Not long ago, the dominant form of electronic communication among people was telephones. The core of the infrastructure was the telephone network. When the Internet emerged during the nineties, IP networks become the new core for electronic communications. Many proprietary standards and technologies died during each of these phases – such as the telegraph and, largely, the token ring.
As cloud is transitioning into the mainstream, it’s likely that the pattern will repeat. For cloud, data is key and so storage needs to evolve a new core architecture based on IP networking. Companies such as Google and Facebook recognized this new core approach and embraced it in their architectures. However, to reach the stage where storage is a standard core architecture akin to IP networks today, we must move well beyond today’s hype.
Lunch Keynote at Cloud Expo | Strategies for App Delivery in the Cloud Era
Cloud computing continues to gain momentum as enterprises of all sizes and across all industries seek to harness the business agility promised by this computing model. Despite its long-accepted benefits, the cloud has also fallen victim to performance and reliability challenges, combined with a perceived lack of security. As a result this has led to slower predicted growth and adoption of this still promising infrastructure methodology.
In his Lunch Keynote at the 13th International Cloud Expo®, Tim Knudsen, Senior Director of Business Development, will discuss how to overcome these challenges, and the role application delivery solutions play in optimizing public and hybrid cloud architectures without sacrificing performance, security or control.
