Agenda •  Why AWS •  What is AWS •  How AWS is leveraged

There are many reasons to move to the Cloud #1: Agility #2: Platform Breadth #3: Continual Iteration and Innovation #4: Cost Savings and Flexibility Our 42nd Price Reduction ü 

Old World: Infrastructure in weeks Enterprises Can’t Afford to Be Slow

Availability AWS has multiple "availability zones" (AZs) within regions. AWS's services are designed to make it easier to run applications across multiple AZs;

Magic Quadrant for Cloud IaaS Gartner “Magic Quadrant for Cloud Infrastructure as a Service,” Lydia Leong, Douglas Toombs, Bob Gill, Gregor Petri, Tiny Haynes, August 19, 2013. This Magic Quadrant graphic was published by Gartner, Inc. as part of a larger research note and should be evaluated in the context of the entire report.. The Gartner report is available upon request from Steven Armstrong ([email protected]).

There are many ways to move to the Cloud #1: Development and Test #2: New Workloads #3 Supplement existing workloads #4: Integrate Cloud Workloads with Existing On-premises systems #5: Migrate Existing Applications #6 DC Migrations and All-In

•  Australian Government agencies will: –  consider cloud services for new ICT procurements. Agencies will choose cloud services where the cloud service represents the best value for money and adequate management of risk compared to other available options; –  commence procurement of public cloud services for their testing and development needs, as appropriate where the service represents the best value for money and is fit for purpose; –  transition public facing websites to public cloud hosting at natural ICT refreshment points, where those cloud services demonstrate best value for money and is fit for purpose; and –  establish information sharing initiatives to facilitate continual improvement based on a repository of case studies, better practices risk approaches and practical lessons to enable agencies to learn from each other. Government Guidance

•  Virtual Private Cloud –  You control virtual networking environment, your own IP address range, creation of subnets, route tables and network gateways. •  Direct Connect - Private Connectivity to your Amazon VPC Test and Development

•  Web / App servers (EC2) •  Disk (EBS) •  Auto Scaling Group •  Load Balancer (ELB) •  Database (EC2 or RDS) •  DNS (Route 53) •  S3 (Static content, logs) •  Security Groups •  NACL Web Applications

CloudFormation •  Single script: https://s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/cloudformation- templates-ap-southeast-2/Drupal_Multi_AZ.template •  Drupal Web Site •  Also scripts for: •  SharePoint •  WordPress •  Joolma! •  LAMP

•  Founded in 2008, HubWorks! provides a web portal for childcare in Australia used by 800 public and private organizations •  The infrastructure was unable to scale reliably during peak usage hours, leading to portal crashes •  With AWS, Hubworks! can automatically scale up during peak periods to meet demand and then scale down HubWorks! Uses AWS to Improve Portal Response Times and Save Money

Education •  University of WA – Class2Go –  Professor Glance. “Using AWS, Class2Go cost about $200 for the first month and our current operating costs are only about $1,500 a month.” •  Open Universities Australia – Open2Study (MOOC) –  “We can have technologies in development within a day and add them to our production environment within two weeks instead of waiting until all work is completed before going live,”

Research •  International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research (ICRAR) –  “The scalability of AWS has been enormously helpful,” says Associate Professor Vinsen. “I can add more capacity as I need it with minimal fuss. Using AWS allows us to process upwards of 150 GB of sky images and store more than 400 GB of imaging data every month.”

•  Government advice –  Despite common perceptions, cloud computing has the potential to enhance privacy safeguards used to protect personal information held by Government agencies. –  Irrespective of choosing traditional methods of provisioning ICT requirements or cloud computing services, agencies need to be aware of their privacy and security obligations, conduct a risk-based analysis of their information, and ensure that the contractual arrangements they enter into with ICT providers adequately address their privacy obligations. –  It is important to note that the Privacy Act 1988 (Privacy Act) does not prohibit the use of cloud computing and an agency, having conducted appropriate due diligence, may contract for cloud computing services and comply with its Privacy Act obligations, as with current ICT contractual practice. Privacy
