Today’s Day Two Cloud delves into how and why to build a private cloud that functions as well as a public cloud. We examine the design and operational challenges of assembling and operating cloud infrastructure on premises. Our guest is Bryan Sullins, Senior Systems Engineer for a large retailer. We discuss: * NIST’s definition of private clouds * Automating all the things (hardware, software, OSs, etc.) * Key platforms including Ansible, Morpheus, and Kubernetes * The role of self-service * How building a private cloud affected the infrastructure team * Planning, design, and implementation * More Takeaways: * Have a test lab. * Have a defined process and document it. * Many tools used in this deployment are open source. You can start tomorrow. Show Links: ThinkingOutCloud.org – Bryan Sullins’ Web site Bryan Sullins on Twitter Bryan Sullins on LinkedIn
