HPE Rises to Multi-Cloud Management Challenge

Avatar photoBy: Mike Vizard on January 8, 2018 1 Comment

Hewlett-Packard Enterprise (HPE) is making available a suite of tools to unify the management of public and private clouds via a software-as-service (SaaS) applications.

Bryan Jacquot, HPE worldwide user experience architect, says HPE OneSphere provides IT organizations with a means to manage a multi-cloud IT environment using a SaaS application they can consume in the same on-demand manner they employ to deploy cloud applications on-premises or on a public cloud service.

HPE OneSphere makes uses of application programming interfaces (APIs) to unify the management of diverse IT environments under a common software-defined framework.

Within that management application, HPE has also provided Project workspaces for different types of individuals and teams, including IT operations, business users, developers and data scientists.

Jacquot says HPE makes use of Docker and Kubernetes container technologies to provide the foundation for HPE OneSphere. The goal is to make it easier for IT organizations to manage any combination of hybrid cloud computing environment they choose to craft.

To one degree or another, most IT environments today are multi-cloud. They typically employ at least one public cloud alongside an on-premises IT environment that is becoming more cloud-like. At the same time, many IT organizations either already have or are planning to add an additional public cloud service, if for no other reason than to play Amazon Web Services (AWS) against Microsoft Azure. However, each stack of public and private cloud computing requires them to master a separate management plane, which drives up the total cost of ownership (TCO) of an IT environment—which creates a challenge at a time when many IT organizations are looking for both lower costs and increased agility. Through OneSphere, however, HPE is resolving that issue by providing access to one common management portal for both on-premises IT environment and public cloud services, says Jacquot.

There are other means to develop a common management plane spanning multiple clouds. But building, deploying and maintaining a management framework spanning multiple clouds can be a complicated endeavor. HPE OneSphere presents IT organizations with a portal through which all the underlying APIs are abstracted away from the IT operations team, making the process simpler, says Jacquot.

It’s unclear at what rate IT organizations will move to unify the management of multiple clouds in 2018. Different parts of an organization often fund adoption of different classes of public cloud services. At the some point internal IT teams are tasked with managing those services. But the constitutional crises that drive those events might not occur until 2019 or beyond within many organizations.

Regardless of the approach taken to managing multiple clouds, there’s no doubt that the distribution of application workloads across multiple internal and external platforms represents arguably the biggest DevOps challenge of 2018. Organizations that get in front of this issue today are likely to find managing IT to be much easier in the years ahead. Those that don’t are likely to experience more pain than they might have ever bargained.
