A global leader in building and deploying Amazon Web Services (AWS)-based IT operations for the enterprise
Enterprise and AWS Cloud
• IT departments today are being asked to deploy cloud
infrastructures as quickly and cost effectively as
possible.
• Lack of in-house expertise to build and manage a
cloud deployment, let alone do it fast and on budget.
• Further complication are cloud deployments need to be
compliant with enterprise governance standards; and
proper cost allocation across business
units/departments.
Pitfalls
• Master Credentials
• Infrastructure Issues
• Waterfall Design
Pitfalls – Master Credentials
Share Master Credentials
• Full access to account
• Difficult to revoke access
• Risk to existing cloud
infrastructure
Solution: Create IAM Users AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM)
• Restrict user access
• Easy to revoke
• Limit ability to modify existing
resources
Pitfalls – Infrastructure Issues
Waste time troubleshooting
• Traditional resources difficult to
change
• Could not duplicate environments
• Scale achieved vertically
Solution: Dynamic Infrastructure
• Cloud resources can be disposable
• Easily snapshot environments
• Scale achieved horizontally
Pitfalls – Waterfall Design
Hesitate to start
• Old procurement process forced
organizations to plan extensively
before deploying a new
environment.
• Incorrectly over/under provisioning
would destroy schedules and
balloon budgets
Solution: Deploy a sandbox now
• Inverse is true on AWS, your test
environment will inform you about
provisioning for production
• Low cost and disposable
infrastructure makes it easy to find
the correct size
Best Practices
• IAM users
• Utilize AWS tags
• Automate via AWS CloudFormation
IAM users
• Start with a single IAM user with full admin rights
• Assign IAM to departments, projects and users
• Track and manage activity
Utilize AWS tags
• Use AWS tags everywhere
• Sprawl is inevitable, avoid it by tracking objects
back to department, projects and users
• Name tags intelligently
Automate via CloudFormation
• Use CloudFormation to create repeatable,
rubber stamped environments to achieve
uniformity and reduce redundant work efforts
• Use tools to manage approved environments – Sharepoint / Wiki
– Source control
– 2W Atlas Enterprise (details later)
Path Ahead • As 2013 comes to a close, Enterprise IT has to decide between
investing more in data centers or moving applications to cloud infrastructure.
• The information technology industry is undergoing a global transformation not seen since the personal computer changed business computing.
• Soon, the only cloud uncertainty enterprises will have left to overcome will be what to do with the money they save.
2W Atlas Enterprise Visualize the AWS Cloud
2W Atlas Enterprise
Visualize CloudFormation Templates – inventory of
deployed AWS cloud architectures that simplifies the
management of deployments, ensures proper IT
governance and audit capabilities of individual resources.
Build and Deploy Quickly – organize resources and
costs by business unit, project or end user. This ensures
that cloud architectures are compliant with IT policies
and standards, enables programmatic and repeatable
deployments, and facilitates quicker and lower cost
deployment of systems and applications.
Control and Allocate Costs – integration with 2nd
Watch’s leading cloud billing and management software,
2W Insight to simplify the costing of AWS resources by
providing running cost estimation prior to deployment,
resource allocations and charge backs by project,
business unit and/or user.
