  Hi,

  what exactly do you mean? There's way more to cloud computing than just having some "snippets of cloud". You have things like storage, messaging, compute, hosting, services, roll out your own stuff on VM's, databases, security, ...

  Start reading more about it (Windows Azure specific): http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/home/features/overview/.

  Grz, Kris.
