4 Points to think about
http://www.isgtw.org/?pid=1001994
From Grid to Cloud evolution
The Cloud is replacing the Grid infrastructure
Our Window to the World On-Demand Services for On-Demand People
Mobile Cloud
But it is also the “Big Brother” enabler The World is becoming even smaller
We create a unified platform
for a new International market of services
and social gathering
