The Persistent Advantage


If all CIOs reduce IT budgets by 30% what
would be the implications to the software
industry?

• This presentation tries to address this question and identifies
opportunities in the post-cloud environment.
• This presentation is in the context of the CIO and enterprise
software and does not consider the consumer cloud world.
• The presentation has four parts:
1. Economics will drive cloud adoption. It is inevitable
2. Enterprises will run a Virtual Private Cloud with workloads
distributed across different types of clouds.
3. Mobile devices will be consumption device.
4. Cloud will enable new data-driven businesses.


Cloud computing

and mobile devices

are transforming the

software industry.

Cloud computing is the platform for next
generation of IT innovation.


What is driving the adoption of cloud
computing?

Economics.


What is driving the adoption of cloud
computing?

Economics.
• Illusion of infinite resources
• No up-front cost
• Fine-grained billing (e.g. hourly)

• Utility Computing: Pay-as-you-go computing
promises substantially reduced cost.


We are grossly over-provisioned

By operating at scale, improving utilization,
simplifying operations, standardizing, increasing
reliability, reducing energy and cooling

• hardware costs can be reduced 33-70 percent
• maintenance costs can be reduced up to 50 percent
• support costs can be reduced by as much as 33 percent
• floor space/facility costs can be reduced 33-50 percent

Cloud Computing: Why Now?

Business factors Economies of Scale Technology factors Clean Slate
• Minimal capital in the Data Center • Pervasive broadband Approach
expenditure • Experience of Internet • Multi-tenancy
• Pay-as-you-go billing operating data centers • Maturity in • Challenging the status-
model efficiently Virtualization quo
Technology

Business challenges will accelerate the adoption of cloud computing.


To summarize

• Enterprises will move to the cloud – this is inevitable.
• The speed of enterprises‟ movement to the cloud will
depend on the peer group and will be driven by
CEOs/CFOs comparing savings on the balance sheets of
their peers.
• This is not a technical decision.
• Unfortunately, the vendors and eco-system to migrate to
the cloud are not ready.
• The cost of migration and legacy systems is not accurately
factored in and will be a big impediment.


What does the
cloud mean for
the CIO?


Evolution of the cloud from the CIO’s
perspective

The CIO must consider
• Regulation, location mandates, other country specific laws. Perception
and reputation issues.
• Core and context apps – as perceived by the business – possibly an
evolving list.
• Need for flexibility
• Performance issues
• Cost

• Virtual Private Clouds will span applications that will be deployed

• off-premise but at a colo site
• in industry specific cloud, and
• in application-specific public clouds.
• Where they are deployed will be seamless to the end-user.
• They will be secure, centrally managed with identity and single sign-on
federated across these systems.
• They will federate billing.
• All systems will be designed for multi-tenancy and will be elastic and will
be provisioned to be available as needed.

Management Platform • Will require tools to run a distributed
Layer environment efficiently.


What is included in the
Management Layer?
• Management Layer must include the following:
• Identity management and provisioning. Single sign-on across all applications and
systems that are part of the virtual private cloud. The system should be able to
provision privileges and authority across multiple distributed systems.
• Create and run an Enterprise App Store. The Enterprise App Store will regulate the
apps that would be available to users of the enterprise virtual private cloud.
• Ability to monitor the distributed systems that are part of the virtual private cloud. Be
able to handle back-ups and DR, migrate loads, manage security, intrusion, etc.
• Manage billing across the distributed environment.
• Monitor workloads and manage most optimal placement of workloads across the
virtual private cloud on the basis of cost, performance, business risks etc. As most
workloads will be virtualized it would be possible to move workloads across
environments dynamically.


Who will manage the Virtual Private Cloud?

• From the CIOs point of view none of the cloud
operators have the credibility to run the cloud end-
to-end for the CIO‟s organization.

• They need someone who will provide service and
has established credibility.


Virtual Private Cloud Operators

• provide the CIO with complete end-to-end service – single point of contact.
• manage the virtual private cloud
• will work on migrating workloads to different configurations optimized to the
requirements of the CIO/Business.
• provide high-touch support to the end-users and to the CIO.
• manage the Enterprise App Store. Decide which applications are appropriate
for the organization.
• translate business requirements and build integration solutions required by the
business. They will optimize billing and provide a single bill for resources across
the cloud.
• provide the CIO a financial l business model that charges the business on a
monthly basis.


To summarize

• Enterprises will run Virtual Private Clouds.
• The Virtual Private Cloud will provide end users seamless view of their
environment which will be centrally managed but distributed across multiple
“clouds.”

• A new class of software service providers – Virtual Private Cloud
Operators will emerge.
• Virtual Private Cloud Operators will provide the CIO with a full service
support for managing the cloud.
• Virtual Private Cloud Operators will manage the financials for the cloud
environment.

Mobile Devices are defining our
expectations from Computers

• Always on access with super fast boot time.
• Fast broadband speeds
• Near zero latency access to nearly all information
• More than day-long battery life
• Appropriate form factor
• Location based information
• Presence

Smart, connected “things” that interact and
interface with each other are getting all
pervasive.


Video is the new voice

Video Consumption

Video Sharing

Video Communication


Apps apps everywhere!


To summarize

• Mobile devices are getting mainstream. The CIOs have to
support them.

• Tablets are driving mobile deployment. HTML5 will be the
de-facto UI standard.

• Video is the new voice.

• Mobile computing will provide the network layer for sensors.

• Sensors will generate large amounts of data. Must find ways
to deal with large volumes of data.

Infrastructure is moving to the cloud …
applications are next!

Data will move with the applications.


Data on the cloud will
enable new data-centric
business models.


Data and Applications are rapidly
moving away from the desktop
into the cloud.


As applications move to the cloud they
will lose their tight hold on enterprise data.

Enterprise data will be available on the
cloud as a service independent
of the application.


Data is getting separated from Enterprise
Applications and is accessible on the cloud
through independent APIs.

Beyond the enterprise applications, large

To summarize

• As applications move to the cloud they are taking
data to the cloud as well.
• Data on the cloud is now accessible through APIs
independent of the application.
• Cloud operators are aggregating data.
• The ability to combine Enterprise data, Aggregate
data and Public data is very powerful.
• The world is moving to “the world of apps.” Apps
will be business process specific or task/display
specific.
