Ismael Defines Cloud Computing for Business Users

October 13th, 2009 by Scott Francis

Ismael has a pretty good summary of cloud computing from the “business point of view” – which is to say, it largely avoids making a sales pitch on technical grounds, and simply makes a pitch on business terms -

  • Utility Pricing
  • Elastic Resource Capacity
  • Virtualized Resources
  • Management Automation
  • Self-Service Provisioning
  • Third-Party Ownership
  • Managed Operations

Good stuff. check out Ismael’s post for all the details.  This makes me want to dig up a 7 elements of BPMS value.  I’m sure someone has already codified that quite nicely.
