• Dedicated vs. Shared hardware
• Network Isolation • Software Defined Networking (NVGRE)
• Fabric VM infrastructure • High availability, scaling & security
• Nutanix specifics Dedicated vs Shared Hardware
Shared nodes Dedicated vs Shared Hardware
Grow into POD design Networking
Isolate traffic Network isolation SDN (NVGRE)
Use NVGRE Fabric infrastructure High available databases
Using SQL Server for • Virtual Machine Manager • Windows Azure Pack • System Center Operations Manager
Use SQL Server AlwaysOn availability groups
Take care with back in time recovery https://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn832926.aspx Fabric infrastructure The basics
• Split public vs. privileged services • Security !!
• No Express deployments • Proof of Concepts only
Fabric infrastructure Go distributed & Go scalable
Fabric infrastructure Authentication & Optional providers
Nutanix specific
• Enable Jumbo Frames • Only connect 10 GbE interfaces • Have 1 domain controller away from Nutanix
• Domain join Nutanix nodes using the script • setup_hyperv.py setup_hosts
• Use SQL Server AlwaysOn for the database backend • Add Hyper-V hosts and storage to SCVMM using the script • setup_hyperv.py setup_scvmm Azure Pack Demo Conclusion
Key takeaways
• Automation, Integration, Convergence Agility • DevOps / Public Cloud couldn’t happen without it • Requires APIs and simple interfaces -> PowerShell & REST • Web-Scale = Easy • Nutanix + Windows Azure Pack can make it easy • Full Reference Architecture available • We are here to help you • Nutanix brings Web-Scale convergence • Windows Azure Pack provides a Private Cloud foundation • Synergics shares experience and delivers services Your feedback is important!
