[ Cloud Computing ] Private cloud networks are the future of corporate IT?

Gartner has predicated "Private cloud networks are the future of
corporate IT"
http://www.networkworld.com/news/2008/111208-private-cloud-networks.html

I believe such a trend could fuel new innovation and business
opportunities for Tech startups, ISVs and Service providers.

What is the Eco-System here ?

"Emergence of new Tech firms/Tools"

a) Better (cost effective) tools to Automate-Package,Deploy and Manage
the "VM Image Stacks"
- Example of emerging companies - Enamoly,Embotics,rPath
- Critical Enabler/Manager of Corporate IT Private clouds

"Cloud Ready -ISV Packages"

b) More and more Self contained VM Stacks of ISV Packages (ex Redhat/
Lamp/JBoss for AMZ EC2) that corporate IT/CIO could upgrade to or
shop for.

Emergence of Innovative /Niche Cloud Solutions/Services"

c) Service providers to the Corporates

Finally a+b+c for CIOs should be optimised for Better IT
consolidation,Lower TCO,Improved ROI

ALL ARE WELCOME TO SHARE MORE OF YOUR THOUGHTS......
