  2. Background – Why the Azure cloud? In 2016 ENMAX IT Infrastructure launched a Data • Centre Transformation project as ENMAX had out grown our on premise data center This move was also consistent with a ‘cloud first’ • approach ENMAX was taking with respect to new technology spend Our IS support team assessed & moved various • applications/servers to Azure Project PRISM was also launched in 2016….our • ArcGIS/FM upgrade project

  3. PRISM - ArcGIS/FM Upgrade Upgraded GDB and Desktop from 9.2 to 10.2.1 • Implementation of ArcGIS/FM Server 10.4.1 / 10.2.1 • Implementation of ArcFM Web • Implementation of ArcFM Mobile iOS version • Implementation of FME Sever •

  4. GIS in Azure – PRISM Design  ESRIC provided a design that met our Azure requirement  A key design constraint associated with Azure implementations is higher network latency  Latency constraint is especially true for ArcGIS/FM Desktop which was designed to work on a Local Area Network (LAN) i.e. low network latency  For ArcFM Web & Mobile, that were designed to work over http and a WAN, this latency constraint does not exist  Significant aspect of our design is that ArcGIS/FM Desktop is in Azure…so it could be close to the GDB

  6. GIS in Azure – IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service)

  7. GIS in Azure - Build  LVS is our IT Infrastructure partner… spin up, manage, decomm VMs  18 PRD & 29 non-PRD VM servers running Windows Server 2012  40 VDIs running Windows 10  Changed our DB to SQL Server from Oracle  Our entire GIS technology stack is in Azure

  10. GIS in Azure – Operations & our Experience  GIS solution hosted in Azure has been transparent  Latency  Azure has proven scalable, reliable – one significant issue in 2 years  Storage has been a challenge but is improving  VDIs support staffing fluctuations & vendor engagements  Cost optimization – available but be prepared  Shutdown VMs https://qwazurevmtagging.cloudenmax.com/Default  Burstable VMs/VDIs  Reserved Instance 1 or 3 year (40% to 60% reduction)  High visibility of costs…available, show back – charge back

  13. Appendix A  What is a public cloud?  Public clouds are the most common way of deploying cloud computing. The cloud resources (like servers and storage) are owned and operated by a third-party cloud service provider and delivered over the Internet. Microsoft Azure is an example of a public cloud. With a public cloud, all hardware, software, and other supporting infrastructure is owned and managed by the cloud provider. In a public cloud, you share the same hardware, storage, and network devices with other organizations or cloud “tenants.”

  14. Appendix B

  15. Appendix C  How reservation discount is applied  A reservation discount is " use-it-or-lose-it ". So, if you don't have matching resources for any hour, then you lose a reservation quantity for that hour. You can't carry forward unused reserved hours.  When you shut down a resource, the reservation discount automatically applies to another matching resource in the specified scope. If no matching resources are found in the specified scope, then the reserved hours are lost .
