Due parole sul cloud computing...

1. CloudComputing modelli, servizi, criticità e aspettative Prof. Stefano Epifani Sapienza, Università di Roma http://blog.stefanoepifani.it Stefano.epifani@uniroma1.it

2. Cosa è?

5. Cosa NON è? (o almeno non limita ad essere…)

7. Tecnologia Business Model

8. A type of computing that relies on sharing computing resources rather than having local servers or personal devices to handle applications. The goal of cloud computing is to apply traditional supercomputing, or high-performance computing power, normally used by military and research facilities, to perform tens of trillions of computations per second. To do this, cloud computing networks large groups of servers, usually those with low-cost consumer PC technology, with specialized connections to spread data-processing chores across them. This shared IT infrastructure contains large pools of systems that are linked together. Often, virtualization techniques are used to maximize the power of cloud computing. The standards for connecting the computer systems and the software needed to make cloud computing work are not fully defined at present time, but are often based on open standards and open source software which link together computers. Cloud computing has started to obtain mass appeal in corporate data centers as it enables the data center to operate like the Internet work through the process of enabling computing resources to be accessed and shared as virtual resources in a secure and scalable manner.

13. “Forrester feels that cloud computing is one of the Top 15 Technology Trends and that it warrants investment now so you can gain the experience necessary to take advantage of it in its many forms to transform your organization into a more efficient and responsive service provider to the business” -Forrester, October 13, 2009, http://blogs.forrester.com/it_infrastructure/2009/10/cloud-computing-belongs-on-your-3year-roadmap.html

14. “As enterprises seek to consume their IT services in the most cost-effective way, interest is growing in drawing a broad range of services (for example, computational power, storage and business applications) from the "cloud," rather than from on-premises equipment. The levels of hype around cloud computing in the IT industry are deafening, with every vendor expounding its cloud strategy and variations, such as private cloud computing and hybrid approaches, compounding the hype” Gartner's 2009 Hype Cycle Special Report
