Agenda

Cloud is Transformational

1. Cloud is a new compute platform (e.g., Netflix, Zynga…)

2. Compute elasticity is attractive to buyers…

3. … Especially with a utility business model

4. Cloud transforms CapEx model on its head

5. Virtualization is a force multiplier

6. SOA principles still apply, but at scale

7. Programming models are still being defined

8. Utility consumption for storage is here to stay

9. With preparation, just-in-time DR is possible

10. Cloud extends the enterprise; governance is critical

Netflix – Experiencing Hyper Growth

Key Netflix Characteristics

All web apps, all virtual• 3-tier web apps• All open source based• Virtualized on Xen (NOT VMware)

Built-in availability• 4 9’s at SERVICE level• No PLANNED or UNPLANNED outages• DR is a subset of availability

~100% EC2-based• AMI, ASG, S3, EBS, RDB, SDB, SQS, SNS, EMR, ELB, EIP…• Internally developed tools (“Netflix Application Console”)• IT is really service development + service operations• Significant focus on capacity planning

Agenda

Security Where is my data? How safe is my data? Am I compliant in the cloud?Legal issues How does licensing work?Management How easily can I switch providers? Will my application run better in the cloud? How to manage the cloud/integrate with the cloud? Does cloud hardware matter?Performance Are there service levels on performance or just availability?Other Will I really save money? How to get data back in the event of a disaster? Are there any standards in the cloud?

Agenda

“It’s difficult to make predictions, especially about the future.”

What you see today is just the tip of the iceberg

1. The cloud of the future is an ecosystem

New multi-vendor use cases available in

the cloud eg. business continuity

Full range of IT Service Management

abilities required to run infrastructure and

services

Open standards for ITSM and Security,

essential for interoperability and to lower

switching costs
