You CIO's keep humping on those IBM 370's cranking out the bits. Or their blade equivalents. Yeah, there is loss of control, yeah there are major league security issues, yeah one has to be connected to make it work.
But to dismiss the concept so clearly with the "most overhyped" label is to earn the term "luddite". Noone is saying embrace and trust The Force but I would be worried about stopping my mind from considering anything that would help my organization get better IT at lower cost -- where this is it or not.
Just a note -- I have no financial or other interests in "cloud", "Web 2.0", etc.
