The move to
enterprise adoptionTrend
@ShapeBlue
Jan 2012 = 90% public cloudJan 2013 = 50/50 split
In 2013, we will see enterprises doing one of the following:
adopt public cloudbuild private cloudalign with public clouds (technology, process, standards)But, why ?.....

The obligatory cloud definition slide
Self ServiceResource pooling
Rapid Elasticity
Metered Use
@ShapeBlue
Enterprises are virtualised = cap/op ex savingsHowever, operationally often still manual
Still often a service ticket to provision new resourcesLong delivery timesRelatively high operational costsRelies on specialist skillsMargin for human error
On-demand self-service is a cloud driver
@ShapeBlue
Make the most of a global compute estateResources dynamically assigned according to demandWorkloads can be averaged: across departments, across Geos, across times of day, days of month,etcBy pooling resources, reduces the reliance on local capacity planningAbstracts physical resources
Enterprise cloud drivers– Resource pooling
@ShapeBlue
The The XaaS model allows accurate cost measurement

Internal chargeback model much simpler“Shadow IT” can be removed
Enterprise cloud drivers– Measured service

Failure happens – Get used to it

Cloud Era workload
Traditional workload
“I have two types of workload”
“Failure happens”? – no thanks
@ShapeBlue
Traditional workloadsTraditional n-tier applicationsScale & reliance handled by the infrastructureScale by “scaling up”Infrastructure expected to be always available
Traditional Workloads
@ShapeBlue
Cloud era workloadsApplications designed for failureApplications designed for massive scaleScale by “scaling out” (horizontally)
How can an enterprise benefit from both models ?
Cloud Era workloads
@ShapeBlue
Private Cloud
Enterprises will adopt a 2 workload model

Get involved in Apache CloudStack….
@ShapeBlue
Maybe too developer focussed?Would like to see more users/operators/integrators in the communityMaybe two communities could develop?
Mailing lists are cumbersomeThe forums are like wild west townsThe mailing lists can be intimidating
I love the Apache way, but...
