CTS Private Cloud Status Quarterly Customer Meeting October 22, 2014
Private Cloud Service Strategy Transform the current CTS virtual server service into an automated service offering comparable to commercial public cloud providers. On-demand self-service portal Capability to automatically provision, de-provision, archive compute resources Secure multi-tenant infrastructure with complete business unit isolation Role based access control Templates to support specific use cases Automated billing processes 2
CTS Private Cloud Benefits Benefits Self-service provisioning reduces the time to deploy new servers and services for customers Access to State Networks Access to Enterprise Active Directory Infrastructure in a nearby highly secured Data Center Constant monitoring of infrastructure for security threats Localized control
Future Cloud Features Infrastructure As A Service (IaaS+) Add Non-Windows Operating System (OS) Templates Provide Database and Other Server Type Templates Integrated Anti-Virus Virtual Firewalls Application Load Balancing Integrated Backup Disaster Recovery 4
Initial Service Options Resource Allocation Models No resources are allocated up front. All resources are allocated per workload. This service offering lends itself to quick-start pilot projects or test and development application workloads that typically do not require persistent resource commitments or upfront resource reservations. Basic Pay-as-you-go VM Instances 100% of resources are reservation-guaranteed. Based on the Reservation Virtual Data Center (VDC) Pool allocation model. This service offering provides consumers reserved resource capacity up front, fully dedicated by individual tenant. The level of resource guarantee (always set to 100%) provides customers with a high degree of service assurance plus resource control for their application workloads. Dedicated VDC Pool 6
