Keynote by Lew Tucker, VP and CTO of Cloud Computing at Cisco, at OpenStack Silicon Valley 2015. As more companies move to software-driven infrastructures, OpenStack opens up new possibilities for traditional network service providers, media production, and content providers. Micro-services, and carrier-grade service delivery become the new watchwords for those companies looking to disrupt traditional players with virtualized services running on OpenStack.

2. Entire Industries are being disrupted by
waves of innovation
Internet and Cloud Computing

3. Cloud computing brought in multi-tenancy and larger scale
- changing the fundamental economics

4. It’s a new world.
More virtual machines than physical hosts.
Physical Domain Virtual Domain
Instant, self-provisioning, dynamic allocation of resources

5. • Agility
• Faster Time to Market
• Lower Cost
• Automation through software
• Open Systems de-risk investment
• Mitigate vendor-lockin
• Services that span both public and
private deployments
Age of Software Defined Data Centers….

6. Configuration and Cabling Becomes Code
Templates and declarative models replace manual procedures
submodule execd-routes {
import inet-types { prefix inet; }
include execd-types;
description
“providesfor configuring static routes
(IPv4 and IPv6).
grouping routes {
container inet {
list route {
key "name prefix-length";
leaf name {
type inet:ipv4-address;
}
leaf prefix-length {
type prefixLengthIPv4;
}
leaf enabled {
type boolean;
default true;
}

18. Opportunity for Virtualized Cloud-based
Services to Replace Specialized Hardware
Each of the functions in the media pipeline
is implemented as a (distributed) software
centric application
Collection of Application Containers
interconnected using a workflow becomes a
service container
The Workflow guides the flow of content
through the Application Containers and the
associated processing of data

25. • Need to re-think application and service design
based on composition of a set of simple, micro-
services.
• Services need end-to-end orchestration across data
centers for best user experience.
• Resiliency - built in to the application/service itself.
• Continuous deployment is simply a fact of life
• Continuous learning is the only way forward
Cloud Computing and Open Source are changing
how services are developed and delivered
