Busting Cloud Myths:The top 2...

Myth 1: The Cloud – It’s just a fad

The Cloud – It’s just a fad/fad/ An intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something, esp. one that is short-lived; a craze.

If this myth were to be true thenwe should see a downward trend in the market...

Analyst firm Gartner predicts worldwide revenues for cloud services are expected to reach $148.8 billion by 2015.

Forrester Research predicted that the global cloud computing market will grow from an estimated $40.7 billion in 2011 to $241 billion in 2020.

Cloud services are projected to grow at five-times the rate of current enterprise IT spending.

Myth 2:System Center is not self-sufficient for the Private Cloud

System Center is not self-sufficient for the Private Cloud

System Center encompasses the components needed to provide all aspects of the private cloud.

If this myth were to be true thenwe should not be able to provide the following…

What is a Private Cloud?

Operating SystemVirtualization

A Private Cloud presents the OS and virtualization resources as a

pool of shared resource

The resource pool is created through management, based on

business rules and executed through automation.

Management

You no longer think about numbers of VMs, server ratios,

memory or storage but instead on how much compute resources you

have access to

Your focus now shifts to the applications, where you rely on the

pool of resources to supply the right capacity and capabilities

Benefits of a Private Cloud Beyond Virtualization

Operating SystemVirtualization

ManagementThe Applications can be turned on, off, moved & scaled

Elasticity

The Applications use as much or as little of the resource pool as

neededDynamic

The Applications can be provisioned by end-users based on

business requirements Self-service

The ability to scale is now based on the application’s needs, not limited by the underlying resources;

Server, VM, or even the datacenter
