Maximize the elastic capabilities of cloud computing
Cloud on-boarding addresses business needs, such as a spike in demand, business continuity, and capacity optimization. Enterprises can use on-boarding to address capacity demands without the need to deploy additional infrastructure. Cloud on-boarding can be a very compelling practice for enterprises who want to maximize the elastic capabilities of cloud computing. For organizations looking to move data, applications, or integrated solutions from the data center to the cloud, it is often useful to start with the knowledge and experience gained from previous work. Join Citrix and Intel to learn how they have worked together to develop a cloud on-boarding reference architecture to address what your organization should consider and ease your transition to the cloud.
A Roadmap for Cloud On-Boarding Success
Moving applications to the cloud can be complex and many factors must be considered when moving an application to the cloud, but upfront planning, useful migration tools, and experience can help simplify the process. For enterprise IT professionals looking to move data, applications, or integrated solutions from the datacenter to the cloud, it is often useful to start with the knowledge and experience gained from previous work. Citrix and Intel worked together to develop a reference architecture outlining cloud on-boarding and why it is important. The paper also discusses on-boarding considerations, as well as the key software tools and applications to make the effort successful.
Hybrid Cloud Computing
Intel and Citrix have developed a solution that helps your organization take the pain out of integration challenges of this type. With this cloud on-boarding solution, organizations can move front-end application servers to the cloud while keeping sensitive back-end database servers secure in your data center. To showcase this solution at work, Citrix and Intel jointly developed an animated presentation that demonstrates how to configure a cloud on-boarding solution on servers equipped with Intel® Xeon® processors running Citrix XenServer® and VMware® vSphere™.
