A few of the responses here are snarky and understandably so considering the author's reasons for this post, yet the problem remains. How does cloud computing fall within the traditional IT ops model? Anecdotally I've worked for a large city and they're still a little hesitant of cloud computing because they see it as a threat to their employees. I'm not sure how it'll shake out but they'll move towards cloud computing eventually and developers instead of operations could/should manage it.

The cultural problem can also be framed as a transition from a server-centric operations model to an application-centric one -- something James Urquart wrote a great post about for GigaOM: http://gigaom.com/cloud/what-cloud-boils-down-to-for-the-enterprise-2/ http://gigaom.com/cloud/what-cloud-boils-down-to-for-the-ent...
