Editor's Notes
- The very concept of what a campaign actually IS is changing. We’ll talk about some trends where the cloud has relevance, and some actual client work across a range of initiative types.
- In the last few years, we have seen an explosive growth in the use of the public cloud. While most of the initial adoption was seen by startups and smaller orgs, most of the new growth will come from larger organizations adopting the public cloud. Now you might ask what’s causing cloud adoption at such a fierce rate. There are 3 fundamentals business drivers at play here: SPEED: With minutes instead of days/weeks to procure & provision servers, the pace of innovation has dramatically increased. Reduced ‘time to develop’ & ‘time to market’ means your IT can be much more agile in servicing needs of the business units or developers. Embrace & Enable Innovation. Help your business move forward against the competition. In fact, it is the speed and agility that IT hasn’t been able to provide has resulted in what many call “Shadow IT” where business units are resorting to using credit cards to procure computing resources outside of the purview of the IT. SCALE: Cloud gives you an almost infinite set of computing resources. Your applications will enjoy massive global scale, and can easily scale up or down depending on the demand. That means, you never have to worry about running out of capacity or worry about overprovisioning. You use just enough resources for your needs - nothing more, nothing less. ECONOMICS: And of course, you’re paying only for what you use in the Cloud. This in itself saves you money for any app that has variable computing needs. For some organizations, there is also an additional benefit of changing CapEX to OpEX, which frees up capital from infrastructure investments so it can be put to other uses.

- Consumers are fragmented and spread over un-related digital touch-points. Nothing builds upon a bigger picture. Creating a single profile of the consumer of our experiences across all channels is the approach that should be taken.

- visualized business intelligence “Half is wasted—but which half…” GEOflow This is literally the death of “smoke and mirrors” that is happening… Massive amounts of data, needing to be accessed and used to make strategic and tactical marketing devisions in real-time whether by people or by algorithms.
- A mobile and Web-powered service developed whole cloth by Infusion for Metlife, Infinity enables anyone to capture and share important memories now or at a pre-determined future date across iOS or Android devices. This free app captures pictures, videos, notes, and critical documents and allows one to pass them on to the people that matter the most. Software, data management have become just as important as “art and copy”, in some cases more so.

- I have not purchased a new CD in 2 years now. I would have spent about $1200.00 on new music, about 50.00 per month. I have spent $240.00 with Spotify instead.

- The hosting and management of applications and services on the Internet through data centers. We now have “ever-access” for our data as consumers and as businesses. Gartner predicts that the bulk of new IT spending by 2016 will be for cloud computing platforms and applications with nearly half of large enterprises having cloud deployments by the end of 2017. “This extra gigabyte of media storage is brought to you by PopTarts, or CNN, or GE.”
- Simplified IT: relatively plug and play without the TCO and infrastructure logistics. Reduce costs: Gameizon as a start-up—and we’re all startups today—saved up to 40% than going the traditional IT route. Scalability: to address the unpredictable nature of today’s programs such as viral content and social media. Speed: up to a 30% faster program deployment. Own your own data: rather than giving your data to facebook or youtube you can host and manage your own programs and reap those benefits.
