Agenda Key considerations to Cloud implementation? Consider…. • What forces drive your adoption of Cloud? • What sort of architecture do you need? • The focus of component architectures? • What are the ‘Deployable Entities’? • How will you ‘refactor’ the organization?4 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

What Forces influence your Cloud Adoption? - Consider three differentiating criteria - This perspective drives your decisions Business Drivers Pure $ savings vs. Business Agility Project Control IT Dept. vs. Business Business Model IT as Support vs. IT as a BusinessIs your cloud project ‘cutting costs’ or ‘driving business’?6 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

Define Your Key Transformations Include both IT & business transformations Traditional Approach Cloud Approach App / system specific Model centric control plane management Operations developed and IT ‘architects’ operations for performed by IT consumer self-service Architecture implemented Build infrastructure up-front, up front (early binding) deploy later (late binding)8 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

Consider an Architecture Strategy This presentation emphasizes ‘integration’ – Virtualization Centric • Potential of increasing complexity over time vs. – Integration Centric • Integration & architectural abstraction offers greater performance & ‘simplicity’9 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Why build an Architecture? “architecture encompasses the set of significant decisions about the organization of a software system including the selection of the structural elements and their interfaces by which the system is composed; behavior as specified in collaboration among those elements; composition of these structural and behavioral elements ……” (Krutchen, Booch, et.al.)© 2011 Oracle Pragmatic Approach to Cloud Computing 12

Hybrid Clouds – Which Kind? Different ways to mix public and private Lifecycle distribution Dev/test cloud - the Common one Test There are many different ‘Hybrids” Production Development Private Cloud Public Cloud Functional distribution Public / private services - a Likely one Workload distribution HR ‘Cloudbursting’ - the Hard one Order to cash Sync Private Cloud CRM Order to cash Order to cash Public Cloud Private Cloud Public Cloud16 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

What Do You Want the Cloud to Do? Start with Common Usage Patterns Augmentation (Elastic scaling) Shared Services Development and Test Resource sharing (consolidation)© 2011 Oracle Cloud Computing – Making IT Simple 17

Build from Scratch vs. Oracle Exadata Commonwealth Bank of Australia Build From Scratch Oracle Exadata Database with Components Reference Configurations Machine Testing and Validation Server Pool pre-configured Faster deployment Installation and Lower Risk Testing and configuration Validation Acquisition of components Installation and configuration Testing and Validation Pre-implementation System sizing Acquisition of Configuration components Take delivery of Oracle Database Machine Weeks to Months Weeks to Months < 1 Week after Delivery • DB deployment time reduced from 3 months to < 1 week22 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

Use a Logical Architecture for Key Abstractions e.g., What will you deploy (it’s more than simple images) Role separation APIsDeployable Entities Images(‘Assemblies’) includeService Templates andContext (aka VDCs) Model Mgmt. Architectural models may be external, Control Separation embedded, or internal Services Logical resources Data 25 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Oracle Cloud API ‘Service Catalog’ Images plus architectural meta-data• Repository of models• Models contain templates and service contracts – Payloads e.g., virtual server images – Application metadata such as configurations and policies• Key components of Oracle’s Cloud API standards 26 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.

Model / Service Management Need to do both• Model management (build-time) • Service management (run-time) – Exposes resources to developers – Capacity management – Stores developer’s models – Service management• Developer’s main point of • Operator’s main point of contact interaction with the cloud for the cloud• Defines services • Provisions resources• Includes solution catalog • Includes configuration repository (deployable entities) (current state) 27 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder Automating deployment of ‘assemblies’ config1 config2 Assembly = Appliances Dev/Test Environment (VM Templates + configuration Metadata) + Production Environments relationships & start order Metadata • Package up complex structure from dev/test and reconstitute in production • Minimize setup time and risk of hard-to-debug configuration errors • Easily replicate in production with minor variations • Each instance has well-contained configuration parameters for flexibility28 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

‘Enterprise’ Private Clouds are Different I N SaaS Saa• Consider the 5 NIST essential characteristics T R A PaaS Paa – On-demand self-service, Resource pooling, N Rapid elasticity, Measured service, Broad network access E IaaS Iaa T• Consider Self Service – Public developer cloud – provisioned in minutes, but no controls or corporate governance – Enterprise private cloud – need controls, standards, prioritization, etc. … Enterprise cloud – Faster to deploy than traditional IT, but slower than public cloud• How ‘SELF’ should self service be? – Who does what? 31 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates.

A Pragmatic Approach to Cloud Computing Abstract As organizations adopt cloud computing, they need to define an approach that matches the combined advantages of IT standardization, consolidation, and self-service, with their specific business drivers. This session outlines Oracles Cloud Reference Architecture and outlines fundamental considerations to implement a cloud strategy. Methods are presented for aligning critical architectural decisions and key organizational transformations with cloud strategy, as well as the important criteria to consider when selecting cloud service providers and cloud enabling technologies.48 Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates.
