Objectives of Cisco Cloud Onboarding

•  Assist Cloud Providers in accelerating

adoption of their cloud (IaaS) and

realize ROI quickly

•  Reduce the cost of onboarding/

migration by automating most pre and

post onboarding tasks

•  Provide a flexible framework that can

be customized easily to work with SP’s

operational processes

•  Provide complete set of solutions to

address onboarding of workloads with

varying migration complexities.

Data migra1on

In most cases, automation focus has been around workload and data migration (disjoint set of tools)

People time intensive

Tool / Automation

•  Even the “AS IS ” migration requires

lots of changes

•  VM conversion from one hypervisor format to

other

•  Changes to IP address

•  Addition/deletion of Network Interface cards

•  Resizing VM (CPU & Memory)

•  Uninstalling old tools/agents (e.g. Anti-virus,

backup, monitoring, etc.), Installing new agents

•  Making updates to billing system / dashboard,

etc.

•  Updating the Ops process at target cloud

(monitoring, backup, etc.)

•  . . . Most onboarding steps are carried out

manually which increases overall cost.

Increase Onboard Speed

•  Eliminate setup time

•  Removes need for scarce

skillsets

•  No change windows, rollbacks

or software installs

Mitigate Risk

•  Eliminates disruption to

source

•  Migrate behind the firewall

•  No need to install agents or

reboot servers

Reduced Cost

•  Eliminates upfront hw/sw

costs

•  Pay as you migrate

•  No setup fees

Cloud Migration Approaches

RiverMeadow Lift and Shift

Pros:

•  Agentless

•  Fully automated

•  Massively scalable

•  10x faster, 5x cheaper

•  Very low risk, Minimal overhead

•  Live migration

•  RiverMeadow moves the OS as is

Cons:

•  RiverMeadow moves the OS as is

Pros:

•  Well known, familiar process

Cons:

•  High failure rate due to OS mashup

•  Needs agents installed

•  Requires multiple change control outage(s)

•  May require server reboot

•  Up front costs

•  Limited cross architecture capabilities

Pros:

•  Application-centric

Cons:

•  Persistent, proprietary layer added to

operating stack

•  Tied to the PaaS provider - recurring cost

model

•  Backward compatibility risks

•  Support of new hypervisor versions

•  Mostly early stage companies

•  Applications rely on SDKs

•  Not all out of the box

Template-based data movers Application Containers
