4 Key Takeaways Accurate picture of the current state of the Cloud Issues that customers have experienced What ques;ons should you ask about Tier 1 workloads in the Cloud? What are the best prac;ce answers to the ques;ons about the Cloud?

5 Definitions - Cloud

6 Cloud is Real!

7 Cloud Offerings

8 Recent History for Enterprise Applications VMware Onprem ?? Enterprise applica;ons on VMware have become best prac;ces for on-premises deployments SQL Server has been there longer than Oracle

9 Future for Enterprise Applications VMware Onprem ?? We are seeing strong push toward the cloud For enterprise apps, we are s;ll in the innovator/early adopter phase There is a chasm to cross Public Cloud

10 Cloud Chasm for Enterprise Applications These are the same barriers we encountered when House of Brick helped the industry cross the Enterprise App on VMware chasm Licensing is now the biggest concern on VMware In the Cloud, licensing is also (appropriately) one of the biggest concerns Licensing Performance Cloud Adop;on Barriers Support

11 Pros & Cons of Major Cloud Providers Cloud Provider Pros for Enterprise Cons for Enterprise Amazon AWS Microsod Azure Google Worldwide cloud leader Elas;c, flexible VMware supported Mul;ple op;ons for enterprise licensing Dedicated and bare metal host op;ons Oracle & SQL Server Elas;c, flexible Integrated opera;ons with on-prem MS Support for Oracle & Linux Elas;c, and flexible Large and growing cloud investment More room to grow Some;mes complicated licensing for enterprise apps Cost penalty for Oracle using their Cloud Policy Higher than recommended core counts for Oracle deployments Not VMware supported Difficult licensing for Oracle Cost penalty for Oracle using their Cloud Policy Very limited Oracle license op;ons Limited flexibility for dedicated/bare metal hosts Not VMware supported Oracle Can bundle with other Oracle purchases and nego;ate discounts Single support contact for all Oracle products Oracle only (no SQL Server) No/limited elas;city Largely hardware based Not VMware supported

12 Cloud Providers

13 Examples of SaaS Sodware as a Service (SaaS) NetSuite Salesforce Workday Sage Per Gartner 90% of businesses es;mated to use cloud services in 2016

14 What s Keeping Tier 1 Out of the Cloud? Customers are deploying real solu;ons (that aren t just vendor marke;ng). Why public cloud is not being RAPIDLY adopted for Tier 1 workloads? a) Security Compliance b) Migra;on and SLAs c) Licensing d) When is it working?

15 Poll: Where Do Your Apps Run? Where do you have your Tier 1 applica2ons running today? A: Private Cloud Only B: Public Cloud Only C: Hybrid Cloud

16 Why Should I Consider the Cloud? Considera;ons for going to the Cloud: Faster ;me to market Rapid scalability Less opera;onal cost as the applica;on moves closer to IaaS, PaaS and SaaS Moving from CAPEX to OPEX changing the cos;ng model

17 Do Cloud Predictions Match Real World?

18 Oracle Licensing for Google Cloud ULA is straighyorward, but check for non-standard clauses Otherwise, Google customers must deploy to a GCP environment that is compa;ble with Oracle hardware-based license agreements: Dedicated hosts (simplest, but not required) Discoverable core counts, processor-type, sockets, etc. Non-shared/Exclusive is preferable for performance Big/Monolithic VMs (1 per physical server) Ability to monitor or restrict automated movement of virtual machines Live migra;on may (or may not) require addi;onal licensing

19 Potential Cloud Catalyst Best Prac;ces Valida;on Performance hmps://

20 Cloud Checklist Clearly Define security compliance Responsibili;es between you and the provider Architect Cloud op;ons * Pilot Cloud thoroughly Establish SLAs before choosing a provider *Confirm licensing when architec;ng Cloud op;ons

21 Use Cases for the Cloud Successful Use Cases for Ini;al Deployments to the Cloud: DRaaS Emerging Technologies Legacy Applica;ons New Applica;ons

22 Getting into the Cloud Migra;on techniques for moving your applica;on to the Cloud: Key: Understand your SLA for the migra;on VMware Cloud on AWS (vmo;on) Cold copy Oracle Data Guard rsync Term licenses Leaving the Cloud

23 Case Study Catch-A-Dream grants once in a life;me outdoor adventures to children who have life threatening illnesses. Oracle instance previously hosted by nearby university needed to find new host Chose AWS as new host for Oracle Shows how the cloud can be a good op;on for small organiza;ons Addi;onal use cases
