Article by Intel Data Center Management Solutions senior application engineer Rami Radi.

For many of todays applications and workloads, cloud computing offers the enterprise a host of advantages over traditional data centers, including lowered operational and capital expenditures, improved time to market, and the ability to dynamically adjust provisioning to meet changing needs globally. Consequently, there has been a massive shift to cloud migration over the past decade, with cloud computing trends showing significant year-over-year growth since it was first introduced, and Cisco predicting that by 2021 cloud data centers will process 94%of all workloads.

According to MarketsandMarkets, the global cloud computing market is projected to surge at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18 percent to reach approximately $623.3 billion by 2023, up from $272 billion in 2018.

Today, however, we are seeing more companies bringing workloads back into their data centers or edge environments after having them run in the cloud for several years because they didnt originally fully understand their suitability in a cloud environment. 451 Research has referred to this dynamic as cloud repatriation, and a recent survey found that 20% of cloud users had already moved at least one or more of their workloads from the public cloud to a private cloud, and another 40 percent planned to do so in the near future.

All of this begs a deceivingly simple question: How do I know when a workload would be better off running in or outside of the cloud?

When latency, availability, and control are key

As with any IT decision, an inadequately researched, planned and tested process is likely to cause setbacks for enterprise end-users when the organization at large is faced with uncertainty whether to move an application or workload out of the public cloud and return it to an on-premises data center or edge environment.

Very often, moving an application or workload from the cloud makes good business sense when critical operational benchmarks are not being met. This might mean inconsistent application performance, high network latency due to congestion, or concerns about data security. For example, we know of one Fortune 500 financial services firm that was pursuing an initiative to move its applications and data to the public cloud and only later discovered that its corporate policy prohibited placement of personally identifiable information (PII) and other sensitive data beyond their internal network/firewall. Although many security standards are supported by public cloud providers, because of its internal policy, the financial organization opted to keep its data on-premises.

Some companies, such as Dropbox, have chosen to migrate from the public cloud to benefit their bottom line. While cost is but one criterion for leaving, it is a major one. In the wake of leaving the cloud, Dropbox was able to save nearly $75 million over two years.

Generally speaking, applications that are latency sensitive or have datasets which are large and require transport between various locations for processing are prime candidates for repatriation. Consider smart cities and IoT-enabled systems, which create enormous amounts of data. While cloud computing provides a strong enabling platform for these next-gen technologies because it provides the necessary scale, storage and processing power, edge computing environments will be needed to overcome limitations in latency and the demand for more local processing.

Additionally, if your applications and databases require very high availability or redundancy, they may be best suited to private or hybrid clouds. Repatriation also provides improved control over the applications and enables IT to better plan for potential problems.

Yes, moving to the cloud means a decrease in rack space, power usage and IT requirements, which results in lower installation, hardware, and upgrade costs. Moreover, cloud computing does liberate IT staff from ongoing maintenance and support tasks, freeing them to focus on building the business in more innovative ways. And yet, while many businesses are attracted to the gains associated with public or hybrid cloud models, they often do not fully appreciate the strategy necessary to optimize their performance. Fortunately, there are tools to assist IT teams to better understand how their cloud infrastructure is performing.

Demystifying cloud decision-making

No matter the shape of an organizations cloud public, private or hybrid data center management solutions can provide IT staff with greater visibility and real-time insight into power usage, thermal consumption, server health and utilization. Among the key benefits are better operational control, infrastructure optimization and reduced costs.

Before any organization moves its data to the public cloud, the IT staff needs to understand how its systems perform internally. The unique requirements of its applications, including memory, processing power and operating systems, should determine what it provisions in the cloud. Data center management solutions collect and normalize data to help teams understand their current implementation on-premise, empowering them to make more informed decisions as to what is necessary in a new cloud configuration.

IntelData Center Manager is a software solution that collects and analyzes the real-time health, power, and thermals of a variety of devices in data centers. Providing the clarity needed to improve data center reliability and efficiency, including identifying underlying hardware issues before they impact uptime, these tools bring invaluable insight to increasingly cloudy enterprise IT environments, demystifying the question of on-premises, public and hybrid cloud decision-making.

Here are some factors to consider when making a decision about embarking on a course of cloud repatriation:

Are you wasting money paying for capacity that is not being used? Are you experiencing regular performance and availability issues? Are you required to meet certain regulatory compliance standards? Do your workloads require low latencies? Do you have the IT staff bandwidth to take control of your workloads?

If you answered yes to a majority of the questions above, it might be time to consider cloud repatriation.

When the cloud falls to earth, it could be time for cloud repatriation - IT Brief New Zealand

The Cloud Native Computing Foundation has published the results of its annual survey conducted in October 2019. Among the 1337 respondents, 37% were from Europe, 38% from North America and 17% were from Asia. The survey respondents included architects, DevOps managers and backend developers.

Containers

Here are 15 interesting takeaways from the CNCF annual survey.

1. Kubernetes usage in production is skyrocketing

Compared to last year, Kubernetes usage in production has seen a dramatic rise. 78% of respondents are using Kubernetes in production, an impressive growth compared to 58% last year. Most of those testing Kubernetes last year moved into production resulting in a decrease of 48% in the evaluation.

CNCF Projects

2. Customers are running at least 2 to 5 Kubernetes clusters in production

43% of the respondents mentioned that they run anywhere between 2 to 5 Kubernetes clusters in production. This is expected to grow in the coming months.

Kubernetes Clusters

3. Public cloud is the most preferred destination while the hybrid cloud is gaining momentum

The majority (62%) of the respondents are running their workloads in the public cloud with remaining running in a hybrid cloud environment. With the push on Kubernetes-based hybrid cloud platforms, we will see an increase in the hybrid cloud adoption next year.

Infrastructure Choice

4. Containers are making their way to the production environments

According to CNCF, 84% of respondents are using containers in production, an impressive jump from 73% in 2018, and from 23% in the first survey conducted in 2016. Given the interest in microservices, Its not surprising to see a massive increase in container usage.

Container Usage

5. Amazon EKS is used by most respondents followed by GKE and AKS

AWS continues to be the most preferred cloud to run containers and Kubernetes. 29% of the respondents are using Amazon Elastic Kubernetes (EKS) service. Within the 17% of Kops users, there would be clusters provisioned on Amazon EC2 making AWS the top cloud platform for Kubernetes. Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) is very close with 28% of respondents using it as the CaaS. Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) combined with the legacy ACS Engine got decent traction of about 25% adoption from the respondents.

Container Orchestration

6. Developers are facing a cultural challenge in embracing containers and cloud native

Cultural challenges with the development team, security, complexity, readiness and monitoring are the top 5 challenges in adopting cloud native technologies.

Challenges in Using Cloud Native

7. Istio is the top service mesh used by early adopters

CNCF introduced a new survey category on service mesh. Only 18% of respondents are using it in production while 47% of respondents are evaluating the use of a service mesh. Istio followed by Consul are the most popular service mesh platforms.Consuls usage in production is higher because of the varied use cases it supports. Many deployments use Consul as a key/value database instead of service mesh.

Service Mesh

8. Block storage services in the public cloud is the de facto storage engine

With stateful workloads becoming mainstream on Kubernetes, storage becomes the key. Given that most of the workloads on running in the public cloud, its not surprising to see the cloud-based block storage services are the most preferred backends for stateful workloads running in production.

Storage Choices

9. AWS Lambda is the most popular Functions as a Service (FaaS) platform

Though not directly related to Kubernetes, customers are using Functions as a Service (FaaS) along with containers. AWS Lambda took a huge lead with Google Cloud Functions and Azure Functions as distant second and third.

Serverless Platforms

10. Knative gets the top slot in Kubernetes-based serverless platform

Event-driven, serverless frameworks on Kubernetes are gaining traction among cloud native developers. With 34% of respondents voting for Knative, it is the most popular serverless framework followed by OpenFaaS, Kubeless and Virtual Kubelet.

Serverless on Kubernetes

11. Helm is the most preferred tool for packaging Kubernetes applications

Helm is touted as the apt-get install of Kubernetes. Its not at all surprising to see Helm as the most popular packaging tool for Kubernetes.

Packaging Choices

12. Nginx is the leading ingress provider

Nginx and Nginx Plus as ingress are used by most of the Kubernetes users. Envoy as a standalone ingress is also growing fast.

Ingress Usage

13. Minikube is the most favorite Kubernetes environment

Minikube is the reason why Kubernetes has become accessible to developers. Though Docker Desktop has Kubernetes embedded in it, many developers still prefer Minikube.

Kubernetes Dev Environment

14. Prometheus and CoreDNS are the fastest-growing CNCF projects

Within the graduated projects of CNCF, Prometheus and CoreDNS are fastest growing after Kubernetes. Prometheus is becoming the de facto for collecting and aggregating the metrics while CoreDNS provides naming services for the cluster.

CNCF Projects

15. The etcd database is the most widely used CNCF incubating projet

Kubernetes clusters rely on an in-memory, distributed database for maintaining the state. The etcd project, which is currently in the incubation stage, is found in almost in every Kubernetes deployment. Many projects and applications rely on etcd due to its smaller footprint and simplified management.
