Session objectives

• Understand when hybrid clouds are being used

• Position the main IBM offerings

• Private cloud with IBM Cloud Manager with Openstack

• Public cloud with Soflayer

• Interconnection methods

• See an implementation of an hybrid cloud

• Demo1 - Create a IAAS Private cloud on Power systems using IBM Cloud Manager with Openstack

• Demo2 - Leverage Urban Code to move from IAAS to PAAS to deploy application.

• Demo3 - Use Soflayer resource to build our Hybrid Cloud managed by our on-premise ICM.

Demo 1: Build the IaaS private OpenStack on Power Systems

On-premise

dedicated

The Cloud Administrator is deploying ICM on top of PowerVC to build an open IaaS cloud.

Starting from ICM, the cloud admin is configuring users, projects, quotas and the service catalog.

OpenStackCloud

Admin

Featured Products• IBM Power Systems

• IBM Power Virtualization Center

• IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack

Value proposition

• ICM is an OpenStack based IaaS including a single

pane of glass, cross platforms and multi-regions.


SoftLayer offers a broad portfolio of infrastructure choices to help you achieve greater business agility.

Any compute and

storage combination at

any time is available in

three models.

Dedicated virtualized

environment

Directly access more than 240 back-end services through more

than 3,400 API methods

Control APIs at the function level, not just by pre-defined classes

of APIs, for greater security

Build auto-scaling environments for on-demand growth

Triple network

architecture accessible

through a Vyatta

gateway


Connecting the 2 worlds

Direct Link

• Dedicated secure connection from

customer’s network to SoftLayer’s

private network

• Does not traverse the Internet

• 1Gbps or 10 Gbps

• Unmetered

Communication is through Cast Iron Live

• Secure Connector with 128-bit encryption

and X.509 certificate authentication

• Able to connect to most major applications

(SAP, for example), databases, and web

services

• Expose orchestrations and endpoints as

REST services for consumption by Systems

of Engagement


SoftLayer offers a Network Gateway Appliance

powered by the Vyatta Network OS

• Vyatta Network OS subscription edition deployed on a bare metal server

• Managed by the customer

• Can protect both public and private VLANs.

• Capabilities:

• Firewall

• VPN

• Load-balancing

• NAT

• QoS

Fortinet FortiGate

security appliance

Other methods


Direct Link example

Direct Link is a Layer 3 network service that allows customers to establish a dedicated

connection from their own IT infrastructure to the SoftLayer private network and cloud

services, with faster and more consistent network performance, and higher data security.

Note that this is a SPOF. Links to 2 different POPs are necessary for redundancy.

UrbanCode Deploy supports deployment automation in hybrid cloud

scenarios across Bluemix and non-Bluemix environments

• UrbanCode Deploy automates the deployment of the same application to both Bluemix for dev/test and then to on-prem data center or other cloud environments

• Amazon Web Services and OpenStack are currently supported cloud targets

Session Summary

• We just learn that

• PowerVC is managing the basics of compute nodes, storage attachment and VLANs

• IBM Cloud Manager with OpenStack act as a single pane of glass for cloud administrator, and has also a self-service component if you want to quickly build an IaaS.

• UrbanCode Deploy and Deploy with Patterns allow me to deploy patterns based on Heat templates

• Softlayer provides Bare Metal servers as well as VMs
