• Nice @Deloitte! Enjoyed your Cloud Computing: A Collection of Working Papers

  Date: 2010.03.31 | Category: Capacity Building | Response: 1

  Deloitte recently published some thinking their team has been doing on the pros and cons of businesses moving their IT infrastructure to the cloud. Levitra pill Over the counter viagra The introduction sets the stage nicely: “cloud computing represents a different way to architect and remotely manage computer resources”.

  Good start. We completely agree. Levitra pas cher Viagra levitra

  What I liked most about the article is that the authors ABSOLUTELY believe that services in the cloud are robust enough for big enterprises. Online levitra They do however caution that organizations should take their time migrating to the cloud, using the same type of decision-making and patience they would use for any significant change.

  Tomi Miller and George Collins highlight four key considerations when developing, then implementing a cloud strategy. These are:

  1. Next generation data centre management – a low-risk opportunity and significant cost savings for companies.  Transitioning existing systems to the cloud offers opportunity to outsource non-core functions for most businesses. Brand viagra Kauf von viagra
  2. Architectural planning, simplification and transformation – logical next step in the service-oriented world is to consider the best software selection and approach: “Build versus Buy versus Lease” (as software development decisions).
  3. Policy-oriented business and risk management – scaling business operations requires harmonizing within and across external networks and value chains.
  4. Cloud management – as cloud tools evolve, so too does each organization’s approach to managing how much to adopt and when. Cheap viagra online

  How does this apply to our work Levitra contraindicaciones ?

  Our office has been gazing down the horizon of where technology is going, especially in the cloud.

Viagra sale Levitra achat Not the massive demographic shifts. Viagra alternatives Not the downturn in the economy. Not even all cumulative deficits of our municipal, provincial and federal governments. Viagra sin receta Levitra prix pharmacie Not 10 tsunamis or earthquakes that all happen at once (well, maybe). Nothing is going to change the landscape more than technology. Viagra bestellung Pastillas levitra

  However, most funders and charities are not taking a strategic approach to the pros and cons to technology, let alone the cloud. We hope to galvanize a conversation about this, starting at NetChange week, scheduled for June 7th to 11th, 2010 at MaRS. We are going to be giving a keynote address at the conference about cool tools and processes.
