  • #7  if you look at what’s really impeding flow from development to operations to the customer,  it’s typically IT operations. Operations can never deliver environments upon demand. You have to wait months or quarters to get a test environment.  When that happens terrible things happen. People actually horde environments.  They invite people to their teams because the know they have  reputation for having a cluster of test environments so people end up testing on environments that are years old which doesn’t actually achieve the goal. One of the most powerful things that organizations can do is to enable development and testing to get environment they need  when they need it“ One of the best predictors of DevOps performance is that IT Operations can make available environments available on-demand to Development and Test, so that they can build and test the application in an environment that is synchronized with Production.

  • #12 “One of the most powerful things that organizations can do is to enable development and testing to get environment they need  when they need it“
  • #17 What happens now in the industry Typically the application development life cycle is something like this We have some production database with production applications running on top of the database And we have developers either customizing that application or writing new functionality for the application We need copies of that data to make sure our code runs correctly when it gets to production develop and We have teams of people, DBAs, sys admins, storage admins, etc making these copies It’s slow work to copy all this data It’s tedious work All the while we have developers and QA testers waiting for these copies
  • #19 Not enough resources Contention on shared environments Lack of enough environments Late stage bug discovery Faulty Data leading to bugs Subsets Synthetic data Old data Slow environment builds Delays Developers waiting QA slow and expensive
  • #20 Not enough resources Contention on shared environments Lack of enough environments Late stage bug discovery Faulty Data leading to bugs Subsets Synthetic data Old data Slow environment builds Delays Developers waiting QA slow and expensive
  • #21 Not sure if you’ve run into this but I have personally experience the following When I was talking to one group at Ebay, in that development group they Shared a single copy of the production database between the developers on that team. What this sharing of a single copy of production meant, is that whenever a Developer wanted to modified that database, they had to submit their changes to code Review and that code review took 1 to 2 weeks. I don’t know about you, but that kind of delay would stifle my motivation And I have direct experience with the kind of disgruntlement it can cause. When I was last a DBA, all schema changes went through me. It took me about half a day to process schema changes. That delay was too much so it was unilaterally decided by They developers to go to an EAV schema. Or entity attribute value schema Which mean that developers could add new fields without consulting me and without stepping on each others feat. It also mean that SQL code as unreadable and performance was atrocious. Besides creating developer frustration, sharing a database also makes refreshing the data difficult as it takes a while to refresh the full copy And it takes even longer to coordinate a time when everyone stops using the copy to make the refresh All this means is that the copy rarely gets refreshed and the data gets old and unreliable

  • #24  To circumvent the problems of sharing a single copy of production Many shops we talk to create subsets. One company we talked to , spends 50% of time copying databases have to subset because not enough storage subsetting process constantly needs fixing modification Now What happens when developers use subsets -- ****** -----
  • #26  We talked to Presbyterian Healthcare And they told us that they spend 96% of their QA cycle time building the QA environment And only 4% actually running the QA suite This happens for every QA suite meaning For every dollar spent on QA there was only 4 cents of actual QA value And that 96% cost is infrastructure time and overhead
  • #27  We talked to Presbyterian Healthcare And they told us that they spend 96% of their QA cycle time building the QA environment And only 4% actually running the QA suite This happens for every QA suite meaning For every dollar spent on QA there was only 4 cents of actual QA value And that 96% cost is infrastructure time and overhead

  • #31 Internet vs browser Automate or die – the revolution will be automated The worst enemy of companies today is thinking that they have the best processes that exist, that their IT organizations are using the latest and greatest technology and nothing better exists in the field. This mentality will be the undermining of many companies. http://www.kylehailey.com/automate-or-die-the-revolution-will-be-automated/ Data IS the constraint Business skeptics are saying to themselves that data processes are just a rounding error in most of their project timelines, and that they are sure their IT has developed processes to fix that. That’s the fundamental mistake. The very large and often hidden data tax lay in all the ways that we’ve optimized our software, data protection, and decision systems around the expectation that data is simply not virtual. The belief that there is no agility problem is part of the problem. http://www.kylehailey.com/data-is-the-constraint/
  • #32 Due to the constraints of building clone copy database environments one ends up in the “culture of no” Where developers stop asking for a copy of a production database because the answer is “no” If the developers need to debug an anomaly seen on production or if they need to write a custom module which requires a copy of production they know not to even ask and just give up.
  • #35 Fastest query is the query not run
  • #43 In the physical database world, 3 clones take up 3x the storage. In the virtual world 3 clones take up 1/3 the storage thanks to block sharing and compression
  • #44 Delphix radically changes this paradym Delphix is software that we provide as a virtual machine OVA file that you spin up on any commodity intel hardware You give us any storage Delphix maps it’s own proprietary file system on to the storage We have a web UI With the web UI you can point us to any database or data source such as Oracle, SQL Server, Sybase, Postgres, flatfiles etc At link time we take one full copy. We only do it once and never again We compress the data so If the data is 3TB on source it will be 1TB on Delphix From then and forever we just pull in the changed blocks With the changed blocks Delphix builds up a timeline of data versions The default window is 2 weeks but you can configure it to be 2 months or 2 years You can spin up a copy of the data down to the second at any point in time in the time window Now with a few clicks of a mouse and in a few minutes we can spin up copies on Developer machines, QA machines, UAT etc When we make copies there is no data being moved We just point the copies to data that already exists on Delphix There is no data on the target machines All the data is on Delphix Delphix looks like a NAS or NFS file server to the target machines We give them a read writeable point in time snapshot o the data We also track all the block changes on the virtual databases With the block change tracking on the virutal database we can do cool thigs links Roll them back, branch them, version them, share them, book mark the data All this is super simple to run Delphix can generally be be run by a junior DBA in quarter time The coolest thing, especially for DevOps process, is self server interface for developers and testers Where they can refresh data from production Roll back changes Bookmark and share data between dev and QA We can treat data the way we treat code
  • #48 For example Stubhub went from 5 copies of production in development to 120 Giving each developer their own copy
  • #49 Stubhub estimated a 20% reduction in bugs that made it to production
  • #51 Slow downs mean bottlenecks
  • #52  We talked to Presbyterian Healthcare And they told us that they spend 96% of their QA cycle time building the QA environment And only 4% actually running the QA suite This happens for every QA suite meaning For every dollar spent on QA there was only 4 cents of actual QA value And that 96% cost is infrastructure time and overhead
  • #53  We talked to Presbyterian Healthcare And they told us that they spend 96% of their QA cycle time building the QA environment And only 4% actually running the QA suite This happens for every QA suite meaning For every dollar spent on QA there was only 4 cents of actual QA value And that 96% cost is infrastructure time and overhead
  • #59  Physically independent but logically correlated Cloning multiple source databases at the same time can be a daunting task
  • #60 One example with our customers is Informatica Who had a project to integrate 6 databases into one central database The time of the project was estimated at 12 months With much of that coming from trying to orchestrating Getting copies of the 6 databases at the same point in time Like herding cats
  • #61 Walmart.com Informatical had a 12 month project to integrate 6 databases. After installing Delphix they did it in 6 months. I delivered this early I generated more revenue I freed up money and put it into innovation won an award with Ventana Research for this project
  • #63 Data masking should be a budgeted item in the enterprise IT spending. JP Morgan—joined by other banks and major companies—is going to spend a large amount on cybersecurity, yet still doesn’t feel like this sum is enough. Why is that? Traditional security is network security, AKA perimeter defense. Keeps the exterior protected. Enhanced by endpoint defense, which locks down phones/laptops in this era of bring your own device (BYOD) That being said, organizations are taking increasingly longer to detect network and system intrusions. According to a Trustwave survey, an external party informed the company of the breach in 80% of cases. That’s why it’s so important to protect the interior—protecting the data itself. As an analogy, perimeter security is like building castle walls—but protecting the interior means strong body armor for all of the knights you send out onto the open battlefield.
  • #87 Unshackle yourself from massive infrastructure drag and bureaucratic quagmires And put a jetpack on your IT organizations and application development projects Moving the data IS the big gorilla. Eliminating the data tax is crucial to the success of your company. And, if huge databases can be ready at target data centers in minutes, the rest of the excuses are flimsy. virtual data – virtualized data – uses a small footprint. A truly virtual data platform can deliver full size datasets cheaper than subsets. A truly virtual data platform can move the time or the location pointer on its data very rapidly, and can store any version that’s needed in a library at an unbelievably low cost. And, a truly virtual data platform can massively improve app quality by making it reliable and dead simple to return to a common baseline for one or many databases in a very short amount of time. Applications delivered with agile data can afford a lot more full size virtual copies, eliminating wait time and extra work caused by sharing, as well as side effects. With the cost of data falling so dramatically, business can radically increase their utilization of existing hardware and storage, delivering much more rapidly without any additional cost. An agile data platform presents data so rapidly and reliably that the data becomes commoditized – and servers that sit idle because it would just take too long to rebuild can now switch roles on demand.

  • #90 Now let’s look at Delphix Data as a Service With Delphix and Data as a Service, provisioning copies of data becomes push button functionality that finishes in minutes. How does this work? Delphix is provided as software Delphix software is a virtual machine. Delphix virtual machine manages storage and maps its own advanced specialized file system onto storage. Delphix an be used with any storage such as EMC, Netapp, Fujitsu, JBODs etc Once Delphix is installed and has been allocated storage it can be point at a data source. Once and only once, Delphix will pull in a full copy of the data source in and compress it. From then and forever Delphix just pulls in the changed data blocks and stores them creating a time line of data. From that timeline clone copies of production can be spun up in minutes on target machine. The clones can be made at any point in time from the time flow storage on Delphix down to the second. Each clone is for all intents and purposes a completely independent, full size, read/write copy of production Delphix can typically be managed by a single person in just a faction of their time Delphix provides a special developer centric self service interface for developers and QA where Developers can provision their own copies of data and have access to typical developer features such As rollback, bookmark, branching and refresh.
