1. Preamble Way off topic (or is it?) Kooky prediction. 2012 - $8 bil arm procs. 100% annual Intel about $80 billion ~2016 collision - economy of scale. Microsoft?, server market?

2. Cloud? The network? VMs at a distance.

3. Linux centric Linux or die R&D - Linux AWS - database example Open stack & Amazon cloud leaders

4. Software AWS vmware openstack hyper-v (honorable mention)

5. VM Services Disks encryption segmentation

6. Non VM services Software solutions (DNS, DHCP, WEB, database) Organizational Monitoring

7. VM installation for N installs clusters load distribution any mass market application

8. OS auto deploy tools kickstart chef puppet cobbler

9. When N is 1 Academic startups experimentation remote DC

10. VM portability tier 1 - software only (Not windows) Solves for N tier 2 - down state migration (including conversion) Solves for some N = small number tier 3 - live state seamless migration Solves for N = 1

11. Services AWS - tier 1 vmware - tier1, tier2, tier3 (unverified) openstack - tier1 & tier2 (3 underway)

12. Risks (if it goes wrong) tier 1 - downtime only tier 2 - downtime or redundancy(stability) tier 3 - total data loss.

13. Sources of risk. Unmanageable (changing) prices legal damage - changing laws, IP theft corporate espionage nationalist espionage dated provider services (not competitive) provider technical failures

14. Openstack advantage Free markets Linux player direct support Direct control possible Everybody BUT amazon pulling for it.

15. AWS advantage Hardware as a service Massive economy of scale Software as a service (smokers logic)

16. VMware advantage ?? Momentum Migrating VMs? Possibly live?

17. AWS Terms S3 - distributed, static, often public ec2 - vm cloudwatch - nagios cloutdfront - web page service route 53 - DNS service ebs - dedicated disk elb - LB using ebs security groups - network level firewall hadoop - Very large data management api. mortor - hadoop service vpc - permanent VPN connection (and IP migration) rds - database service

18. Openstack related terms gfs - traditional multipath file system gluster - successor to luster, layered over other os xfs - new default RH fileystem btrfs - zfs open functionality KVM - local vm manager

19. Openstack architecture horizon - dashboard (interface) heat - scaling and orchestration ceilometer - metering (metrics) swift - Like S3, disk interface glance - disk management, metadata cinder - block storage (like ebs) quantum - networking nova - compute (hypervisors, kvm)

20. Paas - software services. openshift - platform as a service, openstack or AWS LAMPish smokers solution

21. Iaas - hardware for sale Rackspace cloud HP cloud ebay?

22. Roll your own RDO,stackops - community openstack distros. Architecture.. Head node, cpu1, cpu2, cpu3, cpu4
