Si bien esta encuesta tambi n demuestra la falta de correspondencia entre el nivel general de aceptaci n de cuanto supone la nube y la realidad basada en pruebas s lidas, los clientes est n, no obstante, en busca de un s lido camino de transici n hacia la emisi n de la nube a medida que crezca hasta convertirse en una alternativa capaz y rentable .
