  • Transforming Technology Transfer from a Cost Center into a Profit Center Are your intellectual assets working hard enough? It’s a troubling question. Every year, universities, businesses, and government agencies lose millions of dollars in uncollected license fees, avoidable legal expenses, and missed opportunities. Even the most heroic efforts from Technology Transfer Offices aren’t enough. Constantly growing caseloads, paperwork, and reporting requirements keep them swamped. So researchers can’t access critical information. Invention disclosures and legal filings are missed. And valuable marketing opportunities fall between the cracks. KSS TechTracS® changes all this.

Amazon Stealing the Cloud « SmoothSpan Blog - 2 views

  • A survey of 600 developers by Mashery reported that 69% of respondents said Amazon, Google, and Twitter were the most popular API’s they were using.
  • Amazon and Netflix jointly published a great case study and announced Netflix would move more infrastructure into Amazon’s Cloud.
  • A wonderful post on CNet talks about Goldman Sachs’ findings for the Cloud.  There were a ton of them including:           – A ranked list of apps moving into the Cloud.  Web Conferencing and Salesforce Automation were #1 and #2.

  • The majority of SMB’s now have a “SaaS first” policy, they prefer it. 
  • Amazon.com is used by 67 percent of the survey respondents. It is clearly the out-in-front leader, despite being a “newcomer” to enterprise IT. For internal clouds, VMware’s leadership remains pronounced, with 83 percent of respondents using its virtualization technology.  Platform-as-a-service layers are gaining momentum, dominated by Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud, or EC2, service, with 77 percent of respondents choosing EC2 as a preferred partner, well ahead of Google.  These share numbers are why the title of this post is that Amazon is stealing the Cloud.  They represent remarkable share and momentum.
  • UK firm Netcraft finds that the Amazon Cloud hosts 365,000 web sites.  Evidently a number of firms have discovered that web hosting is a great commodity use for the Cloud. -  PC World asks why Amazon doesn’t charge more for its service.  They conclude that AWS is looking to build economies of scale and set low prices that act as a barrier to entry for new competitors.  Like I said, Amazon isn’t afraid of being commoditized for they are the commoditizers.
  • And they’re building barriers to entry of several kinds: -  Nobody but Amazon has the experience of running a Cloud service on this scale.  They can’t help but be learning important things about how to do it well that potential competitors have yet to discover. -  There is a growing community of developers whose Cloud education is all about Amazon.
