8 OPENSTACK A PREFERRED PLATFORM FOR PRIVATE CLOUD Flexible and Modular: Choice of deployment location Use for single-tenant, multi-tenant or hybrid environments Independent services and a large number of configuration options enable you to implement your cloud based on your needs Open and Affordable: Avoid vendor lock-in, automate and use standard APIs to manage multiple clouds Complete transparency into the code base and roadmap Lower costs by using commodity gear and avoiding expensive software licensing fees Global Community: Over 29,000 members, 531 supporting companies, 172 countries and 1,792 active contributors OpenStack is an open source cloud platform that has become a compatibility standard for the private cloud market. - Forrester, 2015 RACKSPACE HOSTING 8

9 LEVERAGING OPENSTACK UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME CHALLENGES Heterogeneous Compute Environment Need Global Collaboration Persistent Utilization Deploying and Supporting at Scale The Center for Research Computing at University of Notre Dame is an innovative and multidisciplinary research environment that supports collaboration to facilitate discoveries in science and engineering, the arts, humanities and social sciences, through advanced computation, data analysis and other digital research tools.

10 LEVERAGING OPENSTACK UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME SOLUTION OpenStack Private Cloud! Fixed Cost, Flexible Options! Ability to add commodity nodes to scale with minimal disruptions! For scientists to collaborate at Notre Dame and at universities around the world, we have open languages we all speak. Sharing that common language in a computing sense means having a common API like what OpenStack provides. Paul R. Brenner, Associate Director, Center for Research Computing at the University of Notre Dame! RACKSPACE HOSTING 10

11 LEVERAGING OPENSTACK - CERN CHALLENGES Need for a Common Platform! Massive amounts of data! Scaling for Future Needs! Limited Head Count! Federated Identity! CERN is the European Organization for Nuclear Research Birthplace of the World Wide Web Particle accelerators and other infrastructure for high energy physics (HEP) research. Home of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) Worldwide community 21 member states (+ 2 incoming members) Observers: Turkey, Russia, Japan, USA, India About 2300 staff > users (about on-site) Budget (2014) ~1000 MCHF RACKSPACE HOSTING 11

12 LEVERAGING OPENSTACK - CERN TIER-0 (CERN): data recording, reconstruction and distribution" TIER-1: permanent storage, re-processing, " analysis" TIER-2: Simulation," end-user analysis" nearly 170 sites, 40 countries" ~ cores" 500 PB of storage" > 2 million jobs/day" Gb links" RACKSPACE HOSTING 12

13 LEVERAGING OPENSTACK - CERN SOLUTION OpenStack Private Cloud(s)! Federated Identity! Operational Ubiquity! OpenStack Community! 4 OpenStack clouds at CERN Largest is ~120,000 cores in ~5,000 servers 3 other instances with 45,000 cores total 1,100 active users Running OpenStack Juno 3PB Ceph block storage for attached volumes With our OpenStack cloud, we ve been able to offer physicists the resources they need to analyze and model data from the LHC [Large Hadron Collider].

14 OPENSTACK HYBRID AND FEDERATION CHALLENGES Central Identity Source! Capacity Demand Management! Resource Sharing Elasticity! Balancing Cost vs Need!!!!! Mission-critical applications are more likely to be deployed on a hosted private cloud than on a multitenant IaaS platform as mainstream buyers prioritize security, customization, and performance over low cost.! Research Vendor Window, April 2015! RACKSPACE HOSTING 14

15 SOLUTION On-Prem OpenStack Private Cloud(s) Public Cloud Connection Intelligent Workload Scheduling Public and Private Clouds Central Identity Source (ie, In-Common)! Capacity Demand Management! Resource Sharing! Cost vs Need! RACKSPACE HOSTING 15
