Red Hat presented its cloud and infrastructure strategy, focusing on Red Hat Cloud Suite which includes OpenStack for the software platform, OpenShift for DevOps and containers, and CloudForms for cloud management. OpenStack provides massive scalability for infrastructure and removes vendor lock-in. OpenShift enables developers and operations to build, deploy, and manage containerized applications from development to production on any infrastructure including physical, virtual, private and public clouds. CloudForms allows for managing containers and OpenShift deployments across hybrid cloud environments.

• Red Hat Cloud Suite
• OpenStack – Software Platform for Cloud Computing
• OpenShift – DevOps and Containers Platform
• CloudForms – Cloud Management Platform
Agenda
3. Existing infrastructure is not designed to cope with the demand
l Data is too large
l We're producing vast amounts of unstructured data
l Scaling UP no longer works. Scaling OUT is a necessity
l
l Too many service requests
l More client devices coming online – Laptops, tablets, phones, watches, etc...
l New Application demand generation is here
l
l Applications and infrastructure were not designed for this level of demand
l Traditional capabilities are being exhausted
Why This Evolution?
4. ● Cloud sets up self provisioning infrastructure
● Hybrid Cloud allows unlimited elasticity (no constraints)
● Hybrid data model (sensitive aware) ensures privacy
● Programmable automation simplifies management
Market trends
5. RED HAT – CLOUD SUPPLIER
Red Hat offers us a cloud solution that can be integrated with our previous infrastructure, without the need
to demount what we already had in place to carry on moving ahead.

11. Different views
Tenant view Operator view
Limited by what the Operator decides to
offer
Combines configuration files and API actions to create a working
environment for his tenants.
12. OpenStack meets the demands of “scale-out” digital business
l Brings public cloud-like capabilities into your datacenter
l Provides massive on-demand (scale-out) capacity
l 1,000's → 10,000's → 100k's of VMs
l Removes vendor lock-in
l Open source provides high-degree of flexibility to customize and
interoperate
l Community development = higher “feature velocity”
l Features and functions you need, faster to market over
proprietary software
l Greater automation, resource provisioning, and scaling
OpenStack Powers Digital Business
17. ● Shift from monolithic applications to
microservices
● Independently deployable and
updatable, limited dependencies
● Optimized for agility & accelerated
time to market
17
Application Architecture
18. ● Enable efficiency and automation for
microservices, but also support
traditional applications
● Enable faster and more consistent
deployments from Development to
Production
● Enable application portability across 4
infrastructure footprints: Physical,
Virtual, Private & Public Cloud
Containers - An Evolution in Application Deployment
21. Built on Open Container Standards
Red Hat Driving These in the Community
docker kubernetes
22. CHALLENGE
“I need a secure and reliable platform
if I am ever going to run this from
Development to Production”

23. OpenShift vs. DIY Container Platform - Challenges
Support and manage your own Linux community distro or build
on existing RHEL or 3rd party commercial Linux offerings.
Pull Docker container runtime from rapidly moving upstream and
support, secure and maintain it yourself.
Pull Kubernetes or other orchestration (Mesos, Swarm) from
rapidly moving upstream & support / maintain yourself. Do all the
work required to integrate it into your enterprise IT environment
(networking, storage, registry, security, logging, metrics, etc.)
Take existing application build/CI & deployment tools and evolve
to add container image build & mgt., continuous deployment, etc.

● Build/Deploy workflows from
Dev to Production
● Integrated Jenkins 2 Pipeline
extensibility
● Real time status and
integrated metrics
27. CloudForms Container Management
Manage containers and
OpenShift across a hybrid
cloud environment
● Reports, metrics & alerts
● Container chargeback
● Vulnerability Scanning
37. Containers Chargeback
● Monetary charges reports based on Utilization
● Chargeback totals per Project (Namespace)
o CPU Cores usage
o Memory usage
o Network usage (when available)
