SDSC Begins Cloud Computing Research - 0 views

  •  
    Cloud computing -- defined by the ACM Computer Communication Review as a large pool of easily usable and accessible virtualized resources that can be dynamically reconfigured to adjust to a variable load and operated on a pay-per-use model -- has been generating considerable attention throughout the high-performance computing community, in both the commercial and academic sectors. This new model is seen as a possible way for researchers to move from processing and managing their own data sets locally, to relying on large, off-site, commercially-managed data clusters.

Cloud security: Feds on cusp of change -- Federal Computer Week - 0 views

  • Virtualization has been setting the stage for many of these issues for years, he said, but “what cloud computing is forcing us to look at is the survivability of systems…and protecting the data,” Hoff said. “While I hear the perimeter is going away [as a security approach], I disagree; it’s multiplying and the diameter is contracting,” Hoff said. “You’re going to outsource responsibility, but not accountability. So we need open standards and better visibility.”
  •  
    Interesting view on depermeterisation. Hoff's view is that the protected assets are in smaller clumps and still have a perimeter.

Windows Azure Platform. Inside the Cloud. Microsoft's Cloud World Explained Part 2. - A... - 0 views

  • Windows Azure provides three core components, Compute, Storage and the Fabric, along with the Fabric controller. Compute is effectively the Windows operating system, this is an instance. These instances contain a copy of your application. Instances also come in two flavours, a Web Role or a Worker Role. Web roles accept and process HTTP requests using IIS. Not everything you may want to run in Windows Azure is a Web application, so Windows Azure also provides Worker roles. A Worker role instance is quite similar to a Web role instance. The key difference is that a Worker role does not have IIS preconfigured to run in each instance. Web and Worker roles can communicate with each other via technologies like WCF, or using Windows Azure Storage queues.
  • Windows Azure platform Appfabric Windows Azure platform AppFabric is made up of two components, Service Bus and Access Control. Before going into these two components it’s worth noting that there is also a product called Windows Server platform Appfabric, currently these two “Appfabric” products are different, however they are the same product teams within Microsoft and their product roadmap includes closer synergy over time.

    hmmm, material snagged from the white paper I worked on.  :O I'm not too surprised, and it is on MS's blog, who technically owns the material anyway.  Great reuse!!

Youseff et al: "Toward a Unified Ontology of Cloud Computing" (PDF, 2009) - 0 views

  •  
    Towards the end-goal of a thorough comprehension of the field of cloud computing, and a more rapid adoption from the scientific community, we propose in this paper an ontology of this area which demonstrates a dissection of the cloud into five main layers, and illustrates their interrelations as well as their inter-dependency on preceding technologies. The contribution of this paper lies in being one of the first attempts to establish a detailed ontology of the cloud.

  •  
    Have you signed up to try Google App Engine for Java yet? We were so overwhelmed with the response to our early look at Java support on App Engine that we decided to let more developers in now, without waiting. Thus, we're expanding the early look signups to 25,000 developers, in order to give more of you a chance to try it out. So please sign up, give it a try, and let us know what you think. We've already seen a number of interesting apps built and deployed. Stay tuned for us to point some of the cooler ones out in the coming weeks.

Google App Engine for Java: Part 1: Rev it up! - 4 views

  • Remember when Google App Engine was just for Pythonistas? Those were some dark days. Google Inc. opened up its cloud-computing platform to Java™ developers in April 2009. In this three-part article series, Java technology author and trainer Rick Hightower gets you started with this reliable, robust, and fun platform for Java-based development. In this article, you'll get an overview of why Google App Engine for Java could be the deployment platform for your next highly scalable killer app, then start using the Google Plugin for Eclipse to build two example apps: one based on Google Web Toolkit (GWT) and one based on the Java Servlet API. You'll learn for yourself what a difference Google App Engine for Java makes, both in building out an application from scratch and in deploying it to the tune of up to five million views. (And that's just the free version.)

Hyper-Scale your Microsoft Azure Business - 0 views

  •  
    Service providers need to realize that the Cloud business is different than their earlier offerings - traditional hardware or solution and infrastructure managed services. They must transform quickly and direct their focus on modern applications, platform-as-a-service (PaaS), or containers and PaaS rather than just on infrastructure management. The only way forward is to incorporate agility in operations, leverage new-age toolset, establish governance, increase optimization, and invest in security as an integral part of managed services.
