3 What is this session about? Infrastructure architecture! Often we have to make decisions based on standards Why are those standards set? How do they impact the overall IT organization? What are the long term impacts? Panel type discussion with Q&A from the audience We will use a fictional company as a framework for our discussion A panel of seasoned IT veterans

11 Some Disclaimers (for our session) CLOUD = will specifically mean anything that is moved to an external hosting company (assumes capacity on demand) VIRTULIZATION = The sharing of technology resources (storage, hardware, servers, etc ) There are risks with using external companies (for example, possible litigation for loss of PCI data) These costs can be very high ($ Millions) We will not be debating the specific merits or risks of this, it may come up in conversation, but it is not the focus of our discussion Lets have a good spirited, and friendly discussion

12 B.Y.T.E. Our model company

13 BIT + BYTE = BYTE Byte Young Technologies Enterprises Due to a recent merger of Byte Incorporated Technologies (BIT) plus Byte Young Technologies Enterprises and the explosive use of wireless bytes, we (BITYE) are now the largest byte manufacture in the US. The two previous companies both have a number of legacy data centers that are small and showing their age. The management team has agreed that in order to grow we need new IT infrastructure to support the growing manufacturing company. Company has two primary manufacturing sites located at each coast of the US, along with about 20 distribution / warehouses scattered throughout the US. BLOTI employees about 1,700 people with about 400 contractors and has a gross annual revenue of about $750M As CTO you must set a direction for the infrastructure design and standards for the company, as well as basic staffing plans

14 BYTE What we do Manufacturing company Internal development of hardware and software Internal engineering Contracted field support team Shipping and logistics handled internal and with external partners IT Software used to manage ERP Finances ERP Manufacturing CRM - Customer support Engineering Product design Product testing Source code control Mostly managed by internal IT resources

15 Manufacturing system primer ERP Enterprise Resource Planning (Build and ship) Parts, suppliers, shipments, inventory, orders PLM Product Lifecycle Management (What to build) Product design, testing, specifications, diagrams (CAD / CAM) ALM Application Lifecycle Management (Software needed) PLM for software (Source code control, testing, requirements) Finance (GL, AP, AR) (money coming and going) General Ledger, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable CRM Customer Relationship Management (who we sell to) Sales leads, support tickets, service Web Portal (how to contact us) On-line store, on-line support, marketing Middleware SOA BPL (to tie it all together)

16 We need your help! Audience participation is mandatory Question the designs Place your coins towards your favorite design Cheer us on (be excited) Be open minded, and light hearted

18 Two existing data centers

19 IT Budget Management is willing to make a large investment to make changes Willing to do a complete remap of finances Drop existing equipment and invest in new equipment where needed One-time large cash infusion IT Budget (current)* Software Support $4,000, Hosting $500, Services $500, Software Procurement $3,000, Infrastructure Lease $2,750, Infrastructure Support $1,250, Facilities $750, Telecommunication $1,500, Total $14,250, *Note: Excluding people

20 Choices for the CTO Infrastructure Cloud hosted services Engineered systems Virtualization / Private cloud Traditional physical servers Staff Employees Contractor staff augmentation Service oriented contracts Drivers Adaptable Growth Reliability Reduce cost (overall)

21 The CTO simulation model

22 Review CTO Designs You Bet Your Datacenter

23 What will we be looking for in a design? Technology Benefits Reliability Speed of adoption Agility Elasticity Performance Cost Staffing Experience Capabilities Reliability Execution skills Retention Cost

24 Design Reviews CIO describes their design We review some high-level information Diagram Cost model Staffing model We look for some simple capabilities in the model Growth / expandability Adaptability Training / Staffing Audience questions

25 Specific first questions for each design Do you believe your new model will require a new staff, staff retraining, or possibly staff outsourcing? How would your model respond to a large increase in server or application demand? (new ERP system, etc ) How would your model respond to a decrease in server or application demand? (consolidation of an ERP system, etc )

26 Designs 1-4

27 Designs #X Kirby Highly virtualize traditional model Key Components 1 Virtual Servers 2 Virtual Networks 3 Commodity building blocks

28 Designs #X Kirby Highly virtualize traditional model Guiding Principles 1.Minimize Delivery Patterns Example, 2 DB patterns, 1 RAC, 1 standalone Linux and windows Retire SAN, migrate to Network storage 2.Use Commodity Hardware Fast, cheap, replaceable Be willing swap out servers before depreciated to take advantage of hardware advances Assume hardware will fail, plan around it. 3.Focus on Delivering Strategic Items good, outsource the rest as appropriate Exchange is not strategic, not cost effective to run Data is strategic, control in house or through trusted partners Disaster Recovery is an insurance policy 4. Virtualize everything. Networks, servers, storage, tapes

29 Designs #X Kai Heterogeneous model utilizing external Cloud service and internal IT virtualized infrastructure for application/database consolidation of 1. Control Leverage external Systems cloud service offering: Outsourcing selective applications to external cloud service, such ERP, finance, middleware apps to leverage the expertise of the cloud service provider. Need to find the proper Cloud services providers Things to consider: security, high availability and cost saving 2. Leverage virtualized IT infrastructure for applications consolidation Various virtualization solutions for business applications and middleware Provide virtualized infrastructure for DEV and test environments. Servers, storage virtualization. 3. Consolidating Oracle databases for various business applications Leverage latest Oracle 12c multitenant database architecture Based on Oracle RAC architecture and DR for HA 4. HA and cost effective IT Infrastructure Based on cost effective open and commodity hardware Consolidation enables the cost effective high availability architecture design Leverage the latest server and storage technology for optimized performance
