Why are some enterprises reluctant to adopt cloud computing services? In this video, Jeff Keltner, a Business Development Manager for Google Apps, discusses three “myths” about cloud computing that contribute to enterprise hesitation. Keltner provides Google’s response to concerns that the cloud is not secure, cloud computing is not proven, and that it’s not ready for the enterprise. It’s a Google-centric view, but Keltner provides interesting insight into how Google is discussing Google Apps amid the broader conversation about the opportunities and risks of cloud computing. This video runs about 6 minutes. Link via
