SPECIAL REPORT

Inside the emerging world of cloud computing

You hear the phrase almost everywhere you turn. But don't let the hype fool you: Cloud computing is real, and IT needs to start experimenting with the several options available through the cloud.

What cloud computing really means
The next big trend sounds nebulous, but it's not so fuzzy when you view the value proposition from the perspective of IT professionals

Early experiments in cloud computing
Cloud computing has many faces, some just beginning to take shape. But at the New York Times and Nasdaq, first steps into on-demand infrastructure show promise

A step closer to the integrated cloud
Internet-provisioned apps can save money but don't integrate well; ZoHo is the first to try to change that

Amazon's cloud computing service fuels startup's launch
Elastra's software for building database management systems will be deployed on top of Amazon's EC2 cloud computing service

Amazon adds resilience to cloud computing service
Two new features make failover, address management easier
