Is the Managed Service Provider (MSP) Business Outdated? By @IanKhanLive | @CloudExpo #Cloud
Over the last few weeks I was fortunate to meet a large number of Managed Service Providers (MSPs) at two separate industry events in Toronto. At both these events, focused on MSPs, and through all my conversations, one thing that resonated throughout was the dire state in which Managed Service Providers are currently conducting business. I am sharing my thoughts to help make sense of what the industry is going through and how the inability to adapt can lead to the slow death of an otherwise highly successful industry.

The Future Is Hybrid: Seven Paths to Get to the Cloud By @GerardoDada | @CloudExpo #Cloud
If you work in IT, you’re likely bombarded with vendor messaging about the cloud. Yes, understanding the cloud is a requirement for all technology professionals, but it may seem that the cloud is all anyone is talking about these days. And right or wrong, many IT departments are even adopting a cloud-first mentality.
Now, we do believe the cloud is the future of IT, but – and this is a big but – it’s not for everything. The cloud is like using a rental car: quick and cheap, but a Hertz is not the ideal mode of transportation to get to the office every day. In other words, the cloud isn’t the best solution for all workloads.

Jelastic, Inc., has launched their latest release – Jelastic Cooper 4.6. The main focus of this version is a new reselling option that makes PaaS and CaaS business accessible for a wide range of hosting companies and MSPs.

And we count these moments. These moments when we dare to aim higher, to break barriers, to reach for the stars, to make the unknown known.” In these words it is explained the main aim of Jelastic 4.6 release – to make such fast growing trends like DevOps and microservices available for hosting business, to provide hosting companies of different sizes with ability to reach new market, to let them try something unknown (but perspective) without upfront investments, and in this way to break the barriers.

PaaS, Data Lake and Analytics | @CloudExpo #BigData #DataLake #PaaS #IoT
Asurion is a provider of technology protection services and the business operates in the intersection of consumer devices, mobile technologies and IoT. Analytics forms the backbone for its products, services and competitive advantage. Analytics for us is not isolated silos of reporting, dashboards, predictive and Big Data analytics, but a series of rich models that emerge when we combine all data within the enterprise.
With our enterprise data currently at 3 Petabyte and growing at over 2 Petabyte every year, there is an urgency to manage data volume from diverse sources, and to efficiently mine rich, timely insights from it. A data lake architecture for transactional, operational, and reference data, built on a cloud-hosted platform, was our solution for our needs, but it also came with its own challenges.
