Future cloud apps won’t need humans

Lew Tucker, vice president and chief technology officer of cloud computing at Sun Microsystems, foresees applications that are entirely self-sufficient.

It is important, he says, that these applications be unified and driven by a compatible set of protocols in order to create a global cloud of clouds.
