How Increasing Cloud Reliance Affects IT Jobs

Posted by Soulskill on Tuesday July 12, 2011 @04:18PM from the bob-here-will-escort-you-out-of-the-building dept.

snydeq writes "Kevin Fogarty takes a look at how the rise of cloud computing will impact IT jobs, outlining which roles stand to gain prominence in the years to come, and which roles will suffer as organizations extend their commitments to the cloud. 'Ultimately the bulk of IT could look more like a projects office than the way it looks now, when most of the hands-on work is done inside. It probably won't be a total transformation, but moving into cloud, there will be more of that and less DIY.'"

Sod IT, go to law school. When it's all up in the cloud and the cloud breaks there'll be a killing to be made.

No wonder you are having so many issues connecting to the internet.... Your connections are constantly firing pistols at each other at 10 paces.
