“... among large enterprises, cloud computing is gaining critical mass, with more than 80% of
respondents at least in trial stages for public and private cloud computing deployments.”
– F5, August 2009
“The bottom line: Early adopters are finding serious benefits, meaning that cloud computing is real and warrants your scrutiny as a new set of
platforms for business applications.” – Forrester, August 2009
“...most enterprises will eventually exploit cloud-based services for a significant portion of their
information services over time and, in the long run, a majority of these implementations will be hybrids.”
– Gartner, December 2008
“A recent IDC survey of IT executives, CIOs, and their line of business (LOB) colleagues shows that
cloud services are ‘crossing the chasm’ and entering a period of widespread adoption.”
– IDC, October 2008
