[Hack In The Box]Watch out for fake clouds: Melbourne IT

Melbourne IT CTO Glenn Gore has warned that there are some vendors operating in Australia sporting the cloud badge without actually offering cloud. "There's a lot of hype around competitors who have simply gone out and bought a technology stack and are now going out to customers and saying, just because [they] have a service platform with some software running on top, [they're] a cloud provider," he said. Many didn't have billing systems or customer management, or the operational expertise and processes to be able to pull off a "truly multi-tenanted" environment, according to Gore. Melbourne IT has done a lot of work and training to get to the level it is at, he said.
