  4. Benefits The Good

  5. Benefits - Cost • Convert CapEx into OpEx • Consumption based, pay for what you use • Adjust capacity to meet demand • Decrease TCO - economies of scale • Increased ROI – reduced overhead costs

  6. Benefits - Capacity • Not limited by current datacenter constraints • Feasibly infinite capacity • Resources available “on demand” • Host/Deliver from almost anywhere • Almost immediate availability

  7. Benefits - Strategic • Resources available in hours, not days/weeks • Adjust to demands quickly • Fulfill temporary needs • Flexible implementation, mix & match resources • Free key resources from mundane tasks • Easily combine multiple resources

  11. Challenges – Perceptions • Less Secure • Not yet proven • Just another fad • Don’t want to be the first • Should work like on-premises

  12. Challenges – Latency & Stability • Not as fast as on-premise • How to move massive amounts of data • Scaling up for performance • Coding for Failure • What if my provider goes away?

  13. Challenges – Costs • Consumption model holds less predictability • What happens too existing asset investments • Properly projecting costs • Economic Denial of Service • Dependencies on CapEx

  14. Challenges – Compliance • PCI, HIPPA, SOX, etc… • Health & Activity Monitoring • Integration with existing ALM practices • Holding your provider accountable • Vendor Transparency

  19. Opportunities – New Projects • Prototyping, proof of concepts • Start in cloud, move to on-premises when ready • If it fails, not left with excess capacity • Speed to market rapidly increased

  20. Opportunities – Multitenant Solutions • No costly re-architecting • Rapidly scale out with multiple silos • Isolate costs for each tenant • Geo-locate solution close to client
