Azure Cloud Services – Overview Presentation
© Arbela Technologies Corp www.ArbelaTech.com @ArbelaTech 2
Azure and cloud
In this session you will learn that Azure has much more to
offer than just infrastructure services. We will cover how
Azure can be utilized for integration services (Azure App
Services), document services (Azure Document DB),
Web/Mobile Apps, Machine Learning and more. The goal
is to provide an overview of services and how they may
apply to your implementations today.

Cloud Computing Patterns
Greater business agility
- Respond to changing
business demands more
readily
- Access anywhere any
device
Greater resource agility
- IT can focus on value add
services vs. maintenance &
deployments

What is “Cloud”
© Arbela Technologies Corp www.ArbelaTech.com @ArbelaTech
CLOUD COMPUTING
© Arbela Technologies Corp www.ArbelaTech.com @ArbelaTech
Multi-Tenant vs. Single Tenant
• Single Tenant
• Single instance running for a single company
• Unique O/S, DB, Application for each company
• More flexibility, more secure, more work to maintain
• Think Applications on your laptop
• Multi Tenant
• Single instance shared across multiple companies
• Single Update to update the whole software ecosystem
• Less Flexible, Less Secure, Easier to maintain
• Think Hotmail or Gmail
© Arbela Technologies Corp www.ArbelaTech.com @ArbelaTech
Cloud Options – Hybrid Approach
Hybrid Approach allows for certain utilization of cloud functionality such
as:
• For Production Environment Support
• Disaster Recovery (DR)
• User General Support
• Training
• Core Environment Management
• For non-production or development environments (Dev, Test)
• Backup
• Maintenance
• Business Intelligence & Reporting

Virtual Machines and
Containers

Virtual Machines
• Cloud basic building blocks
• Full control over virtual machines with
virtual hard disks
• Install and run software yourself
• Nearly identical to traditional on
premise servers and virtualization
• Easiest way to move existing workloads
to the cloud
• Scale additional instances on-demand
or automatically based on load
• Only pay for what you use
© Arbela Technologies Corp www.ArbelaTech.com @ArbelaTech
• Much like VM’s they are their own isolated boxes
• However unlike VM’s that require an OS for each VM – containers can
leverage the same OS
• Used to isolate multiple applications running on the same server

Cloud Services
• Services that run in the cloud
• Access & manage general purpose VM’s
• ERP deployments
• Dev, Test, Demo right from LCS or Azure
Marketplace
• Web Roles
• Customized for each web application as
supported by IIS & ASP.NET – usually front end
users
• Worker Roles
• General development, long running tasks
• Can be accessed via Remote Desktop,
Remote App or via Web Client

© Arbela Technologies Corp www.ArbelaTech.com @ArbelaTech
• Identity and security
management in the cloud
• Enables hybrid authentication
between cloud and on premise
through trusted domains
• Enables single sign-on across
the enterprise from your AD
account (oAuth, o365, local
AD domain, WebEx, Skype,
SalesForce, Box, CRM, global
domains and many more)

ThyssenKrupp – Service powering by Azure Analytics
Challenge
• ThyssenKrupp Elevator maintains more than 1.1
million elevators worldwide, including those at
some of the world’s most iconic buildings.
ThyssenKrupp wanted to better compete in its
industry by offering dramatically increased
uptime, taking preventive maintenance a step
further to predictive and even pre-emptive
service.
Solution
• ThyssenKrupp teamed up with Microsoft to
create a connected asset monitoring system
based on Microsoft Azure IoT services that
connects thousands of sensors and systems in its
elevators to the cloud and draws this data into a
dashboard available on PCs and mobile devices
for a real-time view of key performance
indicators.
27
Benefits
• Increases reliability through predictive maintenance
and rapid, remote diagnostic capabilities
• Reduces costs for ThyssenKrupp and its customers
• Rich, real-time data visualization
• Data continually feeds into dynamic predictive
models
• Two-way flow of data enables diagnostics mode and
remote elevator commands

Analytics
© Arbela Technologies Corp www.ArbelaTech.com @ArbelaTech
• Big Data Storage and
elasticity
• Recognition of human
interactions and intent
• Dashboards / Visualization
(PowerBI)
• Information Management

Backup – On-Premise to Azure - Disaster Recovery as a Service
• Azure Site Recovery (ASR) allows
for replication into the cloud for;
• Host based Hyper-V Replication
• Guest-based VM Ware Replication
• SQL Always On Replication
• AD Replication
• Can set automated failover and
manual actions through scripting
and runbooks
• Failback to your datacenter when
it’s back up
• Remote health monitoring
