Who Cares?
What is it for me?

First,
What the heck is
Cloud Computing
First, what the heck is
Cloud Computing?
…in simple, plain English please!

Let’s use a simple analogy
Say you just moved to a city, and you’re looking for
a place to live

You can either
Builda house or
Rentan apartment

If you builda house, there are a few
important decisions you have to make…

Howbigis the house?
are you planning to grow a large family?
Remodel, addition typically cost a lot more once the house is built

But, you get a chance to customizeit
flooring
tile
windows
floor plan
Roof
lighting
landscaping

Once the house is built,
you’re responsible for maintenance
Pay property tax
Hire Landscaper
Water
Electrician
Electricity
Plumber
Heating and Cooling
Gutter Cleaning
House Keeping

How about renting?

Consider a builder in your city builds
a massivenumber of apartment units

A unit can easilybe converted
into a 2,3,4 or more units

You make a fewer, simpler
decisions
You can start with one unit and grow later, or
downsize

But…
You do nothave
a lot of options to
customize your unit

triple pane windows
green materials
high capacity electricity
high speed Internet
However, builders provide you with very high quality infrastructure

No need to worryabout maintenance cost
No need to Hirelandscapers, electricians, plumbers

Pay as You Go
Just pay your rent
and utilities

Let’s translate to
Cloud Computing?

As an end-consumer, believe it or not
you’ve been using Cloudfor long times

Yes, most of them are
Free

In return, you’re willing to give away
your informationfor ads and other purposes

But you’ve been enjoying
High Reliability Service
(ok, ok, most of them are)
Unlimited Storage
Connecting, Sharing

OK, Now tell that to the business owner
Give up your data, then
you can use this infrastructure for free

This is how their CEO would feel

My Business Needs…
Security
Privacy
Reliability
High Availability

Building Enterprise
Software
is like….
Building
Medieval Castle
Stone Wall
Fire-proof
Moat
Army
Death Hole

Let’s Hire an Army of IT Engineers
Support
Software Upgrade
Backup/Restore
Service Pack
Development
Network issues

Let’s Build
Huge Data Center
Capacity Planning
Cooling Management
Disaster Plan
Server Crashes

In the mean time,…
Many things have changed

The enterprise world we live in
2010and beyond
Global
Direct, Open CustomersCommunication
(Customers, Resources, IPs are acquired everywhere)
(e.g. Social Media)
Digital Life Convergence
(Work and Personal lines are blurring)
Work Remotely
(Mobility Trend)
Transparency
Brief Collaboration
(Blogs, Social Computing)
(Assemble the best, Disassemble upon completion)

2008-09
Economy is upside down
Layoffs
Bankruptcy
Excess Capacity

Can we bridgethe gap?

Requires
aNew Way
ofThinking

Cloud Computing
is not
answer
the
for all

But it could simplifyour lives….

Leave it the experts
who have a lot of money to spend to build
giantdatacenters across the globe

Your data is replicated
3 or 4 times in their data center
High Availability

High Traffic?
Adding “servers” is a click away.
Running in just minutes, not days

It can even load balance
your server traffic

Expect your Cloud
Network
is always up

Yes, you can even pick
whereyour data
and “servers” reside

Business Contraction?
Just reduce your
computing power,storage

Wait,
What is the catch?

Cloud Computing
is relatively newtechnology

Growing Pains
We all learn from it

Only a handful of major players
can build
this massive infrastructure

Not many software written yet to takeadvantage of cloudinfrastructure

Sensitive Data in the Cloud?
are there yet?
Encryption
Data at Rest
Data in Motion

Yes, you’re loosing some controls
some configurations
physical security
only subset of APIs

Let’s clear common confusions
about Cloud Computing

Who is paying whom?

Typical Scenarios
Software/Service
Providers
Cloud/Infrastructure
Provider
You
(Business, Individual)
You may also build software
directly on the provider’s platform and
pay them directly

Do I have to start over?

In some cases,
you could redirectyour data to the cloud
Before
Migrate Data to the Cloud

In some cases,
you could redirectyour data to the cloud
After

However, to take advantage fully, migrate all or create new apps on the cloud
Employees
Suppliers
Customers

Is this just Hosting 2.0?

No, they have different architecturesand business model
Cloud Players
Hosting Players
Hundreds of them around
the world
Only few can afford billions dollar
investment on data centers

Your contracts
Cloud Players
Hosting Players
Pay As You Go
Often yearly
Pay only what you use

Reliability, High Availability,
Capacity Elasticity
Cloud Players
Hosting Players
Bring your own or rent
servers to increase capacity
Virtually unlimited storage, computing power
You have to manage
reliability, fail over yourself
Built-in Redundancy

The end of PC ?

NO
Most cloud applications that will be built are
accessible from PC.
Applications can be a browser base, applicationrunning on PC accessing data and services on the cloud
So will the mobile applications
