Most of the private cloud installations I've seen involved two steps. 1. Moving legacy client-server applications from physical installation to virtualized environment. 2. Slow replace the legacy applications (mostly platform dependent client-server software) with web-based software (which usually support mobile devices, hence the connection to the, umm, OP?). Whether you call the above "the move to private clouds" "The move to Web 2.0 applications" or "the mad cat revolution" is completely irrelevant. - Gilboa -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
