[ale] IT leaders trust microsoft more than google

[scott]

as for someone stealing your secrets (trade secrets, secret recipe to  
the brownies, whatever) will depend on how you put the data in the  
cloud.  Encrypted data is harder to steal (not saying impossible but  
much harder) than plain-old data.

now for uptime/resiliency and such you have to look at the parties'  
track records.

everyone's mileage will vary.
