AAP315 Optimize the Business with Microsoft Datacenter Services 2.0 John Morello Lead Architect Microsoft Corporation
Agenda • ‘Private Cloud’ Defined Datacenter Services DCS User Experiences Hydration and Migration Making it Real
The NIST Cloud Definition Framework Hybrid Clouds Deployment Models Private Cloud Community Cloud Public Cloud Service Models Software as a Service (SaaS) Essential Characteristics Platform as a Service (PaaS) On Demand Self-Service Massive Scale Resilient Computing Broad Network Access Rapid Elasticity Homogeneity Geographic Distribution Common Characteristics Virtualization Service Orientation Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Resource Pooling Measured Service Low Cost Software Advanced Security
Typical Traditional Pattern • IT receives request ‘the business’ ‘IT’ • Provisioning • Request Initiated • “Silos” of resources • Increased IT costs • Oversubscription • Deployment and registration of management tools • Overprovisioning • Ongoing maintenance
Cloud Pattern • Automated provisioning ‘the business’ ‘IT’ • Pooled resources • Self-service • Automated management deployment • Reduced costs • Optimized resource consumption • Quota-based allocation • Automated maintenance

DCS Capabilities • DCS enhances product capabilities with automation, integration, and ‘hydration’ • Enhanced scenarios include: • Automated Server Deployment • Automated System Center Deployment • Automated Virtualization Configuration • Automated Patching • Chargeback Reporting • Scale-up and Scale-down • Modular Deployment
DCS Supportability • DCS builds on public, supported extensibility points in Windows Server and System Center • DCS created a repeatable, consistent, and more supportable configuration • Not a ‘one-off’ custom deployment with unclear support boundaries or lifecycle • Microsoft Services offers support for the entire solution, from the hypervisor up, including the automation and integration components

Datacenter Services From MicrosoftPackaged Solutions – Enhanced Service Templates Infrastructure Provisioning VM infrastructure, networking and storage, SQL databases and configuration using VMM service templates App Controller Virtual Machine Manager Service Provisioning Sequencing and configuration of workload bits (e.g. SharePoint), credentials, connections, configurations using Services Hydration and MDT
Why Hydration? • How many hours of your life have you already spent looking at stuff like this:
Hydration • A typical enterprise SharePoint install may take 4 hours or more, including all the pre-requisites and updates • Hydration provisions workloads in a fraction of the time with minimal or zero effort required • No black magic… using the existing automation and extensibility points in the software so it’s repeatable and supportable • Great example of the value of Microsoft Services’ experience packaged up in DCS
Getting You There • We rarely see VM ‘green fields’ • Core part of DCS value is making migration easy and efficient • DCS builds on the Virtual Machine Migration Toolkit to automate migrations at high scale and low cost • Leverages Veeam tools for VMware integration • Discovery, backup, V2V • Highly automated process, queue and migration en masse • Can leverage our Global Delivery teams to further drive down costs for remaining manual tasks
