7. The promise of Cloud computing
is to commoditize the availability
of dynamic/scalable/fault tolerant
compute resources and to rapidly
construct them to meet
organizational needs.
26. CM should provide the ability to:
✓ specify node configuration as a set of components
27. CM should provide the ability to:
✓ specify node configuration as a set of components
✓ specify the relationships between components
28. CM should provide the ability to:
✓ specify node configuration as a set of components
✓ specify the relationships between components
✓ inspect the state of a node or component
29. CM should provide the ability to:
✓ specify node configuration as a set of components
✓ specify the relationships between components
✓ inspect the state of a node or component
✓ simulate synchronization to the spec
30. CM should provide the ability to:
✓ specify node configuration as a set of components
✓ specify the relationships between components
✓ inspect the state of a node or component
✓ simulate synchronization to the spec
✓ build a query-able inventory
47. Process:
Develop configuration manifests.
Build images using configurations manifests.
Validate that the image is built correctly.
Deploy images and complete any final configuration
using configuration management.
60. Summary:
Images have limitations and are not generally sufficient
to manage complex applications.
Configuration Management can significantly slow
down provisioning time while providing transparency and
control.
61. Summary:
Images have limitations and are not generally sufficient
to manage complex applications.
Configuration Management can significantly slow
down provisioning time while providing transparency and
control.
A Hybrid approach can speed up deployment time while
providing composable infrastructure component and a
transparent image building process that better delivers the
promise of Cloud computing.
