Welcome to Cloud and Crowd.

Over time, this site is going to become your first stopping off point for information on everything concerning software infrastructure. We’re called Cloud and Crowd because that is where the world is changing at the moment.

The collision of Web 2.0 ideas and ubiquitous computing power in the cloud is changing the way business is being done and is shaking the software infrastructure of the world to it’s core.

Will we be ditching SOA and Java?

Absolutely not!

We will, however, be putting it all into context. So where an existing SOA solution is getting expanded into the cloud or perhaps a Java core is used for a new Social Media site, we’ll be there telling you what difference it will all make to how you run your business.

A Crowd Sourced crowdsourcing site?

Yes. It’s pointless to imagine that we will get even close to finding every subtle change going on in business software infrastructure. So that’s where you come in.

If you are first to the information, let us know. First up, you’ll get “Discoverer’s kudos” and who knows there may even be a second up at some point too.
