Case Study: 2
NorthwindTraders
Overview
Northwind Traders is a retail company.
The company has offices in North America, Europe, and Asia.
The company plans to implement a private cloud solution that uses System Center 2012 R2.
Existing Environment
Network Infrastructure
Northwind Traders has a single data center that contains an internal network and a perimeter
network. The networks are separated by a firewall. The relevant portion of the network is
shown in the exhibit. (Click the Exhibit button.)

The networks contain the network devices shown in the following table.

The network contains an Active Directory forest named northwindtraders.com. The forest
contains servers that run either Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, or
Windows Server 2008 R2.
Northwind Traders uses Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) to deploy updates to all
of the servers in the data center. WSUS is installed on a server named NWT-WSUS01.
The network contains as the servers shown in the following table.

Virtualization Infrastructure
Northwind Traders has Hyper-V hosts that run either Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows
Server 2012. The Hyper-V hosts contain virtual machines that are used on the network.
The current System Center 2012 infrastructure does not use any cloud settings in VMM.
Application Infrastructure
Northwind Traders develops several web applications by using the Microsoft .NET
Framework. The company also hosts a third-party UNIX-based web application on the
perimeter network.
Planned Implementation
Network Infrastructure
Northwind Traders plans to upgrade all physical servers to Windows Server 2012 R2.
Northwind Traders also plans to upgrade all of the System Center 2012 components to
System Center 2012 R2 and to deploy all of the System Center components that are not
deployed already.
The company plans to deploy the new System Center 2012 R2 servers shown in the following
table.

NWT-SCOM2 will be deployed to the perimeter network
Virtualization Infrastructure
After the planned deployment of System Center 2012 R2, Northwind Traders plans to move
all virtual machines to four new private clouds named IT, Sales, Finance, and Corporate.
Northwind Traders also plans to virtualize all of the servers that run SharePoint Server 2013.
Northwind Traders plans to provide a runbook-based solution for application developers to
create virtual machines in a test environment.
Northwind Traders also plans to implement a chargeback solution for the virtual machines
used by the IT, Sales, and Finance departments.
Monitoring Solution
After the planned deployment of System Center 2012 R2, Northwind Traders plans to
implement the following monitoring solutions:
• Generate reports that provide details about the virtual machines, the storage
pools, and the network devices used in the private clouds.
• Monitor the availability, CPU usage, and memory usage of all the network
devices in the data center.
• Monitor the performance of all the SharePoint servers by using a single
dashboard.
Updates Solution
After the planned deployment of System Center 2012 R2, Northwind Traders plans to
manage updates from System Center 2012 R2 and to integrate the existing WSUS server into
the System Center 2012 R2 infrastructure.

Box 1:

Box 2:

Box 3:

If you want to use integration packs (IPs) that extend the capabilities of Orchestrator, such as
integration of other platforms and tools (for example, HP Service Manager), you need to register and
deploy them into your Orchestrator environment. This can be done using the
Deployment Manager, a tool that is used to deploy runbook servers and Runbook Designers.
The Orchestrator Runbook Designer shown in Figure 2-1 is a graphical interface for authoring
runbooks (source same pdf page 5)
The Orchestrator Runbook Tester is another key feature that assists in the runbook design process
by providing the ability to test runbook functionality prior to implementation of your runbooks in a
production environment (source same pdf page 7)
