If you’re to believe the hype, you’re already behind the curve if your organization is not actively deploying apps on the cloud. At the recent VMworld tradeshow sponsored by VMware, the theme of the show and its numerous sessions was cloud computing. Many presentations and vendors took the curious position that the leap from virtualization to the cloud is a small one. And vendors that did not exist 18 months ago were holding forth on the benefits and challenges of cloud computing. I haven’t seen this much hype about a technology that enables you to do what you’re already doing since the days when SaaS was the new hot thing.
