I’m doing a 7 minute presentation of the ReliaCloud platform at the MinneDemo event in February.  It’s a good opportunity to network with the developer and tech start-up crowd in the Twin Cities area.  I’ve never had to give such a short tech presentation before so I definitely need to fine tune my standard demo presentation.

I’m back after taking a few months off from the blog. Whew, what a busy time in my life — both at work and at home. I’ve now got two kids under the age of 2 at home and they definitely require much of my attention. Don’t get me wrong… I love spending time with my wife and kids but it definitely takes time away from other pursuits.

What’s going to happen with cloud computing in 2010? I think we will see a couple things:

  • Greater adoption by enterprises as cloud providers deliver more features
  • New cloud vendors trying to carve out market share
  • The evolution and rise of PaaS
  • Little movement towards a concrete set of cloud computing standards
  • Increasing interest in private clouds

Now we’ll have to wait a year to see if I was right!
