Multi-Cloud Exam Prep
Benefits of multi cloud
"best of breed" cloud services, standardize architecture (VMC - infrastructure, Tanzu - DevOps)
Cloud Operating Model - Vision
to transition to multi-cloud environment, an organization must move from siloed approach to an operating model that aligns with cloud services automatically delivered to those who consume - app developers and the application owners for each LOB IT delivers services while maintaining control of environment
Multi-cloud transformation
embrace microservices and developer experience accelerate path to new and modernized apps to deliver business services quickly, securely and continuously redefine IT with cloud capabilities, modern architectures, and cloud operating model that spans all cloud locations
VMCloud - Benefits
fastest path to the cloud - leverages consistent infrastructure and HCX focused on app modernization and security across clouds, governance and operations Reduces TCO and increases ROI
Hybrid Cloud Computing - What Does it Offer
flexibility and speed to help businesses respond to changing needs and accelerate innovation managing and running application - maintain and expand, consolidate and migrate, reduce and eliminate
Why digital transformation?
improve customer experience, sustain growth and increase revenue, protect brand and decrease risk, decrease time to market and increase competitive advantage
Benefits of cloud computing
increased agility (access service anywhere), cost reductions (capex), increased innovation and developer productivity (managing IT)
VMW Cross-Cloud Services - Service offered
App platform Cloud infrastructure Cloud management security + networking digital workspace + edge
VMCloud - what is it?
infrastructure: VCF *can be in public cloud, colo, datacenter, or edge Management: vRealize *pulls together different infrastructure building blocks into a single view
On-prem cloud solutions - use cases
low latency requirements high sensitive data data sovereignty compliance and regulatory requirements processing data-sensitive workloads close to where data is generated
Hybrid Cloud Computing - Challenges
operational inconsistencies different skill set and tools disparate management tools and security controls inconsistent application SLAs incompatible machine formats
multi cloud adoption rate (%)
75% of customers have two or more clouds
Hybrid Cloud Computing - Common use cases
Disaster recovery datacenter extension cloud migrations next-gen applications
Multi-Cloud vision
Less about where you run apps - but how you deliver business innovations apps are built and deployed quickly and new capabilities continuously added deploy apps anywhere across distributed cloud and move apps freely to the best cloud
Hybrid Cloud Computing - Capabilities of VMC Cloud (AWS, Azure, Google)
Seamless migration (HCX) As-a-service model (on-demand consumption) consistent portable modern apps (K8s support)
Multi-Cloud Management - vRLI - Features
VMW authorized insights
How digital transformation?
app transformation, modern applications, operate across any cloud enterprise-level resiliency and operations
Cloud operating model - How
application strategy - what apps do you need to support the business? retain, rehost (migrate), replatform (K8s), refactor (containers), retire or replace (decomission) cloud strategy - define cloud resources for business outcomes financial strategy - manage investments, cost control
Multi-Cloud Management - vRA What it does
automates provisioning of VMs, Applications and services
Challeneges of cloud computing
avoiding siloed teams, managing resources across different clouds
Multi-Cloud Management - vRLI - What Does it Do
collects and analyzes logs for troubleshooting. cloud proxy receives log and event info from monitored sources and sends info to vRLI cloud where it is analyzed. OVA file - download and install as VM or AMI (amazon machine image) in EC2
Multi cloud challenges
complexity, decreased agility, higher costs, higher risks
