Maria Spínola a Cloud Computing evangelist issued a white paper titled: An Essential Guide to Possibilities and Risks of Cloud Computing, wherein she writes:
“Cloud Computing proposes to transform the way IT is deployed and managed, promising reduced implementation and maintenance costs, while accelerating innovation, providing faster time-to market (…)”
“Cloud Computing is not a technology revolution, but rather a process and business (…) without investing in new infrastructure, training new personnel, or licensing new software and you only pay what you ‘consume’.”
