  • She explored the factors of growth for 2010, including a significant emphasis on consolidation, such as Desutsche Telekom’s acquisition of Strato and a considerable increase in the European and Asian cloud markets.
  • How there is some discrepancy in the projections for how big the cloud market is worth.
  • While many estimate the market at anywhere between $42 billion to $300 billion, Tier1 says it is worth just under $1 billion.
  • Talked all about cloud assurance and security, enforcing strict SLAs, automated management, hybrid solutions and federated clouds, and unified deliver platform.
