Same issue, certification will be a bitch. I think ITAR has a lot more visibility in millions of dollars of fines.

Been doing cloud since 2006 or even early when it was called ASP's in 96. Also doing large private clouds with rapid provisioning, still very complicated to set up, have 2 large engagements underway, one DoD the other Agency.
It's more complicated than you think it is, it's not all pre-built. You gotta get to it (the cloud) and requires (or should) more security than private cloud.
Also you have to transition stuff (apps, data, users, management)
Nice buzz word but totally bogus when it comes to some of the implied benefits unless done right.

Improved network latency and stability is allowing better private cloud performance, but the commercialization of public Cloud apps and increasingly open applications is the game changer we're just getting into. For the heavier applications, yes, it's still a lot of hype, but already CIO's are starting to drink the Kool Aid.
Next time you're over for beers we should draft a few talking points I can use to help with these conversations. I've got the high-level pitch but you can give me some specifics.
