Found an interesting article regarding a study on cloud computing as it relates to the role of IT (Cloud computing elevating the role of IT: study). Its interesting that 70% of respondents believe that CIO's and senior IT staff will have a business background as opposed to a technology background in the future. Will we see a movement of power users in IT as oppose to hard core programmers? I still think we'll have programmers, but I agree with the article in that their role will be more of managing service providers than providing customize application features. This sounds like SharePoint Online to me...Former pprogrammers are now SharePoint administrators on business end, mainly acting in the help desk role to contact Microsoft when an application goes down and little programming opportunities (Sandbox Solutions) and Power Users as content developers using SharePoint Designer or a web browser to deploying applications to the business. Just my opinion. What's your thoughts?
