What is the Cloud?
A lot of hype but is there any REAL benefits?
The Cloud – What is it?
 What is the Cloud? The Cloud is a system of interconnected
computers to provide immense elasticity of use. The benefit
is such that as demands of the users increase and decrease,
there is no deterioration of services or quality. It gained
popularity in the business world as Amazon released their
Amazon Web Services. In short, Amazon needed huge
computer capacity to meet the demands of shoppers
during the Holiday season. But then the rest of the year the
capacity was idle, so they made it available to those willing
to use it as remote computers. It allows software developers
to spin up a variety programming applications in formally
only available to local servers to each company.
The Cloud – Where is It?
 Where is the Cloud? The Cloud is not just a single entity.
There are a large number of Clouds. Amazon has a Cloud
and Microsoft has a Cloud but there are many more
companies that provide cloud solutions. The Cloud Advisor
Platform uses the Microsoft Cloud called Azure. Azure is not
just in Redmond, WA (Microsoft Headquarters), it has servers
all around the world. This is very important to cloud solutions.
Having clouds located in many geographical locations
maintains the quality of services to users located around the
world. So software services can be installed in a single
location and then spun up as needed not just in one
location but in the closest available cloud outlet to the
demand. Meanwhile the services will be decreased in the
other geographical locations.
The Cloud – How is it Changing the World?
 The Cloud is reminiscent of the earlier generation of the
Mainframe era (back before the PC). Where a very
large computer severed the needs many users
(communicating through terminals). Then PCs changed
the world and intranets (LANs and WANs) changed the
businesses that used them. Then the internet connected
all PCs to a network of servers that initially served up
HTML pages. Now the internet has provided a
connectivity to very large computing power (otherwise
know as a Cloud). The Cloud provides large resources
that can be consumed at-will. Now software developers
can design and build software that is hosted in an
environment with the capacity and power only
available to very large and well funded companies.
Essentially the Cloud provides a fertile ground for bright
ideas unconstrained by financial limitations. The world
gets access to the best not the best funded

Facebook posts. The beauty of this communication
is that they can be stored in a library for those
evaluating portfolio model managers. I call the
appraisal of the character of the investment
manager as the 3rd dimension of performance.
Character is the only true way to understand the
future behavior of the manager
