No offence, but I also don't get too excited about the idea of my/customers data pending in some unknown place with unknown people having potential control over it. Besides, it's risky to rely on a working internet connection all the time for work. There are too many things that can go wrong, like in all complex systems. How about troubleshooting/workarounds if something hangs? And there can hang a lot in any complex 3d application. What if you forget to pay your bills? What about being forced for whatever upgrades? Will you get cut off the chance to continue work?

This does not mean the Exocortex guys are not idealistic, but you cannot be sure what will happen in the more distant future, when you have settled comfy in that system and got dependant on it.

Cloud is evil... it means total control. Clever business idea for managers it might sound, but I for my part dislike it.

My kind of old-schoolish opinion...

This claraio example pushes me to point out that it would still
be nice to be sure that every workfile or content stays inside the
private IP address space at any given time. At all times.

Personally, I simply don´t like the idea of effectively handing over
the absolute control over my intellectual property to any kind of remote
or even unknown entity/authority that may have completely divergent
interests to my own without even needing to state so in advance.

Clouds are happily described as giving you that air of freedom but
handing over data to a cloud effectively just means handing over your
data to someone else.

I don´t see why I would want to do that.

It would be nice if Claraio is made to run self-contained in a private network
without any strings attached.

Cheers,

But all these new (internet based) tools makes it very interesting for what lies ahead.
