Views on Emerging Technologies Like Cloud and Virtualization
Interoperability and portability are key considerations for the adoption
of cloud. The ease of integration of cloud services with the existing
services within the enterprise will be critical in managing costs.
Portability of services allows for flexibility of services between
services providers. Attaining the necessary levels of portability and
interoperability requires standards for cloud and understanding the
choices available as the technologies mature. This is one of the most
important discussions for the long-term success of cloud. If ignored, it
is an area that can cause a major impact later on as new services are
considered, for example, extraordinary integration costs and extended
implementation times.
