Today we launch Clouded II, a documentary film produced in association with Hewlett Packard Enterprise, that has taken us across the globe to uncover the true cost of cloud. In the last 12 months, we have endeavoured to unpick the misconceptions, the myths and the trends hitting the media. From repatriation, spiralling costs and misspent promises, to the consumption of the world's resources. Clouded II is a honest, balanced and frank look at the cloud landscape - it's time to pull back the curtain. Stream Clouded II now on https://www.clouded.tv/ Enjoy.
