Abstract
Please join us for a detailed education session on the newest
hybrid cloud monitoring capabilities in CA Unified Infrastructure
Management. We will explore how CA Unified Infrastructure
Management continues to deliver on its vision of powerful,
unified monitoring that is easy to set up, administer and use.
This session will cover the new hybrid cloud monitoring
capabilities and monitoring public cloud (AWS), private cloud
(OpenStack), hyperconverged infrastructure (Nutanix) and
containers (Docker). With comprehensive monitoring coverage
of the technologies that are driving the evolution of modern
data centers, IT operations now has the tools to quickly pinpoint
and troubleshoot problems that span private and public clouds.

Hybrid Cloud
 Definition
– Secure consumption of resources from two or more of the following
sources – traditional IT, private cloud, colocation, public cloud
 Benefits
– Flexibility
– Cost effectiveness
– Security
– Agility
– Risk Management

Hybrid Cloud Monitoring Requirements
 Single, unified solution to bridge, public and private clouds as
well as traditional IT infrastructure
 High scale and performance to handle large elastic
environments
 Elastic configuration at scale
 Service Level Validation
 Multi-tenancy

OpenStack

OpenStack Monitoring Solution
 Discover and visualize key Openstack components
 Report on key events and metrics at all layers
– Admin dashboard – performance and health of hosts
– Tenant dashboard – performance and health of VMs
– OpenStack services health – Nova, Neutron, Cinder, others
 Analyze, diagnose and troubleshoot common issues such as
service failures, poor performance, capacity planning, load
balancing etc.

Docker

Docker Overview
 Application virtualization – portable, secure, efficient
 De facto delivery vehicle for cloud applications; second most
popular open source project after OpenStack
 Similar challenges to virtualization monitoring – ephemeral
lifecycle and rapidly scaling sets of containers, sprawl, noisy
neighbors, etc.
 Docker Engine exposes APIs for container metadata, lifecycle
events, and KPIs

Docker Monitoring Solution Elements
 Collect key performance metrics
– CPU and memory usage; network rx/tx rates; count of total and
running containers
 Dashboards displaying the performance and health of
containers, container engine, Docker daemons etc.

Nutanix

Nutanix
 Converged storage and compute
 Highly distributed, shared nothing software
 High performance commodity hardware
 Massive and linear scale-out architecture
Google-like infrastructure for the enterprise

Nutanix Overview
 Hyperconverged infrastructure; server-SAN hybrid inspired by
the Google File System
 Fastest growing infrastructure technology of the last decade
 Focused on Tier 1 storage for virtualized server clusters
 Software-defined appliance that integrates compute and
storage resources
 Scale out technology using commodity hardware with DAS
storage

Nutanix Monitoring Solution Elements
 Auto discover components
 Dashboard displaying
performance and health of
components
 Collect key performance
metrics
– Clusters
– Containers
– Controller VMs
– Storage pools
– Nodes
– Disks
