Similar to Virtualisation with service management as enabler for cloud computing - Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Cloud forum (20)
Let‘s jumpt straight into the definition of cloud computing. Talking about definition of cloud computing – recall the example from the video and think about IT environment that could be delivered in this way: Cloud computing is a new delivery and consuption model inspired by the Internet. You have some set of services available within the cloud, that are made availe to service consumers through a service catalog. Consumers can acces the services on demand through the network, regardles their location. Cloud takes care about resource elasticity and also provides simple billing environment, based on service usage, similar to the example with the electricity company. In a way this is the convergence of many past trends like grid computing and utiliy computing.

The scale and flexibility enabled by virtual system pools can provide essential building blocks for a cloud computing architecture. In most data centers today there is a plethora of systems with varying degrees of standardization and best practices. In order to simplify the management and create a repeatable, predictable infrastructure, you need to create standard building blocks. you can also start this process by applying best practice patterns to the systems that you already have. These patterns define the best practice virtualization configurations depending on the systems and the way you want to use them. The next step is to capture and catalog the images (operating systems, middleware, and software) used in the datacenter and standardize on those building blocks as well thru virtual appliance definition. This will result in simplified deployments and image management. -- Good image management is key to a successful virtualization environment. Using VMControl Image Management, virtual machine images are stored in an image library and can be captured and cloned. Virtual runtime requirements can be customized for the images, and virtual appliances simply deployed. The third step involves pooling your standardized virtual configurations into ensembles where you can manage many systems as if they were one. Multiple physical and virtual systems managed as a single entity form a virtual system pool. The manager of the pool automates workload placement and aggregates monitoring and event management from the physical and virtual resources in the pool. This logically flows into workload management according to the service level agreements defined by the data center. Service Management offerings, such as Tivoli Service Automation Management (TSAM) will help you define and manage those services in tight integration with Systems Director and VMControl. Virtual system pools are ideal building blocks for a cloud computing architecture. Providing flexible and scalable resources in a service management deployment. Pools allow for unique levels of elastic scaling, especially when coupled with the capabilities of scale up servers, such as our IBM Power Systems.
Extending the service management capabilities of TivSAM, IBM Service Delivery Manager also integrates essential service management capabilities for a deployed service. Leveraging existing Tivoli service management capabilities, IBM Service Delivery Manager provides resource monitoring, cost management, energy management, and availability for production services in a cloud computing model. In IBM Service Delivery Manager, these capabilities are pre-integrated and deployed as a set of virtual images in your data center. Leveraging this virtual image model and pre-integration of capabilities, IBM Service Delivery Manager allows IT to rapidly create a cloud computing model. Performance monitoring to assure service quality; Energy management to track and optimize operational costs Usage & accounting for tracking and chargeback
Cloudburst is simply a set of 4 pre-integrated configurations out of the many custom options. Chose cloudburst for speed of deployment over choice of up-front customisation.
Speaker Notes: Why IBM (competitive kill points) IBM is the only vendor with the most scalable, mature and integrated cloud service management offering VMware has an un-integrated, immature, incomplete cloud service management stack built on multiple recent acquisitions HP lacks service catalog and usage monitoring BMC lacks usage metering and security capabilities -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are a lot of vendors claiming they can provision a cloud….. IBM can stand up a cloud faster than anyone else AND manage what’s in the cloud -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Functional capabilities include: API driven service catalog for automated provisioning of compute network and storage Secure multi-tenancy and client isolation Integrated hardware and software monitoring and usage metering High availability platform - from hardware through the software stack IBM differentiators compared to Vblock (Cisco, EMC, VMware) • Visibility across applications, data and infrastructure • Understand user service experience • Network infrastructure and resources • Map service dependencies to infrastructure • Service management control aligned to business priorities • Business-aligned dashboards • Security and compliance solutions • Fulfill service requests • Provide usage for billing/chargeback • Process and technology automation across business services • Automate service operations • Align assets and resources to business priorities IBM. Scale you can Trust. IBM is announcing today the world's first MVM-class cloud for service providers (more than 1 Million VMs running concurrently) • Proof Point: We can deliver up to 7000-8000 VMs per rack today, scaling to 20-30,000 VMs per rack over the next few years as the processor core/thread density (as well as network/storage capability) increases. Only IBM provides a platform that scales to the provision of tens of thousands of virtualized services per hour • Proof Point: We are building in our unique distributed and HPC expertise to the cloud platform. For example in HPC, although not directly analogous, we can deliver up to 1000 OS imagines a minute. Only IBM provides a platform with predictive analytics that can provision new services in less than a minute • Proof Point: We can already demonstrate provisioning in 10-20 seconds in the lab Only IBM has the pedigree to provide a cloud platform that has mainframe-class resilience and availability Only IBM provides true integration of compute, networking, storage, system s/w along with proven service management - and still allows you choice of hypervisor IBM Integrated Service Management for Cloud Service Provider Platform • The only complete solution for managing virtualized compute, storage and network resources in a secure multi-customer, highly-scalable, carrier-grade environment • Delivers and manages a secure, highly scalable, highly available ecosystem for your services and applications with SLA management, storage, and backup and restore capabilities IBM hardware platform differentiators • Component redundancy provides higher availability for apps • Platform management integrates seamlessly with service management • Choice of hw platform to serve different workload needs
Why IBM (competitive kill points) Competitors lock customers into their cloud infrastructure and do not provide open APIs or support for a broad range of hypervisors ( vSphere, KVM, pVM and zVM) BMC’s products are integrated through proprietary APIs that cannot be leveraged by the customer VMware does not provide API support for all functions and only support their vSphere hypervisor HP has no hybrid cloud integration points that can be leveraged by service providers --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Our approach focuses on three key areas: Optimizing the infrastructure to deliver workloads that drive better performance, scalability and efficiency. Workloads have unique characteristics that run more efficiently when matched with the right computing resources. These efficiencies are becoming critical to achieving the service quality and business outcomes required by the business. It’s also about service management – only IBM offers integrated service management across the business and IT architecture , development, and operations. The growing complexity of IT systems demands that sprawling processes become standardized services that are efficient, secure and easy to access. It’s important for businesses to have the visibility, control and automation needed to adapt quickly to changing business requirements and to accelerate the delivery of high quality services. We also know that to meet the changing needs of businesses, we need to offer our clients choice – the choice and flexibility found with our delivery options . So, for example, we can provide project-based services, managed services, strategic outsourcing and cloud computing. We look at options like cloud and workload optimized systems as new consumption and delivery models that helps optimize workloads for greater efficiency, productivity and control. A workload optimized approach : Optimizing the infrastructure around workloads for better performance, scalability and efficiency. Integrated Service management – that provides visibility, control and automation across all IT and business assets. Flexible delivery choices: – traditional ones like managed services, strategic outsourcing and new options like cloud and Smart Business offerings that are optimized around various workloads.
