An increasing number of businesses are discovering that cloud
computing can save them significant operating and capital expenses.
However, cost is not the only reason companies are moving to cloud
computing. This paper examines the many strategic business benefits
behind the adoption of cloud computing in small, medium-sized, and
enterprise companies. As with many new technologies proposed for
improving business processes, customers have legitimate questions
about adapting their critical applications and data to these technologies.
Similarly, myths and misperceptions of new technologies may easily
spread with little basis or justification. This paper addresses potential
business concerns and prevalent misperceptions of cloud computing
and offers interested businesses concrete advice for making informed
decisions. Finally, this paper broadly describes the cloud computing
architecture that Joyent offers, including the company’s unique
approach to pricing, flexibility, performance, and business resilience.
