5. So, What’s The Big Deal?
Doesn’t everybody have a “private cloud”?

6. It’s About Developers

• High velocity,
agile software
development
• Automated build
deploy, test,
repeat

11. Threat or Opportunity?
•Competitive, customer driven IT
• IT will need to compete with external services
and win business
•Cost controls
• If IT can deliver solution, $$$ savings
•Value chain
• Opportunity for IT to upgrade skills, evolve to
“Cloud Architects”

12. Next-Gen Enterprise Infrastructure
•Public cloud agility
• Infrastructure as a service (dialtone)
• Automation, time to value, self-service
•Private cloud control and economics
• Data gravity
• Choice of hardware, OSes and locations
• $$$ savings

13. From Here To Private Cloud

14. Solution Landscape
• Not DevOps
friendly (Not
Cloud Native)
• Lacks open /
large community
leverage
• VMware only
• $$$$
14
vRealize OpenStack Docker
• Platform for
DevOps (Is
Cloud Native)
• Massive open
community
leverage
• VMware or KVM
• Not easy to run
• Platform for
DevOps (Is Cloud
Native)
• Emerging open
community
• Not a VM!
• Orchestration is
still maturing
(Kubernetes?)

15. Open-Source Leverage
15
… And Storage / Network Solutions!

16. Decision Making Landscape
• Value DevOps?
• Value Open-Source?
• Vendor neutral “standard”
• Community integrations
• Multi-hypervisor vs not

18. Great… Except, We Don’t Have
6 PhDs!
Quote from OpenStack Summit Keynote:
It Shouldn’t Take 6 PhDs to Run OpenStack

26. Deployment Models

27. On-Premises Distribution
27
On-premises OpenStack
• Powered by your server
infrastructure
• DIY or distribution
installer
• No SLA: who deploys,
monitors, troubleshoots,
upgrades?
• OS and hardware
dependencies

28. Hosted OpenStack Cloud
28
Hosted OpenStack Cloud
• Uses service provider
hardware
• Turnkey experience
• Service Provider typically
provides operational SLA
• OS and hardware limitations
• Creates silos, reduces
infrastructure choice
• Typically expensive $$$
