3. What is Cloud Computing?
Some have called cloud computing, “stupid”, “marketing
hype”, a new term for “everything that we already do”
While the cloud is a natural outgrowth of “what we
already do,” e.g., the Internet – there are new ideas and
capabilities to cloud computing and storage that will
provide new business models for the future
Not much difference to the consumer
A lot of difference and opportunity to service providers

4. Despite the Hype – 2010 Promises:
Only 2 percent of workloads will be
moved to the cloud
Whereas 30 percent of workloads
will be virtualized

5. To Use the Cloud,
Virtualization is Not Enough
• Heavy use of virtualization, but being virtualized is
not enough
– IP address usage
– Auto discovery
– Securing the process
• Moving enterprise workloads to the cloud is more
than just virtualization – need storage and content
– Where is your storage and content?
– Content security at rest and in use

15. The Cloud is Usable Today
• Just don't expect it to work like your data center
– Think, “provision service not virtual image”
– Think, “disparate clouds”
** Don't make physical assumptions **
• Run experiments first to get it right
• Evaluate your preparedness to accept the risk

19. How the Cloud is being advanced
• Cloud started out as a way to make revenue on
unused capacity
• Now a business in its own right
– Still monetizing unused capacity
– Clouds being built specific to market cloud capabilities
– MSP and hosting providers moving to cloud technology to
provide easier use of resources and incremental revenue
– Enterprise using cloud technology to implement departmental
“charge-back”
• Opex vs. Capex
