This document discusses Red Hat's approach to building and managing private and hybrid clouds. It outlines Red Hat's cloud deployment models including public, private, and hybrid clouds. It then details Red Hat's cloud infrastructure solution including their cloud management platform, virtualization capabilities, OpenStack for large-scale cloud workloads, and how these pieces work together to provide an evolutionary path to the cloud. The document shares an example of Red Hat's solution with Telefonica that provided an integrated private cloud with self-provisioning and increased efficiency.

CLOUD DEPLOYMENT MODELS
Service Provider owned and
managed, accessed via the
web, pay for what you use.
Interoperable combination
of private and public cloud.
Privately owned and
managed with
restricted access
PRIVATE CLOUDPRIVATE CLOUD
HYBRID CLOUD
PUBLIC CLOUD

BUSINESS AND
INFRASTRUCTURE PRIORITIES
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
Lines of Business want:
Rapidly create and update applications
IT to act as a service, not a bottleneck
Turning to public cloud IaaS when infrastructure can't meet needs
Infrastructure team priorities:
Meet demands of business users faster
Attain governance over entire infrastructure
Gain insight into utilization
Considering hybrid IaaS cloud to achieve these results

OPEN, FLEXIBLE ARCHITECTURES
ESSENTIAL FOR SUCCESS
TRADITIONAL WORKLOADS
Typically resides on a single, large VM
Cannot tolerate any downtime
Need $$ enterprise virtualization tools
Application scales up, not out
CLOUD WORKLOADS
Workload resides on multiple VMs
Tolerates VM failure
Fault tolerance often built into workload
Application scales out, not up

CLOUD BROKERING CONTROLLING
WHERE REQUESTS GET MET
Requests
What policies affect placement?
Which options offer least cost?
Where do I have available capacity?

ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS REDUCING
MEAN TIME TO RESOLUTION
Drift Analysis
Compare to parent/host
Compare to earlier time
Quickly find similar VMs across
the landscape KEY
Genealogy what is the worst
case scenario, know if the
problem will expand beyond
When VM compared to
template, quickly see issue
was caused by recently
increased memory

GOVERNANCE & SECURITY
Sample Rule: Every Windows VM must have McAfee v2.0 installed

Infrastructure
CLOUDFORMS
Users only see conforming VMs/Workloads
Non-conforming VMs preventing from running
Policy breach notifications sent automatically
Tagging certain items allows one to apply policies to only tagged items
