The explosion of cloud computing terminology and services has made it harder to differentiate between the many offerings and understand where the cloud begins and marketing ends. In this interview with Beet.tv, Forrester VP and Principal Analyst Frank Gillett discusses the trend toward “cloudwashing” and provides a broader context for understanding the proliferation of cloud-related offerings. This video runs about 3 minutes, 45 seconds.

Thanks for the video Rick and Frank. Great insight—also liked the stance you had on Merrill Lynch, as well as cloudwashing vendors that are coming out of the weeds.
