Proud - ITaaS Information-Technology-as-a-Service • IaaS, HaaS, PaaS, SaaS • Pay as you go and grow (utility computing) • CAPEX vs. OPEX Cloud Computing is any combination of ITaaS • Executed “in the Cloud” for High Availability • Improved hardware utilization and business continuity • Extend the life cycle of hardware through scalable architecture • Public Cloud • Google, Azure, etc. • Centralized applications (LOB, backup, or general) hosted by large vendor • Private Cloud • Centralized hardware at client or local vendor • Specific ITaaS for each client
Proud – Cloud Computing Public • Security and access? • Ownership of data and where it resides? • No one has 100% up-time, but 100% reliant on WAN/net? • What are the storage mechanisms and redundancy? • How is it managed? • Shared space
Proud – Cloud Computing Private • Private at client and/or partner • Always on locally or remotely • Security under your control • Power, cooling, and space available at client • Control over monitoring, management, and maintenance • Improve client retention by providing entire infrastructure
Private Cloud Benefits with Proud OPEX vs. CAPEX Model Scalable Architecture Built-in Business Continuity Standardize IT Environment • Reduce Tech Support Costs Increase Client Retention Zenith NOC Monitoring • Reduces Administration Overhead Predictable IT Expenditure Increased hardware lifecycle Increased Business Uptime Quicker Resolutions • Less Business Interruption Personal Service and Attention Improved Support and Response IT Service Provider Customer
Public vs. Private Cloud Staying in control means staying profitable Cloud (Google, Azure, etc.. MSP Hosted (Data Center) Onsite (Private Cloud at Customer Site)
Proud – What is Proud? Private Cloud • Under your control • Hosted at a client site or your data center Virtual Workloads • Servers and Desktops Scalable Architecture • Capacity On-Demand • Node-based Infrastructure (RAIN) Reliable, True High Availability for the SMB Integrated Business Continuity Disaster Recovery Centralized Management
