalability Private Cloud Public Cloud

  21. Probable Customer adoption:What we are seeing Customerwill in future buy servicesin a combination of:On-Premise, Private and Public Cloud The move to cloud services is a journey over time… …and all is not equal! 4 Hybrid cloud model preference 3 Leverage ofpublic cloud services 2 Building private cloud architectures Most likely adoption approach 1 • Key Findings: • The cloud model is a new consumption model of technology and services • The business benefits of cloud models are compelling – in many ways • Adoption will need to be structured – and support existing business systems • Most likely end state: hybrid model Cloud enablementprojects Emergence ofpublic cloud models

  22. Private clouds are difficult to build…move to Public Network Access and Configuration User Interface and API Development Metering, Billing and Charge Back Automated, Real-Time Provisioning Software Development Federation Across Clouds, Single Pane of Glass Lack of In-House Expertise Launching Public Cloud: roadmap planning, new feature adoption, software and UI development, upgrades, interoperability, patches, change management, performance envelopes, compliance, security, etc.

  23. Don’t fear the cloud… Thank You! Questions?
