9 What is a Hybrid Cloud? A Hybrid Cloud is the combination of two or more cloud implementations, with different capabilities, user and administrator user interfaces, and control mechanisms. IBM s point of view is that the future will be a hybrid world of traditional IT, private and public clouds that enables composable business. This will be a dynamic cloud environment, one that is constantly adapting to meet new requirements. Typical examples: Two different On Premises / Private Cloud implementations IBM System z and VMware, both on premise Two different Public Clouds IBM SoftLayer and Amazon Web Services Public Cloud and On Premises / Private Cloud IBM SoftLayer and on premise System z Hybrid

10 Pros and Cons of Cloud Deployment Model Cloud Type Public Multi-tenant environment where compute resources are purchased in desired increments Private Internally owned, deployed and controlled compute resources Hybrid Uses a mix of private, dedicated IT resources in conjunction with public infrastructure 10 Pros Cons Flexible Low cost of entry Rapid deployment Scalable Wide availability of vendors Security of data Data residency Control DR Regulatory issues SLA Control Security DR Data ownership Ability to tune Time to implement Silo d approach Acquisition cost Staffing Planning Best of both Fit workload for cost and performance Can be single point of control Initial configuration Network latency Creating controls Management is complex

19 Hybrid Clouds can Solve a Variety of Needs for Business and IT

20 What are Some Common Challenges in Implementing a Hybrid Cloud Solution? Common administration and management across platforms: Cross platform, cross hypervisor virtualization and management Integrated systems management Easily deployed patterns of expertise that can be used everywhere Ways to move and synchronize assets and resources between clouds: For example: Images Patterns Applications Application data and databases Meta data about applications Credentials Hybrid

21 Hybrid Cloud Implementations have Special Data Requirements and Challenges Private cloud and traditional IT Public cloud Hybrid Cloud Data can be accessed remotely, copied, moved, merged, or synchronized depending on application requirements Dynamic workload placement/management may require large scale movement of VM images, application data, and configuration information Diversity in network bandwidths complicate planning Distance adds latency

22 Cloud Inhibitor #1: Security Concerns Security remains #1 inhibitor to broad scale cloud adoption 2012 Cloud Computing Key Trends and Future Effects IDG

23 Cloud environments present new security challenges We have control It's located at 'x' It's stored in servers 'y', 'z' We have backups in place Our admins control access Our uptime is sufficient The auditors are happy Our security team is engaged Who has control? Where is it located? where is it stored? Who backs it up? Who has access? How resilient is it? How do auditors observe? How is our security team engaged?

24 Cloud Security Concerns Main challenges regarding Security in the Cloud Computing are: obvious: data security data privacy access management vulnerability management not so obvious: export regulations exit-management (what happens to your data when you leave your cloud service provider?) MSP/CSP discontinuance/closure of business German Federal Office for Information Security: Security Recommendations for Cloud Computing Providers Further risks that are specific to the virtualized environment are discussed in the virtualization guidelines from PCI Security Standards Council: Information Supplement: PCI DSS Virtualization Guidelines Hybrid Cloud Computing in E-Governance: Related Security Risks and Solutions Hybrid

25 Different Cloud deployment models change the way we think about security Private cloud On or off premises cloud infrastructure operated solely for an organization and managed by the organization or a third party Hybrid IT Public cloud Traditional IT and clouds (public and/or private) that remain separate but are bound together by technology that enables data and application portability Available to the general public or a large industry group and owned by an organization selling cloud services. Changes in Security and Privacy Customer responsibility for infrastructure Provider responsibility for infrastructure More customization of security controls Less customization of security controls Good visibility into day-to-day operations No visibility into day-to-day operations Easy to access to logs and policies Difficult to access to logs and policies Applications and data remain inside the firewall Applications and data are publically exposed

26 IBM Takes Action to Improve Cloud Security Tackling the five types of security issues of Hybrid Cloud: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) User and identity security Data and information security Application security Network security Physical infrastructure security IBM is using its expertise to outline a two-pronged approach to improve cloud security: IBM Cloud Security Infrastructure and Services 1. Plan and Assess the Security Strategy for the Cloud - IBM Cloud Security Strategy Roadmap - IBM Cloud Security Assessment - IBM Application Security Services for Cloud 2. Obtain Security Services from the Cloud - IBM Managed Security Services Hosted Security Event and Log Management - IBM Managed Security Services Hosted Vulnerability Management Furthermore we provide a best practice guidance for implementing cloud security: "IBM Cloud Security Guidance" (IBM Security Framework) IBM Redpaper REDP-4614, Oct IBM Takes Action to Improve Cloud Security Hybrid

66 What is a Pattern? A pattern describes infrastructure and application components required to deliver a Cloud Service A pattern is a single point of control to deploy, manage and scale a Cloud Service Examples for pattern components are definitions of network/storage elements, image, software binaries, install scripts, chef recipes etc. Also known across the industry as: Templates Heat/HOT, Amazon CloudFormation ServerTemplate Rightscale Stack Rackspace, Amazon CFN (for a template instance) Think about Patterns as WhiteBox PaaS, where you get insights into all components being deployed, e.g. definition of application topology, including scaling. Applications built on PaaS offerings like BlueMix are BlackBox PaaS, where you do not get any insights in the underlying infrastructure/middleware topology.
