Brad Kirby, HP Converged Systems, and Marian Lakov, United Airlines, at HP Discover Barcelona 2013 with John Furrier and Dave Vellante
Brad Kirby, Group Manager for HP Converged Systems, and Marian Lakov, Principal Architect -- IT at United Airlines, discussed the implementation of HP OneView within the airline's infrastructure with theCUBE host Dave Vellante, live at the HP Discover conference in Barcelona.
Lakov explained he was an enterprise architect for the technology architectures at United Airlines. "What I cover is the platform infrastructure." data centers, hardware infrastructure, cloud, backup, SAN technologies etc.
Asked what changed in the industry in the last five to seven years, Lakov said "virtualization basically started ten years ago in the enterprise." With today's bandwidth and the connectivity that is out there, the cloud infrastructure has completely changed. "We started virtualizing heavily around 2008-2009″ using VMware and Microsoft Hypervisor. United Airlines is now focused on building its private cloud infrastructure.
Kirby explained that 80-90 percent of the United Airlines infrastructure is virtualized. Companies, he said, don't want to invest people's full time and effort in being craftsmen of infrastructure, instead they should design the next service and appliance that will bring business value. "They are looking at HP to craft the infrastructure and deliver it to them," and that is where converged infrastructure systems come into play, Kirby said.
It's delivered on site in 20 days and it's ready to receive workloads. "It's ready for you to go. Then you need something to manage all that, you need converged infrastructure management. With HP OneView, we allow the system administrator to define what the infrastructure is going to look like" through a template. "They can roll that template out across their converged infrastructure," Kirby went on.
Commenting on the OneView solutions, Kirby said "we actually redesigned it from the ground up to take advantage of the software defined approach."
