Army G6 Cloud Roadshow Brief

Cloud Computing and Web Hosting Control Panel Feasibility Studies

Where We Are Today
No common operating environment
(Server Hardware & Operating System/Stack)
Hardware and Operating systems purchased by PM’s for individual systems
Not Able to quickly and easily:
Gain Access to Excess Server Resources
Move Servers between physical locations
Migrate to Newer/Faster Hardware

Private Cloud Technology – the NexGen of IT Infrastructure

Enterprise Hosting Evolution Server Colocation Single Website Hosting Multi-Tenant Website Hosting Managed Servers Managed Infrastructure 1995 2009

How is Cloud Different? Traditional IT Security as a Service IT as a Service Infrastructure as a Service Platform as a Service Software as a Service

Cloud Delivery Models The cloud infrastructure is operated solely for an organization. It may be managed by the organization or a third party and may exist on premise or off premise. The cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability The cloud infrastructure is shared by several organizations and supports a specific community that has shared concerns (e.g., mission, security requirements, policy, and compliance considerations). Private Community Hybrid Public NIST Working Definitions v14 CIO/G-6 Area Processing Center CIO/G-6/APC + Mosso Mosso The cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling cloud services.

The End to End Perspective of Cloud Computing Business Perspective Operations Perspective Technical Perspective Cloud Computing is a combination of a Technical, Business & Operational Approaches

Cloud Business Perspective
Common Operating Environment (Hardware/OS)
Commodity Hardware (Reuse of Technical Refreshed Hardware too)
Multi-Tenancy
Automatic Billing
Self Service Portal and Support Desk
Operations Perspective Technical Perspective Business Perspective

Cloud Operations Perspective
On-Demand Self Service
Less Support (Common Operating Environment)
Easily deploy and move servers across hardware platforms and physical location
Business Perspective Technical Perspective Operations Perspective

Technical Perspective
Virtual Server Management (Repeatable Provisioning)
Rapid Elastic and Self Healing characteristics
Location Independent Resource Pooling
Metered Service Model
Commodity Hardware
Operations Perspective Business Perspective Technical Perspective
