    At Microsoft’s Worldwide Partner Conference in Washington DC today, the company took the wraps off a new “hybrid” on premise/cloud-based server platform for small business. Windows Server Code Name “Aurora” combines a tailored version of Microsoft’s Windows Server 2008 R2 with connection to cloud-hosted enterprise software (for example Exchange and SharePoint) subscriptions for a monthly fee.

    I read all that and I didn't see anything about security. This might be a good read for those thinking about a cloud. http://www.computerweekly.com
    on that site there is a lot of information on cloud computing and security.

    I'm definitely looking forward to this, especially if I can install it on my current HP MediaSmart EX490. I was thinking of setting up a second small PC to act as a domain controller, but this could possibly combine the best of both worlds.
