Step-by-Step Azure Migration: Adobe's Cloud Journey
- 1. Step-by-step Integration with Microsoft Azure Adobe's Cloud Journey Ashish Shah, Sr. Director of Product Management, Avi Networks
- 2. Agenda • Microsoft Azure – by the numbers • Application networking requirements • Application delivery options for Microsoft Azure • Cloud-native architecture for application delivery
- 3. Azure as the Leading Cloud Platform • 98% QoQ growth in Q4 2017 • Fastest growing Enterprise public cloud • Enterprise relationships • Security and Compliance • Reach - 42 regions with 100+ DCs worldwide
- 4. Multi-Cloud is Both the Challenge and the Opportunity • 81% has multi-cloud strategy • On average, enterprises have almost 5 clouds • Running 3.1 clouds • Experimenting 1.7 clouds • 2.7 public clouds • 3.0 private clouds
- 5. Application Networking Requirements in the Cloud Consistent enterprise-class capabilities Enterprise-class Features • Full featured L4-L7 ELB – persistence, performance • Distributed Web App Firewall Application Insights • Real time app performance monitoring • Connection log analytics Cloud Native Automation • 1-click app provisioning • API integration for DNS, IPAM, AZs, Autoscaling Multi-Cloud • Consistency across public cloud & on-prem • Central control and monitoring Public Public Private Private
- 6. Application Delivery Choices Legacy Virtual Appliances Open Source Tools • Manage each “instance” • No automation • No telemetry • Expensive • Not feature complete • No telemetry • Too much DiY Lift and Shift OR Shift and Lift! Legacy Virtual ADC Appliances and Open Source – Not a Good Fit

Editor's Notes
- A quick overview of Avi. We are based in silicon valley, California. We have been helping our Global 2000 customers with a universal solution that delivers both traditional and modern applications for over 6 years. We have gained the trust of over 4 dozen of Fortune 500 customers and 20% of Fortune 50 organizations around the globe. With our strong growth momentum, enterprise-class 24x7 support and numerous industry recognitions for our ability to innovate and execute. Cisco in particular has developed a strategic reseller relationship with Avi by including us on their global price list and going to market jointly with Avi.
- Next, I am going to talk about how Avi delivers these fundamental values. They need a solid foundation and key building blocks. Avi Vantage Platform – 100% software defined, scalable and distributed modern architecture that best matches the new generation of applications Analytics – visibility is to see which is an important first step. The true value to businesses however comes from actionable insights that can help make better decisions Automation – again it’s more than REST APIs and Ecosystem integration. What makes automation increasingly important is that it’s the critical step to finally operationalize digital transformation – from vision to reality. Let me now go through each of these steps in details. Software defined principle – our architecture separates the control plane and data plane. It allows centralized management and policies with distributed data plane referred to as Ses. SEs can scale out and in automatically – seamless scaling based on workloads. Automation is really the invisible secret sauce that makes this possible. And to make full-stack automation, it’s key to integrate into a rich set of ecosystem with 100% clean REST APIs. SEs can be deployed across heterogeneous environment – x86 bare metal servers, in virtualized environments or along side containers in both on-prem data centers, private clouds and public clouds. Multi-cloud is important not only due to the flexibility and freedom it allows but also reduces your risk of being forced to put all your eggs in one basket. Ultimately, what’s driving all these is the intelligence Avi’s built in analytics brings. It helps your teams work smarter, your infrastructure to react to changing demands faster and enable you to make wiser decisions.
