Article: A cloudy look forward at 2011
A bunch of us in the cloud computing business here at CA Technologies put our heads together to see if we could articulate what we thought some of the big trends were going to be in cloud for 2011. It was a long and interesting list, as you might expect. So, I cherry-picked a handful of key ideas from that list for this post. Don't consider this a set of broad, all-knowing pronouncements, but instead think of this as some concepts that are getting traction - ones that I believe we'll want to watch as we start the new year. Let me know if you agree, disagree, or have something even better to add.


Article: Survey points to the rise of ‘cloud thinking'
In any developing market, doing a survey is always a bit of a roll of the dice. Sometimes the results can be pretty different from what you expected to find. I know a surprise like that sounds unlikely in the realm of cloud computing, a topic that, if anything, feels over-scrutinized. However, when the results came back from the Management Insight survey (that CA Technologies sponsored and announced today), there were a few things that took me and others looking at the data by surprise.
