Cloud Wars





Cloud Wars are upon us.
We had no choice and no one really asked us whether we want them.
They came to bind us all.
Those who live with their heads in the clouds and feet on the ground will survive.
Those who don't won't. It is irrelevant what you think or do.
Very few people are really think and know what is really going.
The Developer as it was and is now will disappear. You can develop whatever you want and eventually it will be offered as a Service by them. You too small and no one can see you.
They will swallow everything and everyone. The idea is very neat and smart.
If you hold the 'Shift' key and type number 4 it will give you an answer - $.
Yes it is 4 big Cloud providers out there: Microsoft, Oracle, Amazon and Google (MOAG)
Everything will run in the Cloud (MOAG). Even if you crazy talented and develop something outstanding and use MOAG to run your next big thing eventually they will swallow you.
Think Netflix on Amazon. Netflix was a king until Amazon created its own Netflix and called it Amazon Prime. You can innovate like crazy and think you can outsmart them.
Think again. Whatever you invent will end up in the Cloud sooner or later.
One Cloud to rule them all and in the Darkness bind them :)
They will have visibility into everything what is running on their Clouds by other companies.
Retail, Engineering, Genetic Research etc. etc.  and you can't hide. Anything worth copying and re-engineering will be. Its a free market. By the time you find out about something they will already forget about it. You never in front and always behind.
Enough said. The future is bright.

Fight for the Light within

Finally I understand. Or it seems that I do. There is no Attainment. My whole approach to life around me was and is wrong. The energies around me is not be controlled, they are to be adapted to and allowed to freely pass without interferring. John Lennon sang about it in his 'Fool on the Hill'. But his main theme was somewhat passive and reflective - 'See the world going round'. The true mastery is when you are riding the never ending 'merry-go-round' of life energies like a surfer - using high waves to propel you forward to the shore of your goals and destiny.  Inevitably will be the times when I will fall and will have to climb back on my board and attempt to catch the next wave.  Will be the times when I will be scared by the magnitude of the wave coming towards me and possibly the sharks swimming nearby.  I will see other people drowning and not reaching the shore and shouting to me: 'Its hopeless we will all drown'. Will be times...

Bees and Honey

"Another challenge is that identity data is typically decentralized . The Department of Motor Vehicles issues drivers licenses, for example, while the Department of Homeland Security issues passports, banks track financial histories, and so on. Most of these organizations have isolated and centralized identity management systems, but the current landscape demands federation and single sign-on (SSO). This makes identity management, protection and verification very cumbersome, costly and risky for all industry enterprises and government agencies." Jai Singh Arun - Security and Blockchain Innovations Program Director, IBM Identity architectural landscape is changing and personally I can only think of this very simple analogy between identities and blockchain. Identities to the blockchain are what the bees are to the honey. . This is as simple as even your grandma would understand :) Bees (identities) all day collect honey somewhere in the fields. Coming back to thei...

Future of IDAM

"Many of the technical choices we’re about to make will be strikingly political.   Who has access to what data?  Where is the line between human choice and machine intelligence? Why is one computer architecture better than another? These decisions—and the people who make them —will determine power’s new aspects ." "The Seventh Sense: Power, Fortune, and Survival in the Age of Networks" I was mesmerised when I read this. Started to frantically search the author name - Joshua Cooper Ramo.  No he is not an IDAM Architect. The book is not even about IDAM.  But it cuts to the core of what I do for my living and many many others as well. What a powerful thought:   Identity will be at the heart of power structures of the future. Hold it for a moment .    What about me? What about my identity? Those are all valid questions to ask in this context. Unwind to Sep 19 2016 when my friend Steve jokingly asked me: "where is your blog? where is your ...
