Platform as a service vs Utility Computing - “why not both?” That’s my answer to Dare. Having a turn-key “just run it” approach is obviously great, but then all that code would not be optimized and so who wants that? Off the shelf re-usage will always reek of “living in a compatibility box” - and we saw what Apple did with that. On the other hand, strictly utilizing the cloud as a utility is also attractive, but lots of hard work. My answer - a hybrid of both! Insulate through your APIs to YOUR deveopers - and gradually over time - optimize to the cloud. Maybe even more than ONE cloud.
