What Kundra forgets to mention is that we already tried Cloud Computing in the age of the mainframe. Cloud computing is a return to centralized computing writ large. With better technology perhaps, but the idea is the same.
Now that may very well be cost-effective if reliability and security count for nothing.
In case they do count for something, then cloud computing isn't the best way forward, as noted by e.g. the State Department and the DoD.
It would be helpful if Kundra would actually discuss the pros and cons of cloud computing instead of climbing on a soap box and shouting 'cloud computing! rah rah rah '.
