- Travis Rhoden - EMC {code}
Outline:
- Intro
- Problem space of software development, deployment, and operations
- Legacy
- Waterfall development
- Problems with, and why move to smaller, separate services
- Why "...as a Service" (XaaS) ?
- define "as a service"
- benefit of self-service (IT of tomorrow)
- IaaS led to VMs for all those separate services
- Progression to "Software Defined..." (SDx)
- Examples: SDN, SDS, SDDC
- SDx moves beyond XaaS by also defining Infrastructure as Code. scheduling, scaling, healing
- Repeatable, immutable infrastructure
- Infrastructure As Code
- Made possible by SDx
- Next-gen application architectures include the infrastructure as part of the application
- Moves beyond self-service to something that is auto-scaling, and self-healing
- Open Source frees your datacenter
- OSS technologies are driving SDx
- Examples: RackHD, Mesos and Docker, REX-Ray, Puppet/Ansible, SIO
- Video (5-6 min)
- RackHD to Docker-Swarm hosted Cassandra cluster with persistent volumes
- Key takeaways
- Repeatable, immutable infrastructure provides consistency and predictability
- Better scaling with less human overhead
- OSS-enabled SDx provides maximum agility
- evolving faster than anything else
- best of breed products integrate with each other
- This is why {code} exists
Software development, deployment, and operations have changed. Organizations are now focusing on operating in a developer-oriented way through code and leveraging software defined techonologies. Learn about the progression from delivering "as a service" to "software defined" and how infrastructure as code and open source can help you overhaul your data center.
