Market research firm Forrester Research senior analyst James Kobielus in an article published recently introduced enterprise cloud computing explosive growth in applications, and introduces the application of cloud computing is causing the expansion around the existing policies and mechanisms for SOA governance some of the problems.
However, cloud computing is causing a number of IT professionals uncomfortable. IT professionals worried that cloud-based services may exceed the scope of SOA governance program. This problem is due to the increasing use of cloud computing providers to provide a very low price or free enterprise applications caused. This enterprise application, also known as "rogue application", is outside the control of the IT set up. Level found in many sectors, through the use of cloud computing resources they can not wait for the needs of data center space mission-critical business servers.

1. To create and publish the policy of using cloud computing resources. Do not reject the use of cloud computing. However, to focus on the development of this application easy to understand and implement the reasonable grounds.
2. In the use of cloud computing time, to ensure that use SOA methods. They are interrelated concepts.
3.IT cloud computing services departments should promote the evaluation and use, including application development and help advance based on cloud computing services.
