Industry News Desk The Missing Piece in Cloud Computing
Geva Perry's Virtualization Session at the Virtualization Conference & Expo, June 23-24, in New York City
May. 30, 2008 12:45 PM
 To achieve the full potential
of "cloud computing" we need a broader definition of virtualization,
and that is the complete de-coupling of the logical components of an application
(represented by the software stack) and the physical resources. In the case of
middleware, whether it is data access, messaging or the business logic, the
physical location of the resources should not matter to the developer and to
the end user.
This is not a trivial thing to do, especially when it comes to
data-intensive, stateful (transactional or otherwise) applications and
services. In this session we will explore the challenges and propose a
solution, including a live demo.
Speaker Bio: Geva Perry is Chief Marketing Officer of GigaSpaces. He is responsible
for all marketing and business development activities, including
strategy and positioning, product marketing, analyst/media relations and
strategic alliances. Previously, he was GigaSpaces' EVP Business Development.
Prior to joining GigaSpaces, Perry was Chief Operating Officer at SeeRun, a
developer of real-time business activity monitoring software. In 1999, he co-founded and became General Partner of Synergy Ventures, a New York-based
venture capital fund focused on enterprise software start-ups. Prior to
founding Synergy, he worked at Earthweb, an online publisher of content for
the developer community, before, during and after its highly successful IPO in
1998. Perry received a Bachelor's degree from Hebrew University.
He holds an MS from the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism and an MBA from Columbia Business School.

a good number of years, seems suddenly to be on everyone's mind.
In short, Virtualization is fast becoming a key requirement for every server in
the data center, enabling increased workloads in server consolidation projects,
efficient software development and testing, resource management for dynamic
data centers, application re-hosting and compatibility, and high-availability
partitions.

Best Recent Articles on Cloud Computing & Big Data Topics  By Jeremy Geelan The Arlington, Virginia-based National Science Foundation has just released its "Report on Support for Cloud Computing" - in response to the America Competes Reauthorization Act of 2010, Section 524.
It is an absolute must-read for all concerned with current and future research projects in Cloud Computing. Reads: 3,089  By Jeremy Geelan "The volume of data we're generating now from machines pales in comparison to the volume of data we'll soon generate from our own bodies," says data security expert Dave Asprey. Writing in a Trend Micro blog, Asprey - who is one of the leaders in the emerging Quantified Self movement - explains his vision of a world in which personal biometrical data is shared via the cloud. Reads: 4,523  By Wolfram Jost Cloud computing has caught the attention of business leaders around the world in every
industry because of its enormous transformative potential. Visionary companies know that
the value of the cloud is far greater than the current focus solely on technology and operating
costs: when combined with a collaborative approach to designing processes, cloud computing
will change how we do business.

Want to understand in just hours what experts have spent many hundreds of days deciphering?
Cloud computing is a technology that has rapidly evolving peppered with a lot of hype along the way. Customers find it hard to navigate through this and make sense of what aspects of this technology will give them real business benefit.
Cloud Computing Bootcamp, led by our 2012 Bootcamp Instructor Larry Carvalho, is a great way to get a practical understanding of this technology. We offer multiple days of actionable insight into what vendor offerings are currently available and help you comprehend their strategy.

Reads: 5,477  By Larry Bettino Did you know that ninety percent of the data in the world has been created in the last two years? Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion (or 2.518) bytes of data, according to IBM.
As corporations across all industries globally are struggling with how to retain, aggregate and analyze this mounting volume of what the industry refers to as Big Data, it also provides a unique opportunity for innovative startups that recognize the business prospects Big Data presents. Big Data is not just unlocking new information but new sources of economic and business value.
Interactivity is driving Big Data, with people and machines both consuming and creating it. Digital companies focused on becoming good at aggregating and analyzing the data created by the end users of their product, who then provide their customers with solid insights taken from that data are at a distinct competitive advantage over others in the marketplace.

Reads: 32,650  By Kevin Hartig Cloud computing is becoming one of the next industry buzz words. It joins the ranks of terms including: grid computing, utility computing, virtualization, clustering, etc.
Cloud computing overlaps some of the concepts of distributed, grid and utility computing, however it does have its own meaning if contextually used correctly. The conceptual overlap is partly due to technology changes, usages and implementations over the years.
Trends in usage of the terms from Google searches shows Cloud Computing is a relatively new term introduced in the past year. There has also been a decline in general interest of Grid, Utility and Distributed computing.
Likely they will be around in usage for quit a while to come. But Cloud computing has become the new buzz word driven largely by marketing and service offerings from big corporate players like Google, IBM and Amazon.

Virtualization Blogs Live By Dustin Amrhein  Rapid deployment capability is table stakes when we are talking about a PaaS solution. Every vendor touts it, and to be frank, every user simply expects it to be there. While I think it is interesting to talk about rapid deployment and perhaps compare speed of one solution to that of another, I think it is infinitely more interesting to talk about the mechanics of deployment for a particular solution. That is, I think the more interesting and important question is ‘What deployment style does a particular solution take?'
At a very high, black and white level, I think two primary deployment sty... May. 17, 2012 09:58 AM EDT | By Don MacVittie 
Throughout history there has been a cycle that ebbs and flows where new technology makes production more efficient and reduces the need for manpower in a particular space, thus forcing those in charge into the difficult position of deciding who stays and who goes. This is normally replaced by an uptake in needs for employees elsewhere, and eventually by expansion of the original vertical market, a return to labor-heavy workloads. This cycle has existed (in a variety of forms) for ages. With a crossbow, less skill and more bodies were needed to field an army. With early guns, more skill and l... May. 17, 2012 07:45 AM EDT | By Chris Evans  It’s been an interesting day of contrasts in the world of storage, one that shows storage is a diverse and wide ranging segment of IT.
Tape has been part of the discussion on the twitterverse and despite everyone’s best attempts, is not dead yet. Tape and backup may not be seen as cool - but data protection is an essential requirement of sustainable data management and tape still provides the one of the most cost effective methods of data protection and of course archive. This has happened because tape continues to innovate. Tape drive speeds and media capacities continue to push upwards ... May. 16, 2012 01:39 PM EDT | By Cloud Ventures  When it comes to building new cloud services, there is a large opportunity for new services built around Big Data.
So when you look at consulting firms that provide application development and integration services, are there opportunities for them to leverage Big Data in their service portfolio?
For enterprise consultancy, cloud platforms and tools such as enterprise integration framework and development software can be used to provide line-of-business, e-commerce and system integration services. And the nice thing about Big Data is that it helps provide opportunities to build financial... May. 16, 2012 08:00 AM EDT |
