6. Background and Problem Statement
Service Providers or Enterprises acting like Service Providers will use CPS* to host Applications for Tenants
WAP is the Tenant Experience for CPS
VMRoles are the method for deploying VMs + Application payload in WAP
Exchange and SharePoint do not support VMRoles for Production Deployments
VMRoles are: Single Tier, No Fixed Virtual Disks, etc.
*CPS is explained in more detail on the next slide.

7. Solution Goal / Scope Goal Scope
Deliver Production Supported Microsoft 1st Party Workloads using VMRoles.
Scope
Windows Azure Pack (WAP) Multi-Tier Service based on VMRoles to deploy production-ready Active Directory, Exchange, and SharePoint, leveraging Service Management Automation (SMA) and PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC).

8. Technology Experience Level Requirements
Experience to create/configure/modify/support these deployment artifacts would need to be pretty advanced (400+) and cover the following:
VMRole creation/modification (VMRAT)
SMA Runbook creation/modification (PowerShell Workflow)
DSC Configuration/Resource creation/modification (PowerShell DSC)

11. Solution Components SMA = Automation VMRoles = Provisioning
DSC = Deployment/Configuration

12. Technology / Architecture Decisions
Leverage VMRoles as the delivery mechanism for DSC, orchestrated by SMA*
Leverage DSC as the lowest common denominator for Application Deployment and VM Customization
Leverage SMA to perform all the pre-requisite tasks for the VMRoles themselves (VMRole dependency, VHD Attach, Network Creation, NAT Rule Creation, Connectivity Verification, etc.)
Basically…Everything outside the VM is handled by SMA, everything inside the VM is handled by DSC (unless it is an environmental prerequisite)
*SMA Runbooks are Invoked by WAP/SPF Events for Subscription.Create and MicrosoftCompute.VMRole.Create

13. Technology / Architecture Visualization
SMA = Automation
VMRoles = Provisioning
DSC = Deployment/Configuration
