+fast development and mgmt
-growing complexity +security, -risk

+business cooperations
-maintenance complex or

11. Possibilities of cloud computing for SMEs
classic IT IT with cloud computing
Getting slower, more lets SMEs innovate simplified,
expensive, SME is left behind fast and effectively to
approach new business
niches with global outreach
and reduced risks
Slows down the innovation of
the SME's core business ... if done right!

What black sheep whisper in your ear
How to recognize sustainable chances for the development of
your business

24. Black sheep and real business chances
For the black sheep you are only one of
many customers. For you it might be
your life's work!
Careful if somebody promises a rose
garden.
Cloud computing must follow your
business, not your business the cloud.
Your business
your future SuperDuper
Cloud

25. Black sheep
Access control:
where is my data located? Can I acess it anytime? Data loss?
Compliance:
insufficient multi tenancy, violated governance rules
Service providers:
broke provider, unknown subcontractors
(in Germany) the CEO is held responsible for following all IT
policies – also when using the cloud.

26. How to recognize real business chances
Significant potential for cost saving by using IT resources
dynamically
allows real agility and creation of value for your IT
meaningful integration of IaaS, PaaS and SaaS
hybrid models with "guarantee of mobility"
Bottom Line: Cloud- Computing is meaningful if it allows high
business agility, a infrastructure that is stable and available
anytime, combined with reduced costs.

"Beware of salesmen
that have answers to all of your problems
without having asked you a single question!"
Chuck Ian Gordon

29. Navigation to your goal...
If somebody wants to help you getting to your goal
he must know your position (your situation).
"One size fits all" will fail!
The cloud computing gold rush - © 2012 Skilltower Institute - www.skilltower.com 29
30. Navigation to your goal...
Vendors and service providers
Salesforce (SaaS)
Amazon S3 , EC2 and AWS (Combination of IaaS and PaaS)
Microsoft Azure (PaaS)
VMware vCloud Services
Other providers (GoGrid, Rackspace etc.)
What is the advantage for your IT?
Where in your company do you profit most?
The cloud computing gold rush - © 2012 Skilltower Institute - www.skilltower.com 30
31. Legal aspects (Germany)
provider dependency
Microsoft Azure and Amazon offer few "ways back"
VMware vCloud Services as neutral eco system
guarantee of service relocation to another vendor
physical sovereignty for your data: Do you have data access in a
reusable format anytime?
data protection and availability
server location and court of jurisdiction of the provider
details of contract with the provider and his subcontractors

Arm wrestling with
King Kong isn't wise!
Exception:
Convenience products, where
provider change is easy.
Partnering rule of thumb:
small with small,
medium with medium,
large with large
