I'm writing from the RIPE NCC meeting in Lisbon having just come out of an IPV6 update session given by Alex Band.

Businesses are being urgen to take action with regards to IPV6 as soon as possible. It is estimated that the IPV4 address space will be depleted within the next three years, that's to say only IPV6 addresses can be allocated thereafter.

At present 10% of the IPV4 address space is remaining and getting an IPV4 allocation is becoming increasingly difficult as the remaining IPV4 subset decreases.

First support for IPv6 in cloud computing allows users to seamlessly use native IPv6 to connect applications between datacenters

With the recent introduction of Gladinet Cloud Desktop version 1.2, Gladinet has introduced the ability to create an automatic backup of your Google Docs files to a redundant array of cloud storage. This feature allows you to specify a Google Docs source account, a cloud storage target, and a monitoring interval. You can also specify whether you want to use a designated folder or backup all files. If you choose to use a drop box, any files moved to it will automatically get backed up to Amazon S3, EMC Atmos, Box.net, or whichever service you select.

Do you face these business issues:-
• Are you paying too much for your current workflow or scheduling software?
• You’re locked into a rigid licensing model that is hindering your growth or flexibility?
• Does your current solution support new technologies and operating models like Cloud Computing, SAAS, PAAS or Workflow as a Service (WAAS)?
• Has your current software got bloated with CPU hungry agents, fat clients to deploy, painful upgrade paths and is it built on last century’s technology?
• Does your current solution need an army of IT staff to administer?

Amazon introduces Virtual Private Clouds (VPC) and with that stroke, completely legitimizes private clouds.

See www.aws.amazon.com/vpc/ for the announcement.

OpsWise Automation Center is well postioned to integrate with the Cloud environment, either public or private. Private clouds are more compelling to organisations with sensitive private data such as Financial Services, health care and government departments.

Paul Graham, one of my favourite dispensers of wisdom, argues that the arrival of web based software has changed not just the user experience, but the developer experience as well.

One of the most important changes in this new world is the way you do releases. In the desktop software business, doing a release is a huge trauma, in which the whole company sweats and strains to push out a single, giant piece of code. Obvious comparisons suggest themselves, both to the process and the resulting product. - "The Other Road Ahead", Paul Graham

Which is exactly right. Working in the cloud you rarely make a software release in the old sense of the word. Despite the benefits I must admit I actually somewhat miss the "big push" where, usually with a great deal of trepidation, you roll out a new improved version of a piece of software.

So it's was with a certain sense of nostalgia, about the days before web applications started killing off the desktop, that a just a couple of months ago I announced the release of my first iPhone application onto the App Store...
