I really see cloud computing as the realisation of Utility Computing as envisaged by John McCarthy in 1960. Sure some people argue SaaS is the same as the ASPs from back then but I tend to differ. I believe one of the more important characteristics which SaaS so popular today lies in its elastic on-demand nature. SaaS, the other XaaS services, really allow dynamic scaling based on business demand. Not only can you quickly scale up to meet seasonal demand, say a billing run once a month, but you can also scale down and only pay for what you use. Ooh, I am so excited about this space as I have always preached, agreeing with Nic Carr, that IT is really a commodity and cloud computing is really the industrialisation of IT. Sure there are many challenges requiring ironing out, but like you I too am bullish. Andre (@the_dre) Hi Peter
