No Cloud Without Automation!
Because Cloud ComputingWill Be an Epic FailWithout Automation

Where We are Coming From

Legacy Computing

Data Center
Hardware
OS / Standard Software
Shared Applications
Individual Applications
IT Did Not Change As Much As We Like to Tell Everyone Else !

The Problem With Legacy Computing
The Number of IT Systems and Thus the Dependency on IT Systems Increases Constantly

Number of IT Applications

Staff
Infrastructure
Operational Cost (RTB)
Time
Operating Cost of IT Has Grown Exponentially. (Today 53% of Cost is Infrastructure)

Unfortunately, IT Budgets Are Capped !

UnderCapacity
Over Capacity
The IT We Have Is Vastly Oversized! And Most of
Our IT Guys Even Like this “Buffer Capacity”

Why Is Cloud Computing So Appealing ?

Clouds Do It All !
Distribution Eliminates Overcapacity
Real-time Scalability Supports Business

If Everything Went into the Cloud !

Budget Constraints Would Be Met, Innovation Would Be Boosted and IT Would Become Green !

What Are the CurrentCloud Toipcs?

Outside Germany
SaaS Is Accepted. IaaS and PaaS Are In Focus
For the Transition Phase and Workload Diversity
Is the Big Question.
12 |

In Germany
SaaS In Focus, Driven by Vendors.
Delays Due to Security Concerns.
Cloud Still For Startups Only?
13 |

The Surprises We
Encounter When
Implementing
Clouds

The Two Problems With the Cloud
Not Everything Can Go into the Cloud
Operational Staff Expenses Increase
15 |

Most Things Are Not Cloudable !
Standardization Required !
Reimplementation Required !
16 |

What Is Cloudable
R&D
Number Crunching
None Differentiating Applications
17 |

What Is NOT Cloudable (yet) ?
More Than 70% of All Business Critical IT Systems and Applications
18 |

And Operational Expense Grows
19 |
Parallelization Increases Complexity
Dynamic Scaling Increases Complexity
Dynamic Distribution Increases Complexity

The Cloud Is Missing an Essential !

Clouds Still Overcompensate Savings through Increase in Operational Cost.

So How Can We Fix That and Make Full Use of the Cloud ?

Get Virtualized In a Private Cloud

Not Moving Is NOT an Option.
Private Clouds Can Be a First Step.

And Mainly, Learn How to Run
Your Clouded IT Automatically

Today We Believe That Automation Means Creating “a Script” In One Way or the Other
Application Operation

It Is All About Knowledge !

To Perform a Task All You Do Is Recombine What You Already Know

An Autopilot System

Unlocking the Cloud With Autopilot for IT Operation
“The Autopilot unlocks the Cloud because it allows for none standard images as well as constant change and dynamic reallocation”
PS: And It Also Works on Legacy Systems While They Are on Their Way to the Cloud

Cloud + Autopilot = Happiness !

Budget Constraints ARE Met, IT Is Green and Innovation Finally Gets the Funding It Deservers
