Cloud Computing: The next step in the evolution of IT Centralized Computing: 1960 – Optimized for sharing, industrial strength, systems management, … Managed by central IT organization Back office applications involving transactions, shared data bases, … Mainframes, supercomputers, minicomputers, … Client/Server: 1980 – Optimized for low costs, simplicity, flexibility, … Distributed management across multiple departments and organizations Large numbers of PC-based applications PC-based clients and servers, Unix, Linux, ... Cloud (Grid/Utility) Computing: 2000 – New consumption and delivery model Optimized for massive scalability, delivery of services, … Centralized model, hybrid service acquisition models Supports huge numbers of mobile devices and sensors Internet technology-based architecture Just like the introduction of the Client/Server model impacted almost everything we did in IT (operating IT, developing applications, …), Cloud computing is having significant impact on the IT industry

Tivoli Service Automation Manager Components

Self Service Portal Single interface to ... Request Cloud assets from the Service Catalog View status of existing requests List all provisioned assets Manage workflow approvals you are responsible for

Scheduling Users can see what resources are available in the service catalog, request the services they need, when they need them, for the time they need them Reservation of resources to allow deployments to be scheduled for a future date to simplify deployment

Workflow Powerful web-based workflow tool built on ITIL best practices. Ensures Cloud service requests meet all approvals (Program Mgt, Security, Export Control, etc.)

Provisioning Robust provisioning engine that supports Hypervisors VMWare Xen KVM phype (AIX OS) zVM (Z/OS) And upgradeable to Bare Metal Provisioning Windows XP/Vista/2003/2008 SUSE ES RedHat ES Sun Solaris

Monitoring Unified monitoring and management of Hardware in the resource pool running VMs The VM operating systems themselves All VMs are provisioned with pre-integrated monitoring agents Single Enterprise Service Mgt view across the Cloud Trend projection capabilities to forecast performance issues before they occur

Metering Consumption-Based Accounting Final step in the service lifecycle is Termination Without a “charge-back” approach however there is no incentive to release resources Determine metric to meter and the “cost” per unit Virtual CPU/Hour, Memory Usage, KB Read-Written, Even energy used Capture usage metrics and evaluate at Governance Boards Determine thresholds for environment termination steps
