Balancing Regulation and Innovation for Cloud Computing in India

Cloud computing is the most recent paradigm shift in Information technology. While it is not a result of any major technological breakthrough, Cloud Computing feeds on the advances in scalability and affordability of Power, Cooling, Security and Virtualization of Servers/Storage/Networking technologies.

The most comprehensive industry accepted definition of Cloud computing is from NIST “Cloud computing is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction “

The cornerstone of cloud computing is a new operational service model (SaaS, PaaS, IaaS) and new IT Infrastructure deployment model (Private, Community, Public and Hybrid Cloud)

The Prudence of Indian Government policies coupled with Industry enthusiasm have been fruitful to revolutionize information dissemination in past by encouraging massive adoption of
• Terrestrial, Cable and Satellite Television
• Wire line and Wireless Telecommunication
• Emerging Broadband and Internet adoption

Cloud Computing is a nascent Industry segment that needs nurturing and encouragement for India to emerge a global leader in this sunrise trend.
There massive need for cloud computing both for consumer and enterprise use.

Today 48% of Consumers of Mobile Phones are Internet users and use phones primary access devices. The data storage, application and security needs of these consumers are best addressed by cloud based information infrastructure.

The average spends on Information Technology as a percentage of Revenue is steadily increasing due to the pressures of global competition. The typical deployment model for IT infrastructure is capital intensive with long gestation. Cloud computing enables creation of burst able , on-demand infrastructure with a quicker provisioning and shorter time-to revenue. This allows the Industry leap frog from closet-held server directly to cloud and avoiding expensive captive datacenter buildouts.

There are handful data center and network providers that can deploy global scale coud computing platforms out of India.

The Power, HVAC and Security costs for creating massively scalable cloud computing farms are all but prohibitive in India.

There is need for government to create level playing on par with International Cloud deployments with appropriate regulatory measures for lower power tariffs, captive power plants and efficient cooling systems.

Information Infrastructure for Human Advancement - Vedic thought

Human Advancement is a far-cry when we are living in a world where human existence is threatened by man-made vulnerabilities. Human existence is threatened by Global warming - Natural disasters Health Crisis - Drinking water, Biodiversity/Genetically Modified Food, Virus Outbreaks Materials Crisis - Availability of Petroleum/Rare-earth for EV's (Lithium/Dyspersium) Security Crisis - Cyber Security/Data Breaches Global Political/Economic environment – Sanctions/Tariffs Purpose and Motivation Purpose of this conversation is to discuss the application of emerging technologies in information infrastructure for improving resilience of the human race and aspire for human advancement. This requires understanding key concepts of AI/Deep learning/Machine Learning, Nueromorphic computing and Pervasive computing in the context of  human interactions. There is need for a Multi-disciplinary approach involving Non-STEM and STEM(Science, Technology, Engineering and Math). Thi

Living a dream...five years of moving from services to lasting products.

RCV innovations has transformed from a training and consulting outfit to product based services organization.  The last five years had a see-saw effect on our existence as a viable business. We cannot forget the contributions of our mentors, early patrons and partners- Niranjan, Brad, Rakesh,Dorothy, Avik, Supriya, Sridhar, Bhaskar, Jaipal, Kishan, Joseph, Goutam, Mishra and many others. I am deeply moved by the faith some of our new customers have placed on us by adopting VAMANiT appliances for their business needs. Our team is grateful for the opportunity to serve you to the best of our ability. I am humbled by the commitment and excitement the team has shown in executing our new Nested Data center strategy. The pace at which we have trained ourselves in cutting-edge VMware vSAN and NSX technologies is noteworthy.  We are applying our VMware knowledge to Strategic and Mission critical applications by integrating energy efficient purpose built VAMANiT Nested Data Center ap

VAMANiT...Dream is alive...Four, Fortunate and Focused...

This was a year of transformation. On the Services front it exciting but a little of the map. We assisted a startup with Docker orchestration platform development. We developed Responsive web services based wine e-commerce sites with a view to getting to assist a SaaS platform. We played positive role assisting our key partner with setting up India presence. We have realized that our structure is not a fit for such projects.we are systematically exiting out of non-core services only activities. We had shrink in size due to changed business situation. We are currently assisting only one SaaS platform - 366 and we have rights to resell the platform India. 366 platform will also be the customer communication front-end for VAMANiT. This strategy is helping put our best resources on 366 to make it better.  We have moved the needle on India business. We have had a chance to enter to Government/Public Sector. We are serving customers such as ECIL(Govt. Of India) with vCl
