Cloud Computing for Business
Jaap van der Does ABN Amro, Business Analyst 06-09-2011
'A good introduction to the subject that gives useful tools for a business to decide to what extent cloud computing is the way to go’Jaap van der Does, Business Analyst, ABN Amro‘This is a joy to read, the flow is excellent, the writing style is easily understood, and the format works well. In terms of content, it covers every aspect of Cloud that I`d expect to see, including potential pitfalls’Kevin Holland, Service Management Consultant Specialist, UK Department of Health Informatics Directorate‘A very interesting book, not only with good coverage of the subject, but also written in a very clear and understandable way’Adrie Verdaasdonk Senior Business Analyst , Sub-domain Olympic , ABN AMRO, IT Solutions International‘A good understanding of the Cloud Computing concept is not only understanding the technology concept and the possible benefits it can bring. To determine if and how to achieve and leverage these benefits, you also have to consider aspects as security, `organizational readiness` and drawbacks like (lack of) flexibility and functionality. This book covers these aspects by approaching Cloud Computing from a business perspective’Paul Leunissen, Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment (Netherlands)‘a great initiative with great content’Gert-Jan ter Weeme, Department of Internal Affairs (Netherlands)‘The book is well written and accessible, it is extensive in the aspects that have to be covered in deciding upon the use of services in the cloud. A helpful `tool` for all those that are actively involved in the decision process. I enjoyed reading and reviewing the book.’Gerrit Jan Timmermans, Architecture@Heart‘The Open Group has provided a clear and concise approach to the Cloud topic. Ideal for the business person, the book is a practical and instructive guide –what’s more it is vetted by experts around the world and so delivers solid, objective material that will prove invaluable to readers.’ Eddie Michiels, Ernst & Young'
