Considerations for Workloads for the Cloud
• TCO
• Spikiness of workloads,
• Security, SLA, Compliance, and Regulatory requirements
• Longevity of resource requirements
• Resource Utilization Patterns
• Size of data sets involved
• Virtualization and hardware constraints
17
Barriers to Adoption...
How will we handle security
and compliance?
How will we handle legal matters?
Is it mature, reliable and stable?
Once we’re in, how do we get out?
(portability, standards)
How do we interoperate with our
existing “stuff”?
How will we manage the cultural change and fear of job loss?
Do I have re-write everything? Architecture
Do we need new skills?
18
Implications for Vendors
• Invest and plan for a long-term “true” Cloud strategy and transformation
• Involve IT in purchase decisions but also extend relationships beyond IT
• Position your products for a hybrid cloud world
• Do not underestimate the cultural barriers
• Offer more granular contracts
19
“Over the next two years, more than 50 percent of traditional IT spend –software, infrastructure, and services – will be up for grabs and rethinking, and frankly the impact on the channel will be even greater.” – Large software vendor executive
