Since each IT shop is unique, this session compares strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and the risks of each model and then helps participants create new hybrid orchestration and deployment options for the hybrid enterprise environments.
Cloud computing is the fifth generation of computing that allows applications to be accessed from anywhere via the internet. It is projected to grow six times faster than traditional IT spending, reaching $42 billion by 2012. Key benefits include lower upfront and ongoing costs, easier application access, and improved datacenter utilization. However, security concerns, latency issues, and lack of control present barriers for some applications. Private enterprise clouds can provide cloud advantages internally while addressing barriers through server virtualization, availability, and control over resource allocation.

Thank you for joining us today for “Finding your competitive advantage”
Talk about the cloud. Here’s how you’re going to benefit from this webinar.
Today’s big goal is that we are going to show you how business are evolving from an old way of thinking to cloud, which is the new way of thinking.
We will explain why this is ultimately beneficial to your business, and how you can createa strongcompetitive advantage using the cloud.
We will show you what you can do to start making that transition
Cloud represents a significant savings opportunity, both in the immediate and long-term
Companies need to run email within their organization. However, when compared to on-premise installations of Exchange, the cloud offering Office 365 has shown significant savings from the very start.
Moving to the cloud also means more productivity from all members of an organization. Being accessible and available whenever it’s needed means giving organizations and employees the flexibility to choose when and how work is done
Imagine if a healthcare supply company had a direct sales team who met face to face with clients in the field. In order to complete a sale, they need to return to the office every time they make a sale in order to fill out the paperwork.
Cloud lets them do their work wherever they want, meaning they can spend more time in front of customers and be more productive
Hard costs like licensing, employees, and hardware also go down
In the previous example, we talked about how salespeople don’t have to return to the office. But there is a avoidable cost, and that’s mileage. Now a company can invest those mileage expenses into something that produces more value instead of mileage that doesn’t provide value
IT moves from keeping the lights on to adding business value through bringing technology to business problems
Let someone else deal with the things you don’t want to do
Top-down approach (app first)
Data storage administrators
5 hours a week backing up
10 hours a month keeping things running
Cloud means they save that time and spend more time adding value
The cloud gives you agility because of the fact that cloud providers don’t require contracts. You pay by the month.
This gives you the flexibility to choose the provider you want.
You also get to change providers when you need, avoiding lock-in and making sure the services you need are the best for your business.
Let’s say you have DropBox, and you have decided to instead move to OneDrive. Because you don’t have any long-term contracts, you don’t need to wait. Typically, providers provide access for migration purposes. You easily migrate the data from DropBox to OneDrive, and then disable DropBox. You stop paying for DropBox right away, and now you can use the tool that better suits your business.
Disaster preparedness is something that is very crucial for businesses, but is hard to setup and expensive.
It’s a large concern for CEOs, who know that being down for days when disaster strikes can be costly if not fatal for a company.
Cloud takes care of this by baking disaster recovery into their services.
The Calgary flood caused problems for a lot of business who suddenly couldn’t access their data because it was stored on-premise when the flood hit. Imagine the companies who had services in the cloud. Employees could have worked from home, barely missing a beat, despite the fact that their offices were under water.
Mobility and analytics are two popular examples of the kinds of technologies that are best used when they can change quickly to respond to market conditions or shifts in your business.
A company has a mobile app that lets workers enter their inspections. In the latest quarterly meeting, it was decided that inspections must now be approved by the managers before they are accepted. Rather than the old way of a change taking months, with the cloud, updating the app takes a couple of clicks and only a few minutes, saving time and energy.
Few people disagree that today’s market place is significantly different than it was 50 years ago, yet business still operate in almost the same way. Everyone agrees that the world is changing fast and business models of yesterday are quickly giving way to this new way of thinking that we’ll call ‘new factory thinking’. Old factory is so deeply ingrained that it has become common practice – people aren’t questioning how to do things better.
New factory thinking is about …
Old
Technology-focused
Data-focused
Bricks and mortar
Static
New
Business-focused
Information-focused
Service-based
Adaptable
Old factory thinking meant creating software that was more about getting the technology to work than making sure the business problems are being solved. This meant it took a long time to release and a lot of effort to update.
Old factory thinking meant IT teams spent their time putting out fires
Old factory thinking means having data in many disparate systems with little to no collaboration between them. Businesses with no holistic view of their data can’t get insight into what’s happening.
Old factory thinking means IT holds you back from making the changes you need to make to succeed
The cloud can be considered the new factory way of thinking. It’s modern, and it’s the new market direction. It’s a new way of looking at business.
Cloud services provide free automatic upgrades included in the monthly cost. You don’t need to worry about applying the updates yourself , the provider takes care of that for you.
Cloud means you spend less time dealing with technology and more time developing solutions that align with exactly what your business needs.
Cloud means your teams are focused on your core business, your strategic activities, instead of focusing on mundane operational tasks
Cloud means being able to see what is happening and when, giving you a chance to respond faster
Cloud means IT can respond faster to the constant change of business and the market
The cloud is a new approach to organizingand managing IT resources. A sharedpool of resources means you can utilize every piece of your investments, and keep costs low. Automated environments means no more slow manual reconfiguration tasks. Cloud creates a separation between users and IT, meaning users can focus solely on the task at hand, and IT has to worry only about providing resources, and not how they are being used.
The average person doesn’t know the details of how the cloud works, but that’s the point! The cloud is so easy to use you don’t need to be an expert
Cloud means freeing yourself from the burdens of technology. Focus on what you want to achieve, and let your systems enable your company.
That can only be achieved by having systems that are built on services that are there when you need them, available anytime and anywhere, able to handle what you throw at it, and don’t force you to pay for what you don’t need.
This is only possible because computing and storage have come far enough along that they are now a commodity. History has shown us that cloud computing prices are going down, not up, as providers learn how to provide better services.
*read the law*
Not only is the cloud the future, but what we are offering today is just the start of many cloud services that are to come.
We have reached a point where technology doesn’t need to hold us back, but instead can help us push forward. Investing in the cloud can translate to direct business improvement through access to better services, improved reliability, and increased adaptability.
Ultimately, this translates into a competitive advantage in your market.
You used to have to dig a well
*explain*
And if you think you haven’t used cloud, I’m here to inform you that you are most likely mistaken. Services we use everyday are considered cloud technologies.
If you’ve heard about cloud, chances are you’ve heard some concerns about the cloud that are, in fact, common misconceptions
One of the most popular questions I get asked about the cloud is whether it is secure or not. I’m here to tell you that it is.
Cloud examples:
Sony – entertainment company, not a IT company
Apple – not an enterprise cloud
Microsoft guarantees, with money, that they will provide the service they promise
Distributed datacenters means that even if a datacenter gets wiped out entirely, you can have a backup available on the other side of the country.
Support plans are available at a variety of levels, with phone support available
There are a variety of ways you can approach cloud, and it doesn’t have to be all-encompassing.
These layers are different ways you can approach the cloud
*cheaper, faster, easier
Big data is just an example. This really can be anything you didn’t have before.
Focus all your time on building the application and focusing on business value instead of time spent stabilizing it and getting it working.
Stark contract to on-premise development that takes a large team.
