Cloud computing promises
lower upfront costs, greater
business agility, and a reduced
burden on internal IT
management. Therefore, large
enterprises are now adding
hybrid cloud-based solutions to
their existing IT services. But
before CIOs can fully leverage
the benefits of cloud
technologies, they need to
understand the organizational
impacts of this move.

testing performed.
