This document discusses Eucalyptus cloud, a private cloud software that provides on-premise infrastructure as a service capabilities. It highlights that Eucalyptus is open source software, has a subscription-based support model, and was first released in 2008. The document also notes that Eucalyptus provides an on-premise alternative to public cloud with AWS API compatibility, ease of use, and ability to enable innovation through an elastic private cloud.
Cloud computing :
Accessibility: Cloud computing facilitates the access of applications and data from any location worldwide and from any device with an internet connection.
Cost savings: Cloud computing offers businesses scalable computing resources hence saving them on the cost of acquiring and maintaining them.
Security: Cloud providers especially those offering private cloud services, have strived to implement the best security standards and procedures in order to protect client’s data saved in the cloud.
Disaster recovery: Cloud computing offers the most efficient means for small, medium, and even large enterprises to backup and restore their data and applications in a fast and reliable way.
Cloud computing is using the internet to access someone else's software running on someone else's hardware in someone else's data center.

Chris Purrington's talk from CLOUDSEC 2016 "Defense in depth: practical steps...Cohesive Networks
Defense in depth: practical steps to securing your data and achieving compliance
Presented by Chris Purrington, the VP Sales Europe at Cohesive Networks
Perimeter-based security approaches have not evolved to meet the modern application-focused enterprise. The weaknesses of the perimeter-based approach are on display in the east/west attacks on Sony, Target, and Home Depot exploits where hackers gained access to the perimeter, then ransacked the internal networks with minimal resistance. What can modern enterprises do? A “defense in depth” approach to security at the network layer. Enterprises must strengthen existing core networking hardware and virtualization layer security with added application security. In data centres, physical network isolation is not practical, and logical segmentation can be very difficult without using evolved networking approaches. As data centers became wholly virtualized and blur the line between data center and private cloud, we can finally add and control logical segmentation at the virtualization layer. This “Application Segmentation” provides the most comprehensive security model available today. You can apply application segmentation defense in depth using Cohesive Networks’ VNS3:turret. VNS3:turret creates a cryptographically unique micro-perimeter around each application topology. This presentation will examine how an defense in depth at the application layer can stop the next Sony attack.

The US has a new administration that values transparency, citizen participation, collaboration, information sharing, and internet technology. This presentation maps the role of information and communication technologies (specifically, cloud computing, Web 2.0, and Web 3.0 semantic technologies) in the evolution of government information systems from e-gov (silos with web front ends) to connected governance (e.g. distributed social computing environments for collaborative work, information sharing, knowledge management, and participatory decision-making.)

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.
