Storage Cloud 101
Unlimited storage available over the internetOn-demand and Elastic
Over-provisioning: A thing of the past
Web services interface (REST,SOAP)Other protocols can be built on top of these
Cost typically based on actual storage and bandwidth usedOff-site
Ideal for Secondary and Tertiary Storage
Amazon S3 is the market leader

Flexibility
Location of Application Binaries
Locking up your backup data in
proprietary formats (including proprietary clouds) comes with a
HUGE cost.

Example Use CasesBiopharma – various applications
Collaboration, grids for compound analysis
Compute intensive statistical analysis
Challenge: internal lead times, cost of data center build-out
Cloud payoff: agile deployment, cost savings, application compliance, portability to avoid lock-in
Health insurance – claim form processingGrid processing of 10M's claim forms for fraud, etc.
.NET based application, hybrid system, HIPAA compliant
Challenge: support business, avoid $1M+ data center build-out
Cloud payoff: automation of scale-up and scale-down, enabled contracts previously not possible
27
Example Use CasesMedia – social networking site
Web 2.0: Rails, MySQL
Challenge: scalability, agile deployment, automation
Cloud payoff: quick on-ramp, responsive to flash crowds, easy to clone for other projects
Software – version update site
Parallel updates for thousands of installations
Challenge: servicing frequent update efficiently
Cloud payoff: scalability for speed, cost-savings
