My research at Gartner

by David M. Smith  |  March 23, 2009  |  Comments Off

Those of you reading this blog may be interested in what I am working on for Gartner clients. The following is a good place to start (Many are group efforts.):

Recent Cloud Computing research:

  • Cloud Computing Services: A Model for Categorizing and Characterizing Capabilities Delivered From the Cloud
  • Key Attributes Distinguish Cloud Computing Services
  • Global Class: The Inspiration for Cloud Computing
  • Contrasting Perspectives on Cloud Computing
  • Predicts 2009: Cloud Computing Beckons
  • Microsoft’s Cloud Vision Reaches for the Stars but Is Grounded in Reality
  • SAP Buys Coghead Assets, Gains Cloud Opportunities

Recent Web research:

  • IE6 Apps are Windows XP Apps, So Treat Them That Way in Migration Planning
  • Chrome Is a Strategic Product for Google
  • Using the Web to Improve the Customer Experience
  • Cool Vendors in Web Technologies

What I’m planning for this year:

  • Key Issues for Cloud Computing, 2009
  • Key Issues for Web 2.0 and Beyond, 2009
  • Key Issues for the Consumerization of IT, 2009
