This document discusses options for moving workloads to the cloud, including public cloud, private cloud, and hybrid cloud models. It provides details on the characteristics of each model, such as infrastructure ownership and management responsibilities. The document also addresses considerations for organizations in deciding between cloud options, such as regulatory requirements, collaboration needs, and customization requirements. Risks of moving data to the cloud like data loss are presented along with statistics. Overall the document provides an overview of different cloud computing models and factors to evaluate in selecting between them.

11. A recent survey by UBS AG of 101 CIOs in the
U.S. and Europe found that more than half
would move some workloads to a public
cloud, but it would be a gradual process, while
a third of respondents said they were moving
to a public cloud as quickly as possible.
(Wall Street Journal, July 16, 2014)

13. Is there risk in moving
my data to the cloud?

14. of workers used an unsanctioned cloud service
for document storage in the last 6 months 41%
87%
$1.8
of these workers knew their company had
policies forbidding such practices
(billion) estimated annual cost to remedy
the data loss

15. According to IDC:
• 74% expect their cloud service to
be able to move a cloud offering
back on-premise if needed.
• 63% expect to have a single major
cloud service provider.
• 67% expect to purchase a wide
variety of services from a single
vendor.
• 84% want an established
relationship with a vendor to trust
them as a cloud service provider.

17. Of course, migrations could be faster

can be slow,
Microsoft has options

3rd party hoster
Multiple

32. • Standardized (packaged) platform
• Provided with Service Level Agreements (SLAs)
• Minimal customization
• Both software and hardware infrastructure
provided within the service

33. • Architectural and development access to application services,
storage, and application runtime
• Infrastructure Service Level Agreements (SLAs), but work
must be conducted within agreed framework
• Some customizations allowed, within framework
• Both software and hardware infrastructure
provided within the service

34. • Virtualized hardware and software, including
servers, storage, and network infrastructure
• All components delivered as metered services
(pay per use)
• Complete application control
and customization

36. • Size and geographical distribution of an organization can affect cloud adoption.
• Regulatory compliance and governance requirements can limit cloud options.
• External collaboration may require on prem farms.
• Service-level agreements (SLAs) may limit cloud options.
• Enables customers to use preferred features from SharePoint 2013 on prem and
SharePoint Online.
• It is important to understand the ROI of any proposed solution (and the cost of change).
• Hybrid may be more of a transitional environment from on prem to the cloud.
