Ensuring Technical Readiness For Copilot in Microsoft 365
Cloud in 2013
1. Cloud Computing.
Last year evolution.
(from mid 2012 to mid 2013)

2. Agenda
Some things that happened in the last
year
Cloud Computing is connected with
everything happening today
Some futurist thinking
Come back to reality
3. Speaking at OracleWorld
(2008), CEO Larry Ellison
sayd: “the computer
industry is more fashion-
driven than women's
fashion and cloud
computing is simply* the
latest fashion”
CNet
Business Insider
* Enphasis added by me
Translation: As I don’t have
this, this is nonsense
4. “Cloud computing is a
fantastic opportunity for
technology companies
to help customers
simplify IT”
June 2012
YouTube
Oracle
Translation: Now that I have
this thing, cloud computing
rules! (And the competency
sucks)
7. We can see that PaaS is
not taking off as
expected*, but there’s
big opportunity in IaaS,
where Amazon is
showing the path.
*PaaS has not moved in
the Gatner hype cycle in
the last year
9. Dell stops its IaaS offer…
Showing that IaaS is more than just having the hardware and
the data center. You need people, processes, tools, …
Keep an eye on IBM & HP…
11. In fact, my opinion is that Cloud Computing is
going to save Microsoft. Now there’s a
business model: selling services instead of
licenses.
If you keep trying to sell licenses, somebody
will do it for free sooner or later, and you’ll be
out of business. Open Source is bigger every
day.
28. But this is not going to stop…
…Cloud Computing is a better model
and Darwinism will make it’s selection
29. ¡¡ Thank you !!
