Making it REAL:IBM’s open cloud future
SoftLayer Bluemix Summit – Tokyo, September 2, 2015
In the beginning…
@blueboxjesse

A cloud was needed, but not any cloud…@blueboxjesse
Nova and Swift were the foundation…
solid, pretty reliable compute and object storage functional, small-scale networking via Nova-Network no deployment framework; not even Crowbar no dashboard; just a CLI no orchestration; just your own wits and ingenuity for automation no block storage
@blueboxjesse
How did the distrocome to be?
5
What were we dealing with?@blueboxjesse
is hard… putting the pieces together takes real infrastructure engineering chops distributed systems are super hard Python skillz time
6
So fix it!@blueboxjesse
Around Diablo and Essex, smart people had a great idea:
Let’s simplify OpenStack deployment and consumption. We’ll offer a choice in between the polar opposites of:
build it yourself (DIY), or a Rackspace account.
How did Linux solve this?
7
And the OpenStackdistribution was born!
@blueboxjesse

A funny thing happened…
…and the “agile thing” started to snowball.

I am not convinced…

I’m not convinced…@blueboxjesse
The public cloud isn’t sold as a software distribution. There’s a reason for that. Distros do not solve critical barriers to open source cloud consumption. OpenStack IS NOT Linux. No incentive to take huge risks required to select, implement and manage
an OpenStack private cloud based on the distro model. The market had time to wait, so they waited (and tried public clouds).
So we ended up with a disconnect…
@blueboxjesse
12
An enterprise disconnect…
Enterprises realized that AWS was not a distraction but a direction
Success stories became too numerous to ignore (way more than just Netflix)
Realization that sustainable success rests solely on differentiation through application innovation
Differentiation through infrastructure is a losing game.
@blueboxjesse
13
An enterprise disconnect…
Enterprises have stopped asking, “What is OpenStack?”
They’ve started asking, “How do I get going with OpenStack?”
But some still call OpenStack a science project…
Because there’s still no click-click-done deployment wizard.
Two choices:
hire, train, build, or
let someone else do it for you.

Blue Box + SoftLayer: Global Cloud@blueboxjesse

In Closing…
Customers can gain immense value from private cloud. But it must be experienced like a cloud. Traditional OpenStack distribution model is broken. Customers want to work with OpenStack, not on OpenStack. Private Cloud as a Service solves this challenge. IBM is the only company to bring that capability globally. It’s available right now!
