The HP Converged Infrastructure provides the most comprehensive solution for our customers based on their goals for improving data center efficiencies to meet current and future business demands.Whether our customers are looking to drive improvements in their current legacy systems, with traditional systems and applications, or if they’re moving to incorporate the Cloud into their infrastructure, the HP Converged Infrastructure will enable that transformation. You need some form of shared infrastructure to enable a cloud environment, whether that’s in a private, public or hybrid cloud environment.And finally, our Performance Optimized Data Center – or what we call a POD is also available to help customers either expand their current data center or acquire a new data center from the ground up at a significantly reduced cost and time to market. And our demand for PODs is growing significantly, we’ve just approved new investment in manufacturing PODs, we can’t seem to build them fast enough!
Let’s look at the current evolution of service delivery…and HP’s view on the right hybrid delivery approach.First, a business service is what delivers value to an end-user. This service is a self-contained, full model unit including information, application & infrastructure. It’s a model that IT is very familiar with. In the traditional IT world, the service model is tightly coupled to the deployment model (data center)….dedicated, physical, homogeneous…and lacks flexibility. It’s served it’s purpose in the past as speed, agility and cost gave way to performance & security.Now what we’re seeing evolve in the market place with currently evolving hybrid delivery solutions is not much different than what we’ve fundamentally seen in the traditional data center…i.e. the service model is tightly bound to the unique characteristics of the underlying deployment model. The cause…disparate architectures, different management & security, and inconsistent development frameworks & tools for developers across the various models means that each service will require 4 separate deployment models - one for traditional, one for private cloud, one for managed clouds and one for the public cloud. This is problematic on a number of fronts. It is cumbersome for the developer and limiting from a deployment option standpoint. It does not allow a single service to travel between deployment models based on policies and changing business requirements. Instead, because four separate service model-deployment model combinations must be maintained, the environment becomes much more complex and change resistant.The future model one needs to embrace is where the service model is loosely-coupled with the deployment model. This means that the service “binds” to the deployment model at execution time with no modification to the service required. You have a single service that can travel across traditional, private, managed and public cloud environments based on the need at that moment. This hybrid environment (across traditional, private, managed and public cloud) is built on an open and standards based common architecture, converged management & security across all deployment models, enables the means to “develop once and run anywhere”, and provides the flexibility and portability that delivers the “Services Anywhere” promise.
