Apache CloudStack 4.3 adds support for clouds built using Microsoft Hyper-V, in addition to supporting VMware vSphere, Citrix XenServer, KVM, Oracle VM, Linux Containers and bare metal options. This deck covers the decision points impacting the design of CloudStack 4.3 clouds, and their relationship with hypervisor choices. Presented at Build a Cloud Day co-located with SCaLE 12x in February 2014.

- 3. Service Offerings ⹠Clearly define what you want to offer ᔠWhat types of applications ᔠWho has access, and who owns them ᔠWhat type of access ⹠Define how templates need to be managed ᔠOperating system support ᔠPatching requirements ⹠Define expectations around compliance and availability ᔠWho owns backup and monitoring © Citrix 2014.

- 4. Define Tenancy Requirements ⹠Department data local to department ᔠWhere is the application data stored ⹠Data and service isolation ᔠVM migration and host HA ᔠNetwork services ⹠Encryption of PII/PCI ᔠWhere do keys live when data location unknown ᔠNeed encryption designed for the cloud ⹠Showback to stakeholders ᔠMore than just usage, compliance and audits © Citrix 2014.

Virtualization Infrastructure âą Hypervisor defined by service offerings á” á” á” á” Donât select hypervisor based on âstandardsâ Understand true costs of virtualization Multiple hypervisors are âOKâ Bare metal can be a hypervisor âą To âPoolâ resources or not á” Is there a real requirement for pooled resources á” Can the cloud management solution do better? á” Real cost of shared storage âą Primary storage defined by hypervisor âą Template storage defined by solution á” Typically low cost options like NFS © Citrix 2014.
