MicroStrategy Cloud - Myths, Misconceptions & Misunderstandings
• Security is always the number 1 question...
– Cloud operations are typically more secure than enterprise data centres.
– Public clouds like AWS, Rackspace signed up to best practice / standards.
– Cloud 24/7 availability – inherently leads to a more consistent approach to
security than might apply in a enterprise data centre
– ‘Obvious’ targets demand the best and highest standards.
• Resilience (Performance, Failover) may be intermittent.
– For all the same reasons as above, Cloud providers very existence as a
business commands the best of everything in this regard.
– Don’t blame your comms (e.g. public internet) for poor cloud performance.
• A Cloud is a Cloud so I can buy the cheapest...
– No! Each provider will be optimised for a particular offering
• Compute and storage (IaaS)
• Basic business apps (Office 365)
• Premier Business Applications (MSTR Cloud platform)
• The ability to architect your cloud for your requirement is very powerful thing.

MicroStrategy Cloud - Myths, Misconceptions & Misunderstandings
• Everything in the cloud will run 100x faster and better!
– No, particularly legacy custom applications.
– Most new business requirements will perform equally as well or better in the
cloud, as in a enterprise data centre if architected correctly.
• Everyone else can see my data in the Cloud!
– Firstly, MSTR Cloud is not multi-tenanted so no issue there, but...
– There is not one documented public breach within a VM multi-tenanted
environment of this actually happening!
• Cloud is actually more expensive by my calculations?
– Eg for £150 per user per month I can buy the software and support it for less?
• Missing the point, A cloud subscription covers TOTAL system costs.
24
MicroStrategy Cloud - Myths, Misconceptions & Misunderstandings
• Cloud costs jobs and that’s a tough sell...
– There could be a loss of traditional IT system level jobs.
– IT is constantly evolving, in the example presented many more new skills will be
required to support the business and app users.
• Cloud is new, in it’s infancy.
– AWS was launched in 2006
– MSTR Cloud launched over 2 years ago, took almost 2 years to plan and build.
– Area od constant innovation and improvement as a core technology.
– Users adopting Cloud offerings now will reap longer term benefits.
• The huge cloud datacentres being built are not very ‘green’
– Some corporates are working hard to meet green targets and have actually
raised this with us.
– As computing power increases cpu and infrastructure does tend to become
more power efficient, it’s just that we do more with it, leading to growth in
requirements.
– Mobility / apps is a case in point. This growth (and others) will not stop.
