We are living through the dawn of cloud computing. But some of the clouds are dark ones. Latency to cloud infrastructure remains a problem for many interactive apps and services. The security of data in the cloud requires an intentionally amorphous set of entities and infrastructure. And the cloud still struggles at times to provide reliability guarantees. At times, the cloud should still remind us of Leslie Lamport’s definition of a distributed system: "a system where I can’t get my work done because a computer has failed that I’ve never even heard of."
