Level of Manageability Required!
The capability to integrate a cloud service with your current processes and automation systems can be a major competitive advantage. Inspect what all measurements, integration and reporting abilities (API, email, web-services etc.) are available. These will also help you in managing your internal SLAs if required.
7) Location of Physical infrastructure!
The location of physical infrastructure is an important aspect that you should be aware of, especially if you are regulated. Addressing how to migrate or fetch data from the cloud service is also an important aspect to answer in context of a possible Disaster Recovery scenario.
The distance to a cloud service provider does impacts your ability to integrate existing systems. It majorly affects latency and cost of networking. Some of the established providers like Google Cloud Platform are deploying localized solutions in Europe, Asia and the United States.
8) Level of Scalability Needed
In order to gauge cloud solution scalability and to measure software application capability & performance on hosted cloud platforms, you need to know about the Bursting. If you burst, how much will you burst?
Cloud application & service vendors provide benchmark of performance ratios for total leased infrastructure and ensures maximized application hosting. However, a well-designed, scalable, flexible and a reliable architecture easily handles network traffic and computing requirements, whereas, a poorly-designed architecture will falter when subjected to resource-hungry applications.
The time to scale hugely depends upon the time required for a system to boot. It can take 5 to 15 minutes, which can be too slow for some use cases. Other workloads require the use of hundreds & thousands of cores. Don’t expect any of the provider to have a true “unlimited” resources.
Judge long-term needs when it comes to scaling up or down, and map those needs to your provider’s capabilities and roadmaps.
9. How much is this going to cost me?
One of the major challenge with all the available options today is to standardize the offerings and get a fair comparison. Providers differs not only in functionality, but also in billing & metering methods.
To address this challenge you should use pricing benchmarks to compare different offerings. For example:
Compute benchmark: 4 Core (@3.0GHz) with 4GB RAM costs $x /Instance/month
Storage benchmark: Costing of 1 GB Usable storage, SAN/NAS based on 10TB base infrastructure = $x /GB/month
Backup benchmark ($x /GB backed-up)
Network benchmark: ($x /GB/Month transferred in or out)
10. No really, how much is this going to cost me?
The cost profile of a cloud solution is highly influenced by long term considerations apart from the standard operational cost that is required to run a project on the cloud.
You need to consider following below mentioned points as well:
Do I need to re-architect an application to gain advantage of the new business model?
What would be the ROI over the time?
What cost would be required to reorganize IT around this new compute & storage paradigm?
Do I need to invest in any other or new skills?
