Clouds on the Horizon

Clouds are a large pool of easily usable and accessible virtualized resources (such as hardware, development platforms and/or services). These resources can be dynamically reconfigured to adjust to a variable load (scale), allowing also for an optimum resource utilization. This pool of resources is typically exploited by a pay-per-use model in which guarantees are offered by the Infrastructure provider by means of customized SLAs.

— Vaquero, Rodero-Merino, Caceres, Linder

“ ”

… outsourced, pay-as-you-go, SaaS, on-demand, somewhere in the Internet, etc.

… using the internet to allow people to access technology enabled services.Those services must be massively scalable.

“ ”

“ ”

We've redefined cloud computing to include everything that we already do. Maybe I'm an idiot, but I have no idea what anyone is talking about. What is it? It's complete gibberish. It's insane. When is this idiocy going to stop?
