Indeed there is a lot to consider before taking the step of moving into the cloud. A company should do its homework before taking such as step and realise exactly what it will mean to its business

This is an excellent an excellent set of questions that should be asked before an organization moves to the cloud, although at this point I tend to agree with the very cautious advice offered in a recent white paper on cloud governance (http://networkedblogs.com/4jwG7):

“Evaluating whether or not to move your data center into the Cloud demands more than a cost-benefit analysis. Management must look at security with exhaustive due diligence. It must relocate to the Cloud only the information that is not mission critical to the safety and continuity of the business.”
