80-90 of early clouds are built with open source
infrastructures"Through 2013, 90 of
market-leading, cloud-computing providers will
depend on OSS to deliver products and services."
Gartner, December 2008Open source technologies
are assumedto be in the cloud infrastructure
from the start
4
Why Open Source Software for the cloud?

• This is how we started
• No more lock from a proprietary vendor
• OSS is well understood
• Technology
• Business
• In the cloud, we care less about the OS
• Easier to migrate legacy code
• Watch out for the Black Hole!!!

Red Hat Cloud Foundation Offerings
Red Hat's existing offerings, including RHEL,
JBoss, RHEV, MRG, and Satellite, provide the
framework for internal private cloud customers
today.
6
Private Clouds
Public Clouds
Red Hat's cloud foundation technologies, will be
used to power corporate private clouds as well as
enable public providers such as Amazon with
scalable, standardized infrastructure. Customers
will have a common base for both internal and
external clouds deployments
7
Common Cloud Questions

• Enables an Ecosystem of Public Cloud Providers
• Cloud computing is a hot topic, but many people
  have important questions and challenges they need
  addressed before they can adopt cloud
• How do I build an internal cloud?
• How do I avoid lock-in to a single cloud?
• How do I mix, match, and blend different cloud?
• resourcesincluding internal and external clouds?
• How do I manage a variety of applications and
  groups with different SLAs, priorities, and
  resource requirements across clouds?
• How do I manage and track cloud resources?

KVM Main Features

• Its is small 30K lines of code
• Reuse of the open source community
• Development
• Testing
• Accepted by the kernel maintainers in record time
• Leverages Linux scheduler, memory management etc.
  
• Advanced power management features
• Leverages Intel VT-x and AMD-V silicon extensions
• Current guests supported Windows XP, Vista,
  Linux, Solaris, FreeBSD, etc.
• New platforms in process PPC (IBM), S390 (IBM)
  and IA64 (Intel)

HIGH PERFORMANCE, SCALABLE, SECURE HYPERVISOR

• Small Footprint lt100 MB
• Scalable Host (96 cores, 1 TB RAM), guest
  (16vCPU, 64 GB RAM)
• High Performance Leading performance for
  real-world enterprise applications
• Secure Includes SELinux
• Advanced Features Memory page sharing, NIC
  bonding, multipath I/O, power management, etc.

Hypervisors are evolving

• Hypervisors are looking more like OS
• Memory Manager, Scheduler, Drivers
• Power management
• More is expected from Hypervisros
• Drivers, MMU
• If it looks like an OS, quacks like an OS, it is
  an OS
• Commoditization
• HW support
• Open source
• A feature of the OS
• Virtualization is going everywhere
• However, some application will still run physical
• Hybrid (physical and virtual) infrastructure
  support is required.

MRG Grid is Based on Condor

• MRG Grid is based on the Condor Project created
  and hosted by the University of Wisconsin,
  Madison
• Condor has a gt20-year history and runs many of
  the largest grids in the world
• Red Hat and the University of Wisconsin have
  signed a strategic partnership around Condor
• University of Wisconsin makes Condor source code
  available under OSI-approved open source license
• Red Hat University of Wisconsin jointly fund
  and staff Condor development on-campus at the
  University of Wisconsin
• Red Hat and the University of Wisconsin's
  partnership will
• Add enhanced enterprise features, management, and
  supportability to Condor and MRG Grid
• Add High Throughput Computing capabilities to
  Linux

18
Building Clouds with MRG

• Scalable Virtualization
• Schedule VMs directly as jobs via libvirt
• Provision VMs via Red Hat Enterprise
  Virtualization
• Inject jobs into VMs
• Resource Accounting
• Track resources via Condor's resource accounting
• SLA's
• Apply priorities and policies
• Apply security Authentication (e.g. SSL, ),
  Integrity, Encryption

• Powerful Policies
• VMs run multiple concurrent instances, start on
  Black Friday or semi-monthly, re-run after fault
• Machines only run VMs from owners group
  between 9 and 5, everyone else has a low priority
  shot from 5 to 9
• Global control limiters (e.g. NFS mount users,
  licenses),
• Various Cloud Services
• IaaS clouds run all workloads as VMs
• PaaS clouds leverage job scheduling with VM
  scheduling

19

• Red Hat Deltacloud provides cloud
  interoperability and prevents cloud lock-in
• Free and Open Source API for IaaS Cloud
  Management
• Plugin drivers for various cloud providers (EC2,
  RHEV-M, VMWare, Rackspace, etc)
• Web UI Portal for consolidated cloud management
  and monitoring
• Deltacloud enables you to have both
  infrastructure elasticity and choice with no
  tradeoffs in cloud computing
• Switch internal cloud providers (e.g. VMWare to
  RHEV) like you can with hardware providers
• Use various cloud providersboth internal and
  externalsimultaneously from the same tools
  regardless of how they're implemented
• Red Hat products like Red Hat Enterprise MRG will
  leverage Deltacloud to provide enhanced
  cross-cloud orchestration

20
Deltacloud in Action
Deltacloud drivers for different cloud
implementations map Deltacloud API's to Cloud
API's
Deltacloud provides a comprehensive REST API for
cloud functionality
Your management tools talk to Deltacloud's API

Red Hat Certified Cloud Provider Program

• Enables an Ecosystem of Public Cloud Providers
• Provides both technologies and programs for
  Public Cloud providers for RHEL and Jboss
• Partners collaborate with Red Hat on technical
  support, security updates, hardware
  certification, sales and marketing, and business
  models
• Customers receive
• Compatibility of technology and support across
  multiple cloud providers
• Assurances that Certified Cloud providers are
  competent and partnered with Red Hat and
  enterprise-grade

Aggregating and Bridging Clouds with MRG

• MRG includes the ability to schedule jobs and
  applications to multiple clouds, based on policy
• MRG has the ability to send VMs to other resource
  managers
• MRG becomes the unified interface to many types
  of resources internal VM resources and multiple
  external clouds
• MRG's life-cycle management, accounting and
  policy benefits still available
• Use cases include
• Manage overflow/spillover
• Access to specialized resource managers
• Transformation between VM types/systems
• Allow a single app/stack to bridge multiple clouds
