"you have no idea who is managing the computers with your information. You have no idea where they are. You have no idea what protections may or may not be in place to make sure your information is not stolen or disclosed or that it does not accidentally disappear." - http://articles.cnn.com/2010-03-12/tech/cloud.computing.security_1_comp…

Cloud computing is virtualization done by others, on a server at a foreign country. I still prefer having control on my virtualization for sensitive data.

I can foresee bright future for cloud computing (virtualization by an external server) as well as for virtualization by your own IT department, both are good but not the same.

For scheduling operations cloud service can be considered.
