Last month the Software and Information Industry Association picked winners of its annual CODiE awards from the main categories of business software, digital content and education. Nearing their 50th anniversary the CODiE's are the industry's only peer-reviewed awards program where live demos and trail access are mandatory. This year, 119 finalists were selected from 25 sub-categories, with the highest number of nominations shooting for Best Cloud Application/Service.  A three-way tie was announced for Best Cloud App, going to Google Apps for Government, Keynote System's Cloud Application Perspective, and Scribe Software's Scribe Online.

The Cloud Awards

Another judging body is The Cloud Awards, which honored StrikeIron of Cary, North Carolina with “Cloud Computing Company of the year 2012.” Strikelron struck gold, since it as well won in the best infrastructure category and was a runner-up for "Web services excellence."
