    Cloud Hosting is cost effective when you compare having to procure hardware for development and or growth but I still think cloud hosting is still too high brow for the typical SMB company to understand.

    Most SMB’s are lucky to have a website that is kept up to date and functional, expecting these businesses to make the leap from standard hosting to cloud hosting is a stretch

    @Bruce Payson,
    I see massive opportunity in the Cloud Hosting Space…if a software developer could create a online standards based front end (ala the AWS Management Console https://console.aws.amazon.com/)
    that would work with any cloud service providers offering, a large number of SMB’S would adopt cloud hosting…..
