Cloud computing can play a crucial role in simplifying the management of business and mission-critical applications. For instance, it can help the global manufacturing industry maintain integration among multiple plants to improve production. Similarly, the implementation of cloud platforms can help energy utilities simplify management of data reservoirs and analytics applications to gain deeper insights into energy usage patterns, demand- based load balancing, and grid analytics. The European retail industry has been fast to understand the advantages of migrating to the cloud.
