Is enterprise cloud adoption going through a lull ?

I recently broke my collarbone and couldn't type.   So spent a lot of time catching up with some smart folks like Christopher Hoff.  Interesting that many of us thought it seems like we are going through a lull in enterprise buying of cloud technologies.

I do see what they are saying -  it seems like many of the CIO's who were gung ho to do summer pilot projects are slowing down...why?

I do not think this is a lull - instead the splashing water (survivcal mentality) is starting to go away..    The economy is getting better (or this is anticipated - almost the same thing).  Now the pressure's on to act quickly on trying out new things either to increase revenue or save $$'s.

Executives are getting back into a regular budget cycle, and this is planning time for most companies as they get back to thinking how to show good results and pitch budget needs for next year.

We at Sonoa are convinced that promise of cloud is strong as ever and our customers pilots are going into production w/ awesome results. The wave will continue to build into next year as more success stories are discussed - get ready!
