1) Cloud computing has become widespread and is increasingly being used with mobile and big data technologies. It allows for proactive system updates but also means users must develop integration environments. 2) To fully utilize cloud computing, businesses need to design solutions that meet all performance and feature needs through choice and customization. This requires a "grand design" approach to integration that uses cloud technologies. 3) Multiple cloud services can be integrated and configured to create innovative customer service solutions, demonstrating how cloud services enable new opportunities through integration.

- 2. Now cloud goes beyond own/not own… In these days… Cloud computing becomes widespread Especially, it has been used in “ Mobile × Cloud → Big Data ” Reality; one of the characteristic features of cloud computing is “proactive updating” →merit and demerit of rapid growing speed →Provider has the right to decide the system update – when, what.. Reality; Cloud service is totally different from BPO →User side has to develop “the use environment” - “Integration” →Important; Transparency and openness (API) “High connectivity” Latest with cloud computing… “create a solution that meets all performance and feature requirements of the business” “Choice & Customize” to use cloud → “Grand-Design and Integration” 「Cloud 2.0」 Egenera Executive round table 1 ©2012 SapporoSparkle kk
- 3. Realize the best system that meets your business Strengths and Vision with using cloud computing Enterprise IT Today; 『Change from system perspective to use perspective』 →Cloud computing supports this change “how to utilize it” →Realize a system that meets what your business directed with the condition required. →Cloud computing fills the requirements and the conditions “trigger of solution” →Configure and Integrate cloud services with others *Different from ASP “Hybrid cloud and on-premise, Configure some specialized systems, and Integrate” Innovation Cloud service A Cloud service A System that meets business Vision Existing service A Cloud system On-premise Grand-design with Business perspective Customer perspective External service A Cloud service Collaboration, BPO Integration Egenera Executive round table 2 ©2012 SapporoSparkle kk

Customer service with multiple cloud service Message etc. Location information E-manual Go the round Photo site Map information CRM CRM GPS Contact Field center service Request GPS Estimation etc. Service Customer order ID Composite contract application system Please come immediately! Customer Customer Customer Customer service rep situation Screen service rep Correspondence CRM Customer information Assignment Conversation Heading to site Conversation Operating Emergency Inquiry from family member CTI report response Inquiry made at later date Operator Customer can use cloud services and mobile applications → innovation. more convenient and user-friendly!

- 5. Diversification of cloud services Background of “Choice and Customiz” → Cloud services are available in multiple fields, units and layers → more and more seamless IaaS, PaaS and SaaS… → There also make the own system to cloud services and share… ＜diversification… one view of classification…＞ Let’s see some examples! 1. Integrated services such as enterprise cloud service 2. Specific and specialized service 3. Providing advanced knowledge and technology through the services 4. Services that support and improve the system lifecycle 5. Services that becomes(and links with) social platform * Utilization from can be both “continual” and “temporary/particular point” ☆ Imagination that finds service is important! ☆ Grand-design, configuration and integration Egenera Executive round table 4 ©2012 SapporoSparkle kk
- 16. Change in enterprise IT – making the maximum use of cloud computing 1. Integration and convergence between business and IT. Enterprise system much closely related to business - Flexible with individualization, customization and verification (standard core and original extension) - Also one more area, “Computer convergence” product and service – Business IT 2. System with outward-looking related partners and community- industry, society etc. and system connected with externals. - Services for customers, cooperation with external units and social infrastructure, globalization. - Primarily, business and system well suited to cloud computing has been increasing. 3. System flexible with variations and changes. - Rapid response to unexpected demand fluctuation and sudden increase in processing. - Quick start from small business and expanding it afterwards. 4. “Time to Value”. Today, speed is the greatest strength. - Realize the system in a short period of time. Turning a trying into triumph. 5. Obtain knowledge, experience and skills through cloud computing technologies. - Get the specific skill through the services, that your business would have required but never had. - Make it possible to use continuously the resource and the technology. - proto-type, pilot, real use, and the quick expansion. Also for small company and some project… Egenera Executive round table 15 ©2012 SapporoSparkle kk
- 17. System integration with cloud computing – it has been practical already, it is the timing System integration with cloud based services. It becomes more practical. Using for cloud computing has become diversified. For example… - integration; real-time data-warehouse centric, configured ERP and some specialized applications of cloud services - integration; using cloud service for the big data and high level data analysis - Approach; using cloud computing in prototype development / review phase <Background> Merits of cloud computing “beyond the assets and ownership story” • Fundamental characteristic and value, especially for management, of cloud computing • Reducing the burden of IT infrastructure with cloud computing technology • Making the best use of the merits of cloud computing (information sharing and ubiquitous computing etc.) “Can not do without cloud” • Obtaining advanced technology and IT know-how through cloud computing. • Utilizing “the connection that is one of the best aspect of cloud computing”… Egenera Executive round table 16 ©2012 SapporoSparkle kk
- 18. Trend around cloud computing… structural change Differences in system lifecycle Cloud era Differences in grand design Differences in values(use perspective, relationship between business and IT) The changes are made not only by cloud computing Convergence Integration of Changes in business and IT cloud computing usage and system ① SOA ⑧ Information Composite application oriented process building common platform Real-time process ② Agile development ⑦ Consumerization Integrated prototyping ③ Open source ⑥ Social media Co-development ④ Mobile Information sharing Open innovation Connected-device ⑤ Big data • Device Open data And more and more… • Environment multi types of data Egenera Executive round table • AppStore ©2012 SapporoSparkle kk 17
- 19. One other aspect… things that increases the need to use cloud computing Beyond the framework of enterprise IT… Cloud computing speeds up the changes. “New stage of enterprise IT” 1. Cloud technology supports start-ups → low cost, stable and expandability - Cloud computing makes start-up cost and resource much lower, just need originality and idea - Also start-ups can start cloud services without much invest as on-premise era - Collaboration between leading company and start-up, start-up can leads the scheme - Many of companies select the cloud services which developed and hosted by the start-ups - Purely focused “Knowledge and ideas”, “original technology”….”design and produce power” 2. Trend of globalization → without boundary both for business and IT - Cloud computing is the first choice for globalization, global service or domestic specialised service - You can choose and apply cloud services from all over the world. And “choice and customize” 3. CMO and CDO who is responsible for IT application as convergence - Cloud computing becomes powerful tool and partner for them. “visible, full of idea, Immediately realization” “gaining partners, sharing experience”…. 4. Require the new approach, Showing ideas and design. “Demo, or Die” - Changes in approach of system development and innovation. *It can be affected to open sources. 5. “disruptive revolution / model ” → cloud technology can be a good weapon - Breaking down conventional boundaries and traditions to create new method.
