The Cloud Is Rockin’ & Rollin’ In
Krishnan SubramanianAnalyst & Editor, CloudAve
It is cloud computing to most of us
Cloud Computing – What, Why, How and Who?
Potential Concerns & Best Practices Predictions & Conclusion
Plan of my talk
Computing Evolution
Cloud Computing - Definition
On-demand self-service internet infrastructure where you pay as you go and use only what you need, all managed by a browser, application or API
Clouds will be the next transformation over the next several years, building off of the software models that virtualization enabled
+ 100s more from experts, vendors and kids
NIST Definition of Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction.
Essential Characteristics
On-Demand Self Service
Location and Device independence Multi-tenancy

Azure & App Engine
They are in the PaaS space
Targeted at developers
Azure supports .NET, Java, Ruby, etc
GAE supports Python and Java
Business Advantages
Cost Savings – No Capex and Lower Opex Agility – Faster Business Response To
Changing Conditions Focus on Core Business
How Big Will Be The Cloud Market?
Analyst Predictions
1) The industry is poised for strong growth through 2014, when worldwide cloud services revenue is projected to reach $148.8 billion – Gartner, June 2010
2) Public IT cloud will be over 25% of the net-new growth in traditional IT products between now and 2014 – IDC, June 2010
3) The global market for enterprise cloud-based services will grow from $12.1 billion in 2010 to $35.6 billion in 2015 – Analysys Mason, 2010
4) IaaS, PaaS and SaaS software and services sales globally accounted for $20.3 billion in 2009, predicting a market size of $100.4 billion by 2016 – Wintergreen Research
Is Cloud A Cure For IT Headaches?
Yes
But
Business Concerns Availability Concerns Security Concerns Privacy Concerns
But?
I Told Ya. Cloud Is Not Secure
Security & Privacy Concerns
Cloud Provider’s Security Practices
Regulatory Needs Data Ownership Data Privacy
Mental Shift
Losing ControlTrust
In Reality
Cloud is neither more nor less secure than the traditional IT
With the loss of control, different kind of risks comes into focus
Industry best practices can help mitigate these risks. Check out Cloud Security Alliance (CSA)
Bottom Line is balancing the risks to take advantage of the clouds
Vendor Responsibility
Future Of Cloud Computing
Cloud adoption will be rapid. Security concerns will fade away with better education on the side of the users and more transparency on the side of the providers
A federated cloud ecosystem will ensure competition empowering the users
PaaS is the future of cloud services – empowering the developers
Conclusion
Cloud is real and maturing fast. Businesses of all sizes and shapes are going to adopt it much sooner than many expect
Using Cloud Computing becomes a competitive advantage
A big part of the security concerns are due to FUD but it is also critical to understand the risks and take steps to mitigate them, to take the full advantage of clouds
Leverage the cloud but control your destiny
