Q&A: Sun's CTO Talks About Cloud Computing 

,----[ Quote ]
| InformationWeek: In a recent keynote, you talked about the intersection of 
| cloud computing and open source. What are the advantages for data centers?  
| 
| Papadopoulos: The message there is, for those two things, the economic times 
| will help accelerate their acceptance and not inhibit them. People are going 
| to move rapidly to these types of environments. I think cloud computing and 
| open source are deeply related to each other. If you're using a cloud -- 
| especially a public cloud -- proprietary software licensing hasn't caught up 
| there yet. It's really difficult to run Oracle or Windows in these cloud 
| environments. Because the open source stuff is freely accessible, developers 
| can make it happen more easily.
