Customer UpdateCloud computing is an evolution in thinking, technology, and the way we consume IT resources. There are no magic beans here, but some real opportunities now and in the future, particularly for enterprises that can’t afford big-ticket, in-house solutions.

Cloud ComputingSpending on IT cloud services will triple in the next 5 years, reaching $42 billion and capturing 25% of IT spending growth in 2012We predict that by 2012, 80 percent of Fortune 1000 enterprises will be paying for some cloud computing services, and 30 percent will be paying for cloud computing infrastructure services.By 2012, 20 percent of businesses will own no IT assets.
Cloud Computing“Cloud Computing is one of the most important transformations the federal government will go through in the next decade” - Vivek Kundra, CTO U.S. Federal Government
Cloud Computing“Cloud computing is really a no-brainer for any start-up because it allows you to test your business plan very quickly for little money. Every start-up, or even a division within a company that has an idea for something new, should be figuring out how to use cloud computing in its plan“ – Brad Jefferson, CEO Animoto

  • #10 The way we work is changing. Business-wide staff are increasingly dispersed.The internet gives us far more reach to do business in wider regions.As a result groups and teams no longer adhere to geographic organisation.Customers, suppliers and staff demand a more flexible schedule – 9 to 5 is fading.

  • #15 Who here has laptops?Who here has Practically everyone has a computer.Most of these are laptops.I can’t remember the last time I met someone who doesn’t own an iPhone or Blackberry.The increase in sophistication of technology we personally own is outpacing what businesses can cost effectively provide.Who has an iPad? The epitome of cloud computing
  • #16 Increased reliability – Most businesses have internet connections that are far more reliable than their internal systems.Increased reliance – without a web presence, without B2B communication, without internet access, without email, many businesses stop.40.7% believe the NBN will greatly enable their business' ability to leverage technology and improve productivity / customer satisfaction…IDC research.
  • #17 Technology a key differentiator – Technology is used as a competitive advantage in business in real and tangible ways. Attracting and retaining customers - FedEx tracking / Jim Barksdale as an example-increasing the flow of knowledge within the organisation-making more informed decisions.Speed and agility matters – The primary benefit of technology boils down to speed and agility. That is what new solutions strive to offer.
