Grim Reality: The Extremely Disruptive Cloud
We’re All Being Disrupted Now
Mike Saliter from QlikTech, creator of the business intelligence software QlikView, predicts cloud will soon takeover and become the industry standard. Basically, anyone looking to start their own product or firm can go to Amazon, Microsoft or Oracle and sign up for a platform as a service, which provides them with a computer platform and solution stack; all in a matter of minutes.
The dark side of cloud is that, it forces legacy players to radically change their business model, if they do not adapt they are bound to suffer the consequences of being left behind.
