While the equation may not work for the smallest companies, and some IT departments avoid it in order to build an ever-larger empire for themselves, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) is the up-and-coming thing. http://www.itworld.com/saas/63614/saas-better-way-buy#comments SaaS Opinion hosted services Tue, 03 Mar 2009 15:59:04 -0500 ITworld staff 63614 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/saas/62959/microsofts-razorfish-taps-rackspace-cloud-hosting Microsoft's Razorfish has chosen Rackspace as its cloud-hosting platform rather than wait for Microsoft to release Azure. http://www.itworld.com/saas/62959/microsofts-razorfish-taps-rackspace-cloud-hosting#comments SaaS News cloud computing hosted services Microsoft Rackspace Thu, 19 Feb 2009 12:48:16 -0500 ITworld staff 62959 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/virtualization/61532/startup-introduces-cloud-marketplace Deutsche Telekom spin-off Zimory has unveiled Public Cloud, a marketplace for companies that want to buy and sell hosted server capacity online. http://www.itworld.com/virtualization/61532/startup-introduces-cloud-marketplace#comments Virtualization News cloud computing hosted services Tue, 27 Jan 2009 20:48:04 -0500 ITworld staff 61532 at http://www.itworld.com http://www.itworld.com/saas/61385/case-against-cloud-computing-part-one I've had a series of interesting conversations with people involved in cloud computing who, paradoxically, maintain that cloud computing is -- at least today -- inappropriate for enterprises. I say paradoxically because each of them works for or represents a large technology company's cloud computing efforts, and one would think their role would motivate them to strongly advocate cloud adoption.
