The Cloud will cease to be a novelty or a laboratory, it is for real and it has proved it can deliver reliably in 2012 despite the pessimists who  kept picking on every cloud disruption rather then seeing the totality of the benefits. 2013 will be the year when the cloud will be the utility that transform and drives the economy in a tough and recessionary year.

Adieu cloud evangelism, Welcome cloud computing for Real benefits to business.
