commissioned a <a title=\"Oracle's Report on the Cloud\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oracle.com\/webapps\/dialogue\/ns\/dlgwelcome.jsp?p_ext=Y&amp;p_dlg_id=13711079&amp;src=7598393&amp;Act=215\" target=\"_blank\">report from Dynamic Markets<\/a> to study the success with which the cloud is being deployed in the enterprise. \u00a0A key focus of the study was on how well businesses were able to integrate the various cloud application offerings that they&#8217;ve deployed. \u00a0Oracle, long a naysayer and critic of the cloud, seems to have changed of late, jumping into the <a title=\"Oracle and the Cloud\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oracle.com\/us\/solutions\/cloud\/managed-cloud-services\/overview\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\">cloud market with a number of new offerings<\/a>, but the bulk of this report&#8217;s contents echo some of Oracle&#8217;s early-on criticism, reflecting negatively on the cloud.<\/p>\n<p>The report concludes that &#8221; the adoption of cloud apps across the world is remarkably high and in all departments, but that integration problems are endemic&#8221;. \u00a0The report points out a number of ramifications resulting from\u00a0<strong>problems with their <\/strong><strong>cloud integration<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>54 percent<\/strong> of departments say that they&#8217;ve experienced staff downtime in the last six months<\/li>\n<li><strong>52 percent<\/strong> of organizations say that they&#8217;ve missed deadlines<\/li>\n<li><strong>83 percent<\/strong> say that cloud integration problems mean that they&#8217;re not able to realize the full benefits that cloud applications offer<\/li>\n<li><strong>75 percent<\/strong> felt that problems with cloud integration impacted their ability to innovate<\/li>\n<li><strong>50 percent<\/strong> of companies have abandoned the user of at least one department cloud app in the last three years because of cloud integration issues<\/li>\n<li><strong>68 percent<\/strong> of cloud adopters have attempted to integrate their cloud applications, but 55 percent of those projects have failed<\/li>\n<li><strong>42 percent
