And, as with any new technology, there is a great deal of fear, uncertainty, and doubt surrounding cloud computing., Praise for Cloudonomics: The Business Value of Cloud Computing "With this comprehensive, deeply researched book, Joe Weinman closes the case on cloud computing. And who could imagine a book on IT infrastructure and strategy could be a great read too? This book is going to help companies optimize their IT investment but, more important, position them to exploit the technology revolution of our time for competitive advantage and success." Don Tapscott, author of fourteen widely read books on IT in business and society, most recently Macrowikinomics: New Solutions for a Connected Planet "Riveting reading I couldn't put it down. With his mind-opening insights, Joe Weinman has made me realize the enormous strategic potential of the cloud, reaching way beyond cost and scale economics. Cloudonomics has the power to redefine B2C commerce, disrupt B2B business models, and create new value in previously unimagined ways. Fascinating." Fred Wiersema, Customer Strategist and Chair, B2B Leadership Board, Institute for the Study of Business Markets at Penn State, coauthor of the top-selling The Discipline of Market Leaders "Anyone even considering entering this industry will be years behind not having read Cloudonomics. I couldn't stop reading it as I found myself saying, 'Yes! Exactly!' every other page." Chuck Price, President and CEO, Ajubeo, and former VP, Technology, TD Ameritrade and Fiserv "Weinman delivers on his goal to provide a seminal and timeless overview of cloud computing. Cloudonomics is not an arcane mathematical discussion on economic theory. It's a fascinating overview of a technology revolution that's quite enjoyable to read, thanks to deep comparisons to events throughout human history and a balanced representation of many competing viewpoints." John Keagy, founder, Chairman, and CEO, GoGrid "Cloudonomics is an exceptional book for IT professionals to understand how large-scale web companies can transform their organization using public, private, and hybrid cloud computing.
