IDENTITY

22 22

IDENTITY

Regardless of your intended use of the cloud, identity is always the first thing that you

need to figure out when moving to the cloud.

Cornerstone to the Cloud

23 23

IDENTITY

Active Directory Options

On-Premises

VM w/ AD on Azure IaaS

24 24

IDENTITY

Business drivers

Support pre-requisites for other Applications or Services

Serve as substitute or failover for branch-office/HQ domain controllers

Serve as primary authentication for cloud only data center

Why Active Directory on WAIS?

25 25

IDENTITY

Is it safe to virtualize DCs?

Placement of the Active Directory database (DIT)

Optimizing your deployment for traffic and cost

Read-Only DCs (RODC) or Read-Writes?

Global Catalog or not?

Trust or Replicate?

IP addressing and name resolution

Geo-distributed cloud-hosted DCs

Considerations

DISASTER RECOVERY

30 30

DISASTER RECOVERY

Design for Failure => Cloud Outages Happen

Compose with the proper building blocks

Infrastructure abstractions

Automation

Architectural options to mitigate failure

Fault tolerance

Design incorporating redundancy and replication

High availability

Disaster recovery

Considerations

31 31

DISASTER RECOVERY

Disaster recovery is about preparing for and recovering from a disaster. Hardware or software

Network or power outage

Physical damage to a building

Human error

… or something else!

Invest time and resources to plan, prepare, rehearse, document, train, and update processes to deal with events.

Continual process of analysis and improvement

What is Disaster Recovery?

32

DISASTER RECOVERY

SLAs

99% availability = 3.65 days of downtime

99.5% = 1.83 days of downtime

99.9% = 8.76 hours of downtime

99.95% = 4.38 hours of downtime

99.99% = 53 minutes of downtime

99.999% = 5.26 minutes of downtime

Compounding SLAs

Windows Azure Compute (2

instances) = 99.95%

SQL Azure = 99.9%

Windows Azure Storage = 99.9%

Total SLA

4.38 hours + 8.76 hours + 8.76

hours

21.9 hours

Target: 99.75%

33 33

DISASTER RECOVERY

Options

34

DISASTER RECOVER: COLD

Only provisioned

environment is

primary.

Not good if rapid

recovery is required.

Slow to replicate

data to other cloud.

Slow to bring

database to an

operational state.

35

DISASTER RECOVERY: WARM

Database replicated in secondary but all traffic going to primary.

Generally a recommended DR solution

Minimal additional cost

Allows fairly rapid recovery

36

DISASTER RECOVER: HOT

Parallel deployment with all servers running but all traffic going to primary.

Atypical. Very high additional cost.

Allows rapid recovery but not significantly faster than “warm” configuration.

37

DISASTER RECOVERY: HIGHLY AVAILABLE

Live/Live configuration. May use geo-targeting services to direct traffic to regional load balancers.

Possible, but costly.

Provides high availability, but complex to implement and manage.

38

DEVELOPMENT & TEST

39 39

DEVELOPMENT & TEST

True cloud economics. Pay by the minute.

No hardware to purchase.

No staff to configure the environment.

No floor space or energy costs.

Automation.

Agility

Deploy and configure environments in minutes.

No procurement.

Reduce capital expenditures and maintenance costs.

Optimize utilization of existing hardware.

Provisioned (and de-provisioned) as many machines as you need in minutes.

Global footprint and access.

Opportunities

40 40

DEVELOPMENT & TEST

Create a development and test sandbox in minutes.

Develop Windows Server or Linux applications on Virtual Machines.

Script to completely automate deployment.

Test load or scalability.

Accelerate SharePoint or SQL development.

Connect securely from anywhere.

Upload your virtual hard disk.

Advantages to Cloud
