It seems like everywhere I go these days, people are talking about cloud computing… Would it be accurate to say that almost everyone are “fairly optimistic” regarding Cloud Computing?
For your convenient, I have collected few cloud-buzz-quotes to spice your cloud computing elevator pitch:
- According to Gartner: “Cloud computing heralds an evolution of business that is no less influential than e-business”
- IDC on Cloud Computing: “This is about the IT industry’s new model for the next 20 years“, Vernon Turner, head of enterprise infrastructure, consumer and telecoms research.
- Merrill Lynch estimates that by 2012, the annual global market for cloud computing will surge to $95 billion and that 12% of the worldwide software market would go to the cloud in that period.
- In January of 2008 Amazon announced that the Amazon Web Services now consume more bandwidth than do the entire global network of Amazon.com retail sites…
- “… the new computing cloud age” Eric Schmidt (April, 2008)
