Understanding Cloud We ve Come a Long Way Or Maybe Not In a recent survey of over 1,000 adult Americans: 51% believe stormy weather can interfere with cloud computing 54% think they hardly or never use the cloud, but 95% use online shopping, banking, file sharing 22% admit that they ve pretended to know what the cloud is 59% believe the workplace of the future will exist entirely in the cloud Source: Wakefield Research
Myth #1: Everything Will Go to the Public Cloud
Private Cloud: Fastest growing! % of company computing workload 52% 37% 35% 47% Now Two Years 12% 15% Non-Cloud Private Cloud Public Cloud Source: Computerworld Strategic Marketing Services, February-March 2014 Cloud Survey 6
Myth #2: You re Either Cloud or You re Not
Cloud Is an Evolution Traditional Silos Consolidated Private Cloud Public Cloud Hybrid Cloud Physical Dedicated Heterogeneous Virtual Shared Standardized Self-service Auto-scaling Metering & chargeback Specialized Shared Standardized Federation across public & private Interoperability Cloudbursting Start with consolidation Extend to private cloud Use public cloud where appropriate
Myth #3: Clouds Are One Size Fits All
Service Provider Service Provider Consumer Consumer Service Types: IaaS, PaaS, SaaS Different Users IT Professional Developer Business End User Customizations Customizations Customizations Application Application Platform IaaS Cloud PaaS Cloud SaaS Cloud Key Driver Consolidation Cost Savings App Development Focus New Capability Speed
Deployment Models: Private, Public, Hybrid, Managed Hybrid Cloud Private Cloud Public Cloud Managed Cloud
Myth #4: Virtualization = Cloud =
Virtualization vs. Cloud What s the Difference? Virtualization = Software that manipulates infrastructure, enabling one server or network act like many Cloud = Service-based computing model providing selfservice, elasticity, shared resources, and pay-as-you-go
Consolidation at PaaS and IaaS Layers Consolidate onto standard, shared and elastically scalable PaaS App App App App App App PaaS PREFERRED: Reduced operational cost, complexity and application development time Consolidate onto shared IaaS without standardization App App App IaaS Unchanged operational cost and complexity Reduced cost of hardware, power, cooling
Oracle Database 12c First Database Designed for Cloud Multiple Pluggable Databases in shared Container Database Isolation and multitenancy More efficient resource utilization More efficient administration manage many as one Easy to provision, move, clone, upgrade No application changes
Myth #5: Reducing Cost Is the Biggest Benefit of Cloud
Cloud Benefits Cost Savings Elasticity Speed

Myth #7: Cloud Will Lock You In
Cloud Is About Choice, Value and Flexibility It was important for us to work with a vendor that offered Whether it's onpremise, or whether it's a managed service, or whether it's software as a service, depending on our business circumstances, that answer changes. And it might change over time, as well. - Mark Schissel, SVP and CIO Herbalife
Complete Deployment Choice Deploy Anywhere Same Architecture On Premises (Private Cloud) Same Standards Same Products Oracle Cloud (Public Cloud ) Transparently move workloads between On premises and Public Cloud 23
Cloud and the Challenge of Lock-In Does Your Cloud Stack Up? Built on industry standards Applications available across public and private clouds and onpremises No application code changes when moving between clouds Open, robust APIs for easy data access Look for standards-based solutions, portability of apps, and data accessibility
Myth #8: Cloud Is All Pay-Per-Use
Cloud Pricing Varies Widely Sample Metric Pay Per Use (Variable Cost) Per compute hour Per GB stored Per API request Per GB bandwidth etc. Subscription (Fixed Cost) Per seat per month Pros/Cons More flexible, less predictable cost More predictable costs, less flexible Best For Temporary environments (e.g. Dev/Test) Significant workload fluctuations Long-lived applications Steady-state workloads Use Cases Dev/Test environments, retail websites, social apps Core business apps (ERP, CRM, HCM, etc.) Choose a pricing model that best fits your situation
Myth #9: Public Clouds Are Not Secure
Organizations Can Often Improve Security With Enterprise-Grade Public Clouds Do It Yourself Limited security resources & expertise Challenges meeting regulatory requirements Security audits & assessments not performed regularly, if at all Outdated hardware/software Oracle Cloud Dedicated team of cloud security experts Compliance with global regulatory & industry standards Regular third-party security audits & assessments Automatic hardware/software updates Not all cloud security is equal Understand your cloud provider s security practices
Myth #10: Choose Best of Breed Clouds for Every Need ERP IaaS (custom app) CRM HCM
Integration with Multiple Specialized Clouds Know the Potential Challenges Survey of 1,355 business managers: 54% experienced staff downtime due to integration problems with their cloud apps 52% missed business deadlines because of poor integration of cloud apps from multiple vendors 75% had innovation initiatives stunted by integration problems with cloud apps and related workflows 64% were unable to integrate their cloud apps with other enterprise apps Consider the challenges of integrating multiple clouds Source: Independent market research conducted by Dynamic Markets in May 2013; Cloud for Business Managers: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
