What a BS conclusion ...
Are you serious or just plain delusional???

Using a server is not using cloud computing. In fact, any decent professional company would never even think about anything "cloud" except for basic web hosting.

Let me just give you the top two most logical reasons why real companies stay the hell way from the concept of cloud computing:

#1- SECURITY. Cloud computing is HUGE security hole, even if provided by a "trusted 3rd party". If you think data breaches and industrial espionage are bad right now, just imagine what would happen if companies put their nest eggs in the hands of hands of unknown, uncleared people.

#2- RELIABILITY. All it takes is a single web outage in your are to have almost 100% loss of productivity. And they last only a few minutes .... right?? If you can't login to the web, you are basically unable to do anything. At least with an intranet, only the affected service is off line until fixed and you can continue to work without an active connection to the net.
