{{edit semi-protected|Cloud computing|answered=yes}}
Two words need to be separated and a "to" added between them in the second paragraph from the top. "organizationsfocus" needs to be changed to "organizations to focus"
This is in the sentence "As well, it enables organizationsfocus on their core businesses instead of spending time and money on computer infrastructure."
I remember when these pages weren't protected like this and I could have just made the simple change like this myself. Boy has Wikipedia changed since 2000 when I was working at AOL and playing around with it. Now it's just like any other encyclopedia ... you have to send in recommendations to the "editor". - Loftlon

Advocates claim that cloud computing allows companies to avoid upfront infrastructure costs (e.g., purchasing
<a class="mw-disambig" title="Server" href="/wiki/Server">servers</a>
). As well, it enables organizationsfocus on their core businesses instead of spending time and money on computer infrastructure.

Proponents also claim that cloud computing allows enterprises to get their applications up and running faster, with improved manageability and less maintenance, and enables Information Technology (IT) teams to more rapidly adjust resources to meet fluctuating and unpredictable business demand.

== Balance sheet assets ==
The following sentence is a nonsense:
:The term "moving to cloud" also refers to an organization moving away from a traditional CAPEX model (buy the dedicated hardware and depreciate it over a period of time) to the OPEX model (use a shared cloud infrastructure and pay as one uses it).
The way of financing computer equipment like anything else is down to a financial decision. A company may own a fleet of lorries, or they can lease them, or they can rent them, or they can contract out the work to other haulage companies. Typically a operator will often employ all four models simultaneously and modify it depending of the most efficient mix. It is no different with computer equipment and services. So "moving to the cloud" has nothing to do with CAPEX of OPEX models, it is merely a metaphor for a type of computer infrastructure that may or may not be an asset on the balance sheet.

I see there is a source used in the article which could be used to support the sentence:
*{{cite web|url=http://aws.amazon.com/what-is-cloud-computing/|title=What is Cloud Computing? |work=Amazon Web Services |date=2013-03-19 |accessdate=2013-03-20}}
but it fails the [[MRDA (slang)|MRDA]], and is not written by someone who is qualified to asses the different way a corporation can finance their computer infrastructure. -- [[User:PBS|PBS]] ([[User talk:PBS|talk]]) 12:14, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
