What the Cloud?
summary
Argues that "cloud" is a service not just tech and contrasts OpenStack vs AWS vs OpenShift as concrete IaaS/PaaS/CaaS options, explains the public-cloud shared responsibility and that private clouds force full ops ownership, cites a real customer where automation drops VM provisioning from 28 days to 27 days because processes and approvals remain unchanged, documents common failures (executive mandates, no developer/security buy‑in) and prescribes: pick clear use cases, involve devs/infra/security day‑one, and phase deployment.
