I don't know how you feel about Microsoft, but we must admit they have many smart people on staff. Bob Muglia, Microsoft Divisional President has recently shared his thoughts on EDI, B2B and Cloud Computing in this article.
Here are some of his most interesting comments he made on the value of cloud computing.
"The other class that I think is really interesting is anything that involves working in partnership with others: supply chain sorts of applications, business-to-business, Electronic Data Interchange, those sorts of classes of applications in which you need to connect multiple organizations, and you need to deal with authentication, and you need to deal with network connectivity. "
This sounds like SAP's Business Network Transformation strategy and their views on simplifying EDI and B2B via SAP Netweaver PI and cloud computing through EDI managed services provider partners.
