12 March 2015 Hybrid Cloud: New Paradigm for the Digital Enterprise Debra Schleicher: Dimension Data Cloud Solutions
New directions for cloud Not all business processes are created equal Competitive differentiation requiring proprietary solutions Others are routine functions Outsource the routine to make time for and give attention to the game changers big SaaS winners Large capital investments Replaced with pay as you go economics Variable cost for flexibility and scalability New marketing and sales strategies emerging Smart phones, geospatial technologies, sensor based technologies, real time analytics Self service models for customers anything, anytime, anywhere Drive revenue vs reduce expenses 2

Standard Industry Definition: Hybrid cloud computing is the coordinated use of cloud services across public, private and community service providers, or between internal and external cloud services. Like a cloud computing service, a hybrid cloud computing service is Scalable Has elastic IT-enabled capabilities and self-service interfaces Delivered as a shared service to customers using Internet technologies
Hybrid cloud vs Hybrid IT Virtually all enterprises have an ambition to augment internal IT systems with those of cloud services for various reasons Capacity Financial optimization Improved Service quality Hybrid cloud enhances the reach and value of IT services Hybrid cloud implies significant integration or coordination between the internal and external environments at the data, process, management or security layers Integration between private and public clouds whether private is on or off premises 5
Common hybrid cloud use cases Availability / disaster recovery (DR) / recovery Cloud service composition Creating a solution with a portion running on internal systems and another delivered from the external cloud environment Development / test / release Coordinating and automating development, testing and release to production across private, public and community clouds. Cloudbursting Dynamically scaling out an application from an internal, private cloud platform to an external public cloud service 6
What s the adoption rate for hybrid cloud? 20% Analysts suggest that no more than 20% of large enterprises have implemented hybrid cloud computing beyond simple integration of applications or services 10-15% This declines to 10-15% for mid size enterprises which mostly are implementing the availability/disaster recovery use case 7
Resiliency and Recovery: Value to the Enterprise This declines to 10% to 15% for midsize enterprises, which mostly are implementing the availability/disaster recovery use case cloud management platforms (CMPs) to drive policy-based placement and management of services internally or externally 10-15% A fairly common use case is in the high availability (HA)/DR arena where data is synchronized from private to public or public to private for resiliency or recovery 8
Cloud management platforms New capabilities are emerging Some are proprietary vendor lock in could be a problem going forward Common characteristics: Orchestration Automation for moving/migrating workloads from one cloud to another Governance UI for monitoring a unified cloud platform Cloud management platforms: required to drive policy-based placement and management of services internally or externally. 9
How easy is hybrid cloud Hybrid cloud computing is a fairly immature area with significant complexity in setting it up in operational form Early implementations are typically between private and public clouds, and not often between two different public cloud providers Cisco Intercloud announcement is a multi-provider hybrid cloud environment 10
Cisco Intercloud: ambitious strategy Envisions a network of clouds Cisco provides a shared resource cloud for Intercloud Fabric users Cisco combines Cisco UCS servers, UCS Director software with new Intercloud Fabric By example, the Dimension Data Public and Private Clouds are enabled to the Cisco Intercloud Fabric Intercloud Fabric is a cloud management platform that provides seamless integration of clouds calling the APIs Cisco ambition: enable clients to manage the Data tsunami created by the Internet of Things 11
Managing hybrid cloud Cloud Management Platforms Specific services supplied that enable movement and management across internal and external cloud resources Unfortunately there are no standard industry approaches to hybrid cloud 12

Practical Guidance Establish security, management and governance models to coordinate the use of external services with internal applications and services Establish guidelines and standards for how public and private clouds will combine with internal systems to form a hybrid environment Select a hybrid cloud partner With experience enabling next generation IT With consulting services to plan and implement application migration and management 15
