Goal: Frame how System Center 2012 (and SP1) deliver unified management for the Cloud OS.
Talking Points
Let’s discuss the capabilities required to deliver on our promise of unified management:
<click> First, you need a “simple” self-service experience to enable your App Owners to specify their requirements. For example, let’s suppose they want to provision a SharePoint service with the following specs:
3 tier .NET architecture
Has a set of configuration and deployment parameters to conform with (e.g. perf thresholds, scale out rules, update domains)
Needs 99.95% availability SLA
Adheres to compliance/security controls around SOX/HIPAA
Need on-demand reporting on key availability metrics that track against SLA
<click> Next, you need a way to understand the topology and architecture of the application service in question. An application deployed in on an abstracted, or cloud computing model is called a “service”. This would necessitate a “service model” that accurately binds the application’s architecture to the underlying resources where it will be hosted. The “service model” would be comprised of:
Service definition information, deployed as “roles”. Roles are like DLLs, i.e. a collection of code with an entry point that runs in its own virtual machine
Front end: e.g. load-balanced stateless web servers
Middle worker tier: e.g. order processing, encoding
Backend storage: e.g. SQL tables or files
Service Configuration information
Update domains
Availability domains
Scale out rules
<click> You will need a set of process automation capabilities to break down this application provisioning request into the enterprise change requests that need to be implemented. This could include setting up the underlying infra and then a set of app configuration/release requests that need to be tracked (and ideally implemented with orchestrated automation)
<click> Next you need a set of provisioning tools that actually configure and deploy the infra and application layers.
<click> the underlying datacenter resources could be physical, virtual, private or public cloud as per the requirements dictated by the application’s service model
<click> once the underlying infrastructure and application service are deployed, they would immediately need to be “discovered” and monitored for reporting and health tracking
<click> There you see how the System Center 2012 components offer these life cycle management capabilities in combination to help you deliver on the Microsoft promise of unified Cloud OS management:
App Controller would offer that self-service experience that allows your application owners manage their apps across on-premises, service provider and Windows Azure environments.
Service Manager offers the standardized self-service catalog that defines “templates” for your applications and infrastructure.
App Controller, Virtual Machine Manager, Service Manager and Operations Manager work together to maintain the service model through the application service life cycle
Orchestrator and Service Manager offer orchestrated automation for the process workflows required to drive your provisioning and monitoring tools
Virtual Machine Manager and Configuration manager can provision physical, virtual and cloud environments
Operations Manager (AVIcode capabilities will be built into Operations Manager) monitors your application services end to end and offers deep app insight to help you deliver predictable SLA
Your datacenter resources could be deployed anywhere from on-premises, service provider and Windows Azure
However, to get to this agile self-service end-state, you will have to start with abstracting your infrastructure and allocating it appropriately so that your business units can deploy and manage their applications on top.
Transition: So, how does System Center 2012 get you to this point where you can deliver unified management across cloud? These can really be categorized into three buckets:
Application Management: Deploying and operating your business applications
Service Delivery & Automation & Automation: Standardizing and automating service and resource provisioning, managing change and access controls, etc.
Infrastructure management: Deploying and operating all the underlying infrastructure on which your business applications and services run.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______
System Center 2012 cloud and datacenter management solutions empower you with a common management toolset for your private and public cloud applications and services. System Center helps you confidently deliver IT as a Service for your business.
System Center 2012 helps your organization consume and deliver IT as a Service by enabling productive infrastructure, predictable applications, and cloud on your terms. System Center 2012 helps you to deliver flexible and cost-effective private-cloud infrastructure to your business units in a self-service model, while carrying forward your existing datacenter investments. Recognizing that applications are where core business value resides, System Center offers deep application insight, which, combined with a “service-centric” approach, helps you deliver predictable application-service levels. Finally, System Center 2012 empowers you to deliver and consume private and public cloud computing on your terms with common management experiences across your hybrid environments.
Productive Infrastructure
System Center 2012 helps you deliver flexible and cost-effective infrastructure with what you already know and own. System Center 2012 helps you integrate heterogeneous datacenter investments, including multi-hypervisor environments. You can pool and abstract your datacenter resources and deliver self-service infrastructure to your business units in a flexible, yet controlled, manner.
Heterogeneous support
To help you carry forward your existing datacenter investments and skillsets, System Center 2012 offers integrated management for your heterogeneous datacenter environments. For example, it offers multi-hypervisor management for Microsoft Hyper-V, VMware vSphere/ESX, and Citrix XenServer with Virtual Machine Manager; cross-platform monitoring of Linux/Unix/Sun Solaris guests with Operations Manager; cross-platform configuration management for Linux and Unix servers with Configuration Manager; and integrated automation across management toolsets from vendors like HP, CA, BMC, EMC, and even VMware with Orchestrator.
Process automation
System Center 2012 helps you simplify and standardize your datacenter with a flexible process automation platform. By automating repetitive tasks, you can lower your costs and improve service reliability. With Orchestrator, you can integrate and extend your existing toolsets and build flexible workflows (or runbooks) that can span across multiple organizational silos and systems. These workflows are then executed in an orchestrated manner through the automation engine built into Orchestrator. Service Manager offers industry-standard service management capabilities (based on ITIL/MOF) which automates core organizational process workflows like incident management, problem management, change management, and release management.
Self-service infrastructure
With the provisioning capability of Virtual Machine Manager, you can pool and abstract your datacenter resources (such as compute, network, and storage) into a private cloud infrastructure fabric, which can then be maintained by Virtual Machine Manager and Operations Manager. You can allocate and delegate this pooled fabric to your business unit IT organizations in a flexible, yet controlled, manner using Virtual Machine Manager. Application owners can consume capacity (and request additional capacity) in a self-service mode using the service catalog offered by Service Manager. Requests for capacity would be fulfilled using the process automation and provisioning capabilities offered by Orchestrator and Virtual Machine Manager respectively.
Predictable Applications
Apps power your business. System Center 2012 helps you deliver predictable application service levels with deep application insight, and holistically manage your application services, which is where your core business value resides.
360 ̊ application monitoring, diagnosis and dev-ops
Operations Manager offers deep application and transaction monitoring insight for .NET applications (and J2EE application server health) to maximize application availability and performance. Operations Manager also integrates with Microsoft Visual Studio through a connector (also enabled with Intellitrace telemetry for SP1) to unlock development-to-operations collaboration, thereby helping you remediate application issues faster, which results in the delivery of predictable SLAs. Easy-to-use reporting and dashboarding allows you to track and communicate your SLAs more effectively. Additionally, with SP1, Global Service Monitor (GSM) offers the “outside-in” view offering a comprehensive 360 degree monitoring.
Comprehensive hybrid application management
Microsoft Server Application Virtualization (SAV), a feature of Virtual Machine Manager, optimizes your modern and existing applications for private cloud deployments with sequenced state separation between the application and underlying infrastructure. SAV dramatically simplifies application servicing (such as upgrades and maintenance) with image-based configuration and management techniques that reduce administrative effort and expense. By decoupling your applications from the infrastructure, SAV helps unlock application portability as appropriate to your business needs. Configuration Manager supports SAV, thereby extending the benefits of SAV to applications and workloads that may be deployed in physical/traditional environments. Through SAV support, Configuration Manager enables easier physical-to-virtual application mobility and in-place application servicing.
System Center 2012 empowers your application and service owners with a common self-service experience across on-premises, service provider and Microsoft clouds, thus enabling comprehensive application management in a hybrid context.
Service-centric approach
In a cloud computing model, a service is a deployed instance of an application along with its associated configuration and virtual infrastructure. System Center 2012 offers a service-centric approach to help you manage your application components in the context of the holistic service that it represents to the business. From provisioning services (visualization, design, composition, deployment, and configuration) to operating them (monitoring, remediation, and upgrades), we help you manage the full lifecycle. For example, Virtual Machine Manager and App Controller enable service-centric provisioning and updates while Operations Manager enables monitoring at the service level.
Your Cloud
Private and public cloud computing on your terms managed with a common toolset. System Center 2012 empowers you to deliver and consume private and public cloud computing on your terms, with common management experiences across your hybrid environments.
Flexibility with delegation and control
Construct and manage clouds across multiple datacenters, multiple infrastructures (such as Microsoft and VMware), and service providers (Windows Azure). Provide delegated authority and tools to enable self-service flexibility across your environments. You retain control across your private and public cloud environments, which is important for enterprise security and compliance requirements while ensuring your IT pros have a key role even as your organization adopts cloud- computing models.
Applications self-service across your hybrid clouds
System Center 2012 empowers your application and service owners with a common self-service experience across on- premises, service provider and Microsoft clouds. With App Controller, you can experience visibility and control, so you can confidently adopt Windows Azure as your enterprise Platform as a Service (PaaS) choice.
Physical, virtual, and cloud management
System Center has historically been known for physical and virtual management in the datacenter. You can also use your familiar on-premises Operations Manager to monitor your Windows Azure applications (using the Monitoring Pack for Windows Azure Applications)—thus extending your common management experience to the cloud. App Controller provides you a single pane of glass with self-service flexibility and control for your application owners to manage their applications and services across private and public clouds, including Windows Azure. Hybrid environments will be the corporate standard for many years; a common management toolset with integrated physical, virtual, IaaS, and PaaS management will help you increase efficiency and optimize ROI.
