Welcome to the eighth annual IT budget issue of Cutter Benchmark Review. In each installment, CBR gathers and analyzes fresh data to understand both the state of IT budgeting in the current year and the emerging trends that can be seen by looking at the changes taking place (or not taking place) between years.
"Cloud service providers, the IT industry, professional and industry associations, governments, and IT professionals all have a role to play in shaping, fostering, and harnessing the full potential of the emerging cloud ecosystem."
-- San Murugesan, Guest Editor
"This issue of CBR just works. First, we have a fresh set of data, made more useful by the fact that we can compare it historically to a previous survey. Second, we have a solid 'bird's eye' view of the DDS space through the high-level conceptual framework articulated by Federico and Gabe. And, third, we have a very pragmatic 'nuts and bolts' view of the same space from Manjunath."
