Cloud OS a Myth

A cloud operating system is unnecessary at this point in the evolutionary cycle of the technology. Part of the allure of the cloud is its reliance on the internet, which, as everyone knows, is built on established, well-supported standards such as TCP/IP.

Applications served via the internet are almost always transported via HTTP, which completes the standards-based trifecta that has long supported the web, and now makes the cloud realistic.

Nothing special is required for an operating system to support the cloud. No new standards, no new capabilities, and no new functionality at the operating-system layer.
