Cloud procurement best practices
April 9, 2015
• CSPs provide foundational services to build solutions/house workloads. • Accept different vendor approaches – CSP offerings are not apples to apples.• Understand different ways to buy SaaS v. IaaS/PaaS.
• Focus on application-level and performance-based requirements – not dictating specific methods, infrastructure or hardware. Ultimately, you are not buying a physical asset.
• Embrace on-demand, utility-like, OpEx model cloud pricing. Traditional IT pricing approaches can reduce or eliminate benefits of cloud.
• Accept different vendor pricing models – do not create single pricing model.
• Shared security/compliance model between the CSP and end user. • Leverage industry best practices on security and audit.
• View cloud as a commercial item and consider appropriate terms and conditions• A mechanism to incorporate CSP’s unique terms and conditions.• Leverage CSP’s commercial SLAs (uptime, durability, reliability, etc.)
• A model to obtain cloud services directly from CSP and/or an indirect model in which cloud services are procured through partners or reseller.
• Do not consider or treat CSPs as system integrators (SIs).

Vendor types and partner ecosystem
• Separate purchase of cloud infrastructure from the purchase of services and labor for planning, developing, and executing migrations and workloads. Services vs. infrastructure
AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofit Symposium Washington, DC I June 25-26, 2015
Separate infrastructure from services/labor
• Separate the purchase of infrastructure from services (planning, development, implementation, and maintenance)
• Results in maximum pricing efficiencies
AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofit Symposium Washington, DC I June 25-26, 2015
Government organizations should plan early
• Involve all key stakeholders at an early stage:– Procurement– Legal– Budget/finance– Security– IT– Business leadership
• Get comfortable with the cloud model
AWS Government, Education, and Nonprofit Symposium Washington, DC I June 25-26, 2015
Cloud procurement next steps• Understand the cloud model, security, and
how it is different from traditional IT• Understand working with partners/resellers • Understand cloud pricing and SLA constructs• Focus on requirements that are cloud-
specific – not traditional IT

NASA Cloud Acquisition Approach 15
A Single Vehicle for Agency-wide Access to AWS Services
• AWS ONLY, no integration services included in the procurement• AWS does not sell directly to government, only through resellers, integrators and partners• Using NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) contract• SOW required a high level of Agency control in the reseller relationship – reseller is a pass through with
no credentialed access to NASA AWS accounts (NASA owns all IP in account)• Contract supports “non specific ordering” and includes entire range of services that exist today and all
those that will exist in the future• NASA pays published prices• Reseller passes through all AWS price reductions• Clear provisions for end-of-contact administrative transfer of AWS account back to new reseller or NASA

The Process
NASA Cloud Acquisition Approach 18
• Cloud business office handles the incoming funds from customers, placement of funds on the contract and tracks the AWS consumption and customer billing
• Think of it as a rechargeable Starbucks card• Customer sends money (charges up their card!)• The resources they consume in AWS are tagged to them• When the monthly AWS bill arrives, customer “Starbucks card” is debited
and customer gets detailed documentation• When card balance gets low, customers “recharge” by sending more
money• Today processing manually; in process of evaluating tools to automate the
business management process and controls

Lessons Learned
NASA Cloud Acquisition Approach 19
• DO A PILOT!• Do iterations of small acquisitions through desired vehicles, mechanisms and
processes• You will find out quickly what works and doesn’t work and you can fix it in the next
iteration and try again• Might take several attempts; pilot technical integration, business processes, and
security approach in parallel• Use the Cloud Best Practices document issued by the Federal Procurement Officers
• Proper handling of the items addressed in this document help protect your Agency and your data in the event of compromises, at the relationship and/or contract end, and also in general operations
• Auditors will specifically be looking for MANY of the items that are addressed in that document
