The SoMoClo Age

The cloud is in the center of an emerging computing paradigm. According to a blog in research company Aberdeen Group, analysts focusing on Telecom and Unified Communications, Wireless and Mobility Communications, and IT Infrastructure Research said they have been watching the trend for several years. In the blog, they have observed the rapid increase of cores on processors, the doubling of data that organizations store and the use of mobile computing devices has enabled people to work anytime,anywhere. Bottomline is their observation of the convergence of social, mobile and cloud computing, which they termed, SoMoClo. According to researchers, cloud is the center on which the applications and IT computing infrastructure are based wherein:

• Mobile – is used for data creation and delivery
• Social – is the language and web of threads that connect users

A report in Aberdeen thoroughly examines the organic creation of SoMoClo and the role that the cloud will play in the future. Find out more about this new convergence, visit the site to view the SoMoClo diagram and access the report.
