NIST defines cloud computing as a set of characteristics, delivery models, and deployment models
On-demand self-service
Ubiquitous network access
Resource pooling
Rapid elasticity
Pay per use
5 Characteristics
Software as a Service (SaaS)
Platform as a Service (PaaS)
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
3 Delivery Models
Private Cloud
Community Cloud
Public Cloud
Hybrid Cloud
4 Deployment Models

A “Connectivity Explosion” • Applications, formats, APIs, protocols,
standards, etc. • Connected business partners
Connectivity neither trivial nor static: • Incompatible structures, semantics,
business rules • No mature standards • Changes abound • Not easy to create robust Web services
interfaces
Connectivity becomes more challenging than ever

Data volumes increases at an explosive rate

CLOUD COMPUTING
A Fit When:
Processes, applica=ons, and data are largely independent
Points of integra=on are well defined
Lower level of security is fine
Core internal enterprise architecture is healthy
Web is the desired plaaorm
Cost is an issue
Applica=ons are new
Not A Fit When:
Processes, applica=ons, and data are largely coupled
Points of integra=on are not well defined
Higher level of security is required
Core internal enterprise architecture needs work
The applica=on requires a na=ve interface
Cost is an issue
Applica=on is legacy

DR and Cloud Compu=ng

VALUE OF CLOUD AND DR
• FIRST, THE COST OF LEVERAGING CLOUD COMPUTING AS PART OF YOUR BUSINESS CONTINUITY STRATEGY.
– NO DATA CENTER INVESTMENT.
– YOU CAN TURN IT ON WHEN NEEDED.
– THIS OPENS OPPORTUNITIES FOR BUSINESSES THAT TYPICALLY COULD NOT AFFORD A BACK-‐UP CENTER.
– THE DOLLAR ESTIMATE IS THAT THE COST IS ABOUT A FOURTH THAT OF TRADITIONAL BACKUP SITES.
– THE TRICK IS TO FIND THE CLOUD COMPUTING PROVIDER THAT MEETS YOUR DR REQUIREMENTS.
© Bick Group 2010
VALUE OF CLOUD AND DR
• THE SECOND, IS THE SPEED IN STANDING UP A SITE. – AGAIN, NO NEED TO
PURCHASE AND TEST HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE.
– OVER AND ABOVE THE COST ADVANTAGES.
– YOU CAN BECOME A CLOUD COMPUTING CUSTOMER TODAY WITH A CREDIT CARD.
© Bick Group 2010
VALUE OF CLOUD AND DR
• FINALLY, THERE IS THE FACT THAT MOST CLOUD-‐COMPUTING SYSTEMS ARE UBIQUITOUS. – THUS, IF YOU HAVE ACCESS TO A
BROWSER AND THE INTERNET, THAN YOU CAN ACCESS YOUR CORE BUSINESS SYSTEMS AND CONTINUE YOUR BUSINESS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.
– THIS IS HANDY CONSIDERING THAT MOST DISASTERS MEAN EMPLOYEES WON’T HAVE ACCESS TO THEIR OFFICES OR WORKPLACES.

MAPPING A PATH
• SO, HOW DO YOU MOVE TOWARD A CLOUD COMPUTING-‐ORIENTED DR STRATEGY? – YOU START, AS WITH ANY DR
STRATEGIES, BY UNDERSTANDING THE REQUIREMENTS, INCLUDING THE RELATIVE COST OF RISK.
– FROM THERE YOU CAN ASSESS THE FIT OF A CLOUD COMPUTING PROVIDER WITHIN THE DR STRATEGY.
© Bick Group 2010
MAPPING A PATH
• YOU ALSO NEED TO CONSIDER THE INHERENT RISKS. – YOUR DATA IS BEING PHYSICALLY
MIXED TOGETHER WITH DATA FROM OTHER COMPANIES, EVEN THOUGH LOGICALLY THEY APPEAR AS DEDICATED SYSTEMS.
– AS MANY OF THE CLOUD COMPUTING PROVIDERS MATURE, THERE MAY BE MORE UPSIDES TO LEVERAGING CLOUD COMPUTING PROVIDERS AS A PART OF YOUR DR STRATEGY, EVEN WITH ALL OF THE DOWNSIDES CONSIDERED
• FOR NOW, THIS IS ANOTHER GOOD OPTION FOR DR.

The Bick Approach

PATH TO THE CLOUDS
Path to clouds: start with the architecture
Understand: • Mission drivers • Informa=on under management
• Exis=ng services under management
• Core business processes

STEPPING TO THE CLOUDS
1. Access the mission. 2. Access the culture. 3. Access the value. 4. Understand your data. 5. Understand your services. 6. Understand your processes. 7. Understand the cloud
resources. 8. Iden=fy candidate data. 9. Iden=fy candidate services 10. Iden=fy candidate processes.
11. Create a governance strategy.
12. Create a security strategy.
13. Bind candidate services to data and processes.
14. Relocate services, processes, and informa=on.
15. Implement security.
16. Implement governance.
17. Implement opera=ons.
