– Sets the Stage for Private/Hybrid Cloud

Why Cloud Computing• The next paradigm

• Significant Benefits

– Shift Capex to Opex– Increase Agility– IT at the Speed of Business

Gartner/Dataquest : Sizing the Cloud; Understanding the Opportunities in Cloud Services ( March 2009, pub G00166525 )

What is Public Cloud?Attributes:

• Self Provisioned

• Elastic

• Pay as you Go

• Uses Their Stuff

Private Cloud Computing is Real

• I believe that enterprises will spend more money building private cloud computing services over the next three years than buying services from cloud computing providers

– Thomas Brittman, Gartner, 2/5/2009, Private Cloud Computing is Real – Get Over it

What is Hybrid Cloud

Attributes:

• Pay as you Go

• Uses Your Stuff and Their Stuff

Why Private/Hybrid Cloud?• Infrastructure Utilization Too Low

– Need better Infrastructure sharing

• Provisioning infrastructure for Apps takes too long– IT Business Users need Self Service – and a more

flexible responsive IT provider

• Maintenance Costs too High– SW Maint costs same on physical/virtual Servers

• Address important obstacles to Public Cloud– Security, Latency, Lock-in, Compliance

Today’s Webinar Topics

• Whats and whys of cloud computing

• Role of server-side App virtualization

• Deploying server-side application virtualization in your private cloud

AppZero – Server-side App Virtualization• Enables 100% mobility for Server Apps to and from

your cloud, their cloud, your Hybrid Cloud– Your Server Apps , no re-coding– Zero Lock-in – easily change providers, or use more than one

• Enables a Simple 1-2-3 process– Create virtualized app from installed App– Move into *Cloud - Run

• Based on the AppZero Virtual Application Appliance technology….

What is a VAA?

VAA

A Virtual Application Appliance ( VAA ) is a collection of files

that includes Everything the App needs … but with

Two approaches to creating a VAA base on snapshot capture and template approach:

1. Add the App ( Install )

2. Subtract the OS …….( Scoop & Move )

Private Cloud

Key considerations for the Cloud• No Cloud Lock-in

– Selection Criteria: Cost, SLA, Security, Latency– IT should be prepared for change

• Apps built for the Data Center– 3-tier apps need no re-architecting

• No Cloud “API”– Portability is at the App level not VM

• No code changes– Scoop & Move is simple– Works with existing Management infrastructure

VAAs Cloud benefits• Applications and workloads are:

– Contained as one unit reducing provision and configuration errors– Isolation removes conflicts between apps increasing app density– Scalable by provisioning up and down form the network increasing agility– Movable from data center to cloud to cloud to data center -No cloud lock-in– Cloud ready

• “Gold application image” and shared VAAs– Fast way to prepare apps for the cloud – Only changed VAAs need to be synchronized agile cloud life-cycle – App runtimes/configs are consistent and automatable enhancing compliance– No changes to application, management tools leveraging existing frameworks

• The pay off– Fastest way to move existing apps to any cloud speed– Fastest way to replicate apps and keep them synchronized low SW TCO– Fast way to move apps out of the cloud to data center flexibility– Speed of provisioning makes for ultimate flexibility competitive advantage

What’s the role of Server-Side App Virtualization in *Cloud?

Server-Side App Virtualization can be utilized for Your Apps in IaaS Clouds, can be used to construct a PaaS cloud, or used by MSP/ISV to create multi-tenant Saas Offerings.

AppZero VAA SummaryWith AppZero• 100% mobility

• Physical, Virtual, Datacenter, Cloud

• 80% reduction in Software TCO• speeds time to service business needs

• 66% Increase in consolidation ratios• reduce server, image, and license sprawl
