Agenda

3. DevOps

4. ▶ DevOps is a practice that emphasizes the collaboration of software developers
and IT operations while automating the process of software delivery and
infrastructure changes
▶ Benefits #1:
– Faster delivery of
features

5. From Agile to Continuous Delivery and DevOps
▶ Acceptance test driven development process
▶ Tight collaboration between business and delivery teams
▶ Cross-functional teams include QA and operations
▶ Automated build, testing, database migration and deployment
▶ Incremental development on mainline with continuous integration
▶ Solutions always production ready
▶ Release tied to business needs, not operational constraints

What are Dev and Ops needs
I want a self service and
automated platform for
provisionning and deployment
from my dev factory.
It needs to support my
existing apps but also
containers and Paas.
I am a Dev I am an Ops
I need to propose a self
service platform that enforces
our security policies and
leverages our existing
infrastructure and
automation scripts.
It needs to be evolutive.

7. 7
Challenges to address in the enterprise
to make DevOps a reality
Collaboration and
governance
Self-service IT for
Dev & Ops
Heterogeneous
automation
Fine grained-
control on
infrastructure
access and
available resources
and services
Hybrid
infrastructures,
static and dynamic
Need to tackle these alltogether

8. 8
Not all enterprises are startups
…and they have to deal with legacy

OASIS TOSCA
for applications portability across clouds
OASIS TOSCA defines the interoperable description
of applications;
(components, relationships, dependencies,
requirements, and capabilities)
…thereby enabling portability and automated
management across cloud providers regardless of
underlying platform or infrastructure thus
expanding customer choice, improving reliability,
and reducing cost and time-to-value.

12. 12
Choosing the right orchestrator
Orchestration and integration are key
▶ What we want :
Complete Application Lifecycle orchestration
On Hybrid Infrastructure
Standard-based blueprint orchestrator for
simplified integration (support of TOSCA)
Flexible workflow engine, allowing
custom workflows implementation
Extensive integration capabilities
Day 2 management features
Security and high availability
Ops runtime dashboards
Cloudify offers it

19. Use Cases

20. ▶ Context
Digitalisation program: 80% of applications on the cloud (Private and Public) by 2020. It means
hundreds of application on thousands of compute nodes. They want to be able to deploy a full
application, and provision its underlying infrastructure, in one click.
▶ Targets
Reduce Time To Market
Reduce Project and application hosting costs
Adapt to business needs with more product releases and better quality
▶ Challenges
High number of applications with very heterogeneous technologies and functional usages.
NoOps is required for economical balance
▶ Solution
TOSCA as a norm and alien4cloud as DevOps platform.
▶ Immediate results
TTM reduced from 18 to 6 months
-8% on project costs
Close to 0 production incident
▶ Journey to Success
Phase 0 (2016): Integrate A4C and enforce Security
Phase 1 (early 2017): Platform open without provisioning on private Cloud
Phase 2 (spring 2017): Deploy applications in self service (+100 apps; +1000 depl./week)
Phase 3 (summer 2017): industrialization, Containers, extension to Public Cloud (AWS) with
complete automation
Customer use case : Digital Transformation for
French Top 3 Bank

21. 21
Customer Use Case : Big Data as a service
for a saas provider
The challenge : Big Data application at scale
▶ On-demand Hadoop, self-service provisioning on
Private Clouds
▶ Central distribution of Hadoop solutions as a
Self-Service for the Business User
▶ No in-house expertise on complex Hadoop based Big
Data solutions
The solution :
▶ Application deployment solutions and methodology,
specific developments for custom integration, consulting
and training
▶ Custom blueprints, data lake & analytics components
(MapR dist)+ Alien4cloud + Cloudify + Openstack
Benefits
▶ Accelerate Time to Market of Hadoop cluster
provisioning (from days to minutes)
▶ Leverage Openstack between Business organizations
▶ Easy adaptation of the standard Hadoop topology to
Business entity requirements

22. Conclusion

23. Alien4Cloud contributes to the benefits of DevOps.
▶ Using Oasis TOSCA, Alien4Cloud promotes cloud
portability by decoupling application design from
infrastructure.
▶ The components catalog and blueprints studio
help collaboration between teams and promotes
self service mode.
▶ The open/plugin model facilitates reusability and
evolutivity
