In this keynote, Jonathan Koomey will discuss some of the economic factors making cloud computing an ever-more attractive proposition for delivering computing services. These factors include economies of scale and diversity of users compared to smaller in-house data centers. While not all applications are suitable for the cloud, the economic advantages of these centralized computing installations will make them increasingly attractive for businesses seeking computing services at the lowest total cost.
