It's amazing how much attention Cloud Computing is receiving. I was just at a data center conference in New York City the end of last week and Cloud was the topic of almost every session.

I caught an article during my travels in August referencing the World Bank Global Antidumping Database . The numbers quoted showed an increase in new protectionist practices of 31% in the first half of 2009 relative to the first half of 2008. During our current economic challenges it is easy to focus...

In a recent article in Computerworld there was a discussion of the phenomenon of cloud computing expanding uncontrollably in an enterprise. Cloud was compared to the client/server and departmental computing shift that took place in the late 80s and 90s. I agree that this is a concern, but as presented...
