Telstra and Accenture have set up a joint cloud computing innovation lab in Melbourne to develop cloud computing products for customers in Australia and New Zealand. The initiative is part of the cloud computing alliance between Telstra Enterprise and Government and Accenture, signed in April 2010 but announced only in October that year. It also fits within Telstra's announcement earlier this year of plans to invest $800m in cloud computing in the next five years. Telstra CTO, Hugh Bradlow, said: "One of the things we have been looking at as part of our $880m investment in cloud is how we can deliver a more complete set of cloud services with new innovations and the sort of capabilities organisations will need to migrate to the cloud. Today's announcement is a logical extension of that goal.
