		<description><![CDATA[To many people concerned with `mission critical’ systems, cloud computing is of only passing interest, not least because it is still not considered suitable or industrial strength for the job. But if you interpret `mission critical system’ as the existence of the whole business, rather than any specific applications that might help the business to [...]]]></description>

During a short panel discussion/Q&#38;A session a Verizon exec, Christopher Kimm, made a small observation that is, I feel, of some importance, particularly as he [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wrote a piece last week in Business Cloud 9 (http://www.businesscloud9.com/content/ibm-and-collective-capitalism/5770) about IBM, cloud-delivered services, and collective capitalism. It raises, I feel, an important sense of direction in the way service vendors need to configure themselves if they are to meet users’ needs. And half the problem here is that very phrase, `users’ needs’. I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Cloud is not new technology, just re-packaged old technology – that’s why it is commodity, because it works and does a good job. That is why the `package’ is the important bit – it is about what constitutes a service, and the way it is both delivered to end users and how they perceive it [...]]]></description>
