Interviewed by Richard Morrell in his iTunes Podcast

I had the privilege of being interviewed by the cloud legend Richard Morrell also found in twitter as @EMEACloudGuy or in his great blog http://cloudevangelist.org.
I was part of one of his neat podcast series available in iTunes.

We covered the state of the cloud landscape with more emphasis in Platform-as-a-Service PaaS, with even narrower focus, obviously, on my product: OpenShift.

There is a lot exciting stuff going on in the Red Hat and OpenShift worlds these days, and I tried to share that excitement with the audience through concrete announcements, facts, releases, features, plans, and many other pretty interesting data points.

I hope you find it useful and enjoy it as much as I did. Here it is the link of the interview's audio:

Cloud, SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS Adoption Trends and Forecast

At this point it is clear that the term "Cloud" transcended the buzz word and is already the label of an attractive $100B+ market. Cloud Computing represents the top enterprise IT spending in 2015, even beyond other hot growing technologies like Mobile and IoT. Not just that, budgets for Cloud offerings may even double in 2016. And if we talk about the other two hot tech trends, it is not a surprise that about three quarters of the IoT and Mobile offerings have also a Cloud component. Let me share with you my own direct experiences and my interpretation of some key Cloud Computing statistics over the last few years as well as the trends for the next two or three. In every case contrasting the numbers with qualitative data points and insights. Let's then dissect the Cloud universe in the typical 3 tiers, starting from the bottom... Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) In 3 years IaaS will represent: ~35% of cloud use cases (compared with a ~65% of PaaS + SaaS)...

Wearables: The quest for the missing killer app?

I am a happy Fitbit user for more than a year and a half now, recently my family gave me a Samsung Gear S as a present, so at this point you can already subscribe me to the list of the ones who bought into the wearable computing promise, the Internet of Things (IoT), and the Internet of Everything (IoE). Source: Fitbit.com I use my Fitbit band almost all the time, I also use a very often its excellent smart phone app and the linked cloud service. I use the band/app/cloud trio mostly for everyday health tracking and casual sports. I believe that this device is a clear, simple, and pragmatic example of the the Internet of Things (IoT) potential. Fitbit has very active community of third party developers creating even more and specialized value for Fitbit product owners, check the list of cool and useful Fitbit apps in their Partnerships page. The FitBit's OTB mobile app is already a killer app, and many of the third party ones too, making the whole device + apps + service...

Informal Catalog of Business Models for Internet of Things (IoT)

This article mostly contains public knowledge, however seeing the data compiled all together in this way may help to rationalize it and apply it in a more rigorous way. I hope this express catalog helps others the same way it helps me. By running new hypothetical product concepts or existing offerings through these "filters" helps to understand their strengths and weaknesses. Which monetization models would you add to the following list? Selling IoT devices for end users I this case the device in itself delivers the key functional capabilities, with enough customer value to pay for its price tag. Many time these products leverage existing infrastructures such as Wi-Fi, a Smart Phone, etc. Even if this model centers around the IoT device, a software and/or cloud service may be necessary as a companion for a rounded UX. Software and/or services put more pressure on R&D and ongoing operational cost, and consequently in ...
