Email - sponsor@virtueinsight.com CONFERENCE INTRODUCTION:- The future is definitely on the cloud! Cloud Computing has become one of the hottest IT enterprise topics of recent times. It is fast becoming mainstream with large steps being made in a relatively short period of time. Cloud Computing has become a scalable services consumption and delivery platform in the field of Services Computing. The technical foundations of Cloud Computing include Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Virtualizations of hardware and software. The goal of Cloud Computing is to share resources among the cloud service consumers, cloud partners, and cloud vendors in the cloud value chain.  SaaS market in India is largely dominated by email, collaboration tools, CRM/ ERP and currently stands at $123-143 million for CY11. The SaaS market has grown at a CAGR of 46 percent from $56-67 million in CY09 until CY11. The PaaS and IaaS markets in India on the other hand are rapidly growing, though from a small base, highlighted the study. The PaaS market in India is at $1.5-2.5 million in CY11, which has grown at a CAGR of 75 percent from $0.5-1.5 million in CY09. IaaS market in India on the other side stands at $38-47 million as in CY11. The idea of virtualizing not just hardware but software resources as well has attracted the attention of academicians as well as the industry. Cloud computing not only offers a viable solution to the problem of addressing scalability and availability concerns for large-scale applications but also displays the promise of sharing resources to reduce cost of ownership. Virtualization is driving a fundamental shift in how we think about data center environments. It is lowering capital and operational costs, enabling IT agility, underlying Green IT initiatives and fuelling the cloud. This conference helps us to be aware of this paradigm shift and discusses the benefits of virtualization. According to a research, “Virtualization penetration has surpassed 50 percent of all server workloads, and it continues to grow. A study predicts that 75 percent of call centers will incorporate cloud technology into their operations by 2013. This trend has resulted in an increased interest in Appointment-Plus enterprise scheduling software as a solution for better managing customer service appointments and callbacks. The overall Indian market for cloud (both public and private) has grown steadily to reach approximately $860 - 912 million. The public cloud market has rapidly evolved in the last 2 years in India with significant traction across SaaS, PaaS and IaaS(infrastructure as a service), added the study. With the current market of $160-192 million in CY11, public cloud in India is at a very nascent state of the market and may not have hit the inflection point yet, indicating significant future potential. Public cloud market is expected to grow at 55 percent CAGR in the near future and will become a default choice for new IT investments, especially in the SME segment. We will not be surprised, if cloud takes up more than 20 percent of the total Indian IT spend in the next couple of years. This would also mean that there will be a significant demand in the job market for cloud computing related skills." Additionally, the huge global and domestic opportunity that exists in the cloud space, has excited a lot of Indian start-ups and in fact 20 percent of the total public cloud market in India is currently being addressed by Indian companies. According to a research, firm share content and to access it on multiple devices will motivate consumers to start storing a third of their digital content in the cloud by 2016. Also just seven percent of consumer content was stored in the cloud in 2011, but this will grow to 36% in 2016. 6th Cloud Computing Summit 2012 is the only event focused on how traditional enterprises can adopt cloud computing models, featuring panels of thought leaders, candid conversations with industry luminaries. The conference is a reality check to better understand enterprise cloud computing. Cloud computing is big news, promising unlimited capacity and pay-as-you-go economics, plus connections to an always-on world. Enterprises are excited about cloud computing but little of it is ready to use yet. Clouds present security risks, and many enterprise applications have to be completely rewritten to run on scalable clouds. Forward-thinking business leaders are using the cloud within their enterprise data centers to take advantage of the best practices that cloud computing has established, namely scalability, agility, automation, and resource sharing. Although the term 'cloud computing' is relatively new, the technologies that make it possible have been used for some time. For example, cloud computing is enabled by grid computing, virtualization, utility computing, hosting and software as a service (SaaS). This Cloud Computing Summit is the place to meet all the key decision makers from all of the Cloud service providers in one place. This summit will address the current state of the market, the business value of the cloud, deployment strategies and integration techniques, security and privacy issues and will take a look into what the future holds for Cloud Computing.
