Desktop experience is essentially a combination of personalized profile storage, processing engine and Interaction Interface. Personal Profile Storage: Profile consists of preferences such as background color, placement of programs on the screen, Documents (current and recent), Search Results, Alerts(new mail, IM, phone call), password keyring for cloud services, bookmarks, application data(registry entries/file locations) and any other items that are specific to the individual session. Processing engine: The guts of desktop its cpu, memory, network and disk i/o capabilities that drive the performance and intuitiveness of the local and cloud applications such as office or graphics rich apps, Skype, webex etc. Interaction interface: Keyboard, Mouse, Multi-Touch and Display. The elements that assist in user interface and interaction. The trends in personalized storage are rapidly moving to cloud either as storage(google drive/dropbox) or as a synchronization platform(...

Adopting BYOD - Bring your own device is next evolution of Cloud. I am influenced by some arguments around complexity with traditional hypervisor based approached to delivering Applications to BYOD party.  The Virtual desktop infrastructure architectures and use cases are getting complex and expensive. The answer may be Datacenter based Hardware desktops(blade-pc ++) driven by advances energy efficient processor, system on chip technologies and innovations from server vendor in creating massive pools of thinHardware servers based on ATOM/VIA like processor technologies Building a inherently stateless desktops using these thinHardware is amenable for quick and easy provisioning with streamed operating systems.  It can be coupled with dynamic provisioning of user context, applications and data through intelligent provisioning middleware. This approach has a potential to create a compelling architectural choice for a new way to deploy centralized desktop exper...

It all started of with a simple idea of making cloud relevant to Business in India. We felt creating trained manpower is the first step. we had a goal of training 1000 people in 1000 days in cloud technologies. We hired Sai Narayan and Giri Pantla to market the training programs and VMware.  Within a Month, with help of Vinod(vmware) and Avik(vmware). We landed into our first VMware Deal of (Rs. 2,00,000/-). It was an IBM account - a subcontract to us by Venkat of Abacus-a local IBM dealer. With the right credentials and revenue, We became Enterprise Partners of VMware with in one month of our start. Ragesh(Our VMware Partner Business Manager) said, We were the fastest to reach that designation in the partner community.  We landed into several VMware PoCs(VDI etc) and deployment deals later in the year... We started of with a 2 day cloud computing boot camps. In a true cloud style, we used SaaS-SlideRocket(later acquired by VMware) for our first Brochure/Poster. We ha...
