IBM's role in the exercise is also likely to be questioned - it was paid at least AU$9.6m to design and implement the eCensus solution.

<sarcasm>This has to be a great ad for IBM's cloud services... Not able to scale quickly. Not able to handle DDOS. </sarcasm>

I thought these were some of the primary reasons cited by the Cloud sales people as the benefit of Cloud services over in-house.
