When it comes to measuring applications’ performance across our local enterprise network, we think we know what network latency is and how to calculate it. But when it comes to the cloud there are a lot of subtleties that can impact latency in ways that we don’t immediately realize.
In his session at the 10th International Cloud Expo, Jelle Frank van der Zwet, Manager of Cloud Segment at Interxion, will more closely examine what latency means for deploying cloud applications, how you can keep track of it and reduce it for your particular purposes and cloud-based applications.

“Cloud computing represents a paradigm shift for IT, transforming computing power into a utility,” observed James Weir, CTO and Co-Founder of UShareSoft, in this exclusive Q&A with Cloud Expo Conference Chair Jeremy Geelan. “While cloud adoption remains in the early stages,” Weir continued, “this shift means that the overall market will grow massively in the coming years.”
Cloud Computing Journal: Agree or disagree? – «While the IT savings aspect is compelling, the strongest benefit of cloud computing is how it enhances business agility.»
James Weir: Agree. Cloud computing is not just about cost savings but adding value and creating new business opportunities. Many of the customers I speak to definitely see these benefits too. Cloud computing enhances business agility by providing «self-service» access to compute, network and storage resources through automation. And we’re now seeing enterprise customers and cloud providers start to focus on the next big open question: software agility. Software delivery to the cloud needs to benefit from the same automated process to provide users with on-demand access to IT applications. UShareSoft’s tools are designed to do just that.
