Dale Vile, CEO of Freeform Dynamics Ltd, gave a presentation on cloud computing trends and perspectives. He discussed how cloud computing has evolved from hype to emerging clarity, with confusion persisting over definitions. Vile outlined different views of cloud, including technology vs services and the service stack. He noted that cloud will have a significant impact on IT delivery and management, but that a hybrid model is emerging. Looking ahead, Vile argued organizations should focus on business services rather than aiming to "move to the cloud," and that cloud represents a shift to a service-centric view of IT.
- The document discusses cloud computing and provides perspectives from IT professionals on what qualifies as cloud computing. It addresses different cloud models like IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS.
- Survey results show that IT professionals view hosted services as legitimate examples of cloud computing, rather than just the enabling technology. Factors like elastic scaling of resources and pay-per-use models are also seen as important.
- There is no single definition and different workloads may be suited to different deployment models between on-premise, hosted, dedicated, or shared/dynamic environments. The key is understanding individual requirements.
The document discusses the challenges of managing large, diverse data sources known as "Big Data". It notes that while data volumes are growing, not all data has high value. It also outlines the emerging ecosystem of tools for distributed storage, analytics and search that are helping organizations extract value from both structured and unstructured data sources. The document concludes that both traditional and new approaches to data management and analytics have important roles to play as organizations tackle new data-driven challenges.
The document discusses consumerization of IT, which refers to employees using their personal devices and internet services for work purposes. It summarizes research from a survey of 1,600 IT professionals on consumerization trends. Key findings include that about half of organizations now encourage, accept, or tolerate the use of personal equipment for work. The majority of employees, around 85%, are estimated to be using their own devices for work activities. Senior managers and executives are often early adopters. Personal smartphones, notebooks, and tablets are commonly used both officially and unofficially. Potential benefits discussed include improved productivity and job satisfaction.
The document discusses the "consumerisation of IT" where trends and technologies originating from consumer markets are increasingly being used in business settings. This is driven by factors like improved mobile devices, cloud services, and changing user expectations of consumer technologies in their personal and professional lives. While this poses risks to corporate IT like security and manageability issues, it also presents opportunities if IT can understand and adapt to these trends rather than fight them. The document provides examples of consumer technologies entering businesses and survey results on the extent companies are seeing this occur independently of IT strategy. It also outlines a balancing act for IT in addressing concerns while embracing opportunities and tips for policies, processes and skills to help manage the consumerisation of IT.
Timothy B. Jones discusses perspectives on innovation and enterprise computing. He observes trends showing more consumer technology innovation than enterprise and how this is disrupting businesses. Prosumers are bringing consumer tech into offices, undermining existing enterprise software. A new "LAMP stack" is enabling applications that enhance productivity at lower costs. This is leading to the emergence of "Enterprise 2.0" using web 2.0 technologies internally to improve collaboration and replace client-server architectures with more flexible applications. Early adopter organizations are seeing benefits, and target verticals include financial services, retail, consulting and more.

However, many organizations do not accurately track or measure IT power usage at a granular level, which could help identify opportunities to minimize power consumption through solutions like server virtualization and desktop power management features. Overall green considerations are still not a prominent part of IT strategies for many organizations.
David Tebbutt discusses the context for, and the central role of, IT in an organisation's power management. He takes the listener from sustainability, through the link between climate change and energy use, all the time stressing the cost benefits of taking action. The presentation includes quick IT-powered wins for the enterprise, quick wins for IT itself and finishes with longer term suggestions which can deliver even bigger savings.
1. The document discusses topics related to IT, including the impact of the global financial crisis, virtualization, and what organizations are planning to buy.
2. It explores user perceptions of IT and virtualization adoption across different company sizes. Significant drivers for implementing virtualization include scale, geography, and compliance.
3. Challenges and barriers to desktop virtualization adoption are discussed, along with the effect of virtualization on hardware acquisition strategies and operating system selection. The need for improved virtualization management and licensing models is also examined.
This document discusses the benefits of asset management for businesses. It notes that today businesses want to reduce costs, increase agility, manage risk, and be good corporate citizens. Asset management provides visibility into IT assets which helps reduce spending and risk. The costs of not doing asset management include wasted time, money, and poor utilization of resources. Effective asset management leads to maximum return on investment, improved decision making, increased flexibility, cost savings, and supports compliance. It directly impacts financial and operational performance.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...Alex Pruden
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

ON-DEMAND SERVICE CATEGORIES
Business application services It is in this area that the term ‘Software as a Service’ (SaaS) was originally coined.
Services at this level are typically focused on the delivery of complete business
functionality, e.g. CRM, ERP, etc.
Hosted productivity tools Services here are more concerned with horizontal capability ranging from desktop
suites for end users, through to modelling, development and project management
tools for analysts and developers.
Hosted comms/collaboration Spearheaded initially by hosted email and web conferencing, the number of services
offerings in this area has exploded to include full unified communications and/or
social media (directories, blogs, wikis, etc).
Trading community services As supply chain automation has gathered momentum in some industry sectors,
services have emerged aimed at facilitating the way in which customers and
suppliers collaborate and transact electronically.
Plug-in services A myriad of services exist which do not provide complete business functionality but
‘plug into’ existing applications to enhance or extend them. Examples include
everything from mapping to credit checking.
Application platform services As an alternative to consuming pre-built services from external providers, application
platform services provide development and runtime environments allowing custom
applications to be built and hosted online.
Operational services This often overlooked but highly important category is where we find services
concerned with online backup, archiving, security (e.g. email filtering), etc., and even
full blown monitoring and management tools.
