@Phares, noob question:- So Safcom are not going to offer VPS on their "cloud"? Na vile I was running my hands in glee :-(
I first heard the term 'internal cloud' from one of our customers.
Upon probing on what exactly he meant, it was explained to me that he
was talking of virtualizing infrastructure... Basically, if you run
VMware/Hyper-V/Citrix-XenServer you run an 'internal cloud'. The term
is now being loosely used.
What saddens me though is when people assume that all 'clouds' are
equal. e.g. When Safaricom announced their cloud, many assumed that
you could do *everything* not realizing that it's limited to
Infrastructure as a Service. It's unfortunate though :-(.
