● As “software eats the world” it requires sophisticated cloud platforms
and cloud networking.
● AWS rules public cloud; however, regional clouds and even private
clouds still matter and will evolve fast and remain relevant.
● Hybrid (public + private) for now and increasingly multi-cloud are the
future. Software is key.
● Operations matter MOST! Without it, the digital value chain falls apart.

Why cloud?

You are always wrong about quantity, location and timing:
● You have too much or too little
● You are too early or too late
● You don’t have it all in the right place
Private cloud improves this by pooling workloads, but does not provide the scale
and agility to deal with unexpected changes in requirements.
Equation to solve once was: public cloud + private cloud = hybrid cloud

Why cloud.ca?

We saw the market need for Canadian owned and operated agile infrastructure:
● Speed of light - latency happens
● Keep data under Canadian legal jurisdiction
● Predictable and easy to manage costs in Canadian $
