IBM cloud chief: Private clouds a fit for test and development | Cloud Computing - InfoWorld

"Enterprises are embracing private cloud networks to improve the efficiency of test and development organizations, IBM cloud computing software chief Kristof Kloeckner says. Test and development systems are generally not highly utilized, he notes. IT provisions servers and storage for specific purposes, but then doesn't reclaim them when that purpose has been fulfilled, leading to a shortage of resources. Secondly, procuring servers and setting them up takes longer than users would like."

David S. Linthicum Unfiltered: Is Microsoft being left out of cloud computing?

"Moreover, and I found this out myself as CEO of two cloud computing companies, it's just not very PC to leverage Microsoft these days. The VC doesn't like it, the cloud computing end users don't like it, and the developers don't like it. Whatever PR war that was being fought by Microsoft in the emerging cloud space is long lost, if you ask me."

Is Google App Engine successful? | The Wisdom of Clouds - CNET News

"So, all of this might lead you to believe I'm anti-App Engine, or at least not confident that it is important except as a PaaS example. And until yesterday, you would be right. However, I spent the day yesterday at the Cloud Connect conference, hosted at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, Calif. Google was much more visible here (in part because they were a "platinum sponsor"), and perhaps more importantly, the "how to" sessions they hosted Wednesday afternoon were packed by interested developers and technologists."
