The rise of the hybrid cloud Hybrid clouds feature an infrastructure that combines private cloud security with cost-effective, powerful and scalable public cloud attributes. IT executives get more choices for personalized solutions while big data advocates and security experts are still satisfied. As hybrid models become mainstream, more companies are likely to adopt this cloud deployment model. Big data Analytics Many organizations are realizing that it may be much simpler and more beneficial to combine big data analytics with cloud computing than to choose one over the other Big data as a service seems like one of the most practical options for big data analytics, as it is scalable and within the reach of any organisation, no matter its size or resources.

Global SaaS software revenues are forecasted to reach $106B in 2017, increasing 21% over projected 2016 spending levels. Enterprise cloud subscription revenues are forecast to reach $67B by 2018, attaining a CAGR of 17.3% in the forecast period. Read on →

Cloud Market Overview The cloud marketplace is real; the cloud marketplace is now; and CSPs are well positioned to take advantage of this opportunity. Enterprises are steadily shifting their IT spending to cloud services. While many are starting with hosted email and Web-based CRM applications, the adoption of Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) and Platforms-as-a-Service (PaaS) is increasing significantly. Clearly, service providers able to offer cloud services that meet and satisfy the insatiable enterprise demand for cloud computing will reap sustained and predictable revenue and profitability.

Let’s compare various vendor offerings and the features provided by them categorized by the various categories according to which they are compared.

ScaleIO ECS is a software-only solution that uses application hosts’ local disks. Features: Simplified operation- ECS enables IT administrator to manage the entire data center stack. Avoid capacity planning- ECS is elastic, enabling you to add, move, remove servers and capacity during I/O operations. Self-healing- It rebalances whenever capacity and/or servers are added. Dynamic performance allocation- It provides dynamic allocation based on applications’ needs. Freedom of choice through hardware vendor lock-in elimination.

Jeda Networks game changing intelligent software product called the Fabric Network Controller (FNC) abstracts the complexity of a storage network into a software controller. The Jeda FNC creates a high performance “storage network overlay” on top of an Ethernet fabric. This Software Defined Storage Network (SDSN) transforms the Ethernet fabric into a powerful and agile storage networking fabric. SDSNs solve the limitations of a fixed and rigid physical storage network—namely scalability, high cost, high complexity, and lack of agility Features: Maximize Performance Cut Management Costs- mapping your SAN requirements to the physical Ethernet network No Hardware Lock-In The FNC has been successfully integrated with a number of multi-vendor 10Gb, 40Gb and 100 Gb Data Center Ethernet switches and as FNC is independent of the network hardware the FNC is software, it is network and access speed agnostic, so as speeds migrate to 100Gbs and beyond, the FNC will continue to work within these leaps of performance., it is 10, 40 and 100Gb Ethernet ready today.
