De-Constructing the Cloud
Agenda.. Take a part the cloud ● Adoption the Why and Why not ● Internal and External ● Understand the architecture of clouds ● Tools/Software and appliances and offerings ● IaaS ● PaaS ● SaaS ● Take a peak at some Cloud hardware De-Constructing the Cloud
What is driving Adoption ● Open Source ● Software Costs ● Dynamic Infrastructure Needs ● More Efficient IT Spend ● Understanding IT spend allocation – CapEx to OpEx De-Constructing the Cloud
Cloud Adoption Barriers ● Security ● Compliance ● Software Licensing ● Standardization De-Constructing the Cloud
Current Cloud Services ● Internal / Private Cloud ● Desktop ● Network ● Storage ● SCADA ● Application/ DB clusters ● DMZ ● ● Team Collaboration De-Constructing the Cloud

Cloud Architectures ● IaaS – Infrastructure as a Service ● PaaS - Platform ● SaaS – Software ● SOA offerings De-Constructing the Cloud
● Support up through the OS ● Standard provisioning ● Virtual,Physical or hybrid ● Resource Virtualization ● License management ● OS only ● Reduction in support ● Cost ● Time IaaS De-Constructing the Cloud
PaaS ● Builds on IaaS ● Optimization of Staff ● Managed environment ● Muti-tenant ● Managed Clusters ● Dynamic ● Scalable – Up + Down ● Mobile ● Highly Available De-Constructing the Cloud
SaaS ● Builds on PaaS ● Liberates IT Staff ● Minimal IT support – Connection support only – No Programmers – Future planning moved to Accounting ● Migration of tasks – Data Entry ● Efficiency ● Multi-tenant + Multi-use – Multi-use data ● Authentication ● Shared Data Structures – De-Constructing the Cloud
Hardware for the Cloud ● Grid ● Idataplex ● Blades ● High density blades ● 1 u ● Consolidation platforms ● Power ● Z ● X5 ● Sparc De-Constructing the Cloud
