6. On Cloud Computing "It's stupidity. It's worse than stupidity: it's a marketing hype campaign. Somebody is saying this is inevitable--and whenever you hear somebody saying that, it‘s very likely to be a set of businesses campaigning to make it true.” - Richard Stallman, Father of the Free Software Movement
7. “ The interesting thing about cloud computing is that we’ve redefined cloud computing to include everything that we already do... The computer industry is the only industry that is more fashion-driven than women’s fashion. .. It’s complete gibberish. It’s insane. When is this idiocy going to stop? - Larry Ellison, CEO Oracle, Sep 2008

9. Benefits of Cloud Computing Source: IBSG, 2009 Source: IBSG 2009 BENEFIT COMMENT Cost Savings Organizations can reduce or eliminate IT capital expenditures and reduce ongoing operating expenditures by paying only for the services they use and, potentially, by reducing the size of their IT staffs. Ease of Implementation Without the need to purchase hardware, software licenses, or implementation services, an organization can implement cloud computing rapidly. Flexibility Cloud computing offers more flexibility (often called “elasticity”) in matching IT resources to business functions than past computing methods. It can also increase mobility of staff by allowing them to access business information and applications from a wider range of locations and/or devices. Scalability Organizations using cloud computing need not scramble to secure additional hardware and software when user loads increase, but can instead add and subtract capacity as the network load dictates. Access to Top-End IT Capabilities Particularly for smaller organizations, cloud computing can allow access to hardware, software, and IT staff of a caliber far beyond that which they can attract and/or afford for themselves. Redeployment of IT Staff By reducing or doing away with constant server updates and other computing issues, and eliminating expenditures of time and money on application development, organizations may be able to concentrate at least some of their IT staff on higher-value tasks. Focusing on Core Competencies Arguably, the ability to run data centers and to develop and manage software applications is not necessarily a core competency of most organizations. Cloud computing may make it much easier to reduce or shed these functions, allowing organizations to concentrate their efforts on issues central to their business such as (in government) the development of policy and design and delivery of public services. Sustainability The poor energy efficiency of most existing data centers, due to substandard design or inefficient asset utilization, is now understood to be environmentally and economically unsustainable. Cloud service providers, through leveraging economies of scale and their capacity to managing computing assets more efficiently, can consume far less energy and other resources than traditional data center operators.
