  2. TOSCA Introduction (to CIOs) • TOSCA is an important new open cloud technology, supported by a large and growing number of international industry leaders • It addresses critical cloud application challenges: • Speed and accuracy moving apps to Cloud • TOSCA captures knowledge to automate rapid implementation and deployment • TOSCA spans the entire technology stack and multiple Clouds • Agility adapting to change (Business and IT) • TOSCA enables holistic lifecycle automation ensuring Integrity, Security and Compliance • TOSCA reduces complexity by expressing application requirements independently from infrastructure capabilities • Choice of Cloud vendor and technology • TOSCA enables flexible deployment and migration on different Clouds while maintaining needed functionality, quality and manageability • TOSCA is a recognized OASIS industry standard, aligned with key open source projects (e.g., OpenStack, Cloudify, Eclipse) • Members: ASG Software, Axway, CA Technologies, China Internet Network Information Center, Cisco, Citrix, CloudSoft, EMC, FastConnect SAS, Fujitsu, GigaSpaces, Google, HP, Huawei, IBM, NetApp, Nokia, Primeton, Red Hat, SAP, Software AG, VCE, Vnomic , WSO2, Yaana, Zenoss

  3. Call to action for the CIO • Ifyou intend to use the Cloud for complexapplications, TOSCA impacts your Technology Strategy! • Determine how leveraging TOSCA can benefit YOU • Talk to your network of trusted technology advisors • Talk to your vendors and platform providers • Charter your CTO office to investigate – we can deliver deep dive material

  4. Topics for the office of the CTO and Enterprise Architects org

  5. Overview of Challenges (to CTOs) • How do I optimize time-to-value for moving apps to Cloud? • How do I leverage domain expert knowledge and best practices as cloud applications become more complex? • How can I support business dynamics and IT change agility while keeping IT costs balanced? • How do I scale to support growing business? • How do I keep Development & Operations aligned while optimizing time-to-value and continuous delivery of cloud applications? • How do I preserve choice of Cloud vendor, platform and technology?

  6. <meta slide: template for following “challenge” slides>“Challenge xyz” • Problem statement • How does TOSCA solve xyz? • Why is TOSCA unique?

  7. How do I optimize time-to-value for creating and moving apps to Cloud? • Accelerate IT learning curve while migrating existing enterprise applications to the Cloud • Leverage best internal & external expertise to prevent costly trial and error • Rapidly unleash the business benefit potential of Cloud • Use of existing TOSCA models • Bundling of application products with TOSCA model ready-to-use • Best practices composed by communities, consultants, cloud service providersleveraging application lifecycle management expertise of recognized industry experts • OASIS TOSCA guidelines standardize a high quality • Allows rapid deployment of applications

  8. How do I leverage domain expert knowledge and best practices as cloud apps become more complex? • Powerful new mechanism to capture and leverage expert knowledge • ISV, System Integrators, infrastructure vendors, universities, open contributors (e.g. OpenStack, Eclipse, Dev communities) • Marketplaces / libraries for cloud application models structured as TOSCA content • Preserve and leverage existing investments in scripts, workflows, etc. • TOSCA enforces reusability by a structured development and delivery approach • Start today to leverage TOSCA principles and methodologies in your enterprise architect community

  9. How can I support business dynamics and IT change agility while keeping IT costs balanced? • TOSCA contributes to reduced IT costs by supporting transformation to the Cloud • Dynamically adapt to changing business conditions TOSCA enables choice of cloud service providers incl. private/managed/public clouds • TOSCA supports necessary governance of IT supply chain while providing needed IT agility to Lines-of-Business

  10. How do I scale to support growing business? • Agile business needs to adapt to changing conditions rapidly • Seasonal changes • Special / unforeseeable events • Business growth / shrink • Merger & Acquisition, divestiture • TOSCA is revolutionizing change management • Enable & support full automation of planned & unplanned changes • Adopt, harmonize and modernize the common IT standards, governance, compliance regulations after M&A • Automate the b2b integrationfor new business partner onboarding • Accelerate agile lifecycle iterations along the Dev-Test-QA-Production chain • Leverage other experts’ documentation, automated solutions and tools for modeling & orchestration • Decoupling application requirements from infrastructure capabilities

  11. How do I keep Development & Operations aligned while optimizing time-to-value and continuous delivery of cloud applications? • OASIS TOSCA is the most comprehensive cloud application-centric open standard • TOSCA model unified view minimizes the impact of change and maximizes productivity while simplifying DevOps across all environments • TOSCA enables transparency and understanding of applications and their dependencies across multiple clouds and throughout their lifecycle • TOSCA-based comparison and automation of actual/target configurations supports governance, risk and compliance management

  12. How do I preserve choice of Cloud vendor, platform and technology? TOSCA as an Open Standard offers • Portable service description • Encapsulation of best practices in a provider neutral fashion • Modular and composable approach Benefits • Choices of cloud service providers • Flexibility to change cloud service providers over time • Interoperability across multiple cloud service providers • High quality of service through re-use and adaptability • Choice of service quality and price
