Having had professional dealings with several cloud providers, I'm finding
this thread most amusing. Put it this way, my advice to my then employers
(one of the world's largest) was not to touch any cloud provider with a
barge pole. The only data you should place with a cloud provider is that
which you're happy to lose or have stolen.
