Theme: Head in the cloud, head for business
Cloud is set to deliver services to the enterprise as well as the consumer segment. Telecom players compete for this business with web giants like Google. Carriers are hoping to leverage their trust relationship and enhanced networks to make headway in storing data and hosting applications. However, there is much to resolve in terms of compatibility, between clouds vendors and between private and public clouds. There is more to do for fast logical retrieval (e.g. tagging), efficient delivery (e.g. mono/multi casting and cascading) and high performance (e.g. buffering, cashing and data compression). No use having ‘head in the clouds’, better have ‘head for business’ when reaching the clouds.
