Group: Cloud Computing, VMware, Virtualization and Enterprise 2.0 Group Discussion: How do you explain cloud computing to your colleagues? Use the example of electricity. Long ago firms that needed electricity produced it themselves, owning the generators and employing those who ran and maintained them. Then came a "pay" as you go" use via electric companies and all of the hardware and those who supported it were "outsourced" and this is parallel to IT Hardware and those that support it for an on premise solution. The Cloud and SaaS based applicatoins create a "pay as you go" IT consumption model in much the same way. Much more can be learned at the free Cloud Computing and SaaS resource center at http://www.proformative.com/topic/cloud-computing-saas Posted by Ernie Humphrey
