So some companies have made so much noise about Cloud computing I was recently forced to think back......
In 2005 i was involved in a project that developed a software for an airline....the software runs from our servers even upto this day and the company only pays a monthly fee for use of the software.....did we miss the word Cloud computing then?
In 2001 when we installed SMS on tv (yes, the Big Question is that old), we actually had the entire system running from our servers and not KTN.....(yeah, now you know why the Arturs Bros didnt find it!)!
I must credit KDN and Swift for having the infrastructure we used for then!
Am sure similar scenarios existed in Kenya from other local developers.
Does this mean Kenya had Cloud computing 10 years ago? - Do you see what issue i have with our ICT Board and our lack of speed in adopting new technologies?
This to me explains how we lost M-PESA to the UK or KIKOY to i dont know who....
Tafakari hayo....
