"Wipro is one of India's largest publicly traded companies and the seventh largest IT services firm in the world. In this session, we showcase the structured methods that Wipro has used in enabling enterprises to take advantage of the cloud. These cover identifying workloads and application profiles that could benefit, re-structuring enterprise application and infrastructure components for migration, rapid and thorough verification and validation, and modifying component monitoring and management.
Several of these methods can be tailored to the individual client or functional context, so specific client examples are presented. We also discuss the enterprise experience of enabling many non-IT functions to benefit from the cloud, such as sales and training. More functions included in the cloud increase the benefit drawn from a cloud-enabled IT landscape.
Session sponsored by Wipro."

Enterprise Imperatives for Cloud
4. Large Education Services Provider: Migration
Assess the application portfolio
Develop heat map and roadmap for entire
application portfolio
Environment build in AWS Public Cloud and
VPC
Secure Migration/Deployment of Apps in
AWS.
Challenges
Wipro as an SI proposed :
Use of Amazon VPC – VPN tunnel between
Client DC & AWS
Creation of Public & Private Subnets to
segregate traffic.
Usage of AWS Direct Connect for
interconnection of Client DC with AWS.
Encryption at the Volume level to protect
data at rest on Amazon EBS volumes
Life Cycle Management of encryption keys
used for Volume encryption (EBS)
Host Based Security for EC2 instances
covering the following aspects:
Host Intrusion detection
Host Firewall.
Client can make use of Amazon Web
Services (IaaS) to provision quickly the
infrastructure required for the project teams
for environments like Development, Testing
& Staging, Production and Service
Management.
Deploy security tools in the AWS Cloud with
minimal foot print in Client Datacenter
Design operational processes for Encryption
Key Management and Host Based Security
Movement of 5 Applications into AWS with
approximately 300 Virtual instances and 200
EBS Volumes secured across the movement
into steady-state
Proposed Solution Projected Benefits
Large Education Services Provider : Migration of Applications to AWS
Client profile
A large Education Services Provider
Scope
Secure Migration/Deployment of Apps in AWS public Cloud
5. Financial Institution: Migration of Applications to AWS
Reduce license spend on COTS
software
Streamline data center and
infrastructure expenses
Accelerate release cycles
Challenges
Integrated assessment of
infrastructure, application and data
elements
Reviewing available solution options
(retire, consolidate, transform) instead
of only a “lift-and-shift” approach
Pilot migration before large scale
“factory” model deployment
Workload variations became trivial to
manage
Standardization led to speedier
enterprise process adoption
Embracing new solution
components, promoted innovation
Proposed Solution Projected Benefits
Client profile
Prominent Financial Institution
Scope
Reduce software and hardware costs
6. Consumer Goods Firm: Business
Heterogeneity of applications that
complicated business process
execution and operation
Inefficiency and latency because of
different processes across regions
Cost of managing this diversity
Challenges
Standardized notification, workflow,
dashboards and analytics
established
Base platform running atop AWS,
ensured scalability and reliable
connections to diverse back end
systems
Business process execution,
integrated with application and
infrastructure management
Open Source components
contributed to license savings
Accelerated go-live dates for new
standardized process rollout
Support headcount reduced because
of standard platform and self-
service/automation levels
Proposed Solution Projected Benefits
Consumer Goods Firm: Business Processing Platform on AWS
Client profile
Global Consumer Packaged Goods Firm
Scope
Deliver Business Process Outcomes using Platform as a Service

8. Opportunities Through The Cloud
Opportunities Through The Cloud - Enablement Decision Making Process
Reduce Number of Applications – from a large
number to a number close to the Best-in-class
benchmark - Redundancies in IT because of
mergers and acquisition, un-governed growth
Reduce Cost - over and above outsourcing and
offshore cost savings; leverage economy of scale
by reducing variations
Reduce Complexity & Risk - Challenges of
aging, silo’d and unmaintainable systems leading
to questionable business value of IT
Enhance alignment with Business + IT Strategy
& Enterprise Architecture – align all application
SW, products, packages, platforms, infrastructure
with chosen enterprise standards
Reduce Number of Technologies/Platforms –
reduce variations
Standardize & Simplify Business Processes -
Reduce Process Variations - across products,
geographies and contracts
Increase Business Performance/Agility –
increase KPIs across business processes through
better alignment with IT
