Complexity kills.
Complexity sucks the life out of users, developers and IT. Complexity makes products difficult to plan, build, test and use. Complexity introduces security challenges. Complexity causes administrator frustration.

We’re moving toward a world of:
cloud-based continuous services that connect us all and do our bidding, and
appliance-like connected devices enabling us to interact with those cloud-based services.
