Thinking differently is essential when building a business case for migrating to the cloud. For example, when on-premises, your architecture is provisioned for peak capacity. Migrating to the cloud means shifting from a primarily capital and operational expenditure-based model to a pay-as-you-consume-based model. To achieve greater cloud economics, you need to consider how you consume resources for your specific workloads. Then you can establish a fixed and variable cost model to use your cloud resources most efficiently by layering seasonal or demand-based activities where elastic computing makes sense.

Key constructs for maximum efficiency in the cloud include eliminating idle capacity and unnecessary workloads, taking advantage of tools to scale on-demand, and reserving resources in advance for predictable workloads. With traditional economics, the cloud allows you to empower and support the productivity of developers, engineers, and line-of-business with the latest in compute, storage, and networking technology, and significantly improve your workload performance.

OCI and Cybereason at VMware Explore (US)

At VMware Explore (US) next week in San Francisco, Cybereason, a visionary in endpoint protection platforms, will share firsthand how they rapidly extended their global development and test platform to the cloud, why they implemented their continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) developer platform with the Oracle Cloud VMware Solution, and some blind spots to consider in your cloud migration strategy.

Join Max Romanenko, VP of software engineering at Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), as he discusses with Itzik Moshaof, senior director of Global IT at Cybereason, how they were able to maintain their current internal processes, while confidently extending their development, test, and CI/CD infrastructure services with Oracle Cloud VMware Solution to their development teams. Thriving with Cloud Economics – A Conversation with Cybereason [MCLB2668USS] happens Wednesday, August 31, from 2:00–3:00 p.m. PT at Moscone South, Esplanade in Room 155.
