But is Virtualization a Cloud?
8
“If you think a private cloud is just another name for
virtualization automation, think again. The business sees
value from cloud services that deliver agility, autonomy, and
pay-per-use economics. If your private cloud doesn’t deliver
this, the business will look elsewhere to get this value, even
going so far as to build its own.”
James Staten and Lauren E. Nelson
