Leadership in physical provisioning, with MAAS

● Cloud thinking encourages better practices for bare-metal deployments

● Hyperscale deployments of big-data workloads or IaaS

can consume thousands of machines

● With MAAS, the same principles used in the cloud can be applied on bare-metal

● MAAS provides a physical management layer that can be used as a back-end for Juju

Ubuntu as a guest to clouds

13 Presentation by Mark Baker & Nick Barcet Ubuntu Cloud - 12.04 LTS

Why Ubuntu is the #1 OS on public clouds

● Free to use, free to scale

● Optional support available

● Lean, fast, and efficient

● Innovative components

- Cloud-init

- Local cloud mirrors- Specifically tuned images for cloud providers- Local image kernels

...

● Support for the latest cloud workloads

● Predictable release cycle

● A focus since 2008

“...Ubuntu is by far the best option for running fully virtualised infrastructure in the public cloud... it offers great native support for Amazon EC2 and other cloud

platforms, as well as true computing elasticity with no licensing costs whatsoever.”

James Loope, Head of Operations, Janrain

15 Presentation by Mark Baker & Nick Barcet Ubuntu Cloud - 12.04 LTS

● Each cloud is different

● Ubuntu always performs consistently

● Optimal update mechanism

● Regular, predictable, and notified updates of images

● Certified cloud experience

Optimized for each cloud

16 Presentation by Mark Baker & Nick Barcet Ubuntu Cloud - 12.04 LTS

Cut the complexity with cloud-init

● Multiplication of images causes maintenance nightmare

● Image Sprawling is one of the

induced cost of virtualization

● Prevents agile deployments

● Cloud-init allows specialization of instance at launch time

● Base all your workloads on the

same base image

● Switch base images and all your workloads get updated to the latest Ubuntu

● Support for cloud-init is one of our

requirements for cloud certification

17 Presentation by Mark Baker & Nick Barcet Ubuntu Cloud - 12.04 LTS

Compliance, audit, assurance, support

● Enjoy the same level of support on cloud as on traditional hardware

● Pay by the hour*, instance, or as a scalable pack

● Ubuntu Advantage Cloud Guest includes:- Compliance, management and audit from Landscape

- Multi cloud management with Cloud Deck- Basic, standard or advanced support level- IP protection

- Optional PSE

● Consult with our experts

* on select public clouds

Cloud orchestration

● Provision multiple architectures – public or private cloud, bare metal

● Provision to multiple cloud infrastructures (Amazon, OpenStack, VMWare, Eucalyptus etc..)

● Has a vibrant community building best (and worst) practices

● Integrate with monitoring and billing

Distributed computing needs new tools that can deliver applications as services:

● Automated

● Hands-off

● Repeatable

● Cloud and HW independent

● API driven

21 Presentation by Mark Baker & Nick Barcet Ubuntu Cloud - 12.04 LTS

Juju delivers applications as interconnected services

● Easy

● Can deploy OpenStack and Cloudfoundry in minutes

● Available today

● Supported today

● Innovative technology that bring value by it's simplicity

● Uses 'Charms' to define services

● Deploys on servers, public/private cloud or combinations of all

Introducing Juju

22 Presentation by Mark Baker & Nick Barcet Ubuntu Cloud - 12.04 LTS

A little Charm goes a long way

● Define how services deploy, update, scale and relate to other services.

● Can work with existing configuration management tools such

as Puppet or Chef

● Designed to be very easy to re-use between teams and communities

● Available for over 75 different applications services from the online charm repository

● Facilitate rapid iteration of deployments to continually improve quality

and integration

Metal As A Service - MAAS

Teach your hardware the language of the cloud

● A new bare metal provisioning system to rapidly deploy Ubuntu across distributed systems.

● Scales services up or down as if they were in a cloud

● Add, commission, update and deploy physical servers at will

● Common protocols such as tftpboot and PXE

● Tightly integrated with Juju

● Provision systems in advance of Ubuntu Cloud being deployed.
