THE POSIT OF THIS PRESENTATION IS :
THE MARKET HAS MOVED ON FROM “WHAT IS CLOUD AND
METRICS” TO “WHAT DO I NEED TO DO WITH CLOUD AND
WHAT IS AVAILABLE OUT THERE AND WHAT ARE THE GAPS”.

I WANT TO TALK ABOUT FOUR THINGS
Define the gaps and issues in defining an Ecosystem roadmap for
cloud computing technology and business
Identify specific Cloud Ecosystem Notation ways to better visualize
the potential of Cloud in an organization and user experience.
Illustration of specific Vertical Industry Case Studies of Cloud
Ecosystems In action to address security, Service level
compliance, monetization and competitiveness opportunities and
challenges
Specific examples of how to identify and resolve key decisions
affecting a Business and the creation and sustainability of its Cloud
ecosystem

possible trends and outcomes but to recognize the
interdisciplinary nature of real world systems

JEFF BEZOS , CEO OF AMAZON FAMOUSLY ONCE SAID..
IT infrastructure and its attendant setup, management and expense
headaches are “muck”.
“We make muck so you don’t have to.”
Amazon handles the muck of infrastructure and web services
connections and we the users can focus on what we do with it

WHAT GAPS?
Market legislation gaps
Portfolio of services gaps
Vision and strategy gaps
Monetization models gaps
Culture and transformation gap to these cloud models
Operating model gaps
Data Integration aspects of cloud
Service management of cloud
Standards and Interoperability , lock-in , lock-out,
integration….

COST OF INTEGRATION GAPS
Ability to integrate at different levels of connection is often difficult if the standards
and connection points are different for each participant.
Integrating end to end services flowing across different systems that may reside
in one or more locations, technologies and legal ownerships can also be less
efficient through integration challenges. Cost of integration

What User expectations of cloud are ? What can be delivered today ?
Multiple choice of clouds ,or Hybrid cloud developing
Use my own private cloud An entry with many IaaS, SaaS and PaaS development
Elastic scalable storage, compute and network Developing types of storage systems. Evolving multi-tenancy and
“personal virtual data.
Identity to portable and consistent end to end of events Distributed Identity, multiple authentication developing.
Democratization and standardization of services on-demand , but
also
Utility compute and applications. Custom configuration developing
Meaning and context of messages and data is consistent and
reusable
Semantics standards developing still
Opex and innovative licensing and funding New post dot.com funding models e.g. revenue based funding,
crowd funding.

Government economic fit
The World Economic Forum paper – Exploring the future of cloud
computing May 20110
http://members.weforum.org/en/ip/ittc/KeyIssues/index.htm
Key Issues
1. Data governance such as data location, privacy, confidentiality, ownership
2. Security management such as data access, loss, destruction, breaches, and
points of failure
3. Business environment such as portability, interoperability, vendor reliability,
service commitments, cloud ecosystem, and maturity
28. | Infrastructure Services
SUMMARY RECAP - GAPS
• Semantics
Evolution of standards that enable automatic provisioning and comparative
meaning of service requests and fulfillment
• Usability
Development of standards and architecture issues that enable integration and
connectivity to be achieved up and down the stack
• Portability
Development of scalable data stores and “personalized” data that can be
portable and independent of the device and services

SUMMARY - ECOSYSTEM GAPS
Homogenous versus heterogeneous solutions?
• The “China and Japan effect”
• Monopolistic vendors
Standards development
• Making the right choices – Open versus Closed
What metrics do we need that matter?
• Make the right selection – The Open Group have developed independent
Consumer and Vendor measures

SYNOPSIS
The potential vision of Cloud Computing technology and the current adoption by consumers and providers of Cloud computing
vary widely. Whether these are real or perceived gaps between the technology and the desired successful outcomes, many
lessons in use of cloud computing are evolving across different Industry sectors, users and companies.
The rise of social networks and the convergence of business propositions of anything IT-as-a-Service is changing the way
devices, browsers, information and platforms are being used. The impact can be felt at the face of User computing and the
way personal and enterprise work gets done between organizations and marketplaces.
The session will focus on current development and research in new methods to better define and visualize the Business
Ecosystem and the role cloud Computing can play. We will introduce original new work on CIEL Cloud Interactive Ecosystem
Language Notation currently being developed as a potential way of creating new visual stories and use of Cloud enabled
business.
Takeaways
• Define the gaps and issues in defining an Ecosystem roadmap for cloud computing technology and business
• Identify specific Cloud Ecosystem Notation ways to better visualize the potential of Cloud in an organization and user
experience.
• Illustration of specific Vertical Industry Case Studies of Cloud Ecosystems In action to address security, Service level
compliance, monetization and competitiveness opportunities and challenges
• Specific examples of how to identify and resolve key decisions affecting a Business and the creation and sustainability of
its Cloud ecosystem
