The document discusses the anatomy of cloud delivery to enterprises. It describes key cloud components like data centers, networks, software solutions and cloud services that are provided by Equinix, VMware and other partners. The cloud opportunity is large with public cloud markets growing significantly. However, changing processes, culture and overcoming political barriers are major inhibitors to cloud adoption. Successful cloud migrations require addressing these challenges as well as operational needs for flexibility, scalability and standardization. Case studies demonstrate how organizations can transfer workloads between private and public clouds to optimize resources and meet business demands.
