		<description><![CDATA[Clouds and Service Oriented Architecture (SOA).  Do they conflict as IT strategies? Are they flavors of the same approach – service orientation?  Can you even adopt Cloud Computing without SOA? How do they relate and complement each other?  There are almost as many variations in opinions as there are industry pundits! Some are very wise [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Don’t miss the truly strategic opportunities offered by the various forms of Cloud Computing! Cloud Computing, like any innovation, will progress through the cycle of early excitement,  followed by disillusionment as stories surface about early failures to live up to unreasonable expectations. Then, as successful experiences and best practices evolve, we’ll begin to see the real, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The early phases of a new technology paradigm are disruptive and confusing.  And the confusion usually starts with words and the difficulty of clearly communicating complex topics!  That’s definitely true of the cloud computing paradigm. The term “Cloud Computing” is applied to a wide variety of applications and (sometimes contradictory) definitions. This post wraps up [...]]]></description>

Definitions, benefits and risks, strategies for adoption, are all over the map. Most have some merit; very few make practical sense and are actionable. My goal in this series is to provide fundamental definitions and practical strategies that can [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I think that one of the most significant benefits from the over-heated interest in Cloud Computing may be the result of a change in the way we think about Services (SOA). Effective use of a Cloud - especially IaaS and PaaS - will essentially mandate that we implement our applications as services &#8211; at least, any application [...]]]></description>

I offer as evidence the emergence of a couple of excellent books on the subject.  &#8221;Cloud Application Architectures&#8220;, by George Reese, was released in April, and David Linthicum &#8216;s new book, &#8220;Cloud Computing [...]]]></description>
