Ultra Modular Computing
• Like Cloud Computing, but deployed within the
Enterprise – and with some key differences
Applications
Commodit y hardware infrastructure
'Enterprise Enabling Software Layer(s)'

UMC has potential to be hugely disruptive
• Possible combination of both Grid and Cloud Computing
technologies – but deployed within the Enterprise
• Exploits ultra low cost of commodity hardware
• Reduces cost to manage by 10x-100x
• Provides many of the business advantages of Cloud
Computing, but without several of the concerns
• Introduces an enterprise-specific asynchronous,
transaction-based, dynamic and scalable computing
environment

How UMC will arrive …
• All Enterprises encounter ‘core decision events’ -when
an opportunity appears which provides the chance to
introduce major change
• UMC will exploit ‘thin end of the wedge’ adoption; can be
introduced gradually
• Main downside: most costs are up front in the initial
enterprise-specific software environment – but, once
done, scalability is there for the taking

Key UMC decisions
• Should the UMC software environment:
» only look to the future (new application and
development models)
» enable existing application and development models,
and, possibly, operating systems
» both*
* This is the most expensive route
Cloud Computing Interoperability Forum
“Unified Cloud Interface” (aka broker)
Implement as XMPP Extension Protocol (XEP)
Address PaaS and IaaS
Collaboration with OASIS, OMG, W3C, and OGF on Cloud Reference Architecture
“Global Socialization” through 2009 events
- NCOIC Enterprise Cloud Computing Working Groups
- Open Group 2009 Global Enterprise Cloud Computing Conferences
- CloudCamp
- ASD NII Cloud Computing Conference
- World Summit of Cloud Computing
Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) approval
IEEE International Workshop on Cloud Computing
“Standards Body” Approach
General Disagreement with “Standards Body” approach
External vs. Internal Cloud Competition
• Legacy applications to the cloud
o High value for Enterprise CIO
o Worst scenario for External cloud providers
• External cloud best practices (like EC2) result in Enterprise cloud implementation and management applications and tools
• Internal metering vs. External implementation
o Lack of metering tools
o Lack of consistent metrics
o Inability to build Internal vs. External ROI
Cloud Application definition
• Entire application in cloud,
• Single service in cloud
• Mashed-up services in cloud
• 3Tera Applogic “Automation Bundle”
Adopt existing Cloud-VM standard
• Distributed Management Task Force - Open Virtualization Format (DMTF-OVF)
• Reservoir Project
“Adopt Proven Technology” Approach
Technology doesn’t set standards. Industry use cases set the standards
Main Cloud Value = Reduced Cost
• Solid Cloud ROI model required
Define Interoperability Requirements from Customer Viewpoint
• Disaster Recovery
o Between Enterprise and External Cloud
o Between External Clouds
Customer Driven Standards & Interoperability
• Identify industry cloud needs via Web/Email Survey, Interviews, etc.
• Build Internal/External Cloud ROI models
• Large Industry Customers cooperatively drive cloud vendor standards and interoperability through ability to deliver on Industry organization cloud ROI models
“Customer Driven” Approach
Three distinct and valuable approaches
• Standards Body
• Adopt Proven Technology
• Customer Driven
Issues
• Global agreement on standards could be a long process
• “Proven Technology” may mean “Proprietary Technology”
• Multiple industry customers could result in industry linked standards for cloud
Hybrid needed (Examples)
• Release “Proven Technology” to industry and adopt as basis for open standard
• Multiple standards optimized for industry ROI models
• “Interoperability Rating “ issued after standards body technical review
NCOIC engagement needed for any approach
