August 18th, 2009 Now New and Improved! Cloud Computing in an Office-Type package

The hype around cloud computing has many wondering – what does it mean to me? How will it fit into my current infrastructure? Will the cloud based solutions work with my current applications? What about vendor lock-in?
To a large extent, these concerns are very valid and real. Businesses need practical solutions which demonstrate the advantages of the cloud computing in their own home turf, for their own unique requirements and in their own unique infrastructure.

And vendors have started to hear these business demands and are coming up with solutions that just makes the perfect business sense. A complete win-win!

RightScale announced this week their new business intelligence (BI) solution. The public-cloud management company has teamed with Jaspersoft, Talend and Vertica to deliver a push-button BI offering that leverages Amazon’s cloud infrastructure. BI is very important – so important, in fact, that many companies would be hesitant about migrating their BI processes to the cloud. However, because the RightScale offering is self-service and pay-by-the-drink, companies can run ad hoc BI jobs without investing in new infrastructure or overloading existing resources.

See the excellent demo video here which demonstrates how quick and easy it is to launch a full fledged BI solution using the RightScale’s package.

Microsoft perfected the art of selling packaged solutions with Office – RightScale may very well perfect the art of selling packaged Cloud Computing solutions.

Businesses demand, Vendors fulfill – the cycle of business world moves on…
