: I agree and have spent the last days improving the situation ([[multitenancy]] is a key characteristic of [[cloud computing]] and [[SaaS]] a subset), but there could still afford to be some clarity in terms of differentiating the other terms (esp grid/clustering).

Argh I cant believe people are using this term!<small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:58.28.155.207|58.28.155.207]] ([[User talk:58.28.155.207|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/58.28.155.207|contribs]]) {{{2|}}}</small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->
: It seems that this is the last Marketing fad (and Marketing '''does''' creates new words especially in the computing world), and as WP is just the image of the real world, I believe we should use this terme too. This not a problem in my opinion, as if the concept settles on an other term we'll just have to do a renaming (a Redirect). This is how WP works --[[User:Kompere|Kompere]] ([[User talk:Kompere|talk]]) 14:53, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
::Actually I think [[cloud computing]] has a good deal more potential than that as an umbrella term for all the other [[*aaS]] guff... I'd certainly much rather see us talking about [[cloud computing]] than bolting ''as a service'' onto everything. The question now is more about whether the vendors manage to derail it as they did [[grid computing]]... [[User:SamJohnston|samj]] ([[User talk:SamJohnston|talk]]) 08:53, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 
Sounds like an updated version of the 1960's service bureau. I would like to see a comparison.
