  • 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 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!!

    The physical and informational barriers we once used to differentiate between our "private" and "public" selves are being eroded by technology, and the erosion is accelerating. If we persist in utilizing a zero-sum, spatial conception of privacy to implement the Fourth Amendment, we will render it ineffective as a guarantor of privacy in the face of arbitrary government action. If we continue along this path, the Fourth Amendment will become, in effect, an artifact - a device that protects against a limited class of real-world intrusions (which will become increasingly unnecessary given the other alternatives).

    Informational self-determination refers to the ability of individuals to exercise personal control over the collection, use and disclosure of their personal information by others. It forms the basis of modern privacy laws and practices around the world. [...] At the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario (IPC), we have long advocated a strong role for individuals in managing their personal information, not just by exercising their privacy rights under Ontario law, but also by becoming better informed and using privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs). [...] This paper explores what will be possible if proper digital identity services are deployed and the full power of Cloud computing is realized.

  • Ning within our platform provides a whole suite of APIs for easily building social networking applications; Salesforce within its platform provides a whole suite of APIs for easily building enterprise applications; Second Life within its platform provides a whole suite of APIs for easy building objects that live and interact within Second Life. EC2, at least for now, has no such ambitions, and is content to be more of a generic hosting environment.
  • Akamai, coming from a completely different angle, is tackling a lot of the technical requirements of a Level 3 Internet platform in their "EdgeComputing" service -- which lets their customers upload Java code into Akamai's systems.
  • Amazon's FPS -- Flexible Payments Service -- is itself a Level 3 Internet platform.

  • I think that kids coming out of college over the next several years are going to wonder why anyone ever built apps for anything other than "the cloud" -- the Internet -- and, ultimately, why they did so with anything other than the kinds of Level 3 platforms that we as an industry are going to build over the next several years -- just like they already wonder why anyone runs any software that you can't get to through a browser.

    "This post is my attempt to disentangle and examine the topic of "Internet platform" in detail. I will go at it by identifying three distinct approaches to providing an Internet platform, and project forward on where I think each of the three approaches will go. At best, I might be able to help make a new landscape clear. At worst, hopefully I can at least provide one framework for future discussion."

    The emergence of the networked information economy is unleashing two powerful forces. On one hand, easy access to high-speed networks is empowering individuals. People can now discover and consume information resources and services globally from their homes. Further, new social computing approaches are inviting people to share in the creation and edification of information on the Internet. Empowerment of the individual-or consumerization-is reducing the individual's reliance on traditional brick-and-mortar institutions in favor of new and emerging virtual ones. Second, ubiquitous access to high-speed networks along with network standards, open standards and content, and techniques for virtualizing hardware, software, and services is making it possible to leverage scale economies in unprecedented ways. What appears to be emerging is industrial-scale computing-a standardized infrastructure for delivering computing power, network bandwidth, data storage and protection, and services. Consumerization and industrialization beg the question "Is this the end of the middle?"; that is, what will be the role of "enterprise" IT in the future? Indeed, the bigger question is what will become of all of our intermediating institutions? This volume examines the impact of IT on higher education and on the IT organization in higher education.

    This document is intended to initiate a conversation that will bring together the emerging cloud computing community (both cloud users and cloud providers) around a core set of principles. We believe that these core principles are rooted in the belief that cloud computing should be as open as all other IT technologies.

    We are working to make it even easier for you to build sophisticated, scalable, and robust web applications using AWS. As soon as you launch some EC2 instances, you want visibility into resource utilization and overall performance. You want your application to be able to scale on demand based on traffic and system load. You want to spread the incoming traffic across multiple web servers for high availability and better performance. You want to focus on building an application that takes advantage of the powerful infrastructure available in the cloud, while avoiding system administration and operational burdens ("The Muck," as Jeff Bezos once called it).
