WikitipCloud Computing: Business Model or Technology?There are many articles on the Internet about cloud computing, and I have written quite a few myself, covering all sorts of subjects from history to future trends, advantages, disadvantages, what it is, what is not, etc. Lately, there seem to be more and more people querying the nature of cloud computing services, is it really about technology as much as it is a business model? Of course, there are also articles describing the cloud as an over-hyped marketing ploy, but let's just concentrate on the facts. In one of my previous posts, "Who’s Afraid of the Cloud?", I said that cloud computing comes with a value proposition and is not about competing technologies but is a new, business-oriented model. This is one way of looking at it, but without the technology the business model would not be possible.
What this means is that the technology has to do what it has always done, provide the best services to support the business. The business can now stop trying to understand and worry about IT capabilities and concentrate on what they do best. Cloud computing simplifies IT services and makes them more cost effective for business but requires the IT industry as a whole, but especially the professionals working within it, to raise their game, not only technically but also to become more business savvy. I said it before, as others before me, it is a “brave new world”, full of excitement and possibilities. |

Featured How-To Note |
Storage Virtualization Design and DeploymentA main impediment to storage virtualization is the lack of multiple storage vendor (heterogeneous) support within available virtualization technologies. This inhibits deployment across a data center. The only practical approach is either to implement a single vendor solution across the whole of the data center (practical only for small and some medium size data centers) or to implement virtualization in one or more of the largest storage pools within a data center. |
