Gaikai has way more potential than Cloud ever could! Cloud computing could be impressive in 10 years, but then again i expect Google will have a better version in time.


Gaikai is Cloud bassed, hell pretty much the entire internet is cloud computing...

"Cloud computing - correctly: a Computing Cloud - is a colloquial expression used to describe a variety of different computing concepts that involve a large number of computers that are connected through a real-time communication network (typically the Internet). Cloud Computing is a jargon term without a commonly accepted non-ambiguous scientific or technical definition. In science Cloud computing is a synonym for distributed computing over a network and means the ability to run a program on many connected computers at the same time. The popularity of the term Cloud computing can be attributed to its use in marketing to sell hosted services in the sense of Application Service Provisioning that run Client server software on a remote location."

You're correct, but i was talking about Microsoft's version. The company i work at has been using it for more than a year now. The only positive about it, compared to the SAP variant we had, is that it Costs less.


Azure cloud services are second only to Amazon (and they even surpass it in some areas). any other company isn't even in the same league as those two
