Here is the latest in my Opinionated Infrastructure video series, sponsored by IBM PureSystems. As ever, I got straight for the metaphor, and even by my standards, the shot shot is gonzo. Legacy isn’t bad, hybrid is good, and design is everything in making different modes of cloud work together. The location? Same as Luther of course… Shoreditch.
If you’ve been following, the way this works is to riff on stuff for Opinionated Infrastructure, which then flags my live PureChat series of GoogleHangouts, where industry luminaries talk to the trends. The next PureChat is September 12, at 5pm EST, and we’ll be looking at Hadoop.
