2. Primary use cases On boarding Migrate existing applications to cloud
Fastest, most cost effective, systematic way to get on a cloud
Hybrid/Federated
Continuous and incremental “On boarding”
Cloud bursting
No lock-in
Cloud protection: instance, region, vendor
Enterprise App Store
Dynamic catalog image assembly
Linear vs. exponential image management
ISV distribution
Pre-installed, pre-configured software distribution
Fastest time to deployment
Reusable demo/poc, pre-configured implementations

3. Dynamic catalog image assembly
Enterprise App Stores
Dynamic catalog image assembly
VMsprawl is a bigger problem than server sprawl
Cloud scale is all about automation
Self service is a foundational theme

4. What’s the root problem an EAS is addressing?
The cloud industry’s current approach to ecosystem mgmt adds no value to published components and lacks the concept of “bundles”
Large scrolling list of images is overwhelming
AND ….
customers don’t use single components - they build complete stacks

Imagine a simple, early, ecosystem use-case
2 Certified Operating Systems
1 Foundational element say JBoss
3 partner offerings, which a customer might use on their own or integrated into a WebSphere stack
Operating System
Need to cover 32 and 64 bit
Only 1 release at the moment, what happens when new release of OS?
Partner Products
Customers might want up to 12 different combinations of these items
What happens as the number of partners grows?

6. Sprawl the result of pre-built images?

What about different version, hypervisor, cloud vectors

9. Operational stacks and “images”

10. Frictionless dynamic composition
None

11. How the enterprise consumes applications
Use cases:
Cloud catalog - Dynamic composition OS+Mgmt+Srvs+App
Telcos services offering for SMB or Public
Apps operations offering for company function – F&A, Dev, Sales
Streamlined ISV delivery
Flexible, loosely coupled set of components:
Purpose fronted – Store canvas or front end
Repository/Catalog – Where images/apps are stored
Provisioning engine – Life cycle manager
Operational stacks – Where the apps run i.e. Cloud

13. Enterprise App Store (EAS)
Dynamic catalog image assembly
CloudSprawl is a bigger problem than server sprawl or VMsprawl
Simplified mage selection
Self-service, on-demand provisioning of server apps
No cloud lock-in
Operational efficiency at cloud scale
Standardize and automate configurations
Easy add-in model
