Cloud computing services
Cloud computing has been one of the most talked about IT topics of recent years, and as the technology matures the cloud has become a serious option for all IT managers. There are a range of ways to approach the cloud, from public cloud to private clouds, through services such as software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service (PaaS) and infrastructure as a service (IaaS). We examine cloud computing services and the trends and technologies that matter to IT managers.

CW ASEAN: On-premise vs cloud creates storage balancing act
Storage is gradually moving to the cloud in ASEAN. According to Computer Weekly/TechTarget’s annual IT Priorities research, 40% of ASEAN-based IT decision makers are planning a cloud storage initiative in 2017 and 40% are planning a cloud backup initiative. To answer this growing demand for cloud storage, many new cloud players are setting up datacenters in the region. Southeast Asia’s cloud market is already teeming with all the big players – AWS, Microsoft, IBM, HP, Oracle – and a host of other providers of datacenter services and managed IT services, so how will newcomers, including Alibaba Cloud and Google, affect the cloud storage market? And what does this mean for the on-premise storage market? We speak to storage experts, analysts and suppliers to bring you an exclusive analysis of the fast-evolving storage market in the Southeast Asian region. Continue Reading

CW ANZ: CIOs set sights on cloud-based infrastructure
Cloud computing will play an increasingly important role in the datacentres of organisations in Australia and New Zealand this year, with cloud-based infrastructure topping the list of IT projects planned by CIOs, according to Computer Weekly/TechTarget research of ANZ-based IT decision makers. This is not lost on suppliers. For example, the cloud services arm of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba opened a datacentre in Sydney last year.

Self-driving cars are one of the most exciting developments in technology. Companies like Google and Tesla are pioneering the technology.

Despite significant regional spending on safety campaigns, the UAE still clocks up 12.7 road deaths per 100,000 people, with 30.4 in Oman, 24.8 in Saudi Arabia, 16.5 in Kuwait, 14 in Egypt and 13.2 in Qatar.
