Cloud Infrastructure as a Service

9. Cloud Has Become The New Normal

10. What Are The Patterns Of This
New Normal?

11. Start-ups Build Businesses From
Scratch In The Cloud

12. No legacy Lower cost structureNo dependencies
S
Move quickly
Building All Applications In The Cloud

13. Disrupt Long Standing Industries, Quickly
Hotels Storage Gaming
Collaboration Matchmaking

14. Speed Is Not Just For Start-ups:
Companies of All Sizes Move Faster Than Ever Before

16. It’s Impossible To Stay Competitive Today
Without The Cloud

17. In The Old Days…
Spend millions for expensive, inflexible,
slow-moving infrastructure that is
#FrozenInTime

18. Old World
Large upfront capital investment
Basic compute and storage only
Responsible for feature upgrades
Slow to get new capabilities
Low, variable cost
Broad and deep platform
New features arrive daily
Ready to use

19. Enterprises Are Using The Cloud For
New Apps & Digital Transformation
StatCast App platform Healthcare E-commerce
Digital Personal Finance Web Digital content
