Installing a complex set of systems on third-party hardware can be a brutal challenge. For that reason we can expect most cloud computing efforts to focus on:
A) new software development projects.
B) bettering the options for old software.
C) improving quality of existing code.
D) migrating to a set of robust and well-defined standards.
E) the development of large pools of in-house specially suited hardware.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Focusing on new software development projects allows for the creation of software specifically designed for cloud computing, rather than trying to retrofit existing software onto third-party hardware.

Answer: D 
 Migrating to a set of robust and well-defined standards allows for easier implementation and maintenance of cloud computing systems, reducing the complexity of the installation process on third-party hardware.
