4. Hybrid cloud as a goal
Making Hybrid Cloud a reality presents
challenges:
• Standard configuration and provisioning templates
for cloud workloads and infrastructure
• IT staff skills able to fully exploit cloud management
and automation tools
• Ability to use cloud to drive innovation, agility and
competitive advantage
• Effective use of automation, self-service
and orchestration tools
Source: IDC CloudView Survey, December, 2014, n=3463 worldwide respondents
From a recent IDC survey, 89.5% of respondents state “strong desire” for Hybrid Cloud

Systems Hybrid Cloud Use Cases
6
“Leveraging current Power & z
Systems on-Premise capacity for
deploying Linux Workloads.”
“Simple deployment (patterns)* and
lifecycle management of VM’s via a
single glass pane.”
“Reduce overhead/licensing costs
for workloads that benefits by
running on Power & z Systems.”
“Rapid deployment of AIX, IBM i,
Linux on Power, and Linux on z
VMs on a consistent platform as
production with seamless roll out.”

7. Hybrid cloud environments require speed and
simplified point of control to manage VMs across
multiple platforms
VMware vRealize® Automation™ via OpenStack
API's enables a single point of control for IT
organizations to manage multiple platforms and
cloud infrastructures (both on and off premise)
- Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) capability
with lifecycle management of VMs for AIX, i
and Linux on PowerVM, Linux on PowerKVM
for IBM Power Systems, Linux on z/VM and
KVM on z for IBM z Systems
- Platform as a Service (PaaS) capability
extended with 250+ IBM CloudBuilder
patterns for implementing IBM and non-IBM
application software
Why IBM Systems for Hybrid Cloud?
IBM Open by Design
Note: *PaaS capability will be available in 2017

8. Logical Architecture of integration to IBM Power & z Systems
via OpenStack endpoint from vRealize Automation
• vRealize Automation consumes northbound OpenStack APIs via REST
For IBM Power Systems: IBM PowerVC provides the OpenStack API’s
For IBM z Systems, there are several OpenStack options: IBM Cloud Manager for
OpenStack, IBM Cloud Managed Appliance, Suse OpenStack Cloud

9. VMware vRealize Automation Architecture uses IBM PowerVC
and OpenStack to provision workloads to IBM Power & z
Systems
*Note: Cloud Managed Appliance (CMA) @ Liberty for z/VM, Suse OpenStack Cloud 6 for z/VM, IBM Cloud Manager for OpenStack 4.2 for z/VM & 4.3 for KVM
