Rough Type: Nicholas Carr’s Blog: Openness Is Not Enough

October 31, 2008 by Greg Ferro · Leave a Comment 

Nick Carr is so clever:

“But in this early stage of the cloud’s devel­op­ment, open­ness means little to the buyer (or user). The buy­ers, par­tic­u­larly those in big com­pan­ies, are nervous about the cloud even as they are becom­ing increas­ingly eager to reap the bene­fits the cloud can provide. What they care about right now is secur­ity, reli­ab­il­ity, fea­tures, com­pat­ib­il­ity with their exist­ing sys­tems and applic­a­tions, ease of adop­tion, sta­bil­ity of the vendor, and other prac­tical con­cerns. ”

Oh, OK. Did he miss any­thing ? In other words cloud com­put­ing is NOT meet­ing any of the the MINIMUM require­ments for companies.

Not much to worry about then. Cloud Computing is already here ? What a load of tosh.

Cloud com­put­ing is much,much fur­ther away than any­one thinks.
