    The first thing you are talking about is Data Privacy. If data are not entirely safe even in their own corporate data centers, the danger increases when left to the cloud. It should also be borne in mind that many countries require that the data of its citizens are kept within their national territories. However, in the cloud computing model data can reside anywhere, without the customer being aware of their location.

    Re: Major risk involved in cloud computing

    If we talk about the applications to work in the new model must be written so that they can be divided among multiple servers. And since not all ready for it, companies are forced to rewrite them. And we also need to create universal standards to ensure interoperability between services, something that now does not happen. It is important to create universally accepted standards, not play the fractures that the computing world has been watching generation to generation among incompatible standards.

    Re: Major risk involved in cloud computing

    In my case where I had did some research on this I get to some points.
