Identity as The Common Denominator for Cloud & SOA
October 26, 2009
Hong Kong, China, October 22
With a full room of providers and consumers present at OpenGroup’s Hong Kong panel session, Gavenraj Sodhi, Director of Business Development at Skyworth TTG Holdings Limited, presented ‘Identity as the Common Denominator for Cloud & SOA.’ It became apparent through interactive conversations that interest is accelerating towards secure and scalable services-based and flexible models where enterprise solutions may be deployed, used, and managed.
Reducing the usage and implementation costs of traditional applications into a services-based approach allows for measurable ROI on a metered usage basis. This allows improved manageability and efficiency for firms that want to deploy solutions rapidly, within strict cost parameters, via 3rd party or private cloud providers and invoke metered usage. Although it is clear that the market is still young a few subjects came out of the conversation during the session including referencing existing usage models and reviewing the transparency that needs to exist between existing enterprise solution deployments and those in the cloud.
Several key factors pushing corporations to consider the move to cloud include:
- Efficiencies that allow IT groups to focus on more critical areas of business
- Cost measurability
- Accountability
With any technology innovation in its early days, security of identity and corporate data and transparency of data moving across existing environments with auditability are critical elements to put into one’s requirements.
Skyworth TTG Holdings Limited continues to advise our clients and acknowledge with our expertise that the following areas are in continuous improvement as market demand grows and more complex applications and services get deployed:
- Lack of sufficient Service Level Agreements
- Lack of Transparency
- Lack of Standards
- Ineffective Security Usage
- Interoperability between providers
Mr. Sodhi, addressed that there are a number of areas that have experienced convergence between Enterprise and Cloud Implementations including:
- Authentication, Authorization, and Administration
- Regulatory Compliance
- Business Compliance and Governance
- Business Competitiveness
- Improved Risk Management
- Quality of Service
