“ · Cloud Computing: I used to argue that targeting cloud computing was a terrible idea for startups since the biggest cloud operators like Google and Amazon tend to do all custom hardware and software and purchase very little commercially. I may have been correct initially but, with the cloud market growing so incredibly fast, every teleco is entering the market, each colo provider is entering, most hardware providers are entering, … the number of players is going from 10s to 1000s. And, at 1,000s, it’s a great market for a startup to target. Most of these companies are not going to build custom networking, server, and storage hardware but they do have the need to innovate with the rest of the industry. „
