Terminology

High Availability (HA)• Fault Tolerant systems are measured by their

Availability in terms of planned and unplanned service outages for end use.

# 4


Terminology

Disaster Recovery (DR) • The process, policies and procedures related to

restoring critical systems after a catastrophic event.

Agenda


# 6


Mission

Introduction to architectural options for

designing highly-available, fault-

tolerant applications and systems

across different clouds.

What do we mean by “Cloud”?

# 9



A cloud is a physical datacenter entity behind an

API endpoint.

What does that

really mean?

… these are clouds.

Think of “Cloud” as a

“resource pool” accessed via an API.

# 24


How would we like to use “Cloud”?

# 25


How would we like to use it?

We'd like to use "Cloud" as a collection of many

"resource pools" accessed via one API.

Achieving High-Availability• Multi-Cloud Cold DR

• Staged Server Configuration and generally no staged data

• Multi-Cloud Warm DR• Staged Server Configuration, pre-staged data and running Slave Database Server

• Multi-Cloud Hot DR• Parallel Deployment with all servers running but all traffic going to primary

• Multi-Cloud HA• Live/Live configuration. May use Geo-target IP services to direct traffic to regional

load balancers

# 30


Multi-Cloud Cold DRStaged Server Configuration and generally no staged data

• Slow to replicate data to other cloud• Slow to bring database to an operational state

# 31


Multi-Cloud HALive/Live configuration. May use Geo-target IP services to direct traffic to regional load balancers.

• Provides high availability• Complex to implement and manage

# 32


Multi-Cloud Platform

A Cloud “Remote Control”• Private clouds• Public clouds• Hybrid clouds

Choose your:• Vendors• Geography• Price• Performance• Compliance

Agenda

• Terminology• Mission• Cloud and component definitions• Multi-cloud concept• Multi cloud management for High Availability• Conclusions

# 34


It’s a multi-cloud world• Not all clouds are created equal

• We want to use benefits from different cloud providers

• Design for failure• Assume everything will fail and architect a solution capable of handing

each and every failure condition

• Keep your options open• … like she does


Thank you!
