Yes there are benefits to cloud computing, but what happens when your entire IT infrastructure is no longer under your control? (Cloud has ‘no relevance’ say three-quarters of IT managers).
What happens when the provider starts jacking the rates...and you know they will. How will your “agility” and “adaptability” play out then? Think of the fun you’ll have moving your infrastructure to a new cloud provider.
It’s all just another ruse to wrest control over your IT resources and stiff you with a fat bill.
To those that bash their internal IT services, they have no idea what is involved in running an operation, and those problems and inefficiencies will not be removed by simply sticking your head in the clouds.
