Develop an on-premise private cloud architecture design with cost and security analysis

[brittnylapierre]

Rationale

Will clarify the resource requirements for an on-premise private cloud and ensure we have a plan for the system to be both scalable and secure.

Outcomes

• Architecture Design

A detailed architectural framework for on-premise private cloud utilizing technologies such as Portainer Docker Swarm, RedHat OpenShift, and Oracle Private Cloud Appliance. Documentation outlining system components, including networking, storage, and compute resources.

• Future Scalability Plan

An outline of strategies for scaling the private cloud architecture to accommodate future growth for each platform being considered.

• Security Assessment

A detailed security analysis addressing potential vulnerabilities and threats associated with each platform. Recommendations for security best practices and compliance measures to safeguard data and applications within the private cloud.

• Deployment Strategy

A step-by-step dev/ops deployment plan for implementing and maintaining the private cloud architecture for each platform being considered.

• Cost Analysis Report

A thorough cost analysis comparing the implementation and operational costs of technologies being considered.

• Performance Benchmarking

Recommendations for performance tuning and scaling based on anticipated workloads for each platform, as well as an outline of the metrics and benchmarks that will be used to evaluate the performance of the private cloud in each case.

Issues

• Create a detailed architecture of a fully on-premise OpenStack cloud architecture for Canadiana #8
• Create an upfront and evergreening cost analysis for on-premise cloud architecture #9
