Use the Cloud to Understand the Benefits

I met my good friend this evening who has become a  cloud computing fanatic in a very short period.
For someone who had a dim view of cloud computing this sudden transformation came as a surprise.
I asked him what  brought about this change !
The answer was simple he started using the Cloud extensively for his work and even started signing up with various cloud service vendors to understand their service levels and benefits and Eureka he was converted to the cloud.
Today he understands the benefits  of the cloud and he does More with Less for his projects which needs him to deliver significant computing provisioning  at short notice for his clients.
He achieves this and  saves money by using the cloud with the help of his credit card..
He was keen to share with me what he has learnt on his cloud surfing adventure and I look forward to share his experiences in this blog sometime in the future.


My advice to the readers of my blog is start Using the Cloud, get those credit cards out and sign up with any of the cloud service providers based on your needs.
Start stress testing the cloud, try a cyber attack on your applications on the cloud, try seeing how it works for you. Run a whole pilot exercise on the cloud and  you would be astounded by the outcome.
If you are not converted as a "Cloud Computing Fanatic" please send me an email, for those of you who get converted keep using the cloud and spread the message to your friends and  your digital community.

Please leave a comment and I would love to hear your thoughts and comments too! 1.        Disinfection Chambers -  You would have to walk into the office through disinfection chambers, entry into the chamber would be post facial and iris recognition for 2 factor biometric contactless authentication.  You could then be tested   for Covid by a nurse through the use of a rapid test kit (Emirates Airline has already deployed the same for airline passengers), there would be a ten minute wait time for the results before you are let into the office. Biomedical Security could be the

Today the cloud is assisted by cognitive and mobility and nation linked by easy data connectivity which has accelerated the adoption and use of technology in rural India.   What can be done for rural India using the cloud - A status check "The cloud will allow information technology to be infused to the smallest hamlet of India and make access to information available to the poorest of the poor to give them a better life by empowering them with knowledge derived through the net book or mobile phone connected to the cloud. The cloud will make the services such as affordable and accessible at a low cost" This has been achieved for rural India by the   Digital India program of the Government.
