2. Agenda Participants will learn A cloud computing recap. What is our cloud like and why do we have it? Lab: VPN, IDs, shared file server, tool install and configuration Launch an instance, attach volumes Test application on an instance

3. Cloud Computing (recap)

4. Remove the cost of acquisition, install, and configuration Cloud Computing Benefits Right machineRight personRight skillsRight time

5. Instance Image Launch Instance More Benefits Flexibility of Volumes (for example) Can move to bigger instance Backs up only the pertinent data DO NOT USE system volumes for critical data /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2

6. What is our cloud? Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS) Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud (UEC) is Ubuntu's Eucalyptus-powered cloud Node Controller Node Server 1 Admin Client Interface VPN/LAN Node Controller VM To Manage Cloud VM User To Connect To Instances Node Server 3 Node Controller VM Node Server 2 Node Controller VM Node Server 11 VM … Private Switch Build/Backup Server Cloud ControllerWalrus Controller Cirrusmatic Server Persistence Storage Image Storage Cluster ControllerStorage Controller Samba file server Cirrusdata Server

7. Purpose The cloud environment exists to fulfill the mission of SHARPn and other related projects at Mayo Clinic.mission of SHARPn …will enhance patient safety and improve patient medical outcomes through the use of an electronic health record. … We propose research that will generate a framework of open-source services that can be dynamically configured to transform EHR data into standards-conforming, comparable information suitable for large-scale analysis, inferencing, and integration of disparate health data. …to enable the use of EHR data for secondary purposes, such as clinical research and public health. By creating tangible, scalable, and open-source tools, services and software for large-scale health record data sharing, this project will ultimately help improve the quality and efficiency of patient care through the use of an electronic health care record.

8. Setting Expectations Our cloud is a protected, non-public resource Government regulations Mayo Clinic security policies Our cloud is a research system not a production system The cloud is not monitored 24x7 Maintenance is completed during business hours Users setting up instances must have Linux know-how and some system administration skills Data backup is available but must be set up by the user Help is available if needed
