Running web-scale workloads on the cloud successfully demands using well-tested operational practices, whether the environment is cloud-native, hybrid, or considered for a move. As with any large infrastructure footprint, organizations must balance the often competing demands of various factors such as security, compliance, recoverability, availability, performance (QoS), developer productivity, the rate of innovation, infrastructure efficiency, and spending.
If leveraged effectively, cloud computing capabilities offer considerable advantages over making compromises for most of the previously identified factors. Although running large workloads, on-premise versus a public cloud, have similar underlying fundamentals, the cloud poses unique challenges which must be addressed. The shift of operations to the cloud still requires the same people and processes as on-premise data centers. However, it now focuses on a higher level of operations. No longer has server uptime is the focus, as a shift of responsibility is towards protecting client and endpoint protection, identity and access management, data governance, and cloud spend.
In this eMag, you will be introduced to the Cloud Operating Model and learn how to avoid critical pitfalls. We’ve hand-picked four full-length articles to showcase that.
