Cloud Storage Technology
The cloud network provides unlimited online storage for you. Easily upload, store and transfer files and digital media. And, in an industry first, you can deliver that content to your users at blazing speeds over Limelight Network's content delivery network (CDN).
Files up to 5 GB in size can be uploaded to the cloud network in one of four ways: through JTurbo, through the cloud online control panel, via the cloud network API, or through software third parties are making for the desktop and mobile devices like the iPhone.
Inside the cloud network datacenter, intelligent software makes multiple copies of your data on at least three different devices in two distinct zones of the datacenter. (Each datacenter zone uses separate power and network connections.)
Cloud CDN Technology
The files you elect to be public are shared out over a content distribution network with locations all over the world. The first time your content is served to a worldwide user (one in Tokyo, for example), a copy of the content will be stored in cache on the edge servers in that location.
The next time the content is requested, its pulled directly from the cached copy on the edge servers, dramatically reducing delivery time. In this way, the CDN technology integrated into the cloud network gives your content world-wide presence.
The Industry's Simplest CDN Experience
No programming required
Use JTurbo or the same, simple web interface you use to upload content to the cloud network. Just right-click any container to make it publicly available across Limelight's CDN. A URL is then provided for use in your site or application. An open API is also available for programmatic control.

What is Cloud Computing?
You may have heard the term cloud computing or 'the Cloud,' but could you describe what it is? There are so many definitions flying around that you wouldn't be alone if you struggled to define it. Cloud computing is simply a set of pooled computing resources and services delivered over the web. When you diagram the relationships between all the elements it resembles a cloud.Cloud computing—not to be confused with grid computing, utility computing, or autonomic computing—involves the interaction of several virtualized resources. Cloud servers connect and share information based on the level of website traffic across the entire network. Cloud computing is often provided "as a service" over the Internet, typically in the form of infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), or software as a service (SaaS).
Cloud computing customers don't have to raise the capital to purchase, manage, maintain, and scale the physical infrastructure required to handle drastic traffic fluctuations. Instead of having to invest time and money to keep their sites afloat, cloud computing customers simply pay for the resources they use, as they use them. This particular characteristic of cloud computing—its elasticity—means that customers no longer need to predict traffic, but can promote their sites aggressively and spontaneously. Engineering for peak traffic becomes a thing of the past.
The 101 Guide to The Cloud
Using Cloud ComputingCloud computing delivers flexible applications, web services, and IT infrastructure as a service, over the Internet, using a utility pricing model. Cloud computing allows businesses to instantly scale their technology requirements to meet new demands. The Cloud is a cost-effective approach to technology because businesses don't need to make usage predictions, upfront capital investments, or over-purchase hardware or software to meet the demands of peak periods.
With the right approach, cloud computing can work for any size organization. The industry has seen the highest uptake from startups and tech savvy developers, however, enterprises are starting to adopt cloud computing. Examples of this include pharmaceutical companies using the Cloud to perform drug research analysis and online retailers trying a new strategy for surges in seasonal website traffic.
As you move into any new technology, it's important to understand the benefits or use cases it offers. It's imperative to carefully plan the implementation of cloud technology to ensure maximum ROI.
Steps to Implementing The Cloud
1. Plan and Be RealisticThe most important first step when implementing a cloud solution is to establish clear and realistic goals. Approach the planning process with patience—don't try to do too much too soon. Also, you should consult key internal stakeholders at the outset of any cloud implementation. This includes legal advisors and indemnity insurers to ensure full protection if a data breach occurs. Other internal stakeholders, including those who sign off on technology purchases (e.g., the CEO in a small or medium business and the IT Director in a larger organization) must also be consulted.
2. Identify the Problem
Once the objectives have been outlined, take inventory of your applications and consider which ones should be moved first. Next, identify the in-house expertise available to support the migration. A thorough assessment of the applications to be migrated to the Cloud is crucial before any investment is made. Consider which applications are best suited for the Cloud and why.
One approach is to determine where you have the most IT pain today and where you stand to gain the biggest benefit from the Cloud. Another approach is to migrate less "risky" applications-those that are not core to the business or customer facing first. You may want to start testing the Cloud with a low risk or legacy application that needs to be refreshed. This will give your team time to learn more about working with the Cloud.
Implementing cloud does not have to be a complex project. Complexity, or simplicity for that matter, will be dictated by the planning that goes into the project prior to start, the chosen cloud provider's approach to migration and setup, and the type of applications to be migrated.
3. Choose the Right Partner
Choosing the right cloud partner is another key component for ensuring a successful and long-term partnership. Be sure that the Cloud provider is going to support you. They should care about your success and share in both your achievements and your challenges.
Key questions to ask a cloud provider during the selection process include:
- How long has the company been offering cloud services?
- Is the company profitable? If so, for how long has the company been profitable?
- Does the company provide a reliable and secure service? What compliance and controls are in place for the service?
- Does the company provide 24/7 technical support? Are there additional costs associated with the support provided? What is included in the company's technical support? How many support techs are on the support team?
- What technologies does the company's Cloud service support?
- Does the company have a product roadmap they can share?
- What is the service level agreement associated with the service?
- Does the company require a long-term contract to sign up for the service? Are there any setup costs associated with sign up?
- Are discounts available for high volume usage? If so, at what volume levels?
- Does the company require a minimum monthly spend?
- Is there a free trial period offered with the service?
- Does the service enable mobile access?
4. Implement "The Cloud"
After you've selected your cloud provider, and identified which applications you want to migrate first, it's time to begin your implementation. Email is usually a good place to start because it is one of the most painless IT applications to migrate. You can also try your email in the Cloud in a phased approach starting with a handful of users to pilot the program before fully committing. The Cloud is painless to try before you buy because the purchasing process is simple and there are no long-term commitments.
After the pilot program, reassess how the Cloud is working for your business needs. If everyone is happy with the performance and cost benefits, it is time to work with your cloud provider and begin a broader deployment.
Remember to evaluate your needs over time to see where you can gain new benefits from the Cloud. The Cloud is not a static technology and, as such, will continue to evolve and change. Because cloud provider-vendor relationships are fluid, you can move to better technologies without penalty.
Remember, the Cloud is a complement to your current IT investment. It is not an all-or-nothing solution, but something that can be adopted over time with careful consideration and planning. Each cloud implementation should be based on your company's individual IT needs.
5. The Time is Now
The time has never been better to start experimenting with the Cloud. The tightening economy means businesses have a greater need to get value for money and this is one of the primary benefits of cloud computing. It enables businesses to match costs directly to revenues to scale up and down very quickly. Experimenting now with the Cloud will put businesses in the best possible position to not only survive, but flourish when the recession ends.
Myths About The Cloud, And the Truth Behind Them
Myth: Cloud is just a fad.Truth: Cloud as a term is new, but the concepts and requisite technologies have been evolving for years (many years in some cases). Cloud computing continues to emerge as a game-changing technology, with high adoption rates and investment. Gartner Research predicts that by 2012, 80% of Fortune 1000 enterprises will be paying for some form of cloud computing services. Cloud computing is here to stay.
Myth: The cloud is not secure.
Truth: Public clouds are fundamentally multi-tenant to justify the scale and economics of the cloud. As such, security is a common concern. Whereas the traditional security perimeter is a network firewall, the cloud security perimeter now becomes the hypervisor and/or underlying cloud application. So far, security in the cloud has been good, but this is very cloud-dependent and requires a solid design and operational rigor that prioritizes security. Also, handing your data and systems to someone else requires proper internal controls to ensure that not just anyone has access. Be sure to ask potential cloud computing providers about security from technical, operational, and control perspectives, as well as what experience they have being stewards of customer systems and data. If the public cloud is fundamentally not secure enough, consider an on-premise cloud, virtual private cloud, or some sort of hybrid cloud solution (see Truth #10) that allows you to maintain the level of security you require.
Myth: The cloud is not reliable.
Truth: No system has 100% uptime, and neither does the Cloud. Given the scale, however, cloud computing services are typically designed to provide high redundancy and availability. While this same level of redundancy/availability is possible to achieve in-house or with dedicated hosting, it's generally cost prohibitive except for the most critical systems. The cloud enables a higher level of reliability at a fraction of the cost.
Myth: Performance is a problem in the cloud.
Truth: It depends. There are different types of clouds and use cases. In many instances, performance is higher in the cloud because there is more available capacity and scalability. In other cases (most notably running a database server), performance may be less than a traditional server. It's best to benchmark your application in the cloud to determine any performance impact (good or bad). If performance is an issue, consider a hybrid solution (see Truth # 10) that allows you to synergize the best of both worlds: the scalability and cost efficiencies of cloud computing and the performance of dedicated servers.
Myth: Customers lose control in the cloud and get locked-in.
Truth: There are different types of clouds that offer different levels of customization and flexibility. Clouds that implement standard technology stacks and are participating in cloud standardization efforts are your best bet to enable application mobility. Traction for open clouds is gaining momentum and the future will involve federation between public-to-public as well as public to on-premise/hosted private clouds. Ask your cloud computing provider about their participation in and vision for cloud standardization and federation.
Myth: The cloud is too complex.
Truth: Again, there are different types of clouds that have differing levels of complexity. Many clouds simplify management and involve little to no change in your application to move it to the cloud. Other clouds offer more power and control, but involve a change in application architecture. Simplicity and control are often at odds and the cloud is no different. Depending on your needs, the cloud can offer you a good balance.
Myth: Pay as you go cloud pricing will cost me more.
Truth: Cloud computing has huge economies of scale that get passed on to the consumer. In addition, cloud computing transfers what is typically CapEx (large upfront expenditures) into OpEx (ongoing operational costs) and enables pricing to be commensurate with usage. If pricing variability and budgeting are a concern, consider a pricing plan that offers a predictable price. Also, don't just look at raw cost. Generally, best value solutions are superior to lowest cost. Consider all the factors including support, customer service, reputation, reliability, etc. when measuring value.
Myth: The cloud is hard to integrate with existing systems.
Truth: Many applications are stand-alone and can be moved independent of other existing systems. For integrated applications that are service oriented, integration is relatively simple. For non-service oriented applications that require tight integration, hybrid solutions (see Truth #10) are designed to simplify integration with the cloud. As with all integration considerations, latency is likely a concern, so transparency about where your cloud application lives is important.
Myth: The cloud is not for enterprises.
Truth: The benefits of cloud computing apply equally to enterprises as they do to SMBs, startups and consumers. Since enterprises are typically more risk averse, new technologies are generally adopted by small business first. That said, overall cloud adoption rates are increasing substantially and we are seeing enterprise adoption today. Expect to see a significant inflection point in the next several years where cloud is a standard enterprise fixture (see Truth #1).
Myth: I should move everything to the cloud.
Truth: Not all applications are suitable for cloud computing. While the Cloud is here to stay, it will not replace traditional hosting or on-premise deployments, but rather complement them. There will always be situations where security requirements, flexibility, performance or control will preclude the cloud. In those cases, a hybrid solution involving both cloud and either traditionally hosted or on-premise servers may make sense. Beware of vendors who promote pure cloud for ALL applications. Instead, look for a cloud provider who can offer you hosting options that best fit your application needs. Also, if you are a Managed Hosting customer, recognize that today, the cloud is "unmanaged," meaning the onus for backups, patching, monitoring, etc. is back on you should you move to the Cloud. If management services are important to you (and they probably are if you are already a Managed Hosting customer), consider the ramifications of a move to the cloud and look for a cloud provider that will provide the level of support and service necessary for you to be successful.
