Zooming into ecosystem
shows…
The value chain provides
“End Users” choice of service
(i.e. Pick and Choose) for both
the “Personal Users” cloud and
“Enterprise Users” cloud space.
However, there is divisions in
terms of expectation for
companies dealing with
Public, Private and Hybrid for

business requirements

With enormous amount data transacted “Socially”, via “Mobile” that is offered
by “Cloud” (SMoC), Big Data leads in the areas of Research and Analytics
Being Social
Being Mobile
Being Cloud
(i.e. Human has many
choices to a
Smörgåsbord of
applications)
(i.e. Affordability of
devices and wide

Customers calling Telstra recently might have been surprised to be greeted by David Thodey
and members of his leadership team.
Following their regular meeting at the new state of the art call centre in Melbourne, the
executives quickly realised they were in for a surprise. They were told they would spend the next
few hours taking customer calls.

Consulting company + researchIn the region and we know the place well, telco expert, telco researchA deep understanding of the situation – hypothesis chapterSlide 9 – what we can do togetherInnovate, flexible, to meet clients need – understand
Ask 10 people what is the definition of cloud computing. You will get 10 different answer.Example, having an external party run your computers and software, while you use what they deliver and focus on delivering valueget a application without having installed software in my deviceAccessing an ever-ready application anytime anywhere3. Understand today’s cloud trends in understand customer usage with customer research and analytics
Without going through details we are adopting cloud service naturallyNatural process to use, to manage and to decide use-of-information
I message skype, I watch youtube, I performed payment with online bankingWe bring our contact from linkedin, our bring our document from gmail and we share in our company outlook/365We decide what documents to be shared in personal cloud or company cloud
This refers to the ability to:Access What are the available cloud applications, accessibility and etc.?Analyze What is the use of it? Is cloud access secured and safe?Apply/Act How to put cloud into good use? How can we make money etc.?
Workforce typically will have different ICT literacy and information literacy level.Different ICT literacy will lead to different access, analysis and applicationIt gives you a self-check how we use ICT which is predominantly cloud services.
3 successful interworking combination of software, hardware and communication technologies act as a catalyst opening up a multitude of possibilities in servicesCite example watching a youtube HD 1080. The file storage in google hardware servers, softwares provide a good compression of video and communication service provider give a high 5 mega bandwidth
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_access#Digital_subscriber_line_.28DSL.2C_ADSL.2C_SDSL.2C_and_VDSL.29Today 2013, we are users of personal and enterprise cloudCloud service provider public, private and hybrid cloud to usersServices are IaaS/PaaS/SaaS offeredTechnology providers are virtualisation, storage, database, serversCommunication service providers on high speed broadband
1. 2 target segments of users can are smart to “Pick and choose” their desired service2. 3 implementation strategy 3. The cloud are pretty uniformly layered.
If I can timed how much time I spend on the cloud, it will be 4 hours a day.That means, I am generating, transacting and keeping enormous amount of dataBy the way, SMoC is the perfect recipe that lead to Big Data – Research and Analytics
Companies has been continuously building brand and growthCompanies recognized CEM importanceThat is why it’s 3 billion dollar market globally
Consumers continue to be empowered to adapt cloud naturally with the BYOD phenomenon; leading to trends where employees bring their own device/use their preferred cloud service (i.e. Google docs) at work; yet, posing a possible risk by leaking company's private information to the public in the process. Consumers can differentiate (or choose to ignore) which cloud service is "secured" enough to qualify its usage at the work place
Despite cloud readiness ranking divide between developed and developing market, cloud computing adoption push is the key agenda in most national ICT policy in public service delivery and development of digital economy nation.
