A
fairy-tail
like place where computers work perfectly 100% of the time.
Servers never
crash, applications run flawlessly, disks never fill up, and viruses cease to exist. Even user-error ceases to exist, because The Cloud won't let it.
Programmer: "Sir, our servers are slow, our application sucks, and our employees are idiots. Larry just ran DEL *.* in the system folder by accident!"
IT Manager: "
Don't sweat it, man...we're moving TO THE CLOUD.
Pretty soon we'll bring lawn-chairs to work and spend our work-week beatin'
Asian kids at online poker."
User: "Wait...can The Cloud really fix all that? What about our broken app and all the viruses?"
Manager: "Never. Doubt. The Cloud."
User: "Well the marketing material does say even a monkey can do it. Step
1: Move to The Cloud. Step 2: Make it Rain on 'dem Hoes."
Manager: "Brilliant"
