18 5. Security

19 Fears Losing control Fear of change Contract lock-in Data security Dependence on connectivity

20 Migration to cloud Plan your journey in phases If you don t plan or if you try to do everything at once you will fail!

21 Overview of the Journey Plan your journey in steps: Certain parts of your infrastructure will naturally fit a cloud model Some applications and services can be cloud-enabled with a little re-work Others simply don t fit Assess Rationalise Virtualise Migrate Innovate

22 Stage 1. Assess Deep dive into the existing services How, where deployed? Consumed? Users? Categorise? Aspirational Ideas Assess Rationalise Virtualise Migrate Innovate

23 Stage 2. Rationalise Next we ll understand the reality of what can be achieved and how Design the platform Virtualize? Physical? Retain control? Design the migration strategy User experience? Risk? Define the business case Match requirements and budget Assess Rationalise Virtualise Migrate Innovate

24 Stage 3. Virtualise The core of any Cloud Infrastructure platform is a virtualization layer Helps to understand your real capacity requirements Licensing Assess Rationalise Virtualise Migrate Innovate

25 Stage 4. Migrate Moving your business services into your cloud infrastructure Migrate your live services Use strategy. Start from easy stuff. Inform users. Test the new platform How it s functioning? Success criteria? Optimise the user experience Connection methods Assess Rationalise Virtualise Migrate Innovate

26 Stage 5. Innovate Now that we have an elastic resources available, let s use it Time saved managing the traditional infrastructure can now be re-invested Test and development. New packages. New apps. Mobility. Assess Rationalise Virtualise Migrate Innovate

27 Reading cloud contracts Uptime guarantees SLA penalties Scale down I/O perfomance Suspension of service Disaster recovery

28 Concerns and challenges Cloud Clients Value for money Reliability Lock-in Accountability Trust Security Cloud Operators Operating cost Technology risk Financial risk Contract liability Reputation Security

29 Additional challenge How to compete with AWS?

30 It is difficult to keep the same pricing but You can connect cloud LAN with customers offcice LAN (1-10 Gbps) You can provide unique SLA (low latency, thousand of guaranteed IOPS, dedicated backup policy ) You speak the same language as Your customer does

31 Baltneta IaaS infrastructure Tier 3 DC 0.5 PB HDD 1300 cores 5 TB RAM and more than 50 IT administrators 2014 Q1

32 Pricing models Allocated resources Fixed budget projects Long term and high utilization ratio projects Pay as you grow Short term projects Test and disaster platforms Uncertain growth projects Live migration between pricing models!

33 What s next? SSD only storage platform
