There are lots of articles trying to promote cloud computing. Most often the term cloud computing is confused with “Software as a Service “ (SaaS) or “Infrastructure as a Service” (IaaS) which some companies are trying to sell as cloud computing.
Our cloud computing model is based on the concept of a geographical (or local if needed) computer cluster concept and will reside under full control of the customer’s data center personnel. Its cost will be very competitive with the SaaS and IaaS models. It will provide much higher reliability and security than SaaS or IaaS models.
How is this possible?
When we look at computer technology, it resembles a giant puzzle. Each piece of this puzzle is often developed independently of other pieces. Very few people really grasp the large picture and most of us work confined to a narrow field.
This is the reason why most improvements that we witness are inadequate. We can create better computer languages, better operating systems and better databases, but when it comes to creating a great product combining all of them, we have many problems.
The most important part in developing a great game-changing product is not the vision, but the knowledge that all pieces needed to implement that vision are available.
At CRII we have a team with very diverse backgrounds. All of us have many years of IT experience and a unique understanding of the evolution of this industry and its weaknesses.
We are working on the prototype of a system that will be very scalable, self-protecting, and self-managing (autonomic). All pieces of necessary technology are already available and proven. The only thing to do is to put this puzzle together.
