Virtualization is the foundation stone in the Cloud Computing era

The speakers will present, detail & elaborate Comprehensive Concepts Overview, Insight, Recommendations, Best Practices, Current Strategies, Pros & Cons, Relevance/Role in Cloud Computing, Prevalent/Dominant Paradigms & Technologies and, a whole lot more about Virtualization as, it relates to Oracle professionals from the perspective of Oracle on Oracle VM

Session Abstract

A Virtual Machine Monitor/Hypervisor enables OS Kernels to run and co-exist as guests

Hypervisors are installed and are responsible for allocation & coordination of CPU, Memory, I/O, Peripheral resources etc. to the guest virtual machines

What is Virtualization?

Cloud Computing means a lot of different things to a lot of different people. So what exactly is Cloud Computing? In its most generally accepted form, Cloud Computing is Web/Network-based

computing where Abstracted Resources are located and shared on the Network, whether Intranet (Private Cloud) OR Internet (Public Cloud)

Cloud is sometimes used as an alternative term/metaphor for the Internet Cloud Computing is On-Demand, Metered and Self-Serviceable

Cloud Computing is an evolution of existing IT paradigms, strategies

& models: In many aspects it is a re-branding, re-organization and re-presentation of various components in the overall IT ecosystem. Here are a few salient characteristics/features of an IT Cloud: Dynamic, Elastic, Agile and Scalable Multi-tenant, Secure & Reliable Metered Service-based models

Virtualization in Perspective: What is Cloud Computing? – Synopsis & Overview

Four models of deployment are currently prevalent/In-use:

Private Cloud (aka Enterprise Cloud): Characterized by clouds on private networks (May someday replace the traditional Data-Center term)

Public Cloud: Shared (Typically Virtualized) resources over the Internet

Hybrid Cloud: A mix/hotch-potch/conglomerate of Private/Public Cloud models

Community Cloud: Organizations forming a shared cloud for common needs/goals/purposes


Five layers of Cloud Computing with three Service Models are broadly identified according to general consensus: Server layer: Hardware/Software: CPUs, RAM etc Client layer: Desktops, OSs, browsers etc Application layer: aka Software as a Service (SaaS Service Model)

provides applications (typically multi-tenant) over the Internet Platform layer: aka Platform as a Service (PaaS Service Model) provides

a computing platform by implementing/providing the whole solution stack. This has been identified by Oracle as the sweet spot of Cloud Computing in the years to come

Infrastructure layer: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS Service Model) provides the entire computing infrastructure/ecosystem usually through virtualization


Cloud Computing is in flux, not completely mature and still evolving

Is Cloud Computing a Paradigm Shift?

The answer is YES & NO: Depends on your perception, understanding & implementation of your flavor of Cloud Computing

Is Cloud Computing seeing massive adoption?

It is catching on and, the prospects are very promising


Figure/Diagram from Gartner


Oracle’s definition of Cloud Computing:

Identical to Amazon EC2: It must be Virtualized and it must be Elastic

Clustering

Virtualization

Dynamic Provisioning

SOA/Shared Services

Management /Automation


Oracle has 2 types of VM product offerings:

Type 1 Hypervisor: installed on bare metal hardware

Oracle VM Server for x86

Oracle VM Server for SPARC

Type 2 Hypervisor – Oracle VM VirtualBox

Installed on an existing host OS

Allows multiple OS to run on a single machine (X86)

Controls its own IO, Network, etc

Following Data from Chapter 1 of the Oracle Virtual Box Manual

Oracle VM – Categories/Types

XEN – Synopsis & Overview

Oracle VM Templates – Overview & Architecture

Oracle VM Templates OR Golden Images provide reusability and full-stack implementation

Factory-packaged, Pre-installed and pre-configured software images

Reduces Installation/Configuration costs

Major Oracle products are available as templates e.g. Oracle Database Server, Fusion Middleware, Enterprise Linux, Real Application Clusters (RAC) etc

Templates are pre-configured virtual machines (VMs) containing software products that are ready-to-go

Methods of Creating Oracle VM Templates:

Physical-to-Virtual (P2V) Conversion Create VM Templates from existing Virtual

Machine Images Create VM Templates from JeOS

Oracle VM VirtualBox – A brief intro

Very Portable

32 bit/64 bit

No Hardware virtualization

Can run on older hardware

Guest Additions: shared folders, seamless windows, 3D virtualization

Allows advanced features


Multi-generation Branched Snapshots - Saves arbitrary snapshots of the state of the virtual machine. You can go back in time and revert the virtual machine to any such snapshot and start an alternative VM configuration from there

Clean Architecture; Excellent Modularity - VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a clean separation of client and server code


Software development kit (SDK) - Allows for integrating every aspect of VirtualBox with other software systems

Remote Machine display - The VirtualBox Remote Desktop Extension (VRDE) allows for high-performance remote access to any running virtual machine.

The VRDE is plugged directly into the virtualization layer. It works with the guest operating systems other than Windows (even in text mode) and does not require application support in the virtual machine either

On top of this special capacity, VirtualBox offers you more unique features:

Extensible RDP authentication - VirtualBox already supports Winlogon on Windows and PAM on Linux for RDP authentication

USB over RDP - Via RDP virtual channel support, VirtualBox allows you to connect arbitrary local USB devices to a virtual machine which is running remotely

Application Driven Virtualization; simplifying VM deployment Scalability:

Up-to 160 physical CPUs, 2 TB of memory 128 virtual CPUs and 1TB memory per guest VM
