Business leaders want IT to deliver fast solutions and be a true partner. However, if IT cannot provide what the business needs or give a viable alternative, business units will purchase solutions externally. The document outlines how IT can drive innovation through a software-defined, cloud-based approach. This allows separating applications from infrastructure, simplifying management, enabling automation, and providing choice in deployment location. Adopting cloud economics in this way can free up budget for IT to invest in innovation that drives business growth.

January 2015 Webinar - Wins and Successes from 2014RapidScale
RapidScale shares some of its biggest cloud wins and successes from 2014. RapidScale identifies the core problems and presents a solution to see winning business results for businesses.
Cloud computing may be a confusing subject because of the number of different businesses offering what they call “cloud computing,” but it's not as complicated as it sounds. There are three types of cloud computing infrastructures, each with its own benefits.
CloudDiscovery allows users to get a full assessment of their current infrastructure and the data needed to achieve a successful migration to the cloud. It provides a user-friendly interface that lays out the configuration, desktop use information, and compute information within their network.
Your servers, our Cloud, the best service in the industry. RapidScale gives you on-demand capacity with the best infrastructure tools and utilities in the industry.
The goal of CloudServer is to provide a flexible, standardized and virtualized operating environment that allows applications to perform at their peak without downtime. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) abstracts hardware (server, storage and network infrastructure) into a pool of computing, storage and connectivity capabilities that are delivered as services for a usage-based (metered) cost. Leveraging our infrastructure allows you to operate like an enterprise-level organization, no matter what size you are.
With CloudServer, you will also receive the benefits of Disaster Recovery. There are a myriad of ways to lose equipment and data, whether it is fire, theft or malfunctioning sprinklers. RapidScale’s CloudServer houses your data in secure Tier 3, Class 1 data centers that are mirrored and securely backed up. This gives your services the ability to be quickly back on-line and running smoothly in the event of a disaster. Our infrastructure resides in multiple data centers so clients can be assured that their business critical applications and data will be fully redundant in a different data center, making it easier to resume business as usual.
CloudServer has a pay-as-you-go model which allows you to scale up or down depending on your needs. Quickly seize new opportunities and get projects up and running with the scalability of our solution. When it comes to pricey hardware, you can save a lot by using our infrastructure and buying only what you use. With IaaS, eliminate the many negative aspects of IT expansion, especially issues with in-house infrastructure, while still receiving the processing power and storage space that you need to run.
CloudServer is based off of enterprise-class infrastructure at a fraction of the costs with 24x7x365 friendly and reliable support. We care about your business’ uptime objectives and security, which is why RapidScale has worked hard to become a leader in CloudServer. With your applications built into a private cloud environment that includes encryption, firewalls and advanced around-the-clock monitoring, they will remain safe and secure. Operate worry-free, knowing that you always have RapidScale’s support.
With your infrastructure hosted off-site, you free up your IT staff to focus on value-added tasks, such as planning and development, instead of running around patching machines and fixing bugs. Reduce risk, eliminate headaches and save money with CloudServer.
CloudOffice is a secure all-in-one solution set combining RapidScale’s four core products and services: Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), Desktop as a Service (DaaS), and Hosted Microsoft Exchange.
We can package your business applications and add them to your CloudOffice. Your employees will be working in an enterprise-grade environment that is controlled and monitored 24x7x365. Additionally, all your data will be backed up in the cloud securely. With RapidScale's CloudOffice, you will have solutions that support collaboration and mobile workforces from any device, with any app, anywhere. It is the future of IT.
Microsoft Office 2010 offers flexible and powerful new ways to deliver your best work - at the office, at home, or at school.
Hosted Exchange enables you to communicate using business-grade email while eliminating the need to upgrade and maintain a physical Exchange server. Archiving and encryption services are available for compliance and security purposes. Tailor your solutions based on your unique needs and ensure that your communications are always available. You remain in control.
Unlike many competitive products, CloudOffice was built on a multi-tenanted Geo Load Balanced Active/Active architecture. This unique design offers several benefits to its end users but most importantly means that customers’ virtual environments are built redundantly upon one another creating the ultimate design in Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity.
RapidScale's consistent hardware refresh cycles ensure that customers’ applications are running on reliable maintained equipment at all times. Services are built in geographically redundant data centers, so if a primary site goes offline, the secondary site will initiate and users will be routed to that site. CloudOffice is a reliable and secure way to store data and clients will experience the latest technology with exceptional data protection.
RapidScale's CloudOffice product replaces a client’s physical IT infrastructure by moving all the customer applications to the Cloud. This eliminates the need for the client’s IT team to maintain and support the physical hardware. This will also minimize the workload on the customer’s finance department regarding the procurement of IT hardware and associated maintenance contracts.
At the infrastructure level, CloudOffice is fully backed by Active Directory architecture to simplify the deployment of user accounts. With our front-end control panel, even non-technical clerical and HR workers have the ability to easily spin up user accounts and provision users with a Desktop, Mailbox, Applications, and File Permissions in one fluid and smooth process using a “next, next, finish” procedure. Built on the same technology as our CloudDesktop platform, rich HD graphics and a seamless end user experience are just a few of the front facing benefits of our CloudOffice product offering.
Cloud computing environments offer benefits to business and IT departments that aren't easily gained through the use of traditional IT infrastructures. Here are five of the most common applications for cloud computing right now.

How to build an it transformation roadmapInnesGerrard
An estimated 80 percent of #businesses will need to transform their current IT efforts to keep up with new business expectations and technological developments. These include investments such as cloud computing, IoT and BigData projects.
Integration is a crucial part of your organization’s digital transformation journey. With an integrated digital business, you can connect your business processes with one another for better collaboration and communication.
Data analytics tools help organizations derive insights from vast amounts of data, enabling informed decision-making, identifying trends and patterns, personalizing customer experiences, optimizing processes, and driving innovation and competitive advantage.
With businesses now accelerating their goal to becoming a whole cloud-native interface in the
coming years, with a ground cloud-based disaster recovery strategy, they must also be embedded
within their management plans. Otherwise, every business risks losing vital data and having
its systems, operations, and services shut down by natural and artificial disasters, hardware
failures, power outages, and security risks.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

4 Ways IT Can Drive Innovation
1. 4 Ways
IT Can Drive
Innovation
VMware Executive Programs
2. Disruption rules.
Today, every industry is experiencing disruption at some level.
Business leaders must keep pace — often looking to the CIO and IT
organization to bring technical innovations to the table.
3. Business leaders want fast solutions
and true partnership. If your team
can’t deliver, they’ll build it themselves
or buy it externally.
Business Wants:
Speed and Partnership
4. “More than 25 percent of overall IT spend
is controlled by or managed outside the IT
organization for 19 percent of CIOs surveyed.”
— Harvey Nash CIO Survey 2015
5. If IT can’t provide what the business wants
or give an equally viable option, the business
will purchase solutions externally.
Business Wants:
Choice
6. Business users expect technology to stay out
of the way of work. They want to pick up
a device to get to their data — easily
and securely.
Business Wants:
Simplicity + Security
7. Exceedingly complex systems have put CIOs
in a bind. Chief Information Officer is
sometimes equated to Chief Infrastructure
Officer. You know you need to deliver
on consumer-like experiences that
will make the business flow.
How do you do it?
From Infrastructure
to Innovation
Become
the Chief
Innovation
Officer.
8. It’s the Cloud Economy.
You can clear the way to innovation
with a software-defined approach, or cloud economics.
Realize its benefits in four key ways.
9. Separating applications from the underlying
infrastructure (compute, storage, and
networking) lets you keep the entire
network-distributed application together
in a segment. As a result, you can
move and deploy it without
having to tinker with its internal
configuration from a
networking perspective.
Cloud Economics:
Virtualization
10. With applications in virtual segments —
whether that segment is a virtual machine,
a virtual network, or a virtual storage
type — you radically simplify the number
of different types of things that must
be managed in your data center.
Cloud Economics:
Simplified Management
11. Instead of needing to automate the life of 3, 4,
or 5,000 different applications, you need
to automate the lifecycle of only a few
segment types. And by automating the
lifecycle of an individual segment,
you can automate the lifecycle of
all the applications you put into
that segment.
Cloud Economics:
Automation
12. Once the application — and all that goes with
