Cloud Transition, Azure Adoption and Azure Foundation

Published on Januar 19, 2019April 28, 2019 by Nisanth RajahLeave a comment

The Adoption of a cloud platform in an organization requires identifying and mastering the strategic, organizational and technical challenges.

The Adoption of Azure Cloud Plattform can be divided into two steps. The first one is to build up the Azure Foundation and the second one is to build up new Solutions with Azure Services.

The Azure Foundation consists of three pillars that support the entire Azure Cloud platform of customers, including Azure Governance, Azure Core Infrastructure and Azure Operations.

The first pillar “Azure Governance” includes resource Organization, resource Security, auditing and cost Controls.

The second pillar “Azure Core Infrastruktur” includes identity & access management, connectivity, Azure network, Security Management and System Management.

The third pillar “Azure Operations” includes Cloud Service Management and infrastructure Automation.

These three pillars build the Foundation for customers Azure Environment and are ready to carry the new Azure Solutions

As an Azure Solution, a modern environment can be designed and implemented according to business or IT requirements in Azure or Hybrid with OnPremises. e.g. the extension of the OnPrem Datacenter in Azure, compute workloads with VM’s or system/service/application deployment using IaaS as well as PaaS components. The Azure Solutions are offered as Managed Services according to business requests or partly also by the internal IT organization for the business.

Azure Site Recovery Planner für VMware vCenter OnPremise

Published on September 10, 2018September 10, 2018 by Nisanth RajahLeave a comment

Azure Site Recovery Deployment Planner einsetzen

Azure Site Recovery bietet die Möglichkeit virtuelle sowie physische Maschinen nach Azure zu Replizieren, mit Azure Site Recovery Deployment Planner ist es möglich z.B. die Kompatibilität der Virtuellen Maschinen in einer VMware Umgebung nach Azure zu prüfen und eine Kostenschätzung nach definierten RPO zu erstellen. Dazu wird auch der Sizing von OnPremise Azure Site Recovery Infrastruktur vorgeschlagen.

Hinweise

Auf der Maschine welches für Report Generierung verwendet wird, muss MS Excel installiert sein.
Azure Storage Konto für den Datendurchsatz Test erstellen und Access Key bereithalten
VMware vSphere PowerCLI
vCenter Admin User

Profiling – Informationen aus der vCenter sammeln

Vorbereitung für das Profiling – VM Liste erstellen

Set-ExecutionPolicy –ExecutionPolicyset- AllSigned

Add-PSSnapin VMware.VimAutomation.Core

Connect-VIServer -Server <server name> -User name> -Password

Get-VM | Select Name | Sort-Object -Property Name > <outputfile.txt>

Outputfile Beispiel:

Name
----
vm001
vm002
vm003
vm004
vm005

Profiling starten

Beispiel 1 – Profile VMs for 30 days, and find the throughput from on-premises to Azure

ASRDeploymentPlanner.exe -Operation StartProfiling -Virtualization VMware -Directory “E:\vCenter1_ProfiledData” -Server vCenter1.contoso.com -VMListFile “E:\vCenter1_ProfiledData\ProfileVMList1.txt” -NoOfDaysToProfile 30 -User vCenterUser1 -StorageAccountName asrspfarm1 -StorageAccountKey Eby8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw==

Beispiel 2 – Profile VMs for 15 days

Beispiel 3 – Profile VMs for 60 minutes for a quick test of the tool

Beispiel 4 – Profile VMs for 2 hours for a proof of concept

Report erstellen

Beispiel 1 – Generate a report with default values when the profiled data is on the local drive

ASRDeploymentPlanner.exe -Operation GenerateReport -Virtualization VMware -Server vCenter1.contoso.com -Directory “E:\vCenter1_ProfiledData” -VMListFile “E:\vCenter1_ProfiledData\ProfileVMList1.txt”

Beispiel 2 – Generate a report when the profiled data is on a remote server

ASRDeploymentPlanner.exe -Operation GenerateReport -Virtualization VMware -Server vCenter1.contoso.com -Directory “\\PS1-W2K12R2\vCenter1_ProfiledData” -VMListFile “\\PS1-W2K12R2\vCenter1_ProfiledData\ProfileVMList1.txt”

Beispiel 3 – Generate a report for 5-minute RPO

Datendurchsatz von OnPremise nach Azure eruieren

ASRDeploymentPlanner.exe -Operation GetThroughput -Virtualization VMware -Directory E:\vCenter1_ProfiledData -VMListFile E:\vCenter1_ProfiledData\ProfileVMList1.txt -StorageAccountName asrspfarm1 -StorageAccountKey by8vdM02xNOcqFlqUwJPLlmEtlCDXJ1OUzFT50uSRZ6IFsuFq2UVErCz4I6tq/K1SZFPTOtr/KBHBeksoGMGw==
