11 Azure services everywhere

12 Dell EMC Cloud for Microsoft Azure Stack Key design principles Software Support Hardware Services Integrated system Closed system Hyper-converged Architecture, hardware and topology Deployment, configuration, provisioning Validation Monitoring, diagnostics Scale out building blocks Security and privacy Business continuity Patching and updating Field replacement of parts Azure consistent management No System Center 12

13 Hybrid Design Patterns

14 Foundational Patterns Requirement Promise Requirement Promise I need connectivity between resources in my on-prem environment and public cloud Azure I can build hybrid applications that have components in both Azure and Azure Stack I want to consolidate my CI/CD pipelines across my on-prem environment and the public cloud Azure I can change my deployment location without changing my application Example - Site to Site VPN/Express Route Hybrid CI/CD Pipeline Azure Stack Azure Stack 14

Test/Dev Scenarios I conduct my dev/test

Hybrid CI/CD Pipeline Azure Azure QA PROD

15 Test/Dev Scenarios I conduct my dev/test efforts where it is most practical without having to retool for public cloud deployments. Hybrid CI/CD Pipeline Azure Azure QA PROD Software Code CHOICE! Repository Infrastructure Code QA PROD Azure Stack Azure Stack 15

16 Cloud Burst Scenarios I can take advantage of the elasticity of the public cloud when I need to. Azure Hybrid CI/CD Pipeline Azure Stack 16

17 Geo-Distributed Scenarios I can direct users to the most suitable cloud for their needs. Azure Traffic Manager Azure Stack 17

18 Disconnected Scenarios I can run completely disconnected from the internet where required. Azure Stack 18

19 Live Migration of Workloads? Azure Stack is NOT intended to address this scenario Azure Stack Azure 19

34 Infrastructure Backup Controller Azure Stack separates infrastructure data from tenant data Tenants of Azure Stack are responsible for protecting their workloads and backing up data Infrastructure data from multiple internal services is backed up by Azure Stack using the Infrastructure Backup Controller service Backup Configuration Backup occurs periodically with no admin intervention and no downtime to the portal experience or APIs Backup data is stored to an external/off-stamp SMB file share Infrastructure backup is enabled at Azure Stack deployment time. A file share UNC path and credentials are required After deployment, backup can also be enabled using UI or APIs Note: Traditional backup using Microsoft Data Protection Manager and Hyper-V capabilities are not used by Infrastructure Backup Controller 35
