3. Agenda
• What exactly is a Cloud?
• Why do I need the Cloud and how will it change my
life?
• Isn’t Cloud the same old technology?
• How does Cloud affect the cost structure of my
business?
• Does Oracle have Reference Architecture for Cloud?
• What are the key capabilities of a Cloud
infrastructure?
• Do you have any Cloud use cases/patterns?
• How can Oracle help me build my Cloud?

4. What exactly is a Cloud?

5. NIST Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-
demand network access to a shared pool of configurable
computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage,
applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned
and released with minimal management effort or service
provider interaction.
5 Essential Characteristics 3 Service Models 4 Deployment Models
• On-demand self-service • SaaS • Public Cloud
• Resource pooling • PaaS • Private Cloud
• Rapid elasticity • IaaS • Community Cloud
• Measured service • Hybrid Cloud
• Broad network access
Source: NIST Definition of Cloud Computing v15

6. Definition of “Cloud Service”
Cloud services are self-contained units of functionality or IT
capability offered through cloud computing to its consumers.
Cloud service offerings range from managed units of
computing infrastructure (such as storage) through
platforms (database, web containers, etc.) all the way to
complete software solutions (e.g. finance, HR, etc)
• Cloud Services don’t refer to
• SOA Services
• Web Services
• Helpdesk Services
• …

7. Why do I need the Cloud and how will it
change my life?

8. Key Drivers

Cost Efficiency
Infrastructure Currency, Infrastructure Outsourcing, Automation

9. Deploying Applications in Traditional
Environments
1 to 2 Months
1-5 Weeks 1-2 days 1-5 days 1-5 days 1-2 days Start
• Manual, Error Prone, Non-repeatable

10. Deploying Applications in Virtual
Environments
1 to 2 weeks
1-5 days 1-2 days 1-5 days 1 day 1-2 days Start
• Faster but still - Manual, Error Prone, Non-repeatable

13. Let’s look at the definition again!

29. Do you have any Cloud use cases/patterns?

30. Hybrid Cloud Use Cases
Lifecycle distribution
Dev/test cloud It is common when ‘Hybrid’ is
the Common one mentioned to think of …
• Simple Dev/test or
• Complicated Cloud scaling
• also consider functional
distribution architecture
Functional distribution
Workload distribution Public & private services
‘Cloud bursting’ a Likely one
the Hard one
