Cloud Computing and Virtualization 2010 – Conference in Singapore

Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel
Singapore

Cloud Computing and Virtualization is the only event focused on how traditional enterprises can adopt cloud computing models, featuring panels of thought leaders, candid conversations with industry luminaries. The conference is a reality check to better understand enterprise cloud computing.

Cloud computing is big news, promising unlimited capacity and pay-as-you-go economics, plus connections to an always-on world. Enterprises are excited about cloud computing but little of it is ready to use yet. Clouds present security risks, and many enterprise applications have to be completely rewritten to run on scalable clouds. Forward-thinking business leaders are using the cloud within their enterprise data centers to take advantage of the best practices that cloud computing has established, namely scalability, agility, automation, and resource sharing. Although the term ‘cloud computing’ is relatively new, the technologies that make it possible have been used for some time. For example, cloud computing is enabled by grid computing, virtualization, utility computing, hosting and software as a service (SaaS).

Virtualization is driving a fundamental shift in how we think about data center environments. It is lowering capital and operational costs, enabling IT agility, underlying Green IT initiatives and fueling the cloud. This conference helps us to be aware of this paradigm shift and information on the complete advantage of the benefits of virtualization.

The goal of Cloud Computing and Virtualization conference is to provide a forum for researchers, academics, and practitioners to discuss all aspects of Cloud Computing.

Cloud Computing is defined as a pool of virtualized computer resources. Based on this virtualization the Cloud Computing paradigm allows workloads to be deployed and scaled-out quickly through the rapid provisioning of virtual machines or physical machines. A Cloud Computing platform supports redundant, self-recovering, highly scalable programming models that allow workloads to recover from many inevitable hardware/software failures and monitoring resource use in real time for providing physical and virtual servers on which the applications can run.

A Cloud Computing platform is more than a collection of computer resources because it provides a mechanism to manage those resources. In a Cloud Computing platform software is migrating from the desktop into the “clouds” of the Internet, promising users anytime, anywhere access to their programs and data. The concept of cloud computing and how virtualization enables it offers so many innovation opportunities that it is not surprising there are new announcements every day. The innovation will continue and there will be massive value created for customers over the coming years. Most technologists are sold on the fundamentals of cloud computing and it’s a realization of the last 20 years of architecture development. The conference throws light on  how to use cloud computing as a technical design center; how to take advantage of the economics of cloud computing in building and operating cloud services; and how to plan for the technical and operational scale that cloud computing makes possible. Virtualization is a huge topic, and this conference helps to understand virtualization concepts and technology.
