So Software defined Everything helps the providers but why should the users care?
The customer is no longer stuck to the chair • Smartphone or tablet users can simply download an app and go • Enterprise ICT isn’t that dynamic ?
The cloud provides the most immediate and practical solution IAAS CRM Office Apps Only the very bravest of start-ups or ISVs would do something other than the cloud The simplicity of access, immediacy of experience means for many they are leaving rigid and constraining nature of their ‘on-premise’ data centre and embracing the cloud on a discrete basis Security ERP On Demand
Europe isn’t a single market for regulation Despite the economic significance and cross border nature of the marketeach member state controls regulation
Compared to the agility of the OTT providers most traditional infrastructure is unhelpful in this transition
The CLOUD gives – AGILITY, IMMEDIACY, FLEXIBILTY….but does it do everything • Security and predictability • “Takes a lot of engineering to bring private cloud security and reliability to the public cloud’” • Too easy to get locked-in • “The future of cloud computing should be much more focused on separating the data from the service” • Control • "You can't go to the public cloud and say I want another 64GB of memory here. They look at you and say ‘buy another instance of this type”" • Reliability The cloud is going to fail • “The best way to avoid failure is to fail constantly” • Speed • “It was too slow, so we abandoned it” [compared to my on-premise solution]
Public Cloud Computing version 1.0 is brilliant ‘Somewhere in the Cloud’ • Bricks, Mortar and the Internet are great but limited in flexibility to distribute services, variable latency, asymmetrical routing, contended services • Data centre availability is still a function of the quality of the bricks and mortar despite the internet being the best example of resilience in the past 25 years • The network is an alien body with no predictability or control…in some ways things haven’t changed a great deal
But is that it?? The Network Remains Dumb 2007 2011 2003 1999
Public Cloud Simplicity, Private Cloud Security • Combine the network with the computing, separate the control and data planes and now you can do all you want • Inserting the computing into the network offers the SAME level of control as REAL architectures • The network becomes the computer and the computer becomes the network
Public Cloud Convenience, Private Cloud Confidentiality • Interoute Virtual Data Centre differentiates by offering a ‘real’ alternative to building infrastructure without compromising security, availability, speed or control • No Hidden Costs: Only pay for CPU, RAM and Disk • Performance: Direct connection to MPLS core ensures full line rate • Zero Contention: No limitation on RAM • Secure: MPLS label separation provides private and public computing • Unique Control: Direct and native access • High Multi-site Access Across Europe
Spread it like a network Multiple Locations, Low Latency, Choice of Data Location, High Availability, Direct Access to Core • Interoute Virtual Data Centre multiple geographies • You choose the city for your data • You choose where you put your applications • Network is FEEE between all locations • Only charge you for what you use in ANY location • Full accreditation in key locations Hong Kong Singapore Amsterdam ISO 27001 PCI DSS ISAE 3402 Berlin BSI PCI DSS ISAE 3402 Geneva ISO 27001 PCI DSS ISAE 3402 London ISO 27001 PCI DSS ISAE 3402 Ghent (colo) ISO 27001 Paris ISO 7001 PCI DSS Stockholm ISO 27001 Zurich ISO 27001 PCI DSS
