If I were to construct a company today it would live in the Cloud. The insecurities are driven by regulatory concerns and big iron inertia. As a validation & virtualization practice we are answering these issues and finding companies taking baby steps. Even if the concerns don't make sense, for major companies you have very specific oversight panels that dictate where the applications and data need to be housed. Yes a well-architected app in the cloud can be very secure, robust, available... guys like you go prove it, and the big players and SIs will need to "certify" it in their own context and it will happen. 2 years is my mainstream estimate, outside of specific shared business functions that can easily move to Cloud without regulatory issues.
