I will admit to being a fan of Reclaim Hosting and have performed numerous experiments in Reclaim Cloud as I try to understand what cloud technology can do and what it takes to lead people through the process of deploying cloud services. In this post Jim Groom talks about a recent visit to Vanderbilt University, and at first it reads a bit like a trip report, but almost half way through we read Groom "taking yet another crack and trying to pull together a cogent discussions of cloud computing and the shift of computing resources to a utility model, the rise of next-generation applications beyond the LAMP stack, and the shift to container-based infrastructure," and that's where the post becomes valuable. We get a couple video clips from Stephen Fry and a couple of images and a useful link but what would have been really useful would have been the video and transcript of Groom's actual talk.
