4. Experiment Secure the Cloud Enable Servers, Enable SaaS Enable Value-Added Services Enable Unique Services Mandate Cloud Usage 4 Confidential ©2008-15 New Relic, Inc. All rights reserved. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Standard steps most companies follow
5. Enterprise IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Experiment § Non-evasive, safe technologies - S3 - Perhaps: CloudFront, SQS, SES § Stay away from EC2/Servers § Security: Easy as one-offs § No “Policies” implemented yet § “Just seeing what this is all about” Progressions in Cloud Adoption
6. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Enterprise IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Secure the Cloud § IAM (Credentials) § VPC (Secure network) § AWS Direct Connect (just another data center) § Cloud policies begin to be formed § Critical evolution point
7. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Enterprise IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Enable Servers, Enable SaaS § EC2 - Basic “data center migration” - Just another server type available… § Multiple AZs/Regions - Part of multi-datacenter resiliency strategy § Independently: SaaS usage increases - Non-critical or internal uses first
8. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Enterprise IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Enable Value-Added Services § Managed Databases - RDS, Aurora § Other Managed Services - Elastic Beanstalk, SES, SQS, ElasticSearch
9. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Enterprise IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Enable Unique Services § High value, Cloud-specific services - Lambda, Kinesis - SWF, Elastic Transcoder - Redshift § Point of commitment... ...dependent on cloud
10. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Enterprise IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Mandate Cloud Usage § Cloud as a data center replacement § Company is now “all in” with cloud § Netflix…

14. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Application IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Peripheral Usage § S3 - Large file storage - Hosting file downloads § CloudFront…
15. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Application IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Cloud Servers § EC2 as a server choice - Data center migration - Often done when apps need a hardware refresh - Redundant data center § Application doesn’t change, just where it runs
16. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Application IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Managed Components § RDS for databases § ElastiCache, SES, ELB § Elastic Beanstalk § More DevOps issue than Application
17. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Application IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Unique Components § DynamoDB § ElasticSearch § SNS, SWF § Application is distinctly changing - Rewritten for the cloud
18. Progressions in Cloud Adoption Application IT Cloud Adoption Strategy Application Cloud Committed § Lambda § Data Pipeline § Kinesis § Machine Learning § Using cloud-unique capabilities - Cloud provider specific - Close tie to specific cloud provider
19. Cloud Adoption Strategies Application Cloud Adoption Strategy § Peripheral Usage § Cloud Servers § Managed Components § Unique Components § Application Cloud Committed Enterprise IT Cloud Adoption Strategy § Experiment § Secure the Cloud § Enable Servers, Enable SaaS § Enable Value-Added Services § Enable Unique Services § Mandate Cloud Usage

26. Adoption Success Strategies Understand where your culture is Consciously plan your acceptance Drive your cultural change to your desired level Monitor your adoption Understand your needs
27. Monitor Your Adoption Before Migration Baseline application (servers, databases, caches, applications, microservices) Determine your steady state
28. Monitor Your Adoption During Migration Incorporate cloud’s internal monitoring Continue application monitoring
29. The Biggest Role Monitoring Plays In Migration Performance Post Migration & During Optimization Pre-migration Feasibility & Benchmarking
30. Continue Monitoring… Infrastructure is now out of your control Some cloud specific concerns (EC2 instance failures, instance degradation) Understand application impact Ongoing application & infrastructure monitoring is essential Monitor Your Adoption
31. What should you monitor? Cloud Monitoring 31 Confidential ©2008-15 New Relic, Inc. All rights reserved.
