By now, most technologists are sold on the fundamentals of cloud computing. It's a realization of the last 20 years of architecture development. For architects and developers alike, the economics of the cloud mean that "we finally get to do what we've been drawing on whiteboards for years." Companies large and small are taking advantage of the cloud's utility model. What used to cost $20+ million can now be done for $500k on Amazon Web Services. This provides unprecedented opportunity - for new and established companies alike.
In this presentation Roman Stanek, is a technology visionary who has spent the past fifteen years building world-class technology companies, will talk about what it means to be 'born on the cloud.' Specifically Roman will share with delegates his thoughts on how to use cloud computing as a technical design center; how to take advantage of the economics of cloud computing in building and operating cloud services; how to dramatically change customer adoption; and how to plan for the technical and operational scale that cloud computing makes possible.

Cloud Computing – The Next Generation of Virtualization
Early industry conversations have focused on external, public cloud infrastructure, often focused on a new breed of applications.

The most pragmatic approach involves taking a first step, that of turning today’s datacenter into an internal cloud. This enables the bridging of internal resources with available external resources, helping businesses achieve the full flexibility and benefits of cloud computing. The result is in essence a virtual private cloud.

Cloud Computing Journal aims to help open the eyes of Enterprise IT professionals to the economics and strategies that utility/cloud computing provides. Cloud computing - the provision of scalable IT resources as a service, using Internet technologies - potentially impacts every aspect of how IT deploys and operates software.
In other words, VMware’s server density is higher. Boles suggests this means that customers should be “assessing virtualisation on a ‘cost per application’ basis. VM density has a sign
Traditionally, the way people have implemented high availability is by using a high-availability management package like Linux-HA[1], then configure it in detail for each application, file system moun
