DESCRIPTION
Presented by CEO John Keagy at CloudWorld09 The Cloud Computing phenomenon is happening NOW - it's a reality and can provide more flexibility for your web hosting – faster, easier and at a lower cost. Companies do not need to own their own server hardware or network infrastructure anymore. The ease of scaling up or out when the need arises, the speed which new web applications can be designed, prototyped, tested, and deployed, and the inherent cost savings (CapEx to OpEx) are truly attractive. Cloud Computing is not just a buzz term we are hearing more and more, but the next wave of hosting infrastructure. As the Cloud continues to gain acceptance, developers, designers, sysadmins and IT professionals need to understand the advantages, best practices and how to get started using Cloud Computing. This presentation was delivered by John Keagy, CEO & Co-Founder of GoGrid, at CloudWorld09 and covered: • What is Cloud Computing – The Cloud Pyramid • The Benefits of Cloud Computing & Hybrid Hosting • What can Cloud Computing do for me and my business • The Competitive Landscape & Key Differentiators • Cost Savings of Cloud Computing – pay only for what you need • How to determine when to utilize Cloud Computing • How should you get started using the Cloud? • How to identify what to put in the cloud first

How are YOU doing your Hosting now?Self-Hosted– How do you do Cooling, Power, Security, etc?– Is it cost-effective?
Shared– Don’t you want to grow easily?
Dedicated– Can you scale?– How long to deploy?
Colocation– Premium pricing?
Clouds– Do you have full control?– Are you satisfied with features?

Being an “aaS”
SaaS – Software as a Service
PaaS– Platform as a Service
IaaS – Infrastructure as a Service

The “Cloud Pyramid”Cloud Services economy is a pyramid
Layers equate structure
Building blocks: – Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)– Platform-as-a-Serice (PaaS)– Applications (SaaS)
Breadth vs. Niche

Benefits of the Cloud
Not confined to Small Discipline of IT
All aspects of Computing & IT– Servers– Load Balancers– Firewalls– Networks– Storage– Software
Do Smarter!

Cloud computing economics
30,000,000 servers are not in the cloud. Yet.– Average server 10% utilized. – Not green. – Wastes green.
CapEx to OpEx
Use only what you need• Turn stuff off• Scale easily

Cost of Ownership Myth
Myth - “It’s more expensive in the Cloud”– “Cheaper to buy your gear and &
divide by 36 months”. AKA “The McKinsey Myth”
Reality – Nobody can estimate their true needs 3 years out– Cloud pricing coming down

WHAT CAN CLOUDS DO FOR ME?
Helping Startups, SMBs, SMEs, Gov’t, Enterprise

Do Just About Anything!QA/Dev/Demo/Training environments
Disaster Recovery
Replacement for existing physical infrastructures
Statistical Analysis & Bulk Processing
…the sky’s the limit!
Why are these suitable for cloud? You “own” your complete environment.
Turn off at night, easy to deploy & replicate

Not a Single SolutionPure Cloud vs. Hybrid– Dedicated or Colocated Back-end
• High I/O performance• Compliance• Managed Services
– Cloud Front-end• Horizontal scalability• Dynamic• Self-Service

Try it!
Self-service
Evaluate Vendors
Decide on the Cloud Pyramid layer– Infrastructure – complete control– Platform – framework (Java, Ruby, .NET, Python)
control– Application – more of a business use, not hosting
