IBM Smart Cloud Enterprise – The Smarter Move
IBM Smart Cloud Enterprise is offered as a service called IaaS to deliver the best infrastructure for any business. The user then gets access to IBM’s virtual server and all the resources that go with it. The services are flexible and the security is unmatched. It also provides a cloud for private and open cloud architecture, while giving software business solutions at the same time.
One would be mistaken if one thinks that all clouds have the same things to offer. That is simply not true and the IBM cloud is far superior in every way to the other clouds in the market.
How cloud opportunities are set aloft by Ethernet
Ian Redpath, Principal Analyst, Network Infrastructure
The 10th Ethernet World was held in Prague September 30 through October 2. The global enterprise Ethernet service market continues to grow robustly. For full-year 2013, Ovum projects a $34bn Ethernet service market worldwide, growing to $62bn by 2018 at a 13% CAGR.
Ovum chaired the cloud services and data center day at the conference. The industry discussion on cloud services continues to mature based on new business model constructs, a growing body of compelling use cases, more data center–optimized connectivity, and growing high-capacity mobility deployments. The industry has been openly discussing impediments to cloud adoption to date, enabling a productive discussion on potential solutions.

Day 3 Keynote at Cloud Expo | Navigating Storage in a Cloudy Environment
As the storage landscape continues to change, the industry must differentiate and mature its business beyond a standardized market by designing new platforms, features and products for specific customers and application workloads. New products and services in the cloud are fueling the growth for faster storage solutions and improvement in throughput and I/O performance with no latency. Economical and operational pressures in the data center to do more with less are driving the need for reduced total cost of ownership (TCO).
In his Day 3 Keynote at the 13th International Cloud Expo®, Steven Campbell, CTO at HGST, will address industry “pain points” that are keeping IT managers up at night, and the solutions that will help them sleep better.
