Yesterday, Reuven Cohen in ElasticVapor, provided an excellent post on the title subject. I’d like to “second his emotion” and, for my audience, add that cloud computing technologies and techniques are all about netcentricity.

It also virtualizes the individual applications through mission specific workflows on a service oriented architecture.
