TAKEAWAY: At this week's Enterprise 2.0 conference, one topic of interest is cloud computing. Amazon's VP of product management for Web services, Adam Selipsky, talked to Intelligent Enterprise about enterprise cloud computing. Selipsky predicted that a vast number of IT applications could theoretically be moved to the cloud. He pointed out that cloud computing can reduce the complexity of work for a company to implement functions like storage and databases, that it could be more economical, and that in many cases it could be more reliable.
Selipsky also commented on data security in the cloud and how Amazon plans to differentiate itself from competition by other vendors entering the space in the future by offering building block services with platform flexibility and continuous addition of new services.Source: Intelligent Enterprise
