\u201cThere is a common view among media and analysts that the cloud computing market will see rapid growth in the foreseeable future,\u201d observed Alex Mei, Executive VP and CMO of OCZ Technology Group, in this exclusive Q&A with Cloud Expo Conference Chair Jeremy Geelan. \u201cCompanies will need to adapt quickly to these fast changing conditions as cloud computing continues to mature to meet the demands of IT and ultimately end users,\u201d Mei concluded.
\nCloud Computing Journal: Agree or disagree? \u2013 “While the IT savings aspect is compelling, the strongest benefit of cloud computing is how it enhances business agility.”
\nAlex Mei: Agree. While driving down the costs associated with IT is certainly an important factor of cloud computing, the ability to create new ways for users to interact and access their data over the cloud is changing the very way that businesses can operate. The fact that cloud computing allows companies to scale their businesses at the rate they choose provides more \u201cagility\u201d than heavy investments in traditional large-scale infrastructure. Ultimately cloud computing can open up entirely new opportunities that can accelerate businesses or help facilitate more efficient delivery of services.<\/p>\n
