Why so many platforms for computing?
by Neeladri Rao on Jan 05, 2008 11:01 PM

The basic IT infrastructure needs only a processor, monitor (optional) and networking device to connect to the outside world. What is the need of so many options that does the same thing in a different way? The cost of migration from one platform to the other is the major component of the IT spendings. I hope to see a computing world which is highly standardized, high performing and has instant connectivity with all possible devices. The computing, which is the same thing can be offered as a service, which will minimize the IT spendings.
