Do we need a cloud standard or just one good old IT management standard?
Tuesday, July 1st, 2008It is my belief that what we today call the “cloud” will really just evolve into a complex IT infrastructure of the future, and in the end, will just be referred to as infrastructure. There is no doubt the traditional IT landscape of the last 20 years is going through a substantial transformation on […]
Bridging The Clouds
Monday, June 30th, 2008Hmmmm… is this true?
Armijo says that several small cloud-computing firms including Elastra and Rightscale are already on board with 3Tera’s standards group.
Bridging The Clouds
Is Everyone an aaS?
Monday, June 23rd, 2008There has been a lot of name calling among cloud vendors and a lot of cloud vendors have been calling other vendors aaSs by defining them into three specific categories. They seem to be making an aaS of themselves in the process. In my opinion trying to fit all cloud vendors […]

That’s What I’m Talking About - 3Tera
Tuesday, May 20th, 2008Virtualization holds lots of promise: Move your physical machines to virtual ones, and you’ll reclaim capacity at the same time that you make operations easier. But applications seldom run on one machine; instead they’re a combination of servers, switches and routers. 3Tera’s recently announced product road map may let companies provision whole data centers atop […]

Cloud Pontification #2
Monday, April 7th, 2008Smoothspan is a SaaS blogger I follow on my reader. He often has good articles on SaaS and stuff, but today, I think he went out on a limb and got a little “cloudy” on his latest topic. See his blog and my comments.
Hurry, The Cloud Computing Platform Opportunity is Perishable!
If I Were a CTO at IBM - “Blue Cloud Stuff”
Friday, April 4th, 2008IBM CTO Presentation in Chicago
I would want to know that Amazon does more than just sell books.
I would have heard of 3Tera.
I would know who Cassatt is.
I would read this article before I mention the Google/IBM Cloud initiative. This way I wouldn’t be confused between the difference between Cloud servers and […]

Saturday, March 29th, 2008Elastra - Another Cloud Provider
Tuesday, March 25th, 2008Elastra Cloud Server
I spoke to the founder of Elastra, Kirill Sheynkman, last week about his new cloud offering, “Elastra Cloud Server”. The Elastra Cloud Server is what I call a “Level 1 Cloud” that is designed to run on top of Amazon’s EC2. Due to their well-designed architecture, however, they have basically positioned themselves to […]
Cloud Talk Wiki
Sunday, March 23rd, 2008It was only a matter of time before some opportunistic person created a Cloud Wiki. Oh, that dude was me. The Wiki is actually running on a 3Tera grid however due to magical nature of clouds this doesn’t really matter. Hopefully this week I will be able to write a blog atricle […]
Is IBM’s Blue Cloud a Cloud?
Wednesday, March 19th, 2008Last year IBM announced their Blue Cloud. Since then a few of their Blue Clouds have showed up around the world. A few months ago IBM announced a Blue Cloud in Wuxi China and today they announced another one in Dublin. The question is, are these really clouds or just steroid […]

Abstraction of the software from the service
Cloud Movements
Sunday, March 16th, 2008Let’s have a cloud party 2009. Here is a list of my predictions.
Mosso adds a new service that is 3Tera like and now Rackspace has the holy trinity of hosting providers.
3Tera and Rackspace partner.
Rightscale becomes cloud agnostic by building their own grid framework.
Rightscale is acquired by a big player (e.g. Sun).
IBM waits for someone […]
Cloud Pontification
Saturday, March 15th, 2008James Governor of Redmonk wrote a blog article called “15 Ways to Tell Its Not Cloud Computing” and as much as I like these guys I believe his article was way off the mark. First off as I have been saying, some cloud definitions need to be drawn before you talk about clouds otherwise the […]
