In The Know: Top 5 Must-Read Cloud Stories, April 1

  • Written by CJ Arlotta
  • April 1, 2015
At the end of each day, Talkin' Cloud pulls out five must-read cloud computing stories from the news cycle for its readers to review in the morning. Today's column features Rackspace, IBM and Acronis.

Talkin’ Cloud at the end of each day pulls out five must-read cloud computing stories from the news cycle for its readers to review in the morning. Today’s column features Rackspace (RAX), IBM (IBM) and Acronis.

Some of these stories have been gathered from Talkin’ Cloud’s article database, while others have been collected from elsewhere. If we missed something, feel free to leave a comment below. We might just add it into the mix.

Here’s today’s list of must-read cloud computing stories.

Cloud Computing: What MSPs Must Consider To Grow Their Business, Part 1. Understanding how cloud computing can assist MSPs with growing their business is only the first step, but it’s a big one. Once MSPs realize how the cloud can reel in profit, the road to success becomes a lot smoother. Here are a couple things for MSPs to consider before growing their business with cloud.

TC 100 Profile: Rackspace Eyes ‘Fanatical Support’. Rackspace’s CTO says his company blends infrastructure with expertise to deliver “Fanatical Support,” and this is how the managed cloud hosting company plans to compete in the market in 2015. Here’s everything you need to know about Rackspace.

IBM Invests $3 Billion In IoT, Plans New Cloud Services. IBM announced it will invest $3 billion over the next four years to develop an Internet of Things (IoT) business. Pat Toole, an executive who has been with Big Blue for over three decades, will serve as general manager of the company’s IoT unit. In addition, IBM said it plans to create a cloud-based open platform to help customers and partners build IoT solutions.

Rising Demand For Cloud-Based Video Conferencing Services, Study Says. AT&T (T) has introduced several new features to its channel partner program to provide its resellers with new opportunities to profit in the telecom space. The additions were announced earlier this month in conjunction with the two-year anniversary of AT&T Partner Exchange, which was recently combined with AT&T Wholesale and ACC Business under the AT&T Partner Solutions moniker.

AT&T Enhances Partner Exchange, Creates Partner Solutions Organization. The results of a new study confirm that personal information is considered more important to users than the devices it is stored on. Acronis released the study in conjunction with World Backup Day, which exists to raise awareness about the importance of protecting personal data.
