Tiivistelmä
The goal of this thesis was to create a development environment for Lounea’s Public Cloud infrastructure for testing and development purposes. Lounea is a telecommunications company founded in 1887 as Oy Salo-Turku-Paimio puhelinyhdistys. Lounea has increased it’s focus in datacenter operations during the past years and public cloud services are a part of it. The objective was to analyze the current infrastructure and, based on the result, plan and implement a functional development environment with similar configuration. This thesis focuses on the design of a public cloud infrastructure created using VMware products to create a Software Define Datacenter for customer production virtual machines. The development environment had to have similar functionality as the production envionrment for results to be valid in both environments.
The thesis resulted in a functional VMware public cloud infrastructure built on legacy hardware dedicated for this purpose. The installation has later been used to plan and implement major version upgrades of the production environment with minimal downtime.
