sharepoint in the clouds – select, mix, and deploy whats right for you
DESCRIPTION
Many "clouds" support SharePoint 2013. And these many “clouds” can be combined adding unique value based on your unique requirements. This session is designed to help ITI's and ITDM's find the right cloud formula to deploy based on practical business and technical considerations. You'll understand how to differentiate between private and public clouds, IaaS and SaaS, as well as hybrid scenarios with absolute clarity of the business benefits and the IT best practices.TRANSCRIPT

Collaboration has evolved
Data anytime, anywhere.
Pick your tools. It’s all about self-service.
Bring your own device.
Social experiences.
Built for the business user, not the IT organization.
Change is coming to all of your enterprise applications
Questions we’ll cover in this session:What are the business drivers for SharePoint in the cloud?What are the differences between SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS?What are the differences between public and private cloud?What are some of the common cloud scenarios that SharePoint customers are using today?What are the best practices I should consider as I develop my own cloud strategy?
What is driving SharePoint into the cloud?
The NIST-SP 500-291, NIST Cloud Computing Standards roadmap publication from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) defines cloud computing:
Enabling ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources
Rapidly provisioned
Minimal management effort or service provider interaction
A professionally managed data center with 24x7 support and advanced network security and intrusion detection.
No need to worry about network and server hardware and software.
Rapid provisioning with little or no upfront costs for hardware and software.
Identity management for external users, multiple security options.
On-demand scale-out to meet variable capacity demands.
Advantages of the Cloud
The CIO Dilemma:
Balancing end user requests with compliance and governance constraints, weighing costs and flexibility
Is there risk in moving my data to the cloud?
According to a 2013 Forbes survey:
of workers used an unsanctioned cloud service for document storage in the last 6 months41%
87%$1.8
of these workers knew their company had policies forbidding such practices
(billion) estimated annual cost to remedy the data loss

• The cloud decision is intrinsically tied to end user adoption and, ultimately, business alignment
What are the differences between SaaS, PaaS, and Iaas?
Alternatives for control, cost, & capability
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)
(network architects)
Software as a Service (SaaS)(end users)
Platform as a Service (PaaS)(app developers and designers)
Standardized (packaged) platform Provided with Service Level Agreements
(SLAs) Minimal customization Both software and hardware infrastructure
provided within the service
Software as a Service
Architectural and development access to application services, storage, and application runtime
Infrastructure Service Level Agreements (SLAs), but work must be conducted within agreed framework
Some customizations allowed, within framework
Both software and hardware infrastructure provided within the service
Platform as a Service
Virtualized hardware and software, including servers, storage, and network infrastructure
All components delivered as metered services (pay per use)
Complete application control and customization
Infrastructure as a Service
What is the difference between public and private cloud?
Infrastructure maintained solely for customer
On premises or off
Managed by the customer, or by a 3rd party hoster
Private Cloud Hybrid Cloud
Multiple infrastructure options
Components both on premises and off premises
Management spread between customer and 3rd party hosters
Infrastructure shared by multiple customers
Off premises
Managed by 3rd party on behalf of customers
Public Cloud

Worldwide spending on public IT cloud services will grow from $47.4 billion in 2013 to more than $107 billion in 2017
http://www.eweek.com/small-business/public-it-cloud-services-spending-to-reach-108-billion-by-2017-idc.html
Over the next several years, the primary driver for cloud adoption will shift from economics to innovation as leading-edge companies invest in cloud services as the foundation for new competitive offerings.
Frank Gens, Senior Vice President and Chief Analyst at IDC
Cloud
According to IDC, virtual private clouds (Azure) will accelerate organizations into the cloud
• By 2017, public IT cloud services will drive 17% of IT product spending and nearly half of all growth across five technology categories:
• Applications• System infrastructure software• Platform as a service (PaaS)• Servers• Basic storage
• Software as a service (SaaS) will remain the largest public IT cloud services category throughout the forecast, capturing 59.7% of revenues in 2017.
• The fastest growing categories will be PaaS and IaaS, with CAGRs of 29.7% and 27.2%, respectively.

What are some of the common cloud scenarios for SharePoint?
You can deploy SharePoint 2013 solutions on physical and virtual infrastructures, which include the following environments:• On-premises, physical or virtual• Private cloud (in-house)• Private cloud (hosted)• Public cloud
Rapid provisioning of new workloads on Office 365 while maintaining existing on-premises workloads
Organizations wishing to migrate workloads from an existing on-premises environment to the cloud over time in a phased approach
Organizations wanting to supplement their cloud environment with additional features or customizations which are currently only possible on-premises
Compliance or data sovereignty reasons which might stipulate certain data be hosted in a particular location

SP2013 and SPO Hybrid Considerations• Size and geographical distribution of an organization can affect cloud
adoption.
• Regulatory compliance and governance requirements can limit cloud options.
• External collaboration may require on prem farms.
• Service-level agreements (SLAs) may limit cloud options.
• It is important to under the ROI of any proposed solution (and the cost of change).
• Hybrid may be more of a transitional environment from on prem to the cloud.
• Enables customers to use preferred features from SharePoint 2013 on prem and SharePoint Online.

Common solutions for the Cloud
On Premises Cloud
As SharePoint and Office 365 mature, they will be broken into their core services.
Through OTB tools, APIs and 3rd party vendor solutions, organizations will be able to consume via a truly IaaS model.
Eventually, we will design solutions using only those components needed to meet business requirements, many of them accessed via the app model or other customized solutions.
Requires firm understanding of your requirements and your current, and future, employee skillsets.

Common Questions
Take a look at the tools and systems you use today, and figure out which ones could save time and money by moving to the cloud.
Hosted Exchange is a relatively easy platform to move to the cloud -- the platform is mature, and there are ample vendors offering strong SLAs.
Focus first on moving to mature solutions (minimize risk of moving), then investigate new capabilities not already in house (minimize cost of trying new solutions)
What Cloud services should I pursue?
Rarely can companies go entirely into the cloud, as not every platform is cloud-ready, and many orgs have extensive customizations in on-prem.
Hybrid environments will be around for some time, and the move for many companies will be incremental.
Should I consider cloud-only or a combination of cloud and on-prem?
Same as any other vendor selection process, look carefully at what they offer, who they support, and how long they’ve been in business.
Depending on what you plan to move into the cloud, look for partners with the strongest Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
Also look for specialization. For example, work with a hosted PPM provider with a strong history in project management, not just a hosting service running an instance of Project Server.
What kind of partners should I choose?
Make governance a priority Look at your systems holistically (a business view),
regardless of where the servers sit Clarify and document your permissions, information
architecture, templates, content types, taxonomy -- and ownership of each
First define what policies, procedures, and metrics are needed to manage your environment, and then look at what is possible across your cloud and on-prem instances
