Getting the Nod-
Dreamforce/Cloudstock
I was extremely lucky to attend Dreamforce and Cloudstock in December and was excited to see all the multi-cloud love. In the keynote given at Dreamforce, Salesforce announced a few new multi cloud offerings; database.com, VMforce, Heroku, and they gave the nod to Amazon Web Services with a live demo. In the demo they had an ec2 box running PHP, talking to database.com. It was also obvious at Cloud stock that multi-cloud was all over, Engine Yard was in the house, Jeff Barr from Amazon was in the house, Cloud Kick in the house, Google in the house, mogoDB, Twilio, VMware and so many more, check it out – http://www.cloudstockevent.com/sessions.
This was really interesting to see that the leader in cloud/SAAS letting the world see who it’s endorsing.

Oracle
Oracle gets it. Once again Larry and team give AWS the nod release the following applications as AMIs for use with EC2:
- Oracle PeopleSoft CRM 9.1 PeopleTools
- Oracle PeopleSoft CRM 9.1 Database
- Oracle PeopleSoft ELM 9.1 PeopleTools
- Oracle PeopleSoft ELM 9.1 Database
- Oracle PeopleSoft FSCM 9.1 PeopleTools
- Oracle PeopleSoft FSCM 9.1 Database
- Oracle PeopleSoft PS 9.1 PeopleTools
- Oracle PeopleSoft PS 9.1 Database
- Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.3 App Tier
- Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.1.3-DB
- JD Edwards Enterprise One – ORCLVMDB
- JD Edwards Enterprise One – ORCLVMHTML
- JD Edwards Enterprise One – ORCLVMENT
Believe it or not you can use your existing Oracle licenses at no additional license cost or you can acquire new licenses from Oracle.
So in the end of 2010 we see Salesforce and Oracle give the nod to AWS. All I can say is buckle up because 2011 is going to be moving, who is next?
