The Future of Cloud Computing: Strategies and Design Event in Taormina, Italy
10 March 2011 - 10 March 2011
Austria
Web 2.0 is rapidly taking hold, offering "the web as a platform". In parallel, traditional client-server computing is starting to lose ground as a new paradigm emerges - the Cloud Computing paradigm. Cloud Computing allows data centers to operate more like the Internet by enabling computing across a distributed, globally accessible fabric of resources, delivering service based on demand over the web, reducing software complexity and costs, expediting time-to-market, improving reliability and enhancing accessibility of consumers to government and business services. Thus, Cloud Computing represents a true materialization of Service-Oriented Computing's visionary promise.
Resources and Services Virtualization without Barriers (RESERVOIR) is a European Union FP7 funded project that enables scale deployment and management of complex IT services across different administrative domains, IT platforms and geographies. The project provides a foundation for a service-based online economy, where - using virtualization technologies - resources and services are transparently provisioned and managed on an on-demand basis at competitive costs with high quality of service.
This event will present the latest results in Cloud Computing, highlighting its potential and describing the main findings of the pioneering European project RESERVOIR. Researchers, system administrators, software developers, services providers, CIO of SME and PAs will benefit from participating to this workshop, get updated information and have the opportunity to assist to a live demo of cloud computing principles that will pave the way towards a new challenging approach to services provisioning.
IBM will cover the RESERVOIR project's goals and achievements as well as define the Cloud Computing concept and its applications.
Participants will be shown a demonstration of the RESERVOIR Framework, with a particular attention given to the OpenNebula open source component.
Industrial and government applications in the Cloud from SAP, Telefónica and THALES will be detailed.
