Three aspects of SDDC

What does this mean?
![Page 9: Preparing for the SDDC](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052410/5554d311b4c9051b6e8b4a80/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
“Every organization must be prepared to abandon everything it
does to survive the future. You cannot manage change, you can
only be ahead of it.”— Peter Drucker

1. Virtualization extends toall of IT.
![Page 11: Preparing for the SDDC](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052410/5554d311b4c9051b6e8b4a80/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Extend the results of virtualization to all aspects of IT
• Underlying mechanisms will be very different• Organizational challenges may lie ahead• This doesn't mean the virtualization admins have “won”
Virtualization extends toall of IT

“...If humility does not precede all that we do, our efforts are
fruitless.”— St. Augustine
![Page 14: Preparing for the SDDC](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052410/5554d311b4c9051b6e8b4a80/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• So what can we do?• Become familiar with the underlying mechanisms
• Compute: Hypervisors• Networking: SDN, NFV, network encapsulation protocols• Storage: Disk architectures, replication, latency
Virtualization extends toall of IT

2. IT management gives wayto automation.
![Page 16: Preparing for the SDDC](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052410/5554d311b4c9051b6e8b4a80/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Automation is more than just scripting or templates• It's the gateway to scale• Scale is about more than just size, it's also about effort
IT management gives wayto automation
![Page 17: Preparing for the SDDC](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052410/5554d311b4c9051b6e8b4a80/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

• So what can we do?• Give up the idea of "hand crafting" everything• Explore different aspects of automation
• Scripting: PowerShell, Perl, Python, shell• Configuration management: Puppet, Chef, Salt, Ansible• APIs: JSON, XML, HTTP REST• Combinations of technologies
IT management gives wayto automation

3. Compatible hybrid cloud is ubiquitous
![Page 20: Preparing for the SDDC](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052410/5554d311b4c9051b6e8b4a80/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• Compatible implies interoperable, not necessarily identical• Interoperability involves multiple aspects
• Management compatibility• Execution compatibility• Data compatibility
• Application awareness is critical—need to understand dependencies and relationships
Compatible hybrid cloud is ubiquitous

• So what can we do?• Educate yourself on “cloudy” technologies
• Differences between providers (vCHS, Amazon, GCE)• Differences between CMPs (vCAC, OpenStack, CloudStack)• Key architectures (object storage, stateless instances)
Compatible hybrid cloud is ubiquitous
