Free eBook: Identity in the Cloud

Das Aspen Institut hat ein kostenloses eBook herausgebracht, das sich sehr interessant anhört: Identity in the Age of Cloud Computing: The next-generation Internet’s impact on business, governance and social interaction (PDF, 110 Seiten).

Cloud computing has quickly become a buzzword in the information and communications technology (ICT) world. It refers to themyriad of information and communications activities that are increasingly taking place in the network, broadly defined. Like the migration of electricity in the early 1900s from local generation to an electrical grid with metered service, the cloud signals the movement of hard and soft functions such as storage, software applications and services to an off premises service industry.

Ein interessantes Buch, glaube ich. Habs aber noch nicht gelesen.
