Will Government IT Contracts Follow Vivek Kundra to Salesforce.com?By Tony Kontzer So, in other words, having declared that the federal government must turn to the cloud in order to shed its wasteful IT past and adopt more cost-effective and user-friendly IT platforms--admittedly sound thinking--the nation's first CIO Vivek Kundra, at the ripe old age of 37, has managed to maneuver himself into a position where he'll be one of the notable financial beneficiaries of that strategy.

Federal IT Security Incidents: Is Solution in The Cloud?By Tony Kontzer In light of the shocking rise of security incidents at federal agencies, it seems important to point out that public cloud vendors are highly motivated to make security a top priority, lest they lose the faith of their customers.

Data Analytics at the 'Speed of Thought'By Susan Nunziata What, exactly, is speed-of-thought? Would that be "speed-of-thought" before or after you've had your morning coffee? Has Oracle discovered that thought travels at breakneck speed -- much like those little neutrinos which some physicists suspect are able to travel faster than the speed of light?

The Social Enterprise: Big Ideas, Fuzzy DetailsBy Tony Kontzer What we didn't really hear at Dreamforce 2011 was how Salesforce's smorgasbord of tools comprises a comprehensive platform that can be used to build a social enterprise, which is what I believe they're getting at. Unfortunately, Benioff & Co. didn't offer a lot of practical advice for CIOs on how to make this happen. September 1, 2011 Thursday, September 01, 2011 12:19 AM/EST
Vivek Kundra at Dreamforce: Ex-Fed CIO Touts Social Media RevolutionIt sure sounded like the seeds of a revolution were being planted by none other than former U.S. CIO Vivek Kundra during a panel discussion Aug. 31 at Salesforce.com's Dreamforce 2011 conference in San Francisco. No, Kundra didn't suggest Americans take to the streets and seize the country by force--it wasn't that kind of revolution he was talking about. August 3, 2011 Wednesday, August 03, 2011 12:42 PM/EST
The Speed of CloudBy John Parkinson if you're contemplating moving significant data volumes to and from the cloud, network issues such as bandwidth and latency (and error rate over prolonged transmission times) matter a lot - and might just cancel out the potential savings from all that cheap storage and on demand computing capacity.

Apple's iCloud: What's So Special?By Tony Kontzer As long as Apple maintains its Apple-as-the-center-of-the-universe approach, the service will remain the iCloud, not The Cloud. May 23, 2011 Monday, May 23, 2011 11:39 AM/EST
Cloud Computing: What's it Really Mean?By Tony Kontzer Cloud computing isn't as grandiose as it sounds. It's a nebulous term used to describe a very general concept, namely the idea of tapping into a utility IT model so that a company can focus on what it makes and sells, rather than investing oodles of time and energy creating its own IT environment.
