Cloud computing builds out the Internet so companies can have better control over their information and services, drive down costs, speed up responsiveness, and increase data security. It also is a cost-efficient model for delivering information services for everything from single systems to massive amounts of IT resources, on demand, and in real time. Cloud computing can:
--Allow enterprises to achieve more efficient use of their IT hardware and software investments
--Reduce IT management complexity, providing an innovative and responsive real-time workload balance
--Provide more options to use competing, interoperable vendors and standard features
--Reduce capital expenditures by converting technology costs to operational expenditures through virtualization
--Launch Web 2.0 applications quickly and scale up applications as needed
