As cost reduction and operational efficiency continue to be key priorities for Irish CIOs, the maturation of services and new models and applications should cement Cloud Computing at the forefront of IT Managers’ minds this year.

One of the hottest IT topics of recent times, Cloud Computing is fast becoming mainstream. And, with the government committing to making Ireland a leader in this space, it can only be good news for the uptake of cloud services and platforms among Irish business.
