Vienna, Va. – June 27, 2012 – Cetrom Information Technology, Inc. (Cetrom), a Cloud Computing pioneer and leading provider of custom Cloud solutions for global SMBs, ranked 30th among the world’s top 100 cloud service providers (CSPs), according to Nine Lives Media’s second-annual Talkin’ Cloud 100 report. The top 100 CSPs generated more than $2.3 billion in combined cloud services revenues for 2011, up nearly 46 percent from 2010, according to the Talkin’ Cloud 100 report— now available at http://www.talkincloud.com/tc100/. This year’s Talkin’ Cloud 100 report (formerly the Talkin’ Cloud 50) has been expanded to include:

  • Cloud service providers – companies that offer IaaS, PaaS and/or SaaS
  • Cloud aggregators – companies that offer online marketplaces for sourcing cloud applications, platforms and/or infrastructure
  • Cloud brokers – companies that recommend a range of cloud applications for customers
  • Cloud integrators – companies that link multiple cloud services into a customer solution
