The Personas Affecting Your Cloud Choices


theON-PREMISE CLOUD

approach

theHYBRID CLOUD

approach

thePUBLIC CLOUD

approach


66% of IT Executives cite security and application isolation as a top concern when looking at using the public cloud


Consideration: Security and Compliance


2014


Consideration: Security and Compliance

Our data access is restricted based on geopolitical boundaries. I can’t use the public cloud.

Maybe we can put development and test

environments in the cloud, and prove the concept for

our more complex systems.

I know cloud providers have security as a top

priority, so our business can focus on value add.


Consideration: Security & ComplianceHow WebLogic and CAF Keep Your Data Safe


Federal, national and global security standards compliant

Certified through recognized security bodies Oracle Cloud: we manage, On-premise: you do Industry and governmental-specific data centers

Security software and Identity Management Role management, virtual databases, encryption All included in Oracle Cloud, on-premise you

manage On-premise sometimes necessitated by industry

of geography


88% of IT Executives believe cloud solutions provide a better utilization of their resources, lowering their TCO.


Consideration: Infrastructure Ownership


2014


Consideration: IT Architecture Ownership

I need granular control over our hardware and software components. My mission-critical apps require it.

We DO own a lot of our technology stack. But I wonder if it would save money to offload some infrastructure or software costs.

Our business value isn’t in IT. We need to

operate lean and agile, so cloud services are the way to go for us.


Consideration: IT Architecture OwnershipTiered Infrastructure Management Options for Maximum Flexibility


INVESTMENT CHOICE

Conventional IT IaaS PaaS Managed PaaS


50% of apps in the cloud are for core business and sales. Always-on availability of a cloud solution is now mission-critical.


Consideration: Availability


2014


Consideration: High Availability/SLAs

I want to keep our SLA level at 99.999% or higher. With a public cloud, I can’t influence that to my satisfaction.

Can we use a cloud provider to achieve more efficient redundancy across our many data centers?

Many cloud providers offer 99.95% or higher availability. That’s “good enough” for our business, and we can’t afford to invest further.


Consideration: Availability/Service Level AgreementsKeeping Your Cloud Apps and Infrastructure Always-On

On-premise, availability is up to your needs and investment

On-premise you can control redundancy, policies, etc.

Most cloud providers: 99.95% up

Engineered Systems (soon) goal is 99.999%

We use what you would for on-premise in our cloud: Engineered Systems, RAC, Coherence, Maximum Availability Architecture
