Europe Sets Course for Cloud

Europe Sets Course for Cloud

By John Taschek on January 31, 2012

There’s a perception that cloud computing has become a “mature” technology, a perception shared by few but anticipated by most everyone else with the exception of those trying to preserve their self-interests. I don’t blame them – each person inherently protects self-interests. They’re wrong though. Cloud is not mature. It is evolving.  The paradox is [...]

Blue Murder ?

Blue Murder ?

By Christian Reilly on April 6, 2011

I guess it used to be called “Stormchasing” – where groups of seemingly heroic, but clearly just plain stupid, raincoat-clad student types armed with an entry-level standard def video camera caught clips of each other laughing and shouting such ludicrous lines as “oh crap, Bob, it’s coming straight at us” as a 125mph wind got [...]

Public Clouds :-)

The Hollywood Culture

By Christian Reilly on March 13, 2011

Debates are fun, especially when you are jousting with such fantastic and respected cloud dignitaries as Chris Hoff, Adrian Cockcroft and Simon Wardley. Come on, I mean who wouldn’t enjoy a good natured, well intended, yet fierce back and forth about the various clouds and their various philosophies ? Well, March 12 was a day [...]

Enterprises Consider Business Agility As A Primary Driver Towards Cloud

Enterprises Consider Business Agility As A Primary Driver Towards Cloud

By Krishnan Subramanian on September 10, 2010

I recently had a chance to read a Sandhill.com report titled Leaders In The Cloud. It is a pretty comprehensive report analyzing the business value of cloud computing for both customers and vendors. This report has a quantitative survey of IT executives from businesses of all sizes and shapes. Anyone wanting to understand the cloud [...]

CloudCamp Sydney – The Same Old Memes

CloudCamp Sydney – The Same Old Memes

Public vs Private Cloud Brouhaha: My Take

Public vs Private Cloud Brouhaha: My Take

By Krishnan Subramanian on August 24, 2009

Image via Wikipedia The blogosphere and Twitterverse is full of debates about whether private clouds are actually clouds or not. I have had my own share of debates on the Twitter and I thought I will bring it over to Cloud Ave for further enlightenment. For a change, I am going to follow the Redmonk [...]

On Private Cloud, Public Clouds and Where Apprenda Sits In All Of That

By Ben Kepes on August 24, 2009

The other day I was reading one of Barton George’s always entertaining posts (as an aside, Barton has recently signed on as Cloud Evangelist at Dell – watch this space for Dell’s cloudy moves). In his post entitled “Internal Clouds? We don’t need no Stinking Internal Clouds”, Barton’s two big takeaways referenced from a Forrester [...]

What’s in a Cloud (or Not)

By Guest Posts on August 24, 2009

I read a lot of articles on technology and it always amazes me the degree of heated debate that goes on in the blogosphere, social media and elsewhere over simple definitions.  What caught my attention today was the number of posts and comments on Twitter about what was or was not Cloud. So the question [...]
