Danny Quilton from Capacitas presented a paper, ‘Capacity Management and the Cloud’. The presentation made the case for capacity management of cloud-based services, highlighting the critical role of capacity management in controlling cloud cost. The presentation referenced a number of client engagement case studies to debunk some of the myths surrounding cloud:
Capacity can be turned up instantaneously
Capacity planning discipline is no longer required
Cloud capacity is cheap
Bottlenecks can be alleviated by expanding cloud capacity
Capacity management can be delegated to the cloud provider
Performance is guaranteed by the cloud provider
UP2011 - Integrate the enterprise with the cloudWolfgang Schmidt
Hybrid cloud connectivity capabilities are a key enabler of the near and long term usage of cloud services. We are delighted that our proposal "Hybrid Cloud Connectivity - Integrate the Enterprise with the Cloud" has been selected by the conference review committee, for inclusion in the Virtual agenda of second annual UP2011 Conference on December 08, 2011 via Webex.
But because today is a special day - I started with a famous quote by John Lennon:
„Life is what happens to you - while you're busy making other plans.”
I remember todays day before 31 years when I was 12 years old. I was in school and someone told me that John Lennon died that day. Sad day. That’s why today is a special day.
„Life is what happens to you - while you're busy making other plans.”
Why do I mention this? Because Cloud happens to us in these days to our "IT life" and a lot of people want to wait to use the new capabilities till there is standardized interoperability and integration.
Don't wait - start today - in this presentation I show you how!
Happy to talk about the details :-)

Cloud services are a reality for SMBs and they have specific needs when accessing the cloud. SMBs want to control their workspace, choose which applications to use; bring their own device (BYOD) and they require technology that enable their staff to work anywhere at any time.
The SMB working environment is becoming more productive and this has brought the need for improvements to flexibility, mobility and usability; SMBs are looking for enrichment of their cloud experience and prefer to purchase cloud applications from a single trusted vendor.
Currently cloud control panels are difficult to manage and lack focus on the end-user, not providing an enhanced user experience. These requirements are met with cloud applications and LuxCloud has the perfect solution to provision these services, automated and fast. When it comes to consuming cloud applications LuxCloud now has a unique product: Gateway4Cloud.

Cloud computing is a type of Internet-based computing that provides shared computer processing resources and data to computers and other devices on demand. It is a model for enabling ubiquitous, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., computer networks, servers, storage, applications and services),
Cloud Computing is one of transformational technology shifts that is the most misunderstood. Many businesses, individuals fear how cloud would affect their daily lifes, from security, privacy and changes in their daily life. Fortunately, this is a technology that can be embraced in phases. Your business can seize this opportunity and make it as one of your competitive strategy.
Intro to cloud computing — MegaCOMM 2013, JerusalemReuven Lerner
What is cloud computing? This is an introduction that I gave at MegaCOMM 2013, a conference for technical writers in Jerusalem. The talk describes how the combination of Internet access, virtualization, and open source have made computing a utility that we can turn on and off at will -- similar in some ways to electricity, water, and other utilities with which we're familiar.

at a Cloud Computing conference, The Business of Cloud Computing 2012 held on May 21-22 in Dallas, TX.
The Ultimate Guide to Cloud Migration - A Whitepaper by RapidValueRapidValue
Digital transformation based on cloud-first strategy is a marathon. Any transformation journey which is disruptive and requires changing the core foundation of the organization can be very challenging. It is bound to fail unless the journey is planned with specific goals in mind, right roles and resources allocated to it, ‘as-is’ to ‘to-be state’ is mapped and implementation engine is fine-tuned.
Based on the experience of implementing numerous transformation projects for our global clients, RapidValue has formulated a BRAVE framework for cloud-first digital transformation.

5. Cloud Computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a
shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage,
applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal
management effort or service provider interaction. This cloud model promotes
availability and is composed of five essential characteristics, three delivery models,
and four deployment models”.
The key attributes “usually” associated with Cloud Computing
e Multi-tenant – the ability to process the needs of multiple users with shared resources
in a dynamic and transparent fashion
Elastic and Scalable – resources can expand and contract as needed
Metered/Rented – some manner of “pay for only what you use”
f Self-Provisioned – “self check-in” at least to some degree
n Internet based – accessible using internet technology, usually over the public Internet
i X as a Service – the details/concerns of implementation are abstracted for the
customer
