Innovation Days 2008: Architecture Principles For S+S

Heads in the Cloud, Feet on the Ground Philip Meyer Technology Specialist – Hosting Microsoft Pty Ltd philme@microsoft.com

Heads in the Cloud, Feet on the Ground When it comes to running applications, organizations today face a tension between control and economy of scale Economy of Scale Low High Control High Low

Heads in the Cloud, Feet on the Ground Economy of Scale Low High Control High Low Application runs on-premise Buy my own hardware, and manage my own data center Application runs at a hoster Pay someone to host my application using hardware that I specify Application runs using cloud platform Pay someone to host my application without specifying the hardware (they promise to be “infinitely” scalable) Application is supplied by a vendor Pay for someone’s hosted application. Don’t care about the hardware, as long as it works.

Heads in the Cloud, Feet on the Ground Tension between build vs. buy Build vs. Buy Build Buy

Heads in the Cloud, Feet on the Ground “ Packaged” Application An application that I buy “off the shelf” and run myself “ Home Built” Application An application that I develop and run myself Build vs. Buy Build Buy Hosted “ Home Built” An application that I develop myself, but run at a hoster Hosted “ Packaged” An application that I buy “off the shelf” and then run at a hoster “ Home Built” using cloud An application that I develop myself, that is hosted using cloud platform “ Packaged” using cloud An application that I buy “off the shelf”, that is hosted using cloud platform “ Software as a Service” A hosted application that I buy from a vendor “ Platform as a Service” A vendor hosted development and runtime environment

Big Pharmaceutical Example “ Too costly to run this myself, but I’ve made too many customizations” “ Packaged” Application “ Home Built” Application Hosted “ Home Built” Hosted “ Packaged” “ Home Built” using cloud “ Packaged” using cloud “ Software as a Service” “ Platform as a Service” Clinical Trial Molecule Research HR System Email CRM ERP

Big Pharmaceutical Example “ CRM and Email are commodity services – They have no customizations, and it’s cheaper for someone else to run these” “ Packaged” Application “ Home Built” Application Hosted “ Home Built” Hosted “ Packaged” “ Home Built” using cloud “ Packaged” using cloud “ Software as a Service” “ Platform as a Service” Clinical Trial Molecule Research HR System Email CRM ERP

Big Pharmaceutical Example “ I can’t afford to maintain this old HR application written in VB – it’s driving me mad!” “… but due to regulatory issues, I cannot store my HR data off-premise” “ Packaged” Application “ Home Built” Application Hosted “ Home Built” Hosted “ Packaged” “ Home Built” using cloud “ Packaged” using cloud “ Software as a Service” “ Platform as a Service” Clinical Trial Molecule Research HR System Email CRM ERP

Big Pharmaceutical Example “ I wish I had access to cheaper compute and storage when I need it” “ Packaged” Application “ Home Built” Application Hosted “ Home Built” Hosted “ Packaged” “ Home Built” using cloud “ Packaged” using cloud “ Software as a Service” “ Platform as a Service” Clinical Trial Molecule Research Email CRM ERP HR System

Big Pharmaceutical Example “ THIS is where I want to spend my IT resources – I’m going to double down on this application!” “ Packaged” Application “ Home Built” Application Hosted “ Home Built” Hosted “ Packaged” “ Home Built” using cloud “ Packaged” using cloud “ Software as a Service” “ Platform as a Service” Clinical Trial Molecule Research Email CRM ERP HR System

Architectural Principles for Software + Services
