Ok, a third blocker Cost

Part 2 – IaaS is finally here

PaaS IaaS

At the end of the day, everything is just a VM in a Rack

Cloud ServicesVirtual Machines Two offerings, but only IaaS is very popular…. PaaS IaaS

Part 3 - Does PaaS suck? Control versus automation PaaS's upside IaaS's upside Are Azure Web Sites really just PaaS? When push comes to shove, who is the winner?

Cloud Services PaaS is more automated PaaS

PaaS is the future Faster to deploy, easier to scale Cheaper – fewer things to configure, fewer mistakes Auto patching and updates Advantages Limited control Disadvantages

Virtual Machines IaaS/VMs IaaS

PaaS/Web Sites.

Cloud ServicesVirtual Machines Bottom Line PaaS IaaS

Part 4 - Storage is easy to sell Focusing on the best bits Blobs, relational data Public versus private relational data The 4 faces of SQL Server VPN + SQL Server = Nirvana Can you say VPN Appliance?

Storage

VPN

VPN Appliance – Incredible ! SSL and IPsec VPN Services 8 port 10/100 switch with 2 Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports Memory: 512 MB; Maximum Firewall throughput (Mbps): 150 Mbps Packets Per Second (64 byte): 85,000 Maximum 3DES/AES VPN Throughput: 100 Mbps Prices subject to change

Part 5 - So how much does it cost? IaaS, PaaS, SQL, Bandwidth, Blobs

IaaS & VMs The Cost of IaaS Virtual Machine with just Windows Pay by hour/minute Based on machine size + bandwidth $14/month to $1,500/month Virtual Machine with just Linux Pay by hour/minute Based on machine size + bandwidth $14/month to $1,200/month SQL Server - WebPay by hour/minute Based on machine size + bandwidth $48/month to $1,600/month SQL Server - Enterprise Pay by hour/minute Based on machine size, bandwidth $1,500/month to $4,600/month Prices subject to change

The cost of PaaS PaaS – Monthly charges Web Sites10 sites for free Extra for DB, Bandwidth, Support $8/month for 100MB DB + 31GB egress Cloud Services By hour/minute [verify] Based on machine size, bandwidth $14/month to $1,330/month SQL DatabasePer month Based on database size, bandwidth $10/month to $225/month for 150 GB Prices subject to change

Bandwidth Applies to IaaS and PaaS OutboundUS and Europe$0.05 to $0.12/GB OutboundAustralia, Asia$0.12 to $0.19/GB InboundUS and EuropeFree InboundAustralia, AsiaFree Prices subject to change

Blobs Very cost effective Geo RedundantAmount = 25GB$2.38/Month Geo RedundantAmount = 10,000GB$815/Month Locally RedundantAmount = 25GB$1.75/Month Locally RedundantAmount = 10,000GB$655/Month Prices subject to change

SAN appliance - StorSimple Blob Storage Applications get local SSD performance Elasticity of the cloud through automatic algorithm caches blocks of content, similar to what Page Rank does for Bing.

Part 6 - Some closing thoughts Low hanging fruit Selling storage Amazon Selling Dev / Test Killing the outsourcing business Getting the web site migration business How to think about what customers want Closing thoughts

Selling Storage Blob Storage Assumptions 1 TB Geo Redundant blobs Egress – 500 GB / month Cost EMC Compete EMC is twice the cost Customers know their data costs Total $150 to $190 per month $100 for storage ~$70 for data transfer costs Prices subject to change

Selling VMs on Demand for Dev/Test Prices subject to change

Summary of Ideal Candidate App Types What customer want Fast access,no commitment Scale, global access Spikey usage Restrict access by mobile apps to on-premises resources Eliminate in-house IT
