Cloud computing trend 'will continue in 2010'
The data migrating trend from companies' servers to cloud computing will continue among infrastructure specialists into 2010, a report has suggested.
The study by Analysys Mason found that during the recession cloud computing has grown, thanks to its cost effectiveness.
Rob Lovell, chief executive officer of cloud computing provider ThinkGrid, said businesses are going to be "keen to benefit from the monthly payments for IT, that the cloud enables, as opposed to having to spend large amounts of capital whenever hardware or software needs updating or replacing".
By using cloud computing, organisations can be "rid of the IT management burden" because their computing needs will be serviced by the cloud, Mr Lovell said.
2010 is, according to the agenda-setting publication CNET, going to be a year of experimentation in the cloud computing sector, with more and more companies looking to the cloud as a possible IT solution.
"However," says Mr Lovell, "some organisations are still worried about the reliability of cloud services and have concerns about how secure their data will be in the cloud. These concerns will need to be addressed and overcome".
