  • The Cloud-Enabled Data Center
    A Revolutionary Technology Extending the Ultra-Broad Functionality of Ethernet White Paper May 2013 The Cloud-Enabled Data Center The Cloud-Enabled Data Center Introduction A growing number of organizations are adopting some form of cloud computing to meet the challenges of rapidly deploying their IT services and addressing their dynamic workload environments while maximizing their IT return on investments (ROIs). Cloud computing gives users the ability to access the IT resources faster than traditional and virtual servers. It also provides improved manageability and requires less maintenance. By deploying technology as a service, your users access only the resources they need for a specific task, which prevents you from incurring costs for computing resources not in use. In addition, developing a cloud-enabled data center can improve operational efficiencies while reducing operational expenses by 50%. Panduit, the leader in Unified Physical Infrastructure offerings, and IBM, a pioneer in delivering cloud computing solutions to clients, have joined forces to deliver optimized, custom and preconfigured solutions for the cloud- enabled data center. This white paper describes how network, storage, compute and operations are important factors to consider when deploying private and public cloud computing in the data center. Specifically, it examines integrated stack/pre- configured and custom cloud deployments. It also explains the importance of the physical infrastructure as the foundation in successful cloud deployment and maintenance. Finally, it showcases how IBM’s depth of experience in delivering systems and software for cloud solutions when combined with Panduit’s physical infrastructure expertise, provides a tremendous impact on room-level data center environmental and new-age topology.

  • Comparison of Availability Between Local and Cloud Storage Leviathan Security Group
    Comparison of Availability Between Local and Cloud Storage Leviathan Security Group limitless innovation. no compromise. Introduction The U.S. National Institute for Standards and Technology denes cloud computing as having ve essential characteristics: on-demand self- service for provisioning, network access, the use of virtual machines to provide servers, rapid elastic provisioning and release of servers, and metering capability on the service provided.1 This paper seeks to answer whether, from the perspective of availability of data, especially in the face of natural or manmade threats to data and access, cloud computing is able to provide a greater benet than local data storage. For the purposes of this discussion, local data storage will include arrangements where data is kept on business premises or in a nearby datacenter, such as a colocation facility or other rigidly-provisioned resource. We will rst examine the signicant dierentiator that cloud computing provides in this space, and then examine dierent scales of threats to availability to see whether local data storage or cloud data storage fares better against known historical threats. 2 The Cloud Dierentiator: Geographic Redundancy At its heart, cloud computing and cloud storage are exactly the same as computing and storage provided through a datacenter or SOHO server; the cloud is made of computers. The dierence between cloud- based storage and local storage is that using cloud-based storage allows replication between separate geographic regions. Indeed, the key feature of

ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. THE CLOUD V. DATA CENTER DECISION CLOUD V. DATA CENTER: KEY TRENDS FOR IT DECISION-MAKERS BY CHARLES MCLELLAN Cloud-based compute, networking and storage infrastructure, and cloud-native applications, are now firmly on the radar of IT managers—be they in startups, small businesses or large enterprises. So much so that, whereas a few years ago the question facing CIOs was “Which workloads should I move to the cloud?”, it’s now becoming “Which, if any, workloads should I keep on-premises?”. While most organisations will probably end up pursuing a hybrid cloud strategy, it’s worth examining this turnaround, and the reasons behind it. The general background, as ZDNet has explored in recent special features, is the competitive pressure for organisations to undergo a digital transformation based on cloud-native applications and methods such as DevOps, in pursuit of improved IT and organisational performance.

  • F5 Application Delivery Services in the Google Cloud
    OVERVIEW F5 APPLICATION DELIVERY SERVICES IN THE GOOGLE CLOUD Public cloud vendors offer enterprises increased scalability and flexibility, along with a reduction in infrastructure and operational costs. As a result, 89 percent of companies are housing part of their application portfolio in the public cloud.1 Whether located in the public cloud, private cloud, or an on-premises data center, applications require specific services to ensure their security, availability, and performance. F5® BIG-IP® virtual editions (VEs) provide all of these benefits. Now fully integrated into the Google Cloud Engine, BIG-IP VEs extend F5’s application delivery capabilities beyond that of the traditional data center perimeter. KEY BENEFITS CHALLENGE • Cut costs by scaling in the cloud, Infinite scalability, unmatched flexibility, and reduced overheads make computing in the public cloud not on premises seem like the perfect IT solution. However, many enterprises making the shift to the cloud do so • Protect customer data anywhere amidst concerns that their applications’ security and performance may be diminished, or that they’ll within a hybrid cloud architecture fall victim to vendor lock-in and incur large re-architecting costs. This is a common fear, with a recent • Easily move workloads between study finding that 78 percent of IT decision makers worry about the portability of their workloads in Google Cloud and data centers the cloud.2 Increased network segregation and inconsistent application services across hybrid cloud • Maintain high availability of web architectures are also placing additional strain on IT departments while generating new security applications vulnerabilities for attackers to take advantage of.

  • IBM Smartcloud: Building a Cloud Enabled Data Center
    Front cover IBM SmartCloud: Building a Cloud Enabled Data Center Redguides for Business Leaders Pietro Iannucci Manav Gupta Learn how to choose the infrastructure as a service (IaaS) solution that best matches your business needs See how to create an open and extensible IaaS solution Explore the details of the Cloud Enabled Data Center adoption pattern Executive overview Organizations are looking for ways to get more out of their already strained IT infrastructure as they face new technological and economic pressures. They are also trying to satisfy a broad set of users (internal and external to the enterprise) who demand improvements in their quality of service (QoS), regardless of increases in the number of users and applications. Cloud computing offers attractive opportunities to reduce costs, accelerate development, and increase the flexibility of the IT infrastructure, applications, and services. Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) is the typical starting point for most organizations when moving to a cloud computing environment. IaaS can be used for the delivery of resources such as compute, storage, and network services through a self-service portal. With IaaS, IT services are delivered as a subscription service, eliminating up-front costs and driving down ongoing support costs. IBM® has defined the Cloud Computing Reference Architecture (CCRA) based on years of experience of working with customers who have implemented cloud-computing solutions. The IBM CCRA is a blueprint or guide for architecting cloud-computing implementations. It is driven by functional and nonfunctional requirements that are collected from many cloud-computing implementations. IBM CCRA provides guidelines and technical work products, such as service and deployment models, and has defined the overarching implementations as adoption patterns.
