Cloud Computing Bootcamp
Returns to Silicon Valley
November 2, 2010 |
| |
Cloud computing is steadily becoming an integral
part of the enterprise computing environment. |
|
No one can properly understand anything related to enterprise-level Cloud Computing without having first gained a deep understanding of the capabilities of different Cloud players. Cloud Expo's pioneering Cloud Computing Bootcamp is designed with that in mind. It is a one-day, fully immersive deep-dive into the Cloud, in which the sessions during the day seek to give delegates a deep understanding of the capabilities of different Cloud players and how they address rapidly changing market demands.

The ever-popular Bootcamp, which is now held regularly around the world, is being held this time round in conjunction the 5th Cloud Expo in Santa Clara, CA (November 2, 2010). It is led by our 2010 Bootcamp Instructor Larry Carvalho.
BOOTCAMP SUMMARY: A compelling one-day, deep dive into just what it takes to take full advantage of the Cloud. Get a deep understanding of the capabilities of different Cloud players and how they address rapidly changing market demands.
The day is divided into six sections:
9:10 - 9:55am - Section #1 Mapping the Cloud ecosystem: Who are the players? Covering start-ups, existing enterprise vendors, service and hosting providers mapped to solutions provided.
11:00 - 11:45am - Section #2 Identifying your own position in the ecosystem: How you address the market challenges depends on whether you are a customer (large or mid-market), systems integrator/service provider or independent software vendor? Get a deep understanding to the capabilities of different players and how they address rapidly changing market demands.
11:50 - 12:20pm - Section #3 Open standards and open source: Do you take the toll or the toll-free road? Does it make a difference if solutions are measured by Service Level Agreements between consumers and providers of cloud solutions? The role of open standards is important preventing vendor lock-in while picking a solution.
2:35 - 3:20pm - Section #4 Financing: . Financing changes brought about by cloud computing: Information technology use in the new era will require change in how initiatives are funded and charged back to business units. Cloud delivery of services will require IT financing to review executive considerations while measuring subscription, usage or ad supported business models. Service providers need to consider to sales commissions, renewals and billing models.
5:40 - 6:25pm - Section #5 Connecting the dots: Connecting the dots in developing your cloud computing strategy: How do you connect your requirements to solution providers? How do you determine a road map to take advantage of this very nascent technology?
6:30 - 7:15pm - Section #6 Conclusion: Next steps for your organization.
Seats are limited to the first 250 attendees.

Articles & Feature Stories By Maureen O'Gara  Nokia will be canning its free 10GB mobile cloud-based file-sharing service Ovi Files come October 1 for lack of popularity apparently.
Its 1.5 million registered users will have to find other accommodations like maybe Nokia Ovi Suite, which requires a wired connection.
Meantime nobody will lose anything because, it says, “Ovi Files simply creates an ‘online mirror’ of the files saved on your Windows PC or Mac, so your original files will remain intact. The files on your computer are always treated as the master version, even if some are selected as ‘Anytime Files.’” Sep. 3, 2010 08:00 PM EDT Reads: 513 | By Maureen O'Gara  Verizon, which is really into this cloud business – against the day when phones as we know them evaporate into the ether – and so means to have clouds for everybody eventually, has added to its very high-end, mission-critical, totally handheld public cloud of last year.
It’s taken VMware’s Datacenter widgetry and built a somewhat lower-end hybrid cloud on its own far-flung global IP network that’s gonna be cheaper than its initial offering and is more for enterprise folks that are already VMware-virtualized internally and can manage the virtual machines themselves, folks who want to export and import images between their private cloud and Verizon’s public cloud less dynamically than with vMotion. Sep. 3, 2010 06:15 PM EDT Reads: 559 | By Maureen O'Gara  AccelOps, the three-year-old start-up that monitors data centers, networks and clouds with software delivered either SaaS or as a virtual appliance, has enticed Belgacom ICT, the old Belgian PTT’s pan-European IT arm, into its fold.
Belgacom means to use the stuff for its 200 hosted commercial IT services customers.
AccelOps, which baby-sits service, performance, availability, security and change management, reportedly won a run-off against competitors like Nimsoft and Zenoss. Belgacom reportedly liked the idea that the widgetry was agent-free, multi-tenant as well as multi-site and of course scaled.

Cloud Expo Breaking News By Salvatore Genovese  As much as information technology has changed in the last 10 years, the next decade promises even more significant change. And as cloud technology becomes more prevalent, IT enterprises will be driven to reconsider the status quo around just about everything we know, including Physical Infrastructure, Virtualization, Automation, Service Management, and Security.
Cloud technology and virtualization of virtually everything means rethinking the economic models around physical infrastructure, the e... Sep. 3, 2010 01:30 PM EDT Reads: 358 | By Liz McMillan  Virtualization is one of the key foundations of the Cloud, but many enterprises are finding the rapid growth in the number of virtual machines extremely difficult to manage. Far from reducing provisioning times and improving utilization, many organizations have found that “virtualization sprawl” has reduced the effectiveness of their IT infrastructure teams, and failed to make anticipated cost savings. Furthermore, vendor lock-in has resulted in the artificially high expense of maintaining virtu... Sep. 3, 2010 12:47 PM EDT Reads: 351 | By Pat Romanski  You may be reluctant to move your enterprise application workloads to the cloud, fearing a lack of security, compliance issues such as data location regulations, and having to rewrite your applications.

Reads: 16,021  By Fuat Kircaali I can't comprehend that any event producer anywhere in the world today would answer this question by picking any one of the five available options presented. "A leading tool?" What do you mean by "a leading tool?" What other tools would you possibly have in this day and age? This question, the survey itself and its participants belong to the last decade.
I personally don't use email anymore; I communicate through "Twitter."
We don't do press releases unless we have to; we tweet stories to our roughly 12,000 followers in 8 channels. The news gets amplified to hundreds of thousands instantly.
Even during Cloud Expo, we reach more people by Twitter than the announcements we make through loudspeakers in the convention centers.
I would love to contact the people who are conducting this survey and ask them if any company answered their first question as "don't really consider it."
In an age where I personally hail a cab at an airport through Twitter, I can't possibly comprehend which century bubble those people might be living in. Reads: 3,853  Further cementing its position as The Largest Cloud Computing Event in the World, the organizers of the 7th Cloud Expo, being held at the Santa Clara Convention Center, Santa Clara, CA, announced today that the event will also feature – on November 2nd, 2010 – a CloudCamp unconference.
CloudCamp @ Cloud Expo is aimed at anyone working with, or interested in working with, cloud technologies.
"With the rapid change occurring in the industry, we need a place where we can meet to share our experiences, challenges and solutions," said CloudCamp co-founder Dave Nielsen, who will personally be facilitating the process on site at the Jacob Javits. "At CloudCamp," Nielsen continued, "participants will be encouraged to share their thoughts in several open discussions, as we strive for the advancement of Cloud Computing."  By Kevin Hartig Cloud computing is becoming one of the next industry buzz words. It joins the ranks of terms including: grid computing, utility computing, virtualization, clustering, etc.
Cloud computing overlaps some of the concepts of distributed, grid and utility computing, however it does have its own meaning if contextually used correctly. The conceptual overlap is partly due to technology changes, usages and implementations over the years.
Trends in usage of the terms from Google searches shows Cloud Computing is a relatively new term introduced in the past year. There has also been a decline in general interest of Grid, Utility and Distributed computing.
Likely they will be around in usage for quit a while to come. But Cloud computing has become the new buzz word driven largely by marketing and service offerings from big corporate players like Google, IBM and Amazon.

The World's Most Influential Blogs By Elad Israeli  The traditional business intelligence ecosystem is built on the numerous strategic partnerships that exist between BI software vendors, which provide the technology, and value added resellers (VARs), which provide customized solutions based on that technology.
As in all partnerships, both sides need to have something significant to gain for their partnership to be successful. In the business intelligence industry, this has indeed been the case for a long time. The software vendors use their cha...

In a typical Cloud Computing data centre, an application set will generally be hosted over Virtual Machines running on a large number of Physical Machines.

After Dell made its intention to grab 3PAR ‘s virtualization goodies public, HP did not waste much time to initiate a steep counteroffer of $24 a share fuelling a spell bounding bidding war.
