Today’s Day Two Cloud delves into how and why to build a private cloud that functions as well as a public cloud. We examine the design and operational challenges of assembling and operating cloud infrastructure on premises.
Our guest is Bryan Sullins, Senior Systems Engineer for a large retailer.
We discuss:
* NIST’s definition of private clouds
* Automating all the things (hardware, software, OSs, etc.)
* Key platforms including Ansible, Morpheus, and Kubernetes
* The role of self-service
* How building a private cloud affected the infrastructure team
* Planning, design, and implementation
* More
Takeaways:
* Have a test lab.
* Have a defined process and document it.
* Many tools used in this deployment are open source. You can start tomorrow.
