Cloud Computing Patterns t Compute Inactivity Period t t t On and Off On & off workloads (e.g. batch job) Over provisioned capacity is wasted Time to market can be cumbersome Unpredictable Bursting Unexpected/unplanned peak in demand Sudden spike impacts performance Can’t over provision for extreme cases Compute Growing Fast Successful services needs to grow/scale Keeping up w/ growth is big IT challenge Cannot provision hardware fast enough Compute Predictable Bursting Services with micro seasonality trends Peaks due to periodic increased demand IT complexity and wasted capacity Compute

Virtual Machine Availability
Service Level Agreements 99.9% for single role instances 8.75 hours of downtime per year What’s included Compute Hardware failure (disk, cpu, memory) Datacenter failures - Network failure, power failure Hardware upgrades, Software maintenance – Host OS Updates Planned downtime – 6 day notice, 6 hour window, 25 minute downtime What is not included VM crashes caused by 3 rd party software, Guest OS Updates 99.95% for multiple role instances 4.38 hours of downtime per year
Fault and Update Domains Fault Domains Represent groups of resources anticipated to fail together i.e. Same rack, same server Fabric spreads instances across fault at least 2 fault domains Update Domains Represents groups of resources that will be updated together Host OS updates honour service update domains Specified in service definition Default of 5 (up to 20) Fabric spreads role instances across Update Domains and Fault Domains
Fault and Update Domains
