Cloud Computing Too Costly in the Long Term?

,----[ Quote ]
| Standards, like those on Linux, are key here, 
| too--McCormack cautioned in his presentation 
| that customers should avoid vendor lock in. 

| This is exactly the sort of lock in that 
| projects like Red Hat's Deltacloud are trying 
| to prevent.

,----[ Quote ]
| Cloud computing is a relativity new computing concept
| where resources are provided via the Internet instead
| of on the local computer or network. One of these
| resources can be an entire operating system (OS), or at
| least Web applications that try to mimic Windows and
| other OSs. This resource is commonly referred to as a
| Web OS.
|
| One of the points behind Web OSs is to relieve the
| local computer of the work; to put the computing power
| behind a central server. It's virtualization over the
| Internet. The client or end user computers don't have
| to be regularly maintained; they just need a Web
| browser. For example, applications can be globally
| installed or uninstalled from the Web OS server instead
| of on each PC.
