IT is increasingly being consumed ‘as a service.’ This is why 451 Research expects the SaaS portion of the cloud to reach $11.1bn in 2012 and continue to grow to $14.8bn in 2014. But, there is a network attached to that cloud, and networks don’t always behave well. The cloud has performance problems stemming from latency and availability issues, especially if you have customers or employees in emerging markets including China, Russia, and India. Applications such as CRM, ERP, content management and collaboration, all the way to archiving and backup storage services can be impacted by network performance. How do you accelerate your cloud applications to ensure a good customer or employee experience? Join the webcast and learn how HighQ, Thomsons Online Benefits, and others have leveraged CDN technology.

Even if there were one, would they be able to deliver services at a reasonable price?” - Shawn Gordon, Director Global IT Operations and Technical Services, SEMI • Cloud hosted on Amazon AWS • Reduced IT staff and budget called for simplified IT infrastructure • Switched from proprietary content management system to cloud-based Drupal for cost CHALLENGES savings, but performance suffered • Emerging market growth in China and India necessitated improved reliability and higher performance of the website in those locations • Existing CDN provider had no points of presence in China
- 40. CUSTOMER SUCCESS STORY China performance with and without CDNetworks • 20 seconds • High errors • 9 seconds • Low errors “Not only did they have the capabilities and global reach we required, they could combine all their services and regions into one simple plan. That’s the kind of operational simplicity and pricing visibility we needed.” - Shawn Gordon, Director Global IT Operations and Technical Services, SEMI • Cost savings: • With 100+ points of presence from CDNetworks, they were able to consolidate web hosting to one provider RESULTS • Implemented Drupal for all 25 SEMI websites • 100% uptime in China and globally due to CDNetworks understanding of the website and cloud application rules in China
Editor's Notes
- Compute and storage as a serviceCaaS is the provisioning of computing resources (access to raw compute or server capacity) on demand. CaaS providers offer the ability to rent rather than own IT resources. This cloud computing layer involves the delivery of virtual or physical resources as a service, priced via a consumption-based model, where usage is metered similar to a utility. Included within this segment is the platform attached storage used alongside the computing power for cloud infrastructure services.Pure-play cloud storage vendors provide cloud-based raw-capacity storage services used for unlimited on-demand file storage.

- A total of 1,165 respondents involved in their company’s buying decisions participated in the July 10-26 survey, including 369 whose company currently uses public cloud. ChangeWave Research is a service of 451 Research.
- Of those surveyed (70 in depth interviews with mid- large sized enterprises) who are likely to move applications to the cloud, we asked when are you likely to do thisCRM = salesforce.comHCM = HRM + analytics on deployed “capital”

- Assume an enterprise will need 3k sq feet. In this hypothetical scenario, $4.5 to $7.5m to build in the one market. Doesn’t factor in risks associated with mis-calculation of capacity needs, costs of ongoing operation, and fluctuating demand and ever-changing regulatory/political environment that pose another set of risks.
- The total MTDC market supply in Moscow is estimated to exceed 29,000 square meters of net space as of 1h 2012, growing to almost40 sq meters by 2013.MTDC service providers have different backgrounds, target customers and portfolios of services. Some are pure-play datacenter service providers offering traditional colocation services such as cabinets, cages, connectivity and on-site engineering support. Others, like CROC, are large system integrators with thousands of customers, 1,800 employees and revenue of $832m (2010). CROC’s customer base includes large banks, enterprises and government agencies. Capabilities of these services providers are very different, Eop= estimated operation square footage.
- Say 100 Cabinets = 3,000 sqft. Then charge a fee per sqft $30 per sqft. Now apply a $ per kW cost. Lets assume $200 per kW which is roughly in the middle of everything I work on. At 5kW per cabinet, the user would require 500kW. Example below… Of course, cabinets may require some smaller and some larger circuits but this is just an average. Then add in your NRC (Non Reoccurring Costs) such as cabinet installs, cages, network cabling etc… Example:NRC - ? $200,000100 Cabinets @ $30 sqft = $1,080,000 year500kW = $876,000 yearNetwork Costs = $?Total = ~$2M per year at full utilization. Anecdotal data only on Russia and Brazil – emerging markets, less mature MTDC model. Operator expectations in Russia seem to be for quicker ROI, so costs could be double that of US market. Brazil is closer to US costs.But the remaining question then becomes: do I have the experience to manage negotiations and contracts in each emerging market?
- Let’s build a hypothetical MNC that wants to build its revenues in Brazil, Russia, India, China. It has applications accessed by its employees and customers that need to perform better. Latency is one concern that has been impacting productivity and customer engagement

This measured performance from browsers on various Chinese networks trying to connect to different cloud providers. Note the wide variation. Simply putting the servers in a single city doesn’t address all the performance problems
