Dallas, TX -- (SBWire) -- 01/21/2011 -- This report provides a review of the cloud computing strategies, roadmaps, and offers of AT&T, BT, Orange Business Services, and Verizon Business. It is primarily aimed at vendors and service providers with a competitive cloud computing offer or those planning to launch cloud computing services, particularly IaaS. While the report is not intended to provide a comparative buying guide for end users (i.e. enterprises planning to adopt cloud computing), it can also help end users to understand the positioning and capabilities they can expect to see from these and other major telcos worldwide, and to make an informed decision about whether to consider telcos for their cloud computing needs. It also offers end users some guidance in terms of what to look for in cloud computing services, particularly in areas such as SLAs, pricing models, and networking options.
