Provider Edition The provider edition is focused to provide all possible variants of cloud services for enterprise end-customers. That means: 1. Different operational models: public
(multi-tenant), hybrid and virtual-private (mega-tenant) models are supported
2. Full support of world wide distributed systems in multiple locations

Cloud Computing…
SaaS • Applications on demand • Mostly interesting for
SMEs or horizontal applications
PaaS • Platform to execute source
code directly • Mostly interesting for the
implementation of consumer services
IaaS • Platform for the execution of
virtual machines • For all applications with
dynamic demand

Cloud Computing Modelle Different Delivery Models
Private Cloud: - Within the enterprise facilities - Shared between the companies sub-organizations
Provider Cloud: - Fully multi-tenant environment - Limited influence of single users
Hybrid Cloud: - Resource from a private and a provider cloud - Integrated resource management
Virtual Private Cloud: - Shared platform with a fully separated BSS stacks
Service Structure on top of IaaS
Basic Infrastructure Management: provisioning of Storage, Compute and Network in a distributed and
heterogenous environment
Managed IaaS
PaaS SaaS
autonomously functioning product
Enabling functionality for customer implementation
Service Types – additional capabilities from the IaaS stack
• Core system changes without root permissions from API and Portal
• Adding access to cross-customer systems (e.g. monitoring)
Managed IaaS
• Infrastructure for automatic deployment of applications within a virtual machine
• Infrastructure supporting automated data-load and end-user access integration
PaaS
• Customization of frontend possible to address different user types (AppStore)
• Billing model flexibility supporting SaaS models

True hybrid clouds
• Integration – Different resource pools (sub-clouds) can be
transparently bridged • Abstraction
– Users don’t necessarily see the different resource pools – resource scheduling will work across the entire environment
• Controlled – Legal / Commercial requirements can be
controlled without direct user knowledge

Provider Downsides
§ Customers are hard to convince to use another cloud provider when they had chosen one already
§ Substantial cost of sales need to be invested in order to lower entry barriers
Cloud Service Consumer Downsides
§ Result is often a single vendor strategy
§ Complexity to make services comparable
16
Hybrid Cloud is only the technology – Commercial process
is very complex
The commercial and technical process is a one time effort.
One-time: review the conditions of the brokerage service
One time: set up neutral cloud architecture software
A change of supplier is without any complexity

§ New customer channel § Specific cloud solutions (e.g. high-
performance) can fit in a complete cloud service landscape for the customer
§ Risk mitigation § Cost optimization § Performance optimization
