Key Info - Overview of cloud architecture and design. Know your applications, the infrastructure design of your cloud provider, and whether or not they are compatible. Keep in mind how you will on-board and access your applications once they are in the cloud.

Editor's Notes
Title, previous experience, # of years
Architecture, Scalability, Security
Everything going to the cloud
Define: cloud from mainframe to cloud, full circle
All the datacenters are going away
Cloud isnt in the sky, its in the datacenter
Anybody remember ASP from 10 years ago?
Infrastructure, Software, Platform, Database, Backup, DR, all things as a service
-=When, Why, and Where=-
Public: Public applications (SaaS provider, Netflix, Facebook), Massive Scale, no specific location of data (inexpensive, easy to scale)
Private: Corporate use, tight controls, all data in-house (expensive, difficult to scale) HOSTED TOO!
Hybrid: Mix of both, can bridge the gap. Requires good network between public and private clouds though
-=When & Why=-
Horizontal: PHP, Ruby, NoSQL (Mongo, Casandra, Big Data)
Vertical: Oracle, Microsoft SQL, Traditional applications
What is your app built for?
Not all applications gain performance with scale
Noisy neighbors 30%+ dip in performance
How does your application perform in a cloud
Flash: performance revolution
Disk = 180 IOPS ($1.45/IO)
Flash = $0.10-$0.30/IO (Over 150 disks needed for the same performance)
Flash vs. SSD
If the cloud is everywhere, how do you connect to it?
What applications are going to the cloud?
How do you use them?
Remote desktop/VDI, browser, thin client?
What is fault tolerance? Its how we go from this to this
Things break, how do we handle failure?
Not all failures are service affecting.
In the past, we had to duplicate all of our equipment (EXPENSIVE)
3 Steps = Deploy, Manage, Grow
Most clouds focus on deployment (virtualization)
How does your cloud grow with you?
How do your applications need to grow?
Who can tell me what this slide is about?
Hadoop, Netezza, NoSQL, Map Reduce
Big data is all about ANALYTICS
Big data is usually HORIZONTAL (Google, Map Reduce, Workers)
Born for cloud
Know your cloud provider
Where is your data stored? (wide spread or centralized)
Does it make sense to use more than one provider?
What is encryption?
Do you have sensitive customer information?
Encryption is a MUST in the public cloud
PCI, HIPAA, SAS 70, SSAE 16, SOX
How does moving to the cloud affect compliance for you?
