Is cloud service an ultimate in outsourcing?

Whether it is public , private or Hybrid do we have the means to know where the server is located. As we are in case of Intranet. What is the authenticity of the service and what is the guaranty that my information would notbecompromised. In short how do i know who is doing the job for me , what are his credentials ,and whether my information would not be used in any wrongway.

Well, I believe the answers to your questions highly dependent on the service provider if you are considerring Public Cloud. if private defintely it is you or your staff. while i see the strength and differentiator across several cloud leaders in the market would be the common Cloud management solution across your primesis and the cloud and the seamless experience to manage both and hyprid with these solutions as well as flexibility to scale up and out vertically and horizentally back and forth between your public and private clouds.

The cloud is indeed simplifying some aspects of the IT and business services world. But it’s also making many others more complex. Some kinds of services might actually become almost as easy as turning on the lights. On the other hand, customers often need more than just raw power. The electric company isn’t in the business of providing advice about what appliances your home needs, for example, or about how all your fancy new electronic equipment works together. Different folks need different strokes.

So the various levels of service needed in the new cloud environment will inevitably result in a kind of shakeout within the outsourcing industry itself, resulting in a range of providers offering alternative value propositions at a variety of price points.

The danger for corporate customers at this point in the evolution of cloud services and outsourcing is in overemphasizing the easy parts while paying insufficient attention to the hard parts.
