New Problems In The CloudRob May, CEO Backupify.com
All Your Data Is Going To the Cloud
“The solution to every problem is another problem.”
- Goethe
Problem #1 – Vendor Control
• Data is under vendor control, not yours– How do governments comply with public records

requirements for cloud data?
Problem #2 - Access
• Access and Portability• API restrictions• How do you move your data to a new service?• How do you get your data out?
“Facebook is a data dead end” - Google
