Agenda • The Public Cloud and Platform As a Service • Eye On Earth • Cloud Computing Investments & An Overview of the Windows Azure Platform • The Future of Cloud Computing
Public Cloud Defined Public cloud or external cloud describes cloud computing in the traditional mainstream sense, whereby resources are dynamically provisioned on a fine-grained, self-service basis over the Internet, via web applications/web services, from an off-site third-party provider who bills on a fine-grained utility computingbasis.[26] • Not rip and replace • More than virtualization • Services building blocks

Increased Operational Efficiencies Admin to server ratio of 1: 1,000-3,000 On-demand provisioning Eliminates hardware maintenance 27 MW datacenters operated with Less than 50 people Public Cloud 10x efficiency in admin to server ratio • Use what you know; Connect to what exists • Interoperable & Heterogeneous2 • Open, flexible
Eye On Earthhttp://www.eyeonearth.eu • European Environment Agency (EEA) • Water and air quality data from the 32 member countries of the EEA • Networking 600 partner organizations across research institutes, universities, ministries and agencies • 6,000 monitoring stations • Used to develop and implement environment policy for 600 million citizens • Cloud services: Windows Azure, SQL Azure, Bing Maps • Video: http://tinyurl.com/eyeonearth • Case Study: http://tinyurl.com/eoe-casestudy
Economies of Scale • Worldwide datacenter investments
Cost Reduction in Public Cloud Right-sized Servers • Eliminates unnecessary components • Increased power efficiency • Optimized performance by workload Reduced Infrastructure costs • Servers operate at higher temperatures • Use of free air cooling where possible • Advanced power management techniques • Eliminate chillers • Commodity hardware purchased in quantity Server Consolidation with Virtualization 90% decrease in power per-server costs*
North Central U.S. Datacenter $500M+ investment 1.5 million man-hours-of-labor 700,000 square feet 3400 tons of steel 7.5 miles of chilled water piping 190 miles of conduit 26,000 cubic yards of concrete 2400 tons of copper

What’s Next For Cloud Computing • Simplifying the complex • Agility and entrepreneurship • Hybrid applications & premises aware systems • Ride, don’t resist the wave of data • Synchronized, multi-form factor user experiences
Wrapping Up (just one more slide…) • Bet on the public cloud for new innovation and to extend what exists • Cloud computing abstracts complexity and be heterogeneous and open • There are new frontiers for the cloud to power multi-format user experiences and harness the explosion of data on the web
