Hello Cloud… Mike Benkovich mike@benko.com twitter: @mbenko http://www.BenkoTIPS.com
Software Challenges Today What are my requirements? # of users? After 1 month? 6 months? 1 yr? Capacity? Servers? Bandwidth? Storage? How do you scale up or down over time? How can you handle peak loads? How do you provide high availability? What are the upfront capital costs? How quickly can you go live? How do you reduce your operations costs?
Software Challenges Today $$$ • Datacenter peak load • Usage • Idle time • Jan • Apr • Jul • Oct
Platform Continuum On-Premises Servers Hosted Servers Cloud Platform • Renting machines, connectivity, software • Less control • Fewer responsibilities • Lower capital costs • More flexible • Pay for fixed capacity, even if idle • Bring your own machines, connectivity, software, etc. • Complete control • Complete responsibility • Static capabilities • Upfront capital costs for the infrastructure • Shared, multi-tenant infrastructure • Virtualized & dynamic • Scalable & available • Abstracted from the infrastructure • Higher-level services • Pay as you go
Public and Private Cloud • Who owns the datacenters • Capital investment • Control • Risk
What is Cloud Computing • Virtualization • Self service provisioning • Automation, self healing • Resource pooling • Rapid elasticity • Measured service Source: http://searchcio.techtarget.com/news/1514300/Pillars-of-cloud-provisioning-self-service-automation-and-policy andhttp://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/hh127072.aspx
Cloud Services • On-Premises • IaaS • PaaS • SaaS Applications Applications Applications Applications Data Data Data Data Custom Software Custom Software Startup Tasks Native Code Native Code Native Code Firewall Rules Firewall Firewall Rules Virtual Network Network Virtual Network O/S O/S Virtualization Hardware
Why Public Cloud • Reduce operations cost • Leverage Efficiencies of Scale • Speed to Market • Disposable Computing • Scalability • Global Presence
Data Center Abstraction • Ultimately cloud is collection of hardware in Data Centers • Racks, Routers, Blades • Compute • Storage • Networking • Azure Fabric enforces constraints for SLA • Highly Available • Redundant • Performant
Windows Azure Demo
Why Windows Azure • Cloud your way… • Familiar environment • Transparent OS patching & upgrades • Best in class developer tools • Secure • Durable, performant, scalable storage • Financially backed SLA
Summary Windows Azure provides a comprehensive set of services that you can selectively compose to build your cloud apps Global Data Center Footprint 99.95% Monthly SLA. Pay only for what you use. Flexible & Open Compute Options Virtual Machines, Web Sites, & Cloud Services Managed Building Block Services SQL Database, Cache, Service Bus, & more
