Business Value of Cloud MigrationMigration Factory Business Value

• Consolidate systems onto a bi-modal ready infrastructure suite

• Reduce time-to-market through self-service and faster provisioning

• Reduce TCO by moving to an open source cloud infrastructure

• Increase business agility through greater systems flexibility

• Reduce migration risk and effort via automated processes

RED HAT CONSULTING: CLOUD MIGRATIONSRadically simplify the process of migrating workloads from legacy platforms to build out a robust, flexible cloud computing infrastructure to reduce operational costs and provide better agility to stakeholders. Red Hat Consulting helps you:

RED HAT CONSULTING: CLOUD MIGRATIONS

DISCOVERY SESSIONReview and capture infrastructure

requirements, processes, workload, and environment details as it pertains to

developing a cloud migration strategy.

WORKSHOPSProvide a target-state architecture for a

Cloud Migration Solution based on Red Hat products with an implementation

roadmap identifying levels of effortand timelines for organizational adoption.

IMPLEMENTATIONDeploy the target architecture to the client environment(s). Develop, test, and deploy

automated workload migration. Operationalize cloud management and

mentor client organization.

Eliminate vendor dependency

Mitigate risk Reduce TCO Accelerate provisioning

Deliver services faster

Streamline processes

Migrate Workloads

1. Understanding current and future-state architecture, even when current-state is not fully documented

2. Mapping applications to migration and modernization patterns

3. A platform to orchestrate the migration, preserving VM relationships and application ordering

4. A well-designed infrastructure, capable of processing the effort at scale

5. Enabling the people and process to effectively manage change

MORE THAN JUST MOVING VMsMigration Success Requires…

Successful Migrations Require a Holistic Approach

CLOUD MIGRATION PHILOSOPHYPEOPLE

PROCESS TECHNOLOGY

PeopleDrive collaboration across the organizationPut the right people in position to create positive changeApply mentoring throughout to enable internal capabilities

ProcessEngage a repeatable ‘migration factory’ approach to iterate through workloadsEstablish a continuous improvement atmosphere to evolve across iterations

TechnologyUnique migration tooling/templates help organize, automate, and orchestrate Open-source solutions maximize cost savings and eliminate lock-in

THE PEOPLECollaboration and Expertise

Migration Program Management Office

Collaboration of Red Hat and Customer stakeholders/experts

Provides overarching project governance and organizational alignment

Actively manages and mitigates risks

Secures commitment from cross-functional teams

Red Hat Consulting has developed the migration expertise

Team consisting of delivery managers, architects, and consultants

A proven approach and experience to mass-migrate 1,000s of VMs

A holistic approach for migration management, automation, and orchestration

THE PEOPLEBuilding the Partnership

Successful migrations require the engagement of the right peopleBusiness Owner: Align the migration goals with the business strategyArchitect: Design an architecture that moves the business forwardOperations: Address the long-term success of the solutionDevelopment: Enhance the developer experienceTesting: Streamline the migration validation process Security/Compliance: Comply with business policies and standardsUser: Understand and address the end-user experience

THE PROCESSBased on Agile and Scrum Methodology

Rapid delivery of business-driven results

Upfront analysis of LOE and risk

Cross organizational buy-in

Incremental value delivered early and often

Quick wins and cost savings

THE PROCESSHigh-level Migrations

Proven process to mass-migrate 1,000s of VMsHolistic migration approach for management, automation, and orchestrationApplication analysis for migration targets and approach“Migration factory” of tooling and templates to accelerate, automate, and manage

migrations

THE PROCESSPre-migration

Automated discovery of VM/app characteristics:

Reduces risk, when VM characteristics may not be well-documented or understood within the organization

Build a taxonomy to identify and group (“tag”) common VM apps:

Group like VMs together to simplify and reduce error

Prepare the “POA” environment:

Create networking, check quotas

Prepare the VM for shutdown:

Move to storage holding area

Application owner identified and groups

workloads for migrationApplication owner creates

validation planCreate network and check

quota on POAvMotion VMs to NFS

storageTag VMs for migration

THE PROCESSMigration day

Automated Virtual-to-Virtual VM conversion:

Converts from source image format (e.g. OVA) to destination format

Creates volumes and launches VM instances

Monitor results in real-time:

Report predictable outcomes to stakeholders

Configuration and Application Startup:

Install RHCI tooling, perform post-migration configuration, start application

Automated Testing HookApplication owner

validates and approves migration

Submit request to migrate selected group

Post-migration configuration & application

startup

Migration state machine converts workload to new

platform

Stop Vms

THE PROCESSPost-migration

Service Catalog updates:Add extended information on new environment

Validation and Cleanup:

Validate results (e.g. automated testing, monitoring)

Decommission workloads

Divest of old assets

Update service catalog Agreement to clean-up old workload

Decommission VM from POD

Process completes

THE PROCESS

Team identifies and groups migration workloads

Application owner creates validation plan

Create network and check quota on POA

vMotion VMs toNFS storage

Tag VMs for migration

Application owner validates and

approves migration

Post-migration configuration &

application startup

Migration state machine converts workload to

new platform

Submit request to migrate selected

group

Stop VMs

Update service catalog Agreement to clean-up old workload

Decommission VM from POD

Process completes

Cloud Migration in Action

THE TECHNOLOGYPowered by Red Hat Cloud Suite

Host workloads in Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization and/or Red Hat OpenStack

Manage, automate, and orchestrate with Red Hat CloudForms

THE TECHNOLOGYPre-Migration Processing

Automated discovery of VMs and application characteristicsAllows dependencies to be understood, cataloged, and orchestrated during

migrationReduces risk when VM or application characteristics may not be well-documented or

understood within the organizationBuild a taxonomy to identify and group (“tag”) common VM apps

Simplifies mass migrations to reduce risk of errorLeverages data obtained through CloudForms

THE TECHNOLOGY

Configure state machine templates to orchestrate the migrationCreate repeatable migration paths, error handling, and rollback paths, to ensure

migrations are managed uniformlyDefine a migration window to ensure VM ordering and dependencies are properly

managedImplement push-button self-service catalogs to perform migrations

Migrations can be automated at the push of a button, and parallelized, leveraging state machine workflows

Monitor the migration process in real-timeReport predictable outcomes to stakeholdersValidate migration and notify owners
