This document summarizes an AWS summit hosted by D2SI. It discusses how AWS services can provide elasticity, efficiency, agility, and enable innovation. Continuous delivery is enabled through AWS services. Case studies demonstrate using AWS for HPC workloads, storage with CEPH, and providing a hybrid cloud for XenApp workloads. Automating infrastructure provisioning with templates is discussed.

11. Retour d’expérience du POC CEPH sur AWS
 Facile à installer
 Solution scalable (Ajout/suppression de nœud)
 Solution fiable
(Pas de corruption avec 66% de l’infra down)
 Performance résistant aux pannes
 Générique : Stockage Block et Objet
 Stockage en mode fichier
 Capacité de debug
 Documentation en ligne
 Rapidité de déploiement (2H)
 Ajouter une machine (5 Minutes)
 Template et Automatisation (Ajout dans le cluster)
 200€ pour 1 mois de POC
 Stabilité des Performances EBS
without Provisioned IOPS
 Prévilégier les EBS avec provisioned IOPS ou les
disques internes

12. EC2 Instances allow you to scale compute capacity up and down as needed
with the flexibility of ad-hoc provisioning
Cluster Compute , 3D processing, I/O intensive workloads, enhanced
networking, can all be handled with EC2 specific instance types
Very low price/compute ratio and the possibility to bid for unused capacity
with Spot Instances
