Private Cloud Computing Challenges

Learn from those that have built a cloud

“Private Cloud Matures, Hybrid Cloud Is Next” - Thomas J. Bittman, Gartner Analyst, September 6, 2013 Figure 2. Poll About Private Cloud Computing Challenges

Management & Operational Processes:

• Automated provisioning and best fit placement

• Workload balancing/resource optimization/Waste detection

• Root cause analysis/cloud support • Capacity management & planning • Lifecycle management Security: • RBAC • Quota enforcement • Approval workflow • Policies/rules Funding/Chargeback Model:

• Charge for CPU, Storage, Memory, Network or Instances • 4 Dimensions:

- Whole unit - Allocated

Service Description & Self-Service Interface:

• Single pane of glass view – drill down into “infrastructure” and “clouds”

• User can manage their own workloads and see-at-a-glance:

- Guest OS - Platform - VM state

- Policies (if applied) - Snapshots

- View inside workloads/what's installed
