Executives are beginning to see upfront costs as a barrier to private cloud adoption
Computer Business Review
The survey was carried out by supercomputing firm Platform Computing and looked at what is driving - or not driving - private cloud implementation.
In terms of what is holding adoption back, it seems that organisational culture, essentially meaning acceptance and understanding of cloud computing, is dropping down the list of barriers. Organisational culture was the biggest barrier to adoption in 2009, with 37% selecting it. That figure dropped by 10% in 2010 and fell even further this time to just 17%.
