The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Objective of presentation = Dispel hype surrounding Cloud and showcase how customers are using Cloud services today
IT has dramatically expanded the way we do business, the internet has brought levels of connectivity and collaboration which where unheard of even 15 years ago Although there has been great strides forward there have also been problems which generally we have struggled to solve
So what is Cloud, what is my two minute elevator pitch for cloud? Cloud Computing is the sum product of IT innovation to date It is a convergence of enterprise & consumer based IT technologies and techniques It is not a revolution but simply evolution
What do we as consumers get with services generally? Take electricity and water, two core utility services to date, we turn the tap, flick the switch and a service is provided. Well why not with IT? Why can’t we click a button and gain access to a raft of new IT services? Cloud generally encompasses this, on demand, flexible access to IT services with granular billing models. So now let’s look at a set of customers, the success and potential pitfalls which they have experienced.
One area IBM is seeing significant area of interest and growth is around dynamic infrastructure of “Infrastructure as a service” as it is known. Infrastructure as a service provides the consumer with ability to request computing resources for a certain period in time, removing the need for a specific infrastructure for specific projects. This concept works quite well in development and test environments where IT infrastructure may potentially be idle for significant periods of time. The ability to harness a common infrastructure stack for multiple project developments has been shown to significantly cut turn around times and increase utilisation Nedbank in South Africa is one organisation which has truly harnessed this type of offering. Their developers now have the ability through a rich web portal to request computing infrastructure and have it provisioned in minutes – a process that used to take weeks and billed for the time used directly to their project.
Panasonic, a brand I would suspect everyone in this room is aware of. They are the largest Japanese electronics producer with global reach covering most developed markets worldwide. This global reach brought global sourcing problems with individual regions building their own systems including communication and collaboration platforms. These regional decisions fragmented their tools and restricted the level of collaboration available to them. If they wanted to share project information between regions this in some cases may not be possible. The strategy was also costly for the parent company as all regions had their own billing arrangements with local providers say web conferencing companies. So what did they do? Panasonic globally selected IBM’s Lotus Live suite for their collaboration and communication tools. One single offering, accessible from any country, a per user monthly charge, commonality of tools allowing for greater collaboration and idea exchange. Panasonic did this for 300,000 users and utilize the same common platform available for Australian customers.
I would now like to move to a local Australian example however unfortunately I can not reveal the clients name except to state they are a financial services company services around 4,000 advisers across Australia and internally with 700 staff. As with Nedbank they too wanted a way to allow desktop users access to a standard desktop environment from anywhere in the world. They needed the environment to be secure, scalable and be able managed centrally. Finally they also wanted the ability to remove large, complex and costly desktop machines and laptops and instead harness cheap thin clients to act as the portal for the user their by extending refresh cycles for desktop devices. **They chose IBM’s Smart Business Desktiop … achieveing all of their required goals
