| Cloud Service Placement |
|
| Enhancing the Experience for Cloud Consumers | |
| by Huseni Saboowala | |
| The shift toward cloud-based services is accelerating, whether it be Infrastructure-at-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) or Software-as-a-Service (SaaS). We are seeing the emergence of Cloud Service Providers (CSPs), who are standing up massive data centers, delivering on the cloud’s promise of ubiquitous access, rapid elasticity and pay-per-use. A natural question emerges: How to identify the ideal geographical location for hosting the cloud services. | |

| SaaS Can Deliver Tremendous Value to Small-Medium Enterprises |
|
| by Amit Manghani | |
| Remaining nimble and flexible is key to success for small and medium enterprises. The leaders of small and medium enterprises are under constant pressure to continually deliver operational and financial improvements.The need to constantly improve, grow, compete and ensure compliance with constrained resources (i.e. time, money, staff, technology) is compelling the leaders of small and medium enterprises to explore technologies that will help them adapt and adjust quickly to rapidly evolving business and market conditions. Consequently software-as-a-service (SaaS), given its rapid deployment and instant consumption model, is gaining increasing prominence within this group. | |

| Can Cloud Computing Help Fix Health Care |
|
| by Scott Donahue | |
| Few topics have dominated the political news cycle over the past year more than health care reform. The recently passed Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is aimed at improving the quality, cost, and accessibility of health care in the United States – an indisputably massive but much-needed undertaking. This article discusses how cloud computing may end up mending a health care system that has largely let a decade of IT innovation pass by and now finds itself trapped in inefficiency and stifled by legacy IT systems. | |

| Counting the Cloud |
|
| by Guy Rosen | |
| Indeed, cloud computing has spawned lots of talk bordering on hype (or is it the other way around?). Not to mention, it seems like just about everyone is re-positioning their products to somehow include cloud in their brands. But where are the hard, real numbers? | |

| Who Controls the Cloud Market - Providers or Consumers? |
|
|||
| January 28 2013 |
||||
|
||||
| We first went from reserving cloud capacity to securing capacity on-demand, and then we even started to bid for unused capacity in the spot market – all in an effort to decrease cost in the cloud. Can we take this one step further? Instead of us bidding for capacity, wouldn't it be interesting if we can get providers to bid for our demand? |

| The Cloud in HP’s Cloud (Part 2): HP Discover, the Enterprise and AWS Cloud |
|
|||
| January 09 2013 |
||||
|
||||
| Last month I attended HP Discover (disclosure: my participation was funded by Ivy World). The IT war already started however HP stands still not taking initiatives and real risks as true leaders should take. At the three-day conference I learned why some companies don’t last and why this IT giant is at a great risk of losing in this new era IT battle. This is a story of a lasting company that might have already lost. |

| 5 Enterprise Cloud Predictions for 2013 |
|
|||
| January 01 2013 |
||||
|
||||
| I believe that this is the year when the enterprise will find its way to the cloud.
The mega Internet sites and applications are the new era enterprises. These will become the role models for the traditional enterprise. IT needs remain the same with regards to scale, security, SLA, etc. However, the traditional enterprise CIO has already set the goal for next year: 100% efficiency.
The traditional CIO understands that in order to achieve that goal, IT will need to start and do cloud, make sure that IT resources are utilized right, and that his teams move fast. |

| Why the Cost of Sales Gap is Shrinking between SaaS and Legacy Software Vendors |
|
|||
| November 26 2012 |
||||
|
||||
| Today’s leading Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) companies continue to steal share from their legacy, independent software vendor (ISV) counterparts due to rising demand for their cloud-based application alternatives. However, many of those offering enterprise SaaS solutions are also seeing their sales costs rise as well. This is raising some serious questions about the short- and long-term profitability of the SaaS model compared with its traditional, on-premises predecessor. This commentary examines the industry implications of these trends. |

| The Hard Part About Rolling Up Clouds |
|
|||
| November 11 2012 |
||||
|
||||
| Oracle's (Nasdaq: ORCL) recent acquisition of RightNow (Nasdaq: RNOW) raises a question: Can multiple cloud companies be merged together to form a tightly coupled suite of solutions like those which were promised but never delivered during the client-server era? On the face of things, it would appear that merging cloud companies together should be relatively easy and straightforward since many of them already interconnect with the advent of application program interfaces (APIs). Alas, not every cloud company is built the same. Like snowflakes, cloud company architectures, programming languages and a myriad of other operational pieces and parts can differ dramatically. |

| Channeling New Cloud Opportunities |
|
|||
| November 11 2012 |
||||
|
||||
| Channel companies must accept that the cloud fundamentally disrupts their traditional business models. They must recognize that meeting their customers' rising expectations requires transforming their go-to-market strategies and services. It changes the skills required, the sales tactics, the value propositions and service delivery methodologies. This article discusses the channel opportunities and challenges which were examined at the second annual Cloud Channel Summit on November 5, 2012. |

| Future of Cloud Computing in 2013 |
|
|||
| October 29 2012 |
||||
|
||||
| Cloud is hot, cloud is here to stay and no matter how inefficient and insecure you feel it is, you would not like to miss any update on cloud. Probably 2012 is the year when cloud market has faced many negative allegations too for example cloud marketing is blamed of misleading the clients and users. Cloud was called the victim of over marketing. At the same time businesses have realized that cloud computing is not just about going on-premise to off-premise for saving few thousand dollars but it is a complete business transformation strategy. Cloud, Mobile application development and big data was the popular trio of the year.
Now year is about to end. So where cloud computing is heading in 2013? What is the future of cloud computing especially what are the major shifts taking place and what form it would take in 2013 and coming years? Following are the complete details:

|
|||
| August 23 2012 |
||||
|
||||
| As befitting any great online vendor, Amazon cloud product guys listen carefully to their market targets and ensure fast implementation and delivery to satisfy their needs. It is clear that Amazon cloud is eager to conquer the enterprise market, as I already mentioned in my past post, “Amazon AWS is the Cloud (for now anyway)”. |

| @IAmOnDemand View on CloudConnect 2012 |
|
|||
| July 03 2012 |
||||
|
||||
| Last week I attended one of the most popular cloud technology conferences in the world – CloudConnect. The CloudConnect conference started about four years ago. Attending the event gave me a clear understanding of the market maturity and evolution rhythm. Check out the following sections for the main points on what I learned:
1 - Cloud Performance is important
2 - That DevOps doesn’t exist
3 - The Openness of Cloud - You must be open in order to be in the cloud
4 - That“Amazon is Princess White”
5 - The the best presentations are like movies; they should be based on real cases
I invite you to read more.

| Secure Environment for Federal Government Cloud Pilot |
|
|||
| April 30 2012 |
||||
|
||||
| How is the Federal government hoping to achieve the $12 Billion in projected annual savings? This projection was quoted by the MeriTalk Cloud Computing Exchange and published today by Forbes.com, and it doesn’t seem too optimistic given that the Federal government is already saving approximately $5.5 Billion per year.
These savings have been achieved by individual agencies adopting cloud solutions, but such organic growth will only go so far. In order to expand this in a generic and scalable manner, the Federal government would need a secure environment to test the cloud and run pilot programs. |

| Vertical Cloud Computing |
|
|||
| March 20 2012 |
||||
|
||||
| Cloud computing is disruptive innovation which enables a fundamental shift from Capex to Opex model. It separates application and information resources from the underlying infrastructure, and the mechanisms used to deliver them.
A vertical cloud, or vertical cloud computing, is the phrase used to describe the optimization of cloud computing and cloud services for a particular vertical (e.g., a specific industry).
The cloud provider will offer specialized functions and options that best meet industry-use and specifications. Today, the vertical health-care cloud is one of the more well-established vertical clouds. |

| Integrated Cloud Framework and Social Management or Crowdsourcing the easy way |
|
|||
| March 01 2011 |
||||
|
||||
| Crowdsourcing is one of the real examples of shifting paradigm between IT Worlds created exclusively for Business Purposes and Society following their global goals. Crowd is in physical world depended on proximity, in virtual world the communities are able to connect together anytime, anywhere in the world and most important, they are growing and acting exponentially cumulating their “crowd power” by socializing and following community goals.
What makes CrowdSourcing so powerful is the broad participation that takes place at relatively no costs. Solutions are generated from volunteers or freelance professionals who get paid only if you use their ideas.
The most famous example of Crowdsourcing is Wikipedia, collaboration of millions people, concentrated around one goal – to describe world around us in structured way; following integrated semantic and reference rules, driven by volunteers. Contribution model is literally spread out into all social levels and geographically speaking – everybody is contributor of this Collective Intelligence product. |

Cloud Computing: How Client Devices Affect the User Expereince |
|
|||
| October 18 2010 |
||||
|
||||
| The growth of Cloud Computing, along with the consumerisation of IT, is driving enterprises to support a compute continuum in which users will increasingly be able to access applications and services using a spectrum of client devices in a variety of form factors. Whilst mobile business PCs remain employees' primary client devices, other devices such as smartphones and tablets are being enabled. Providing employees with the freedom to use these devices, in addition to mobile business PCs, further enhances mobility and increases productivity. This paper presents the results of research and analysis to compare the user experience with different client devices when accessing a range of cloud-based applications to illustrate their value with respect to mobility and productivity. |

The Future of Cloud Computing: Opportunities for European Cloud Computing Beyond 2010 |
|
|||
| January 23 2010 |
||||
|
||||
| This document provides a detailed analysis of Europe’s position with respect to cloud provisioning, and how this affects in particular future research and development in this area. The report is based on a series of workshops involving experts from different areas related to cloud technologies.
In more detail, the identified opportunities are: (1) Provisioning and further development of Cloud infrastructures, where in particular telecommunication companies are expected to provide offerings; (2) Provisioning and advancing cloud platforms, which the telecommunication industry might see as a business opportunity, as well as large IT companies with business in Europe and even large non-IT businesses with hardware not fully utilized. (3) Enhanced service provisioning and development of meta-services: Europe could and should develop a ‘free market for IT services’ to match those for movement of goods, services, capital, and skills. Again telecommunication industry could supplement their services as ISPs with extended cloud capabilities; (4) provision of consultancy to assist businesses to migrate to, and utilize effectively, clouds. This implies also provision of a toolset to assist in analysis and migration. |

| Subscription Software Licensing: The Future Is Now |
|
|||
| February 18 2009 |
||||
|
||||
| This IDC study presents IDC's recommendations for vendors that are considering offering a subscription licensing option for customers. In particular, the focus is on vendors that have historically offered perpetual licensing as their predominate approach. While the ideal time to start transitioning toward flexible licensing models like subscription was probably three to four years ago, major licensing changes within established software companies happen at a glacial pace and there is probably still time to play catch-up. The key for vendors considering making changes to their licensing approach is to focus on the needs of existing and future customers. |
