• TOSCA is an important new open cloud technology, supported by a large and growing number of international industry leaders
• It addresses critical cloud application challenges:1. Speed and accuracy moving apps to Cloud
• TOSCA captures knowledge to automate rapid implementation and deployment• TOSCA spans the entire technology stack and multiple Clouds
2. Agility adapting to change (Business and IT)• TOSCA enables holistic lifecycle automation ensuring Integrity, Security and
Compliance• TOSCA reduces complexity by expressing application requirements
independently from infrastructure capabilities3. Choice of Cloud vendor and technology
• TOSCA enables flexible deployment and migration on different Clouds while maintaining needed functionality, quality and manageability
• TOSCA is a recognized OASIS industry standard, aligned with key open source projects (e.g., OpenStack, Cloudify, Eclipse)

Call to action for the CIO• If you intend to use the Cloud for complex applications,
TOSCA impacts your Technology Strategy!
• Determine how leveraging TOSCA can benefit YOU– Talk to your network of trusted technology advisors– Talk to your vendors and platform providers – Charter your CTO office to investigate – we can deliver deep
dive material
TOPICS FOR THE OFFICE OF THE CTO AND ENTERPRISE ARCHITECTS ORG
Overview of Challenges (to CTOs)• How do I optimize time-to-value for moving apps to Cloud?• How do I leverage domain expert knowledge and best practices
as cloud applications become more complex?• How can I support business dynamics and IT change agility while
keeping IT costs balanced?• How do I scale to support growing business?• How do I keep Development & Operations aligned while
optimizing time-to-value and continuous delivery of cloud applications?

<meta slide: template for following “challenge” slides>“Challenge xyz”
• Problem statement• How does TOSCA solve xyz?• Why is TOSCA unique?
How do I optimize time-to-value for creating and moving apps to Cloud?
• Accelerate IT learning curve while migrating existing enterprise applications to the Cloud– Leverage best internal & external expertise to prevent costly trial and
error– Rapidly unleash the business benefit potential of Cloud
• Use of existing TOSCA models– Bundling of application products with TOSCA model ready-to-use– Best practices composed by communities, consultants, cloud service
providersleveraging application lifecycle management expertise of recognized industry experts
– OASIS TOSCA guidelines standardize a high quality– Allows rapid deployment of applications
How do I leverage domain expert knowledge and best practices as cloud apps become more complex?
• Powerful new mechanism to capture and leverage expert knowledge– ISV, System Integrators, infrastructure vendors, universities, open
contributors (e.g. OpenStack, Eclipse, Dev communities)– Marketplaces / libraries for cloud application models structured as
TOSCA content • Preserve and leverage existing investments in scripts,
workflows, etc.– TOSCA enforces reusability by a structured development and delivery
approach• Start today to leverage TOSCA principles and methodologies in
your enterprise architect community
How can I support business dynamics and IT change agility while keeping IT costs balanced?
• TOSCA contributes to reduced IT costs by supporting transformation to the Cloud
• Dynamically adapt to changing business conditions TOSCA enables choice of cloud service providers incl. private/managed/public clouds
• TOSCA supports necessary governance of IT supply chain while providing needed IT agility to Lines-of-Business
How do I scale to support growing business?
• Agile business needs to adapt to changing conditions rapidly– Seasonal changes– Special / unforeseeable events– Business growth / shrink– Merger & Acquisition, divestiture
TOSCA is revolutionizing change management Enable & support full automation of planned & unplanned changes Adopt, harmonize and modernize the common IT standards, governance,
compliance regulations after M&A Automate the b2b integration for new business partner onboarding Accelerate agile lifecycle iterations along the Dev-Test-QA-Production chain Leverage other experts’ documentation, automated solutions and
tools for modeling & orchestration Decoupling application requirements from infrastructure capabilities
How do I keep Development & Operations aligned while optimizing time-to-value and
continuous delivery of cloud applications?• OASIS TOSCA is the most comprehensive cloud
application-centric open standard• TOSCA model unified view minimizes the impact of
change and maximizes productivity while simplifying DevOps across all environments
• TOSCA enables transparency and understanding of applications and their dependencies across multiple clouds and throughout their lifecycle
• TOSCA-based comparison and automation of actual/target configurations supports governance, risk and compliance management
How do I preserve choice of Cloud vendor, platform and technology?
TOSCA as an Open Standard offers• Portable service description• Encapsulation of best practices in a provider neutral fashion• Modular and composable approach
Benefits• Choices of cloud service providers• Flexibility to change cloud service providers over time• Interoperability across multiple cloud service providers• High quality of service through re-use and adaptability• Choice of service quality and price
