"ERP Systems in the Cloud"
There has been significant media attention and hype about the potential of cloud technologies. ERP Systems vendors are offering cloud based versions of ERP Systems. SalesForce, Workday and other vendors have developed ERP solutions that are offered solely in the Cloud, while SAP and others have Cloud versions of their existing ERP systems or "bolt on" solutions with additional functionality that is located in the Cloud.
