Assessment Task
In the same group as you were in for Assessment 1, use the findings from Assessment 1 to develop
and design a cloud orchestration plan and write a 1200-word report.
Please refer to the Instructions section for details on how to complete this task.
Context
Cloud orchestration refers to managing and coordinating various cloud resources and services to
ensure the seamless operation of complex applications and workflows. It involves automating and
orchestrating the deployment, configuration, and management of cloud infrastructure, applications,
and services in a coordinated and efficient manner.
A cloud orchestration plan document is vital for the success of any cloud-based project. It offers
numerous benefits, some of which are listed below:
Clarity and Communication.
Strategic Alignment.
CLA321_Assessment 2_20240603 Page 1 of 8
Risk Mitigation.
Resource Optimisation.
Compliance and Governance.
Apart from the benefits mentioned above, the orchestration plan document provides benefits in
other areas, such as training and knowledge transfer, vendor management, collaboration and
accountability. It is a valuable resource that guides and supports effective cloud orchestration
practices.
In Assessment 2, you will prepare the cloud orchestration plan document to guide you through
Assessment 3. This assessment will also enable you to understand the best practices used in the
industry for cloud orchestration.
Instructions
You will continue working in the groups you formed for the Assessment 1 task.
For this assessment, you will need to apply the knowledge in various domains of cloud architecture
that you have gained through Modules 1 - 8. You must also cite current secondary research from the
past five (5) years using APA referencing to support your responses. They must be included in your
reference list.
To complete Assessment 2 successfully, you must complete the tasks below:
Task 1: Review the Group Contract
Please read your completed CLA321 Assessment 2 and 3 Group Contract. Refer to
sections 6.1 and 6.2 of the Student Conduct Policy.
For Assessment 2, you should keep records of communication and drafts.
Consult with your Learning Facilitator regarding any contribution or other issues.
Task 2: Review the case study and the findings from Assessment 1
Re-examine your findings from Assessment Task 1.
Carefully review the case study to understand the organisation’s cloud requirements.
Task 3: Produce a Cloud Orchestration Plan (1200 words)
Utilise the following structure to prepare the cloud orchestration plan document.
Include diagrams to demonstrate the key components of the orchestration plan.
a) Introduction (approx. 100 words)
- Outline the purpose and scope of the report.
- Provide an overview of cloud orchestration strategy and objectives.
- Identify key stakeholders and their roles.
b) Body (approx. 1000 words)
You should divide this section of the report into the following sub-sections:
CLA321_Assessment 2_20240603 Page 2 of 8
i) Cloud Environment Overview:
- Describe the current infrastructure (review of Assessment 1).
- Overview of the applications, workloads and data being managed.
ii) Orchestration Goals and Objectives:
- Define the goals and objectives of the cloud orchestration initiative.
- Alignment with organisational strategies and business requirements.
iii) Resource Provisioning Management:
- Discuss resource provisioning approaches, including virtual machines,
data storage and networking components.
- Establish guidelines for resource allocation, scaling and optimisation
based on demand (configuration management).
- Develop strategies for managing resource lifecycle, including
provisioning, monitoring, and decommissioning.
- Illustrate how resources, such as virtual machines, storage and
networking, are provisioned and scaled based on demand using visual
diagrams.
iv) Security and Compliance:
- Implement measures to ensure the security and compliance of the
orchestrated resources and services.
- Identify access control mechanisms and authentication methods.
- Illustrate the security measures and controls implemented in the cloud
orchestration environment using visual diagrams.
v) Monitoring and Alerting:
- Design plans for monitoring the health, performance, and availability of
orchestrated resources.
- Identify key metrics to be monitored and thresholds for triggering alerts.
- Illustrate the monitoring and alerting infrastructure and processes using
visual diagrams.
vi) Governance and Documentation:
- Determine policies and procedures for governance and management of
the orchestration environment.
c) Conclusion (100 words)
- Summarise your design and development findings.
d) Reference List
- Include in-text citations in your report and the references at the end of the
report. Adhere to APA style guidelines.
Referencing
It is essential that you use current APA style for citing and referencing the sources that you use.
Please see more information on citing and referencing guidelines on the Academic Skills webpage.
