18. Deployment Options
• New Implementation vs Migration
New Implementation Migration from On-Premise
No legacy infrastructure Legacy systems and on premise
dependencies require additional work.
Clean implementation using optimal
infrastructure
Restrictions can be imposed by legacy
setup and configuration
Built using current best practices Migrate to current best practices as
feasible.
Faster time to go-live system can be stood
up within 24 hours.
Longer timeline due to data migration
19. • Create a Replica of your on-site environment in the AWS Cloud
• Environment will be setup using YOUR Infrastructure Elements
AWS Instance type (Start small and scale-up based on performance/user needs)
OS’s (Unix, Linux, Microsoft)
Databases Supported (Oracle, DB2, MS SQL Server)
Supports PeopleSoft FSCM, HCM, ELM, EPM, Portal
• Allows your team to experiment with the AWS Cloud and validate
assumptions and feasibility.
PeopleSoft on AWS Proof of Concept Service
20. Approach to Moving to AWS
• Setup VPC
• Create Foundational infrastructure (Web, App, Proc, DB Servers)
• Copy Database Into AWS
• Complete Configuration
• Test Environment and Application
• Test Move to Production (2 Iterations Min)
• Move to Production
• Total Time to Deploy – 6-12 Weeks
Project Overview
21. • Migration of Large Databases (Timing)
• Customizations
• Connection to On-Premise Resources (i.e. LDAP, File Servers)
• Availability of Testing Team
Migration Challenges
22. • Environments can be provisioned on demand
• Reduce time to implementation
• Reduces complexity of technical environment
• Provides for ability to experiment with different scenarios with
minimal impact to your internal infrastructure
• Disk Space is available on demand as you grow
• Disaster Recovery is built into the infrastructure Design
• Standardized Infrastructure
• Scale up or Down based on Business needs.
• Repeatability of Deployments.
Benefits of Amazon Web Services
23. Things to Think about
• Always Setup VPC First
• RDS / EBS Volumes for Data Storage
• Think about Ports / Security Required to access applications /
printers, etc
• Think about other Applications that are required by your PeopleSoft
systems (Active Directory, etc)
24. • Provides 5 hours of PeopleSoft Running on AWS for FREE
• Guided walkthroughs for HCM, FSCM
• Environment used includes the following elements
M1 Medium AWS Instance
Microsoft Server Data Center Edition
MS SQL Server 2008
PeopleSoft 9.1 Feature Pack 2
• Provisioned in minutes
PeopleSoft Test Drive Lab
27. Overview of Company – Size of Organization
and Brief History
• Select Staffing is one of the 10 largest staffing companies in the
United States
• Over 400 offices across the country
• In business for over 20 years
• Based out of Santa Barbara, CA
28. Primary Reasons / Goals for Move to AWS.
Challenges
• internal infrastructure and
resources
• DR & Failover solution
• Cost of provisioning additional
infrastructure and internal
support
Goal
• Stable infrastructure
• Dynamic resource
provisioning
• Cost-effective
29. Major challenges with moving to AWS
• Upgrade challenges
• Oracle 10g to Oracle 11g
• Data transfer for go-live cut over
• 1.2 TB & 1 TB DB’s migrated over to AWS
• Required the use of Replication Software
30. Performance of AWS compared to your existing
environment.
• Ability to size the environment accordingly
• Ability to experiment with various configurations to minimize costs.
• Can size each component to its relevant scale
• Web Servers can be provisioned on Small Instances
• App / Process Scheduler Servers can be of various sizes to
manage the workload they are utilized for.
31. Key benefits gained by moving to AWS
• Greater visibility of costs and resource allocation
• Scalability without capital expenditures
• Test/QA flexibility
