Group: Cloud Computing, SaaS & Virtualization Discussion: How do you explain cloud computing to your colleagues? The Yankee Group defines Cloud Computing as follows: Scalable- The cloud service has the ability to add or remove computing resources including bandwidth, storage and computer power, as the applications or users need. Virtualized- Information services, including servers, storage and applications, are virtualized. The users are shielded from the details of the underlying architecture and work with virtual resources allocated to their enterprise or application. On-demand- The computing resources and applications can be allocated or removed within seconds of a user request. Internet-powered- The service is delivered over IP and is accessible via the Internet or a private IP connection. Posted by Gary Coben
