23. Gartner Highlights | Cloud Myths
Myth 1: Cloud Is Always About Money
While prices are dropping, especially for infrastructure as a service (IaaS), not all cloud service pricing
is coming down (for example, most software as a service [SaaS]). Assuming that the cloud always
saves money can lead to career-limiting promises. Saving money may end up one of the benefits, but
it should not be taken for granted.
Myth 6: Cloud Is Less Secure Than On-Premises Capabilities
Cloud computing is perceived as less secure. This is more of a trust issue than based on any
reasonable analysis of actual security capabilities. To date, there have been very few security
breaches in the public cloud — most breaches continue to involve on-premises data center
environments. While cloud providers should have to demonstrate their capabilities, once they have
done so there is no reason to believe their offerings cannot be secure.
