Mobile Cloud Computing: Que réserve l'avenir? Mobile Cloud Computing: What Does The Future Hold? When industry pundits forecast in 2006 that the usage need of data would surpass that of the voice market, not many could not conceptualize such a market outlook. Five years later and the ratio would pitch data market at nearly 70% of the mobile market and growing. The mobile technology has witnessed tremendous advances in recent years such that experts have reckoned that mobile cloud will colligate cloud computing in the next few years. Mobile cloud computing is set to impact and transform the mobile communication landscape and the whole computing infrastructure. Mobile cloud-enabled and cloud-based services will inevitably rise to new heights as it is evidenced by recent market surveys. There is a trend dubbed the BYOD (bring your own device) that is being embraced universally by organizations and businesses. What is influencing the inevitable mobile computing upsurge?

Envoi de téléphones cellulaires dans le Cloud The problem with mobile phones, says Allan Knies, associate director of Intel Research at Berkeley, is that everyone wants them to perform like a regular computer, despite their relatively paltry hardware. Byung-Gon Chun, a research scientist at Intel Research Berkeley, thinks that he might have the solution to that problem: create a supercharged clone of your smart phone that lives in “the cloud” and let it do all the computational heavy lifting that your phone is too wimpy to handle. CloneCloud, invented by Chun and his colleague Petros Maniatis, uses a smart phone’s high-speed connection to the Internet to communicate with a copy of itself that lives in a cloud-computing environment on remote servers. The prototype runs on Google’s Android mobile operating system and seamlessly offloads processor-intensive tasks to its cloud-based double. Details of the project will be revealed at the HotOS XII conference in Switzerland later this month.
L'utilisation des applications mobiles dans le cloud computing reste difficile When the subject of application portability comes up, the interests of enterprises and cloud computing providers collide. Enterprise organizations want to run their applications seamlessly across on-premise IT, private clouds and Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS) public clouds. Portable applications give users flexibility to do this -- and to move to different providers -- but vendors aren’t eager send business to their competitors, said Dan Cornell, principal, San Antonio-based, Denim Group. These clashing needs and the technology challenges of achieving application portability make cloud usage challenging today. Ideally, an organization would be able to post applications and data to and from any cloud platform from any device. Without simple application portability, vendor lock-in is hard to avoid, experts said. The definition of an API may not be totally transparent, which causes problems. Portable application standards nascent
Cloud Computing mobile va exploser en 2012 Connaissance »Data Center It’s no surprise that many cloud experts predict that mobile cloud computing will become increasingly important in 2012. Given the numbers of smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices shipped every day, more and more users are relying on the cloud as the main driver for satisfying their computing needs, whether it is data storage, applications or infrastructure. A simple Google search for smartphone sales in 2012 quickly reveals booming sales expectations, not least in growing markets like India and China. One of the main reasons for the growth is the availability of affordable devices across all platforms including Windows, Android and Bada. Secondly, the application of smartphones in industry and corporate settings is supporting increased sales. Previously, the Blackberry was virtually the only accepted corporate smartphone platform. Although security issues are still creating many concerns, perhaps especially for the Android, this trend shows no signs of slowing down.
Mobiles défis du Cloud Computing | Prix et récompenses Highlights Smartphones stimulate growth of mobile cloud computing. Mobile cloud services offer potentially significant revenue growth. Four key strategies should be considered to overcome the challenges of mobile cloud computing. Application usage on mobile devices has exploded due to the increasing popularity of smartphones and tablet devices like the iPad, along with ubiquitous network connectivity. The corresponding growth in data centers has elevated interest in cloud computing in our industry. According to Gartner research the global cloud computing services market could reach $150 billion by 2014.[] However accurate this prediction turns out to be, the growth in data center build-outs and the proliferation of ’smart‘ devices are real and happening now. Key factors in user-perceived performance of cloud computing In cloud computing, resource-intensive computing is offloaded to the cloud to leverage the cost advantages of massive data centers.

Mobile Trends and Cloud Computing Did you know that there will be 10 billion mobile Internet devices worldwide by 2016? Along with that prediction, smartphone traffic will be 50 times the size it is today. Those figures can only mean one thing: More mobile apps! Mobile app development will dominate in the near future. The supply-and-demand is high, too; check this out: In the period of 2009-2014, cloud-based mobile apps market will increase by 90%. Engine Yard, one of PaaS solution providers, released a very useful cloud computing infographic showing you the big picture in mobile and cloud computing innovations. Courtesy of: Engine Yard

Will NaaS and Mobile Cloud Computing test sky limits? While visiting our daughter just before the start of this year's school season and touring Philadelphia, she showed us a local corner coffee shop where she, a proud summer intern scientist, and her scientist boss did a good part of their summer research work for a Fortune 100 company using cafe's free WiFi. This addressed our summer long confusion as to why we could not find company's Philadelphia office address. The fact that mobility is essential to our lives is obvious and evident with the pervasive use of mobile devices such as smart phones, tablets, mobile clients and desktops in enterprises, and public places such as coffee shops, parks, buses, trains, libraries, campuses to name just few. Then there are recent forecasts of up to 50 billion mobile connected "machines" over the coming years, including appliances, smart meters, security systems, healthcare devices, etc. Cloud Computing has already been extended well into the mobile domain. Please let me know your thoughts.
Opérateurs de réseaux mobiles et le cloud (1/2) | Thèmes Cloud Computing This article is the first of two about our conversation and is a general description of how I see MNOs currently positioned to the cloud. The second article will be somewhat more technically inclined. Telecoms are late entering the cloud domain Companies bring different perspectives to cloud computing, depending on their market, location, jurisdiction, and industry. In addition, the “cloud” has a very open meaning and encompasses a variety of configurations, mainly public, private and hybrid clouds. Generally it has been said that SMEs and startups are more inclined to go for public cloud services (web servers, storage, etc.), while larger companies move more cautiously and either prefer to establish a private cloud environment or a hybrid context. When it comes to telecoms and data centers or cloud services, I think they are in a unique but fragile situation. Like this: Like Loading...
Mobile + Nuage = L'avenir se joue The combination of mobile and cloud technologies seems a match made in heaven. The cloud is highly flexible and charges on usage, while the mobile technologies deliver the applications everywhere and anywhere the users might need them, really fast. I have largely touched upon the subject when I wrote about theiCloud. In addition, in terms of mobile cloud, the mobile browsers and apps seem to be the most common used tools. Because both technologies are very flexible and can be delivered virtually anywhere, cloud and mobile are a natural fit. This CISCO report identifies the latest trends in the development of these 2 technologies. Smartphone producers should give the user the possibility to switch between operating systems. Two of the most lucrative technology markets seem now to unite. Photo source:
