The current IT environment is plagued with inefficiencies characterized by low asset utilization, a fragmented demand for resources, duplicative systems, unmanageable environments and long procurement lead times. Cloud computing has the potential to play a major part in addressing these inefficiencies and improving service delivery. But, Cloud is changing at the speed of light. Chief Technology Officers and Chief Information Officers say Public Cloud adoption presents serious business-limitations around: loss of control, security and data sovereignty, latency and cost.

When asked about the barriers and challenges faced to deliver internal Cloud services, CTOs and CIOs identify: project-risk and complexities due to a lack of standardisation, risk of vendor lock-in, lengthy lead times as well as a high capex.

When we asked George Cvetanovski (Founder and CEO of HyperScalers) on the state of the industry, He said "If Cloud-datacenters were like cars, each of us would be heavily reliant on a unique vehicle, providing us with insight into the root problems of custom, one-time engineered outcomes, be it from a build-quality and safety perspective, a performance and efficiency perspective or an economies of scale and cost savings perspective."

George continued "Information Technology's core problem, I'm talking about the problem of complexity is being solved simply through standardisation of best practices and through economies of scale. Conventional datacenter hardware cannot keep up with the growing density and large capacity requirements of datacenters that demand more efficient and simplified hardware design. The decision to partner with Quanta QCT- the world's largest Original Design Manufacturer (ODM), and world's largest provider of Open Compute Project (OCP)-compliant hardware was a no-brainer. QCT's pioneering ideas and engineering excellence help meet HyperScalers' and its channel-partners' and their clients' needs."

CIOs and CTOs, in their quest to find the economics and newfound user benefits of Cloud Computing essentially face three possible alternatives:

• 3rd party Public Cloud service providers;
• OEM (proprietary) Built Clouds - on premise or off-premise (Co-Lo); and
• OCP-compliant (propriatery-free) Built Clouds on-premise or off-premise (Co-Lo)

IT's Cloud-Path of Least Resistance = OCP Compliant (proprietry-free) Built Cloud(s). OEM (proprietary) built Clouds came in second followed by Public Cloud service providers.

The matrix's finding affirms CIOs' and CTOs' need and preference for delivering their internal customers and even their external customers, the full suite of Amazon-like Cloud services only under their full control and without the limitations of the Public Cloud model including: security and data-sovereignty, latency and cost.

The matrix also affirms CIOs' and CTOs' need and preference for delivering and operating standard Cloud capacity - vanity free of the expensive OEM brand-badges, free of the proprietary limitations and free of proprietary lock-ins.

About: Open Compute Project
OCP was started by Facebook three years ago with a pretty big goal: to build one of the most efficient computing infrastructures at the lowest possible cost. The result is a data center full of vanity free servers which is 38% more efficient and 24% less expensive to build and run than other state-of-the-art datacenters.
