The document discusses three communities - drivers, IT providers, and non-believers - in relation to cloud computing and outlines Apptis' approach. The drivers see cloud computing as transformative and timely due to budget constraints. IT providers' business models will change and start-ups are entering the market. Non-believers think it is hype. Apptis utilizes cloud computing internally, developed a cloud computing lifecycle methodology, invests in training, and ensures solutions are proven, trusted, and secured.
