Cloud computing has emerged as one of the hottest topics in marketing. By employing cloud technology, marketers can more effectively manage the peaks and valleys of marketing campaigns. In this workshop, we will discuss the advantages, pitfalls and ways to maximize its effectiveness.
Software as a Service Finished leased applicationsInfrastructure as a Service – Developer platforms that abstract away the infrastructure such as operating system and middleware to drive productivityPlatforms as a Service -
Yes, I know companies that
We can scale up on demand
All we need is a credit card, I don’t even need to tell procurement, we can make the Amazon Web Services bill look like a lunch with the boss
Now that we just got used to the concept of no physical servers, let’s take it one step further and get rid of operating systems.Platforms are different from infrastructure as a service in that they get rid of a lot of the things needed to manage an operating system and let developers focus on code specifically.
Developers and system admins had massive work to deal with, writing code and managing operating system patches, security and tuning.
All this results in lower startup costsFaster time to marketMore budget focused on the businessBetter scalabilityIn some cases even procurement goes away

Security really boils down to auditable and secure process. The cloud providers continue to grow their ability to audit and manage their infrastructures. Recently Amazon passed a PCI compliance certificationEUIn technology architectures realiability really boils down to redundancy, this is built into the way clouds are built. For example, AWS has a presence across regions, leveraging that it’s even easier to build DR into your architecture
