NetworkWorld: IBM has released the results of a new survey which finds that only 13 percent of enterprises have embraced cloud computing in a substantial way. However, the same report predicts that 41 percent of enterprises will substantially move to the cloud within three years.

Currently, 72 percent of the 572 executives surveyed said that they had been involved with the cloud in some way, including piloting a cloud project. But within three years, 90 percent of respondents expected to have at least minimal involvement with cloud computing.
