One of the inhibitors for wide scale adoption of e-commerce and other
transactional applications is the perception that cloud-based services are

infrastructure that ensures security, dependability, and the ability to
handle large volumes. In addition, e-commerce applications require proven
credit card processing capabilities.
In his session at the 6th International Cloud Expo, Denis Martin, EVP & CTO
at NaviSite Inc., will discuss the requ... (more)

Call for Papers is now open! Reads: 16,562  By Ellen Rubin The talk at the Cloud Computing Expo this week in Santa Clara was all about enterprise cloud adoption. Is it real? Is it already happening? If so, who’s doing it, which applications are they running and which clouds are being tested? To a large extent, cloud computing is a victim of its own somewhat out-of-control hype cycle. Since so much has been written and discussed about the cloud in 2009, there is now a growing impatience for actual results.

For the first couple years, technology-related conferences are attended by engineers and operations people. Only after the technology has passed a couple of feasibility gates and begun to hit the business cycle do sales and marketing people take over. Cloud is now officially past the engineering phase, well into the sales phase – and the business community is scrambling to understand the implications of a virtualized world.
