RED HAT ENTERPRISE LINUX OPENSTACK PLATFORM

AGENDA

● WHY OPENSTACK, AND WHY NOW ● RED HAT & OPENSTACK

● RED HAT VISION ● TO THE INFINITY…AND BEYOND


I.T. CHALLENGES


WORKLOADS ARE EVOLVING

TRADITIONAL WORKLOADS

● Typically resides on a single large Virtual Machine

● Cannot tolerate any downtime ● Needs expensive high availability tools

found in VMware vSphere ● Application scales up rather than out

CLOUDWORKLOADS

● Workload resides on multiple Virtual Machines ● Tolerates VM failure – if one fails, another

quickly replaces it ● Fault tolerance often built into workload ● Application scales out rather than up

CLOUD BENEFITS● Agility & Control

● Reduce time to provision ● Ability to scale on demand ● Improve business decision by capacity planning and cost

impacts ● Cost savings

● Increased consolidation, utilisation and optimisation ● Reduce power costs ● Re-allocation of human resources to more productive

roles ● Reduce SW licenses

● Rapid innovation ● More rapidly upgrade for applications ● Decrease time to market for new apps

WHY RED HAT?


● Needs to access x86 hardware resources

● Needs an operating environment, hypervisor, services

● Leverages existing code libraries for functionality

FREEDOM, CHOICE, FLEXIBILITY


● It is dependent on the underlying Linux...

LINUX

HOW DO WE GET FROM

COMMUNITY OPENSTACK TO

RED HAT OPENSTACK?


RED HAT LEADS THROUGH OPEN INNOVATION


OPENSTACK RELEASE CADENCE

Upstream RDO RHEL-OSP 5

Source code only

Deliver binaries for major

Enterprise Linux (RHEL, CentOS,

Fedora)

Subscription-based for RHEL

6-months cadence Follows upstreamReleased every 6 months,

2-3 months after upstream

2 to 3 ‘snapshots’

including bug fixes Follows upstream

>3 years support lifecycle (will

increase in time)

No more fixes after next

major release (no back port)Follows upstream

Backporting of bug fixes and

improvements


HOW DO I KNOW IF I AM

READY FOR OPENSTACK?


VIRTUAL MACHINE WORKLOAD TYPESTRADITIONAL

(RHEV)

CLOUD (OpenStack)

MIXED/HYBRID

Big stateful VM Small stateless VMs Combination of Traditional

and Cloud VMs to provide

application. Database may

be hosted on traditional

workloads, web front-end

and logic layers on cloud

workloads.

1 Application → 1 VM 1 Application → Many VMs

Lifecycle in years Lifecycle hours to months

Scale up (VM gets bigger) Scale out (add VMs)

Not designed to tolerate

failure of VM, so you need

features that keep VMs up

If a VM dies, application kills

it and creates a new one, app

stays up

Application SLA requires

enterprise virtualization

features (migration, HA, etc.)

to keep applications

available

Application SLA requires

adding/removing VM

instances to application

cloud to maintain application

availability

WHAT'S COMING?


BEYOND CLOUD


DEVOPS CLOUDPaaS

DEVOPS + CLOUD = PaaS


What is DevOps? - The application of software development principles to the tasks of IT Operations, often automating Operations tasks such as application code deployment and promotion. What is Continuous Delivery? – The automation of code promotion through the application lifecycle so that code changes can be pushed into production environments very often. PaaS is the PATH to DevOps SUCCESS

DEVOPS? CONTINUOUS DELIVERY?


CODE DEPLOY RUN

● Multi-language

● Auto-scaling

● Self-service

● Open Source

● Enterprise-grade

● Secure

● Built on Red Hat
