4. Introduction to Cloud Computing & Windows Azure Presentation

5. Introduction to Cloud Computing What’s It All About? Why Take It Seriously? Software + Services Azure: Microsoft’s Cloud Services Platform Developer Experience Business Model

6. Clearing up Cloud Terminology 2 nd generation web - social networking Facebook, MySpace, Flickr, blogs, communities Web 2.0 Software you access over the Internet Salesforce.com, NetSuite, Taleo, RightNow SaaS Software as a Service Charge for use of hosted computing resources Pay as you go based on what you use Utility Computing Some software is local, some software runs in the cloud Example: iTunes Software + Services Internet-based development – platform is a data center Run your own software in the cloud and scale it Cloud Computing I n t e r – r e l a t e d

7. Cloud Computing Why Take it Seriously?

8. It’s Big. “The Next Big Thing”

9. It’s Serious. Big Players, Major Investments.

10. It’s Real. You’ll see it in action tonight.

11. It’s Happening Now. Some parts live mid-2009. 2009 Go Live You Are Here 2008-2009 Updates “The software and services era is now. We are writing new software, we will be delivering betas and design previews, and the time to engage is now.” –Steve Ballmer Oct 2008 PDC, CTP

12. Cloud Computing Software + Services

13. Software + Services “Software” – Applications running in the enterprise – What we’re used to “Services” – Services running in the “cloud” – …hosted at a Microsoft Data Center – …accessed over the Internet

14. “Services” Applications in the Cloud Software + Services “Software” Applications On-Premises LB Web + Services Farm ASP.NET / WCF On-Demand Scaling Web + Services Farm ASP.NET / WCF Load-Balanced Servers Database SQL Server Server Cluster Database SQL Data Services On-Demand Scaling

15. S + S: Platform Extending into the Cloud

21. Azure Microsoft’s Cloud Services Platform

22. Azure Cloud Computing Platform Confidential - Presented under NDA

23. Cloud operating system & cloud infrastructure Massive data centers, servers, load balancing, fault domains, virtualization On-demand scaling – near-infinite capacity available Pay as you go business model – only pay for what you use Windows Azure

24. Foundation of Platform is Massive Data Centers

25. Branding - “Live” = consumer Windows Live – Mail, Messenger, Photos, Writer, Toolbar Office Live, Xbox Live, Zune, … “Live” Hosted Consumer Applications

26. Branding - “Online” = business Exchange Online, SharePoint Online, Dynamics CRM Online, … “Online” Hosted Business Applications

27. Building Block Services for your applications Microsoft provides a key set of building blocks …but anyone can create new ones Azure Services

28. Integration of Live Mesh with the Azure platform “Sync, Share, Access” - “Data, Devices, People, and Apps” Software + Services platform for synchronization & collaboration Seamless synchronization of files (photos, documents, etc) and programs Access from anywhere Access from any device Easy sharing with people Live Framework http://www.mesh.com Azure Services: Live Services

29. .NET Services Workflow Cloud equivalent of.NET libraries Microsoft-hosted, highly scalable, developer-oriented services Key building blocks required by many cloud-based and cloud- aware applications. Service BusAccess Control Azure Services:.NET Services Painless access control Frictionless connectivity across applications Define Workflow in the Cloud

30. SQL Analytics Services SQL Server in the cloud Standards-based interface, SOAP and REST Flexible data model, no schema required Geo-replication and transactional consistency of data SQL Reporting Services SQL Data Services Azure Services: SQL Services Database in the cloud

31. Azure.com portal One-stop cloud service management Get the SDK Set up / administer a cloud service account Upload applications Configure application security Change runtime parameters Monitor applications Post software updates Swap between staging and production

32. Azure.com portal

33. Now and Later CTP given out at PDC is limited – Roles: Web Role, Worker Role – Managed applications only – Core functionality in API somewhat limited – Limits on how much resource you can use – U.S. West Coast Data Center Post PDC, drive toward full vision – Any kind of application, managed/unmanaged – More sophisticated functionality in API – Geographically distributed data centers

34. Cloud Computing Business Model

35. What’s In It For the Enterprise? Consumption-based business model – You pay only for what you use – No minimum or long-term commitment I.T. Simplification – Ability to reduce/eliminate in-house data center – Simpler operating/management environment – Leverages existing technology investments and skills – Integrates well with on-premises apps and services Elastic capacity and scalability – Easy to grow as your business grows – No penalty for a reduction in use (for example, a seasonal business) An inexpensive way to experiment

36. Impact of Cloud Services on the Enterprise Datacenter Infrastructure Operations, Patching, OS Management Business Logic Datacenter Business Logic Without Cloud ServicesWith Cloud Services Microsoft Confidential – NDA Only

37. Billing Compute: $ per CPU/hour Durable storage: $ per GB/month External bandwidth: $ per/GB ingress/egress Additional services priced in a similar way Rates not yet disclosed… Expect some of Azure to go live mid-2009 Free for devs to play with in the meantime

38. How to Get Started Go to azure.com – Sign up for a cloud account (may take a few days) – Download the SDKs and VS2008 Extensions Community involvement – Attend these user group meetings – Collaborate online – Find/contribute cloud apps on CodePlex

39. “Hello, Cloud” Cloud App Demo

40. Windows Azure Cloud Computing User Group Thanks for Coming! http://www.CloudComputingUserGroup.com
