Cloud Computing And Android Apps For The Indian
Download as PPT, PDF12 likes2,644 views
Cloud computing is now accessible from smartphones and netbooks, enabling a micro-IT revolution similar to microfinance. Apps for platforms like Google Android allow users to do almost anything via affordable mobile computing power. There is potential for collaboration across society to enable this micro-IT revolution and provide IT services in small, accessible chunks for non-expert users. Research is needed into developing cloud apps, requirements evolution, and validating perpetually updating apps through open-source methods.

- 2. Cloud computing with access from smartphones/netbooks is now a reality Micro-IT revolution is in the making (just like micro finance) with Apps for multiple mobile platforms, notably for Google Android enabling to do “almost anything”! Micro does not mean cheap, it means doing wonderful computing at affordable cost Indian masses can use the computing power on-the-go to take our standard of living and of life to the next level There is potential for collaboration across various sections of society to enable micro-IT revolution
- 3. Providing IT services in “micro” chunks The needs do not substantiate use of conventional computers Sporadic need No expertise to manage . There are other micros than microfinance/ microblogging Microlearning

- 8. "I think there is a world market for maybe five computers“ (misquoted for Thomas J Watson) Is becoming true today: “ Around 20 per cent of all the servers sold around the world each year are now being bought by Microsoft, Google, Yahoo and Amazon.” (Source: Microsoft research chief Rick Rashid)
- 9. Cloud: Ecosystem Packaged Apps
- 10. an area that contains organisms interacting with one another and their non-living environment. Symbiotic relationships Competition Plants: Information generators Birds/Animals: Information consumers Bacteria: Startups Scavengers? Non-living environment: Humans
- 11. Ecosystems can be of any size Forest: Internet Cloud Meadow: hybrid Cloud (with migratory birds) Log: Private Cloud “” if the cloud overloads (or goes down), users can outsource CPU cycles to a different cloud. IBM and Juniper Networks will demonstrate how a hybrid cloud could allow enterprises to seamlessly extend their private clouds to remote servers in a secure public cloud, as high priority applications are given preference over the lower priority ones when resources become constrained... Once installed, IBM and Juniper could seamlessly roll client workloads from Beijing to Silicon Valley to Sao Paulo to ensure that clients never miss a service level agreement.”

- 14. RICHARD STALLMAN LARRY ELLISON simply a trap aimed at forcing more people to buy into locked, proprietary systems that would cost them more and more over time. "It's stupidity. It's worse than stupidity: it's a marketing hype campaign” includes everything that we already do "fashion-driven" and "complete gibberish". Even free software has significant cost of ownership And sometimes just not feasible due to technical needs

- 36. Let’s face it, the cloud is the future, and while Apple has struggled (cough- MobileMe -cough) with that future, Google owns it . Google Search. Gmail. gCal. Google Docs. Google Maps. YouTube. Knol. Chrome . And the list goes on and on (and on). If they can flip the switch and truly, seamlessly integrate everything, not only between applications but across desktop, laptop, and handset, it will make for perhaps the most compelling offering ever on the market.
