Cloud Computing – Azure event in Chicago

On Monday, I had the unique opportunity of presenting Azure along with Dave Chappell to an audience in Chicago. Though I had done similar sessions at at least 25 different forums in the last few months, this was unique from a few perspectives. First, my co presenter Dave Chappell is an industry luminary who experience spans multiple industry shifts. It was great to sit down with Dave after the event and talk to him about how we saw the Cloud Computing industry evolving and the various imperatives from technology to economics to the various vendors.


Among the many topics we discussed , we talked in detail about the following:
1. Where is Cloud Computing in the maturity lifecycle ?
2. What are the some of the parallels to cloud computing ?
3. CXO talking points for Cloud Computing
4. TCO model for the cloud



Each of the above warrants a separate blog post by itself and I will do so in the upcoming days.

After the session we also recorded a podcast which should be live on http://thirstydeveloper.com/
