Gold, Silver or just Fluff--what's in store for the Cloud?
A lot of companies are attempting to hitch their wagons to a star these days with a long layover in the Clouds. Big companies like Sun, IBM, HP, Cisco, Amazon, Google, VMware and Citrix are making major financial investments in Cloud culture. Are they chasing rainbows or will they find gold in the silver lining?
I think there's a good possibility that they will find gold--now the question is, how much will they find.
Quoting:Finally, when these big companies realize that their profit margins still aren't large enough to produce the big bonuses they want, they'll scuttle the service and leave the empty shell behind--much like the mortgage business is now.
Cloud computing is poised to become the next "bubble" market with lots of hype, billions invested, maximum leverage and speculation and then the cloud burst.
I think this adequately sums up the long term cloud projections.
