New developments in cloud technologies have revolutionized the way organizations interact with their customers. Today it is all about consumer experience, consumer insights, consumer behavior, consumer journey. With rich media, the very focus of digital marketing and commerce has shifted from product-centric to consumer centric.
Cloud computing has enabled the global access for consumers across the world – for the right person, at the right time, and the right content. The side effect of this is consumers are more empowered and therefore have much higher expectations. And the omni-channel nature of basic consumer interaction leads to very high demands on the ability to consume, analyze, and repurpose data to deliver a much more personalized consumer experience. Without the advancement in Big Data technologies, this would quickly become an infeasible and unmanageable situation.

Cloud Expo | Understanding Workloads: All Data Is Not Created Equal
Cloud data centers must support a full spectrum of workloads from the highest performance and lowest latency (hot) to bulk storage and archive (cool and cold) low workload applications. Balancing the right mix of storage helps data centers manage explosive petabyte growth, while efficiently managing performance, power consumption, cooling and storage space to help reduce total cost of ownership (TCO). Depending on the storage tier – hot, warm, cool or cold – each workload requires different SSDs or HDDs for meeting performance, capacity, availability, physical space and economics.
In his session at the 13th International Cloud Expo®, Clint Ludeman, a Technical Product Line Manager at HGST, to discuss the key to selecting the right storage design with the right specifications for the right workload.

How Do You Eat a Network Security Elephant?
A cloud security take on an old riddle: analyze risks, identify needs, develop priorities, deploy scalable model, and leave room for dessert.
Security is big. It encompasses a great many definitions, confronts a great many issues and is addressed through a great many solutions using a great many formats. For many organizations, it can be an overwhelming proposition. Beyond the issues of data defense, regulatory compliance, traffic management, identity regulation, archiving, reporting, access control, intrusion detection, encryption, app administration, help desk assistance, there is the job the IT pro was hired to do…ensure the smooth technical operation of their organization. Securing the disappearing network perimeter and beyond has become more than a full-time job in itself.
