SYS-CON’s Cloud Computing Expo Will Be Larger Than Any Recent Gartner Event
The future model for providing IT infrastructure and services in large organizations is what many today are calling "Cloud Computing" - a concept popularized by Amazon through its web services efforts. Merrill Lynch analysts for example reckon that by 2011 the volume of Cloud Computing market opportunity will amount to $160BN, including $95N in business and productivity apps (e-mail, office, CRM, etc.) and $65BN in online advertising.Cloud Computing has many interpreters just now - and many interpretations. One thing is certain: it is the most dynamic new metaphor to hit enterprise computing since the creation of the "Web" by Tim Berners-Lee. read more
The Future of Cloud Computing - An Army of Monkeys?
There's been a good deal of confusion of late between the general concept of cloud computing, which I define as "Internet ('Cloud') based development and use of computer technology ('Computing')", and its various components (autonomic, grid & utility computing, SaaS etc.). Some of this confusion is understandable given issues get complex quickly when you start peeling off the layers, however much of it comes from the very same opportunistic hardware & software vendors who somehow convinced us years ago that clusters had become grids. These same people are now trying to convince us that grids have become clouds in order to sell us their version of a 'private cloud' (which is apparently any large, intelligent and/or reliable cluster).read more
Deploying into the Clouds: Concepts, Benefits, and Experiences
Cloud Computing offers significant benefits over traditional solutions for deploying production systems as well as for conducting development and testing activities. This session will distill the unique characteristics of clouds and describe how to best think about deployments in the clouds.

His technical discussion will cover: Layers of cloud computing, Cost breakdown versus traditional solutions, IT management and development, testing benefits/examples, Extreme, fast scalability at low cost - case study.read more
Yes folks, the cloud and parallel processing need killer apps
Microsoft's research chief Craig Mundie outlined his view of where computing is headed over the next decade or so and here is a big takeaway: The cloud and multiprocessor computing could use a few good killer applications. Mundie was speaking at the Technology Review Emerging Technology conference. Mary Jo Foley reports on Mundie's theme: Many consider Software + Services (S+S) to be Microsoft s way of keeping its PC-software money-making machine afloat while the cloud-computing waves come rushing in. But that view ignores the reality that it actually does make sense to run some applications and/or pieces of applications locally, and others off-premise in remote data centers. In other words, Microsoft thinks the cloud and client will merge and enable new applications. Sounds OK, ...
