The Future of OpenStack’s EC2 APIs

The Future of OpenStack’s EC2 APIs

By Randy Bias on February 12, 2015

Recently, some more talk was had around the future of the EC2 APIs, beginning with some comments on the openstack-operators mailing list, followed by threads on the dev and foundation mailing list.  This ultimately resulted in a suggested commit to officially “deprecate” the EC2 APIs from Nova.  This commit was rejected, but make sure you […]

The Case for Tiered Storage in Private Clouds

The Case for Tiered Storage in Private Clouds

By Randy Bias on February 24, 2014

Fall of last year I wrote a controversial whitepaper detailing my concerns about how distributed storage was being marketed.  The blog introduction and the whitepaper were both entitled Converged Storage, Wishful Thinking, and Reality.  There was a certain amount of expected blowback from folks at RedHat and Ceph as well as more thoughtful replies from […]

OpenStack: A Community Torn Apart - Freedland, Bias and Scoble

OpenStack: A Community Torn Apart – Freedland, Bias and Scoble

By Ofir Nachmani on January 10, 2014

Last month, I attended the OpenStack summit in Tel Aviv.  This was yet another great event brought to us by the brilliant Gigaspaces team (especially @shar1z) headed by one of the most important cloud evangelists in Israel and the world, @natishalom. OpenStack aims to provide the ubiquitous open source cloud computing platform for public and private clouds. Wikipedia […]

OpenStack Vibes Around CloudConnect

OpenStack Vibes Around CloudConnect

By Krishnan Subramanian on February 16, 2012

CloudConnect 2012 at Santa Clara, the conference organized by UBM, has come to an end. This week, there were quite a few OpenStack (previous CloudAve coverage) related news and I thought I will do a single blog post talking about them. Some of them came during the event and some outside of it. This post […]

Cloud Computing Came to a Head in 2011

Cloud Computing Came to a Head in 2011

By Randy Bias on January 4, 2012

Happy New Year! I hope you all had a fantastic holiday. This is a review post that I think you will find particularly compelling. Rather than predicting the future I thought I would take a look back at five long years of ‘cloud computing’. As many of you long time readers know, I’ve been ‘in […]

Is Open Compute Ready for Prime Time?

Is Open Compute Ready for Prime Time?

By Randy Bias on October 31, 2011

I just returned from the Open Compute Project (OCP) Summit in NYC. It was an eye opening experience. I thought I would share my take aways plus talk about what I perceive as a core issue: can the Open Compute Project (OCP) grow beyond Facebook? By that, I mean there is a clear challenge right […]

The Evolution of IT Towards Cloud Computing

The Evolution of IT Towards Cloud Computing

By Randy Bias on August 31, 2011

I’ve talked about this idea many times and it’s been picked up and echoed by many in the mainstream media.  The idea is this: Cloud computing is a new paradigm for IT that displaces the current dominant paradigm, enterprise computing.  This is in the same way that enterprise computing (or “client/server”) displaced mainframe computing as […]

Why Public Clouds Will Eventually Win The Game

Why Public Clouds Will Eventually Win The Game

By Krishnan Subramanian on November 28, 2010

Long term readers of this blog know my views on public vs private cloud debate. I believe that private clouds may dominate over public clouds among the enterprises in the short run but, in the long run, most of the workloads will move to the public clouds. The cloud economics will be a major driving […]
