Cloud Computing 101 Presented by Tom Nolle President of CIMI Corp.
What We’ll Cover • Cloud targets of opportunity • Public, hybrid, private • SaaS, PaaS, IaaS • Application Models • Storage models
How Clouds (Might) Save Money MaintenanceCosts Fall Faster Turn-On to New Projects Better Resource Efficiency/Utilization Cash Flow Is Improved Compliance/Security Improved
The ‘-as-a-Service’ Options SaaS models look like hosted services, IaaS/PaaS models look like a data center
How Cloud Applications Might Look Virtual Infrastructure Mash-Up Hybrid Client-to-Cloud Public Cloud Private Cloud
Data, Storage & Their Impact Private or Hybrid Cloud Storage: “Leak” issues in hybrid clouds and performance issues relating to storage/server siting Public Cloud Storage: Data security and performance considerations Out-of-Cloud Storage: No special risks Public Cloud Private Cloud
Cloud Storage vs. DBMS • You may not have a choice with PaaS or SaaS models • Cloud DBMS systems let you leave storage management to the cloud • Cloud DBMS systems may pose performance and compatibility risks, and be harder to manage • Persistent storage in the cloud is the largest issue in management and security!
Summing Up • You need a specific business case, and to know how cloud commitment will address it • You need to understand the value of public, hybrid, and private clouds • The various as-a-service models will differ considerably in terms of what you have to do to support them and how to manage and secure them • Data storage issues are all too often ignored; don’t make that mistake!
