HP has helped many businesses implement the cloud to achieve real benefits. Here are a few examples:
• Mahindra created a shared services environment using HP CloudSystem to enable nimble deployment of application
platforms for different R&D needs.
• SFR quickly brought to market a complete infrastructure as a service (IaaS) platform based on HP CloudSystem.
• Using HP CloudSystem, Hostworks created a highly resilient shared services facility to accommodate its customer base
load. Hostworks can now implement a common virtualized infrastructure that scales quickly to deliver new programs.
• Using a private cloud transformation based on HP CloudSystem, FICO created a global product development center of excellence.

Amazon Outage: Is it a Story of a Conspiracy? – Chapter 2 |

No doubt that the cloud will fail again. I believe that although the customers are ultimately responsible for the high availability of their services, the AWS cloud guys should also take a step back to learn and improve – every additional outage diminishes from the cloud’s reliability as a place for all.

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.

The IaaS Management Market: Evolution, Vendors and More |

A lot have already been said about the false cloud use where the IaaS platform utilized as an hosting extension of the IT organization’s data center and not taking advantage of the elasticity benefits to generate a cost effective and scalable IT operation. Using the public IaaS whether it is Amazon, Rackspace or any other vendor means using an highly dynamic environment which presents an increasing complexity hence loss of control. Checking the list below I can say that cloud (including all its layers IaaS, PaaS and SaaS) control basically contains the same aspects as the good old system management.

When Lady Gaga and her team couldn’t find an integrated social media platform that met their specific needs, they did exactly what you would expect these avant-garde trendsetters to do: they decided to “poke the box” and build one themselves.
Now, Lady Gaga’s business manager, Troy Carter, and entrepreneur Matthew Michelsen have joined forces to create Backplane, a hi-tech start-up tasked with designing a digital platform to unite online communities around specific interests.

Cloud Computing: How Client Devices Affect the User Expereince |
|
October 18 2010

Charlton Barreto - Technology Strategist & Principal Architect at Intel Corporation
|

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.

Dealing with the Cloud's Latent Tendencies |

One frequent question when engaging customers moving applications to the cloud is: what about the latency issues when using a cloud? This question arises because most IT departments have had to struggle with application performance issues and the idea of adding a big chuck of latency when integrating the cloud is very troubling. Here is how CloudSwitch addresses this.

Fingar turns his attention to the compelling topic of social networks and their relevancy to the changing role of information technology in business. He sees social networks not as time-wasters but as a new source of business intelligence - places where work gets done and innovation is born. Your boss may not agree, but you should read Peter’s Column and form your own opinion.

Looking forward to the evolution of cloud computing, the cloud will continue to play a larger, more significant role in enterprise IT. Cloud providers have shown they can rapidly iterate and improve their offerings in response to customer input and have been drawing from their experience to develop new and powerful infrastructure and features. Here are some of the key principles that guide the technology and product development at CloudSwitch.

Moving to the Cloud: Managing Your Environment |
|
November 06 2009

John Considine - Founder & CTO at CloudSwitch, Inc
|
|
One of the advantages of cloud computing is that someone else is managing the infrastructure - including the servers, network devices and storage systems, not to mention the data center power conditioning, cooling and fire suppression equipment. One of the costs of offloading this infrastructure is that the cloud becomes something different and seperate from your data center. In most deployments today, the cloud is almost completely isolated from your data center, and this often requires changes in how you manage and interact with your applications.

Moving to the Cloud: What's Really Required |

John Considine - Founder & CTO at CloudSwitch, Inc

|
If you want to use the cloud and deploy a server, it is really quite easy to build a server from the base templates offered by the cloud providers. It becomes a lot more complicated when you try to integrate an application with multiple servers running in the cloud with your existing data center infrastructure.
