In this presentation, held at Cloud Camp Hamburg, Matt Rechenburg CEO of openQRM Enterprise describes how the cloud features of openQRM can help sysop's to manage their datacanter in an efficient, time and power consumption saving way.

1. My name: Matt Rechenburg
My function: Project Manager of openQRM
My business: CEO openQRM Enterprise
My goal: Efficient (Cloud-) Computing
… in short about myself

2. Cloud
Computing ?
Grid Computing
Utility Computing
Virtualization
Automated deployment
Distributed computing
SAAS

3. OpenQRM
=
Complete Datacenter Management
… including Cloud Computing, rapid Deployment, automated
monitoring, high-availability for all services, support for multiple
Virtualization and Storage Technologies, an open and fully
documented API, centralized backup/restore, transparent
P2V/V2P/V2V migration, support for private/public/hybrid Cloud
Computing, automated Power-Management and more.
All that of course fully open-source avoiding Vendor Locking !

4. So how to save money
with Cloud Computing now ?

5. Let's have a look at modern Datacenters ...
Datacenter providing Services.
Datacenter have different Requirements.
Running a Datacenter Costs money.

6. Physical Datacenter Requirements
➔ Datacenter require physical space
➔ Datacenter consists of physical server
➔ Physical server consuming power
➔ Physical server consuming climate
All those requirements scaling up linear by the
number of physical Server.

7. Service Requirements
➔ Installation of new Server
➔ Configuration of Services
➔ Network Administration
➔ High-Availability
➔ Monitoring
➔ Backup/Restore
➔ Updates
➔ ...
All those requirements normally require lot of
man (sysadmin) power and are scaling up
exponential by the number of managed systems.

8. Systemadministrators are the
bottleneck in large Datacenters

9. So let's just move
”everything” into a Cloud!

10. But wait a moment …
… isn't a Cloud not just part of a Datacenter ?

11. OpenQRM is MUCH more than just a Cloud !
Some unique facts about openQRM:
You can use openQRM to ”deploy” other Cloud Systems via the openQRM Cloud!
You can deploy physical machines via the openQRM Cloud!
Cloud Appliances requested by the Users can of course be HA!
OpenQRM Cloud supports all mainstream Virtualization Technologies!
OpenQRM's ”N-to-1” Fail-over saves 90% of your idle stand-by Server.
Integrated automated Power-Management automatically scales the openQRM Cloud!
Integrated Cloud-Billing System makes charging easy!
With openQRM you have a complete overview about your Datacenter!
OpenQRM provides an open API which makes integration into existing processes easy!
OpenQRM is fully open-source and helps to avoid Vendor Locking!

12. So how to save money now ?

13. Automate your complete Infra-structure!
This saves your sysadmin time.

14. Make the sysadmins more efficient!
Provides more sysadmin time.

15. Use CloudComputing when it makes sense!
Does not consume sysadmin time.
QA
Development
Production with
workload-peaks

16. Use ”intellegent” HA to save hot-standby's.
Directly saves power costs.
”N to 1” fail-over
Production Stand-by

17. Use power management to power off
unused resources in your DC automatically!
Directly saves power costs.
