THREE LAYERS OF CLOUD

CLOUD OPTIONS►Practical Paths to Oracle Cloud for (Oracle) Applications Customers

Any Combination of these Paths – Journey to the Cloud

►Migrate to SaaS• Migrate by pillar

• Migrate by product line or business unit

• Migrate by country/region

• Avoid complex integration scenarios

► Extend with SaaS – Hybrid• Planning and Budgeting, Revenue Management

• Adaptive Intelligent Apps

• Talent Management

► Re-platform on IaaS• Start small and grow out or “Big Bang”

• Look to optimize costs

• Gain efficiencies

• Possible green agenda

►Keep your investment

✓ The software your users are familiar with

✓ Your customizations remain in place

✓ Integrations can be shifted too

✓ You already own it!

✓ All enable a rapid re-platforming

WHY RE-PLATFORM TO IAAS


►Cost reasons!

✓ Cloud (may) reduce your IT run costs

✓ Cloud vendors buy at a scale to pass savings to customers

✓ Pay only for what you use

✓ DR can become a “pilot light” model

✓ No more hardware refresh cycle

✓Operational Costs…


►Operational Reasons

✓ Efficiencies

✓ Consistency (standards)

✓ Elimination of unused capacity and modern paradigms

(e.g. tapes disappear)

✓ Automation

✓ Elasticity

✓ Agility (e.g. taking clones)

✓ Security!

We pass a lot of security off to the cloud vendor, plus we

can access services we perhaps couldn’t before – WAF, SEIM

etc

WHY RE-PLATFORM TO IaaS

►Performance

✓ How old is your hardware?

✓ Do you have NVMe Flash for all tiers?

- DB performance typically IOPS bound

- OCI can deliver 500k+ IOPS on a single server

✓ Don’t get fooled by CPU clock speed.. SpecINT rate

✓ Steal time in virtual environments

- OCI does not over provision and no core sharing

✓ Are you still on 1Gb networks?

IMPACT ON BAU

►Take advantage of the shared responsibility model

✓ Hardware support costs reduce to 0

✓ Storage management cost fall

✓ Network management costs fall

✓OS: Autonomous Capabilities now coming into play

✓ DBCS to streamline database administration

LAYER INFRASTRUCTURE AS A SERVICE (IaaS) PLATFORM AS A SERVICE (PaaS) SOFTWARE AS A SERVICE (SaaS)

Operating System Customer responsibility Customer responsibility Cloud provider responsibility

Virtualisation Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility

Servers Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility

Storage Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility

Network Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility

Physical Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility Cloud provider responsibility

IMPACT ON BAU

►Patching and Upgrades

✓ Take advantage of PaaS to reduce risk

✓ Deploying Oracle on DBCS reduces the risk around upgrades and patches (herd

immunity)

✓ Rapid (and elastic) cloning allows for easier testing of patch/upgrades – IaC to spin up

on demand

✓ Security patching is likely to become more common

✓Oracle Cloud provides Ksplice for free – zero downtime kernel patching

✓ Autonomous technologies are self patching/securing

✓ Containerisation/K8s as the ultimate evolution – Chaos Engineering anyone?

✓WAF to remediate and compensate

THIS ISN’T ABOUT REMOVING JOBS

► “Far too many procurements feature absurdly over-prescriptive requirements. We should be

procuring on the basis of the outcomes and outputs we seek, not the detailed inputs. We

should be focusing on the ‘what’, not the ‘how’.

► This kind of procurement drives out innovative and competitive suppliers. So we will ensure

that in future we focus on outputs and outcomes.”Francis Maude

(“The Crown and suppliers: a new way of working”)Nov 2011

Right Sizing is important

►Maximise your investment

✓ A lot of cloud migrations match existing on 1:1 basis

✓ Can be seen as reducing risk

✓ Reality is often different

✓ Systems sized for peak (wasted spend off peak)

✓ Systems inadequate for peak (missed optimisation opportunity)

✓Migration off older hardware means not like for like comparison

✓Ensure you “right size”

✓ Put some science into the specification (e.g. SpecInt, IOP metrics)

✓ But don’t expend too much effort.. Cloud is elastic after all (if you configure that way)

✓Make sure you track actual usage .. Because you “pay as you play”

WHERE TO BEGIN?

►Specific environments

✓ Typically start with non-production use cases

✓Migrate DR to the cloud

►Cloud Readiness Assessment – Inoapps package

✓Gather real world usage metrics (CPU, IO) and validate “right size” against the cloud –

make sure you maximise the cost benefits

✓ Perform analysis on inbound and outbound connections to capture integrations

✓Map requirements to an Infrastructure as Code (IaC) model for Rapid cloud deployment

✓ Identify opportunities to extend/improve using cloud

WHERE TO GO TO?

►Cloud is only partially about economics (IMHO)

✓ Hardware refresh period and hosting costs can be “tweaked”

✓ Capex vs Opex a debate best left to the accountants

►Cloud provides agility

✓ Just like it allows smaller startups to use the same technologies as enterprises without

large upfront investment costs

✓ Rapid prototyping

✓ PaaS services move us towards an outcome based computing model

✓ An increasing trend to event based computing

Infrastructure (e.g. network / hosting, backup)
