Case study: Bob, the public cloud provider
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
Bob is a lead architect for a company that deploys a large greenfield
|
||||
public cloud. This cloud provides IaaS for the masses and enables any
|
||||
consumer with a valid credit card access to utility computing and
|
||||
storage, but the primary focus is enterprise customers. Data privacy
|
||||
concerns are a big priority for Bob as they are seen as a major barrier
|
||||
to large-scale adoption of the cloud by organizations.
|
||||
Bob is the lead architect for a company deploying a new public cloud,
|
||||
focused on Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). While this cloud will be
|
||||
open for any consumer with a valid credit card to have access to utility
|
||||
computing and storage, the primary focus will be enterprise customers.
|
||||
This means Bob's primary certification concern is PCI compliance, and
|
||||
his tooling will be developed around the auditing and reporting there,
|
||||
as well as the specific domains included in the PCI audit. As Bob's team
|
||||
is technically skilled in the Linux domain, he will be utilizing LDAP
|
||||
for federation. With plans to scale the cloud rapidly, Bob selects an
|
||||
open source log management deployment built for large-volumes of events
|
||||
with a highly customizable view. Data privacy and security concerns are
|
||||
the top barrier to adoption of the cloud, so Bob will also implement
|
||||
strict internal processes and two-factor authentication around
|
||||
sensitive assets, as well as allowing customers to leverage this for
|
||||
logins as well.
