There are technologies or applications that are capable to trigger massively acquisition of end-users. When strategically planned from the beginning, the value of the target market would be huge and global. Look for example\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatsapp.com\/?l=it\">whatsapp<\/a>, the technology choice was based on mobile phone number subscription although the effective message channel is based on the public internet. The same application could be had been conceived\u00a0as instant messaging uncorrelated to the mobile, as many available on the marketplace. Well this choice has opened the application to a huge arena of mobile subscribers, worldwide. The value of the application resides also in the mobile numbers and SIM info. This subscriber database is also unrelated to a single mobile operator. Currently there are 6 Billions and more of mobile subscribers (85% <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whatsapp.com\/?l=it\">whatsapp<\/a> penetration rate). The impacts on the dimension of underlined serving Cloud Infrastructure, for subscriber management and messaging, can only be guessed. It is now part of FaceBook which has now included as subscriber access info the mobile number!\u00a0 This is a first example. Another important trigger is the fact that mobile applications can associate free\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.satisnet.co.uk\/pdfs\/Gartner-MarketScope-EFSS-Feb2013.pdf\"> File Synchronization and Sharing services <\/a>to all subscribed devices even not related to the serving mobile operator. It means that the market access would be based on another criteria like the brand of the device. This is the case of apple <a href=\"https:\/\/www.icloud.com\/\">iCloud<\/a>\u00a0 which is linked to the subscribed apple (iPhone) devices. One of the main objectives is to provide file sharing services and storage. The cloud infrastructure is huge and some of the strategic <a href=\"http:\/\/www.crn.com\/slide-shows\/cloud\/229503418\/apples-cloud-strategy-10-signs-apple-is-serious-about-the-cloud.htm\/pgno\/0\/1\">moves<\/a> initiated in the 2010\u00a0and the diffusion of Apple datacenters today is strongly progressing, despite very few magic quadrants are reporting the iCloud. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/chuckjones\/2014\/06\/04\/apples-u-s-iphone-market-share-holding-steady\/\">market share<\/a> of apple is around 41.4 %. iCloud offers 5GB of storage for Free and cheap 20GB of storage &#8211; $0.99 per month, which yields availability of thousands of Terabytes in the Apple datacenters.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Foreground<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In contradiction with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mobileworldcongress.com\/\">Mobile World Congress<\/a> which represents the biggest unique event for mobile and wireless technologies, there are at least two annual large events organised for the cloud\u00a0 technologies.

One of the reasons could be the technology maturity and respective <a href=\"http:\/\/softwarestrategiesblog.com\/2011\/08\/27\/gartner-releases-hype-cycle-for-networking-and-communications-2011\/\">hype cycle<\/a> positions. For sure, the reality is that around cloud computing and virtualisation technologies there is a very big three digits billion market. Cloud based infrastructures are also accelerating adoption of other technologies like NFV, SDN and 4G mobile. Cloud computing is interesting for a majority of any size enterprise and the discussion about public vs. private has generated the hybrid configurations for which 2\/3\u00a0 of enterprises have adopted as strategy. These and other interesting themes will be presented and analysed at both the events (cloud expo and CWF). For example, case studies demonstrating how the enablement of digital enterprise through pioneering solutions,\u00a0 Unified Communications, social mobile collaboration, virtualisation,\u00a0 security or cloud migration technologies.<\/p>\n<p><strong id=\"events\"><br \/>\n___________________________________________________________________________________<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong> Major event: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.openstack.org\/summit\/openstack-paris-summit-2014\/\">OpenStack Summt Paris 2014<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"result_box\" lang=\"en\"><span id=\"result_box\" lang=\"en\"><span class=\"hps\">Paris, 3-7 Nov 2014\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"magicdomid1262\" class=\"ace-line\"><span class=\"author-a-xgz72zm3z90zgz75zz80zz76z9j4z82zrz87z\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.openstack.org\/summit\/openstack-paris-summit-2014\/\">OpenStack Summit<\/a> is a five-day conference for developers, users, and administrators of OpenStack Cloud Software.

The full blog post dedicated to this topic will be delivered soon!<\/p>\n<p>1.0 Introduction<\/p>\n<p>Disaster Recovery (DR) is the process of ensuring continuity of a set of workloads following, or anticipating, large scale disasters that disrupts the current environment or infrastructure. By large scale disaster, we are considering disasters which can lead to a complete loss of a data center such as floods, tornadoes, hurricanes, fires, etc. To provide DR, we need a geographically distant site which will be the target of recovery. Any resources, data, etc., needed by the application to recover need to be at the target site prior to the disaster. There is a substantial difference from the High Availability in the cloud which is the mechanism for continued operations within a single cloud environment. More in general, the DR\u00a0 will be the mechanism for continued operations in multiple cloud environments. In this context DR is a continued workload operations in an alternative deployment, the recovery target infrastructure that could be or not be based on cloud.<\/p>\n<p>2.0 Architecture requirements in OpenStack environment<\/p>\n<p>A possible architecture should allow to take snapshots of interested Virtual Machines, create copies and place the redundant copies in an OpenStack region that is also geographically different from the region of the original VMs. The region must be a different one, because VMs that live on the same physical host are not resistant to disasters or safety risks. In order to make VMs highly available to the outside world, the traffic to the VMs should be routed through some load balancer, or DR PaaS middleware, which can distribute traffic evenly over the redundant VMs. A good idea to handle the traffic is to employ OpenStack&#8217;s Heat component which can be used to bind number and size of multiple VMs elastically to traffic volumes. Heat orchestrator works primarily on infrastructure, but it is also compatible to software configuration management tools like Chef or Puppet. A great challenge will be the synchronization of original VMs with their redundant copies. The (virtualized) hardware and software configurations of copies and originals should be kept in sync. In case the cloud provider actor is different from the DR provider, the stacks have to be organised in a way that migration and updates of redundant copies should be authorised between the two domains.\u00a0 Open questions are for example: to meet same SLA and\u00a0 business continuity on recovery clould, how to identify \/ flag the tenant environment (data, applications) that will be protected and continued in case of disaster.<\/p>\n<p>3.0 Use case and ecosystem for DR services.<\/p>\n<p>Many cloud providers or organizations today do not offer cheap disaster recovery services which are considerated expensive, complex and unreliable for the most mission-critical applications. The best disaster recovery should provide great protection at the lowest possible cost. DR is already a service of big players like AWS, vMWare and other organisations.\u00a0 Some business criteria could be: Recoverability (*), Diversity of IT application environments, Affordability by the DC operations.<\/p>\n<p>We can identify, for the cloud case (fig.1), these Stakeholders:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Private Cloud: \u00a0customer of the DR provider<\/li>\n<li>DR Provider: Disaster recovery provider<\/li>\n<li>Tenant: customer of the Private Cloud<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.zhaw.ch\/icclab\/files\/2014\/11\/ecosystem-.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6760 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.zhaw.ch\/icclab\/files\/2014\/11\/ecosystem-.jpg\" alt=\"ecosystem\" width=\"420\" height=\"311\" \/><\/a> Fig.1 Use case and ecosystem for DR services<\/p>\n<p>The DR provider role would include services like: management of subscriptions, DR set-up and setup of local DR customer tools \/ APIs, DR tenant management and deployment strategies, local HA for DR tenant images. The DR provider may host other tenants beside the DR service and therefore the DR service may also be offered to them beside the normal Ha requirements. This local tenant DR service architecture would have probably lower challenges than the external DR customers .<\/p>\n<p>4.0 DR service lifecycle<\/p>\n<p>For this specific service we can design a life-cycle like the one depicted in figure. 5. However, more on IT incident management strategies and standards can be found on this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/feature\/How-to-write-a-disaster-recovery-plan-and-define-disaster-recovery-strategies\">page <\/a>. and on ISO 27031 and ISO 24762.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.zhaw.ch\/icclab\/files\/2014\/11\/lifecycle.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6761 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.zhaw.ch\/icclab\/files\/2014\/11\/lifecycle.jpg\" alt=\"lifecycle\" width=\"409\" height=\"324\" \/><\/a>Fig.2 DR lifecycle<\/p>\n<p>Types of DR service subscription may also include the frequency of replicating the original application to the recovery infrastructure (recovery level). For example: \u00a0\u201cGold\u201d profile for application service that requires the highest protection level with the shortest recovery point objective (RPO) and the shortest recovery time objective (RTO). Such a DR policy can be based on synchronous replication and hot backup site. Other policies such as \u201cSilver\u201d based on periodic replication, or \u201cBronze\u201d based on async replication with low capacity standby site for application services that require lower protection levels with longer <a href=\"http:\/\/redhatstackblog.redhat.com\/2013\/11\/26\/disaster-recovery-enablement-in-openstack\/\">Recovery Point Objective RPOs &amp; Recovery Time Objective RTOs<\/a><\/p>\n<p>5.0 Experiment plan<\/p>\n<p>The lab is following the progress of the project initiated in<a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.openstack.org\/wiki\/DisasterRecovery\"> OpenStack <\/a><\/p>\n<p>and the intention is to make a local testbed utilising the two OpenStack clouds available at the ICCLab as follows:<\/p>\n<p><b>Lisa<\/b> DR data center &#8211; Region 1 (DR infrastructure provider)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Backup images (storage and VM)<\/li>\n<li>DR tenants<\/li>\n<li>DR manager and broker<\/li>\n<li>Post incident management<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Barth<\/b> Cloud Services &#8211; Region 2 (DR customers)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Cloud hosting<\/li>\n<li>Tenant subscriptions for DR service<\/li>\n<li>Monitoring and triggering<\/li>\n<li>pre-incident duplication and updates<\/li>\n<li>Client DR \u00a0manager (functions: . . . . .)<\/li>\n<li>post-event restore<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There are functions that would be at a higher level which can be defined as a Survivability management middleware. The scope is to logically link two o more OpenStack environment (even as domain administrated by different subjects) and to coordinate the DR lifecycle according the plan\u00a0 in Fig. 2.<\/p>\n<p>Following figure 3 shows a possible configurations and elements to be considered when a single OpenStack environment (DR provider) will host recovered environments of various CloudStack environments. In principal this architecture could be realised with any virtualised environment even not based on OpenStack.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.zhaw.ch\/icclab\/files\/2014\/11\/middleware.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6764 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.zhaw.ch\/icclab\/files\/2014\/11\/middleware.jpg\" alt=\"middleware\" width=\"444\" height=\"301\" \/><\/a> Fig.3<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0In order to design a DR service in OpenStack there are many requirements to be taken into account and designed like: to set-up a multi region secure environment encompassing the customers and the DR provider scalable Infrastructure (<a href=\"https:\/\/wiki.openstack.org\/wiki\/Heat\">Heat<\/a> should help solving this aspects), DR provisioning and subscription (at tenant level or at application level), periodical duplication of customer data (VM, storage, meta-data), test on DR provider before disaster events, design of monitoring and context broker middleware for event \/ alarm management, DR plan actuation (Fail-over), Fail-Back process. In addition, it is envisaged that new APIs should be designed to realise architecture like one shown in Figure.3. The complexity of the entire service is the realisation of its lifecycle in figure 2.<\/p>\n<p>It has to be noticed that there should also be a cooperation between existing elements of the architecture and this new middleware we can call\u00a0Survivability<br \/>\nManager Middleware as in figure 4.
