With an ever-increasing number of companies now buying computing, storage,
and networking power as they need it from the cloud, it is hardly surprising
that SYS-CON's industry-leading International Cloud Computing Conference &
Expo series is going from strength to strength.
Now held three times a year, in New York, Prague, and Silicon Valley, the
organizing principle of each International Cloud Computing Conference & Expo
remains the same: our aim is to ensure, through an intense and carefully
chosen program of technical and strategic breakout sessions, that attending
delegates leave each Conference with abundant resources, ideas and examples
they can apply immediately to leveraging the Cloud, helping them to maximize
performance, minimize cost and improve the scalability of their Enterprise IT
endeavors.

Reminding people of how its backing was the making of Linux, IBM, to no one's
surprise, has thrown its support behind cloud computing, that delicious nexus
of every chi-chi buzzword technology currently in vogue: Web 2.0, rich
Internet applications, software-as-a-service, SOA, grid computing, Web
Services, virtualization and utility computing.
IBM calls its initiative Blue Cloud - like it could have another name - and
claims it's a "game-changing model for Internet-scale computing," providing
customer with just the right size computer power while at one and the same
time being "green" as well as "self-healing and self-managing" based on open
standards and Linux.
Lordy, if this thing was a cute guy with money, it would be every mother's
dream.
Anyway, IBM says it's got 200 researchers around the world developing Blue
Cloud technology and it's collaborating with some... (more)

What are the three companies expected to benefit most from the cloud
computing boom? One answer would be Google, Akamai, and VMware - according
anyway to the Rule Breakers newsletter run by the founder of The Motley Fool,
Dave Gardner.
"At Motley Fool Rule Breakers, we believe cloud computing will massively
disrupt the desktop computing industry that came before it -- and we think
three stocks, in particular, will profit handsomely from the shift," writes
Tim Beyers, who adds:
"Cloud computing is to storing and processing data what the electrical grid
is to plugging in your television: a scalable way to deliver services while
matching supply and demand across the grid."
But SYS-CON's Cloud Computing Journal would most certainly add Amazon to the
list of the heaviest heavy-hitters in cloud computing. In fact, right now
there are as many as fifty companies highly activ... (more)
"The Internet IS cloud computing," according to a holiday-time broadcast on
National Public Radio. The program, called 'Will Cloud Computing Work in the
White House' aired December 21 on NPR's All Things Considered and involved
NPR's Andrea Seabrook discussing with security and technology experts how the
White House
computers should run under incoming President Barack Obama.
The program focused on how cloud computing technology can potentially be used
to improve government services - a much discussed topic as the new
administration moves into the White House.
Experts consulted included Google's Vint Cerf (a.k.a.'The Father of the
Internet') and Dataline's expert on Cloud Computing Security, Kevin Jackson.
Jackson discussed how cloud computing can make data and computing more secure
than traditional systems.
Cloud computing would also improve collaboration, an area that... (more)
