What is the COC Contest
The Cloud Computing race
The COC Contest is a technological challenge where cloud computing technology providers join to demonstrate their latest advancements in cloud computing.
Why the COC Contest
20 years of cloud computing call for C.H.A.N.G.E.S.
It’s been more than 20 years that Wired magazine conceptualized the Cloud Computing and more than 10 years than Amazon released its iconic Elastic Compute Cloud offer.
Since then, a very small number of major players have emerged, limiting the choice of most cloud users to a very short list of providers and technologies.
Meanwhile, new eras in application calculation possibilities emerged: big data real-time analysis and artificial intelligence are the most promising of them.
However much more can be done to improve performance and affordability in this space.
The COC Contest therefore calls for C.H.A.N.G.E.S. in this industry and provides the platform for players to evaluate and demonstrate their innovations:
C.H.A.N.G.E.S. as in :
C ost-effectiveness for users
H ope of scalability for startup users
A pplications for all businesses
N ew era to AI, big data
G rowth enabled seamlessly by design
E ntrepreneurship opportunities for providers
