Cloud backup for physical and virtual environments is becoming more and more important for SMBs. Gartner predicts that by 2012, Vendor Lock-in will surpass security as the biggest obstacle to cloud computing.

George Krump, lead analyst at Storage Switzerland, and Jamie Brenzel, founder of KineticD, discuss the advantages of avoiding vendor lock-in and keeping the ability to change your infrastructure over time as you see fit, and the long-term cost benefits as well.
