The Role of Nutanix in the

Public /Private / Hybrid

Cloud Spectrum

Chris Howard

Vice President, Nutanix Federal Phil Ditzel

Public Cloud

Let’s start with the definition

NIST’s  Defini-on:  

 

“A  model  for  enabling  ubiquitous,  convenient,  on-­‐demand  access  to  a  shared  pool  

of  configurable  compu;ng  resources  (networks,  servers,  storage,  applica;ons,  and  

services)  that  can  be  rapidly  provisioned  and  released  with  minimal  management  

effort  or  service  provider  interac;on.”

Public Cloud

Not a Point…a Spectrum

So  the  Public  Cloud  offers  us  these  features:  

•  Self-­‐service  

•  Access  from  a  broader  geography  

•  U;lity  Compu;ng  

•  Scale  or  Reduce  on  demand  (“Elas;city”)  

•  Consump;on-­‐based  billing  

•  Share/bill  IT  costs  based  on  u;liza;on  

•  Resource  Pooling  

•  DR/COOP…no  longer  ;ed  to  a  ‘primary’  datacenter  

•  Convenience  

•  Minimal  management  

•  Cost  savings…in  some  cases?  

…and  Public  Cloud  eliminates  these  datacenter  challenges:  

•  Floor  &  Rack  Space  

•  Power  for  IT  infrastructure  

•  Cooling  for  IT  infrastructure  

•  Costs  of  IT  infrastructure  

•  Performance  Concerns  

•  Complexity  of  IT  infrastructure  

•  Poli;cs  

•  Many  IT  “rice  bowls”  go  away  

•  Specula;on  and  Overprovisioning  

•  Guessing  at  where  your  requirement  will   be  in  18  months  

•  “Rounding  up”  to  be  on  the  safe  side

…but  in  most  cases  today,  par@cularly  within  the  federal  government,  the  following   concerns  trump  all  offered  features  or  eliminated  challenges:

Public Cloud

Not a Point…a Spectrum

If  the  public  cloud  leaves  you  with  concern  about  data  security  or  availability,  it  is   simply  not  an  op@on,  no  maDer  its  benefits.  

 

Enter…the  Private  Cloud

Enter…The Private Cloud

PUBLIC  CLOUD  SPECTRUM  

PRIVATE  CLOUD  SPECTRUM  

YOUR  FIREWALL  (OR  IA  COMFORT)  

The  Private  Cloud  is  merely  an  aDempt  at  Public  Cloud  characteris@cs,  in  a  more   comfortable  IA  spot  

Just  as  with  the  Public  Cloud,  there  is  a  Private  Cloud  Spectrum    

But  where  Public  Cloud  adds  features  and  eliminates    datacenter  challenges,  Private  Cloud   adds  features  but  –  without  focus  -­‐-­‐  retains  (or  adds)  datacenter  challenges.

So  how  does  one  move  their  Private  Cloud  along  the  Spectrum?   First:    Enable  Cloud  Features  

•  Self-­‐Service  

•  Consump@on-­‐based  billing    

•  Broad  network  access  

•  Resource  Pooling  

•  Dynamic  Elas@city  

•  Convenience  

•  Minimal  Management  

Some  cloud  characteris-cs   All  cloud  characteris-cs  

Second:    Eliminate  Datacenter  Challenges  

•  Minimize  Rackspace  requirements  

•  Minimize  Power  requirements  

•  Minimize  Cooling  requirements  

•  Minimize  Infrastructure  Spend  

•  Pay  as  you  go,  not  in  advance!  

•  Maximize  performance  per  Rack-­‐U  

•  Minimize  poli@cs  and  complexity  

•  By  elimina@ng  layers

Wait!    This  makes  no  sense.

Not  so…not  anymore.  

Enterprise  Virtualiza@on  no  longer  requires  SANs,  Servers,  and  Storage  Switch  Fabric   “Web-­‐scale  IT”  is  changing  datacenters  

  Gartner  introduced  the  term  in  May  2013:    

“What  is  web-­‐scale  IT?    It’s  our  effort  to  describe  all  of  the  things  happening  at  large  cloud  services   firms  such  as  Google,  Amazon,  Rackspace,  NeWlix,  Facebook,  etc.,  that  enables  them  to  achieve  

extreme  levels  of  service  delivery  as  compared  to  many  of  their  enterprise  counterparts.”

More  from  Gartner  on  Web-­‐scale  IT:    hJp://blogs.gartner.com/cameron_haight/2013/08/21/all-­‐in-­‐with-­‐web-­‐scale-­‐it/  

Gartner’s  Cameron  Haight,  August  2013:    

“I’ve  seen  the  impact  of  conven-onal  wisdom  on  IT  (and  especially  on  IT  opera-ons  which  is  my  direct   area  of  coverage)  and  frankly  it  isn’t  delivering.  Maturity  levels  are  ‘stuck’  and  costs,  even  with  the   advent  of  cloud,  remain  too  high.”  

 

“So  what’s  the  model  to  follow?  Look  to  the  large  cloud  services  providers  such  as  Google,  Facebook,   Amazon,  etc.    In  other  words,  it’s  not  the  cloud  per  se  that  will  save  enterprise  IT,  but  thinking  and   ac@ng  like  the  major  cloud  providers  across  all  the  key  dimensions  of  IT  that  will.”

Not  everyone  can  move  100%  of  their  IT  to  the  Public  Cloud.    

Those  who  can’t,  s@ll  seek  Public  Cloud  aDributes  and  benefits.    They  build  Private  Clouds.  

 

Private  Clouds  are  not  a  ‘point’,  they  are  a  spectrum.  

 

Those  who  seek  to  have  Private  Clouds  that  are  most  like  Public  Clouds  need  to  know  that  datacenter   challenges  can  be  eliminated  as  part  of  the  move  to  Private  Cloud.  

 

3-­‐@er  architectures  (SANs,  Servers,  and  Storage  Fabric)  are  obsolete,  complex,  and  expensive.
