H-P Joins Microsoft in the Clouds
Cloud computing is the new buzzword for big tech companies across the globe. This new technology is opening up a plethora of business opportunities to tech companies, while helping the end-user streamline their day-to-day workflow without investing much on the hardware upgrade.
Sensing the huge opportunities for growth in this segment, technology majors Hewlett-Packard Company (NYSE: HPQ) and Microsoft Corporation (Nasdaq: MSFT) have entered into a three-year agreement to jointly invest $250.0 million for building an infrastructure model to enhance the application of cloud computing.
Companies are expected to spend around $95.0 billion on cloud computing by 2011, and another $160 billion is expected to be generated from end consumer-applications, like mail and entertainment services offered by tech companies like Google (Nasdaq: GOOG), Yahoo (Nasdaq: YHOO) and Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL).
