1 The Fast(est) Path to Building a Private/Hybrid Cloud October 25th, 2011 Paul Mourani RightScale

2 Real Cloud Experience. Shared. # 2 World’s #1 cloud management system Managing cloud deployments for 4+ Years – globally More than 45,000 users; launched over 3M servers Powering the largest production deployments on the cloud RightScale

3 Real Cloud Experience. Shared. # 3 What do we mean by “Cloud”? A cloud is a physical datacenter entity behind an API endpoint What does that really mean? Amazon Web Services is not a cloud EC2 is not a cloud Eucalyptus, Cloud.com, OpenStack are not clouds EC2 US-East, ‘my private cloud’… these are clouds An availability zone is not a cloud (but it is part of one) Think of a cloud as a “resource pool” accessed via an API

12 Real Cloud Experience. Shared. # 12 Multi-Cloud Hot HA Example Multi-Cloud looks similar to Multi-AZ… but there are additional problems to solve as some resources are not shared across clouds You need DNS management or a global load balancer You need to copy or replicate data yourself as EBS snapshots are specific to the source AZ. Getting the data out requires a slave sync or taking LVM snapshots and transferring the data. Images for cloud servers are specific to the cloud/region. Security is an issue as security groups are Region-specific.
