Cloud computing architecture provider's private cloud roadmap comb

Now the private cloud market has become a battleground for many manufacturers. A wide range of proprietary cloud route diagrams and scenarios are dazzling to corporate users, and this article combs the private cloud roadmap of mainstream cloud computing architecture providers in the hope that it will help companies choose the private cloud route that best suits them.





Microsoft





Microsoft's private cloud Roadmap has always been clear, dedicated to helping users smooth transition from the original data center to the private cloud's IT architecture, to protect the user's original investment, specifically five steps: first, using Active Directory to achieve unified identity management , followed by the use of Hyper-V for virtualization; The third step is to implement dynamic management using System Center; the fourth step is to use SSP/DDTK to establish self-service portals, and finally to deploy applications on the cloud platform.





IBM





IBM has established its own methodology in building IaaS, proposing four key elements for building IaaS, namely, resource consolidation, managing workloads, process automation, and optimizing service interactions. The first is resource integration: refers to the use of virtualization technology in the data center of the original decentralized computing, storage and network resources to integrate, to form a unified scheduling, management of virtual resource pool, so as to improve the resource utilization, but also reduce the complexity of the infrastructure. The second step is to manage the workload, that is, to allocate resources dynamically on a shared pool of resources based on the priority level of the workload.





Third step process automation is better understood. IBM provides enterprises with a range of methodologies and tools to improve the efficiency of processes around best practices, business rules, priorities, and standard automation. The final step in optimizing service delivery is to use cloud computing to improve service delivery, to help enterprises overcome specific service delivery challenges, and to promote it and business integration.





Oracle





Oracle started late in the private cloud, and the private cloud was clearly less invested than the previous two vendors, until March 2011, when Oracle unveiled a cloud computing strategy at Oracle Cloud Computing media that showed Oracle's cloud computing goal was to support both public and private clouds- Gives customers a choice, but the current strategy focuses more on the private cloud.





for Oracle's private Cloud road map, the author is also experienced a hard search to get on the map, really hold the pipa half cover ah. In particular, it is divided into four main steps: The first step is to standardize, define a single solution for a specific problem, and the second step is to consolidate resources on a standardized basis in order to reduce the way deployment is applied; The third step is to automate, reduce the manual operations of IT management, and the final step is to optimize, Through optimization to achieve new operating mode and maximum efficiency.





HP





's "converged infrastructure" is the core idea of HP in the cloud computing era, and HP is trying to help companies move from island to private to the IT architecture of the cloud.





Cisco





from Cisco and EMC to the virtual Computing Environnement Alliance, Cisco started to drive Center virtualization and transition to private cloud architectures, increasing the flexibility of IT infrastructure, reducing it, Energy and space costs, enabling customers to quickly improve business agility.





in general, Cisco's corporate Private Cloud roadmap includes four phases, including consolidation (consolidation), virtualization (Virtualizatiion), automation (Don), Private cloud (private Cloud).





EMC





In fact, the Vplex product development line fully conforms to the virtualization and private cloud vision described by the CEO and chief operating officer Pat Gelsinger of EMC's Information Infrastructure products division at EMC World Congress. EMC believes enterprise information infrastructure development goes through three patterns: the first is stand alone, which is the model for most data center applications, and independent applications are deployed on separate servers, each using separate storage, known as physical storage (physical data centers).





If the idea of virtual data center is transformed, the first is to do integration, the purpose is to break the boundaries of the server, sharing physical resources. With EMC fast, you can break storage boundaries within your data center. You can implement automatic provisioning within the array, which is done according to the needs of the user. You can further transition to the resource collaboration pool.





HDS




When
HDS publishes its unified Computing Platform (UCP) strategy, it divides the process of the enterprise private cloud roadmap into three phases, including hardware product integration, management integration, and service integration. Hardware integration, specifically refers to the existing storage, server, network and other hardware bundled together, there is no compatibility problem can be a whole solution. The second stage is to emphasize management integration, through some management platform software to achieve unified management, beyond the system and system management boundaries. The third step of service integration is to integrate and provide some user's service application in the system architecture, so that users can really transition to the "cloud".





Dell





In the Dell Roadmap, the first phase is virtualization, provide a flexible pool of resources, reduce costs, and increase the sensitivity of obligations, at this stage, organizations in each organization through the implementation of virtualized infrastructure, the IT team can accumulate the necessary knowledge to build confidence in virtual technology and cloud computing technology; the second phase, Organizations will and accelerate the application of virtualization, extend the scope of virtualization to better workloads, including critical production applications; In the third phase, organizations can interconnect multiple data centers they own to create a unified pool of resources and a private cloud. When the situation is right, it teams can also "push" some applications to a compatible public cloud, helping to balance certain spikes or unpredictable requirements. The resulting hybrid infrastructure will provide real, on-demand computing and high flexibility.





Dawn





Shuguang suggested that the private cloud roadmap for the enterprise from the resource layer, the system layer and the access layer have three layers: to virtualize the underlying hardware through virtualization in the resource layer, to provide the system layer with abstract, dynamically tuned computing and storage capabilities; The system layer builds various business systems using the computing and storage resources provided by the resource layer. It also includes private cloud disaster preparedness solutions, and the access layer uses intelligent service delivery technology to deliver the various business systems provided by the system layer to the user.
