VIRTUMANIA Episode 10: Rooters, Hummers, and the Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud

PostDateIcon May 5th, 2010 | PostAuthorIcon Author: Rich Brambley

In VIRTUMANIA episode 10 Theron Conrey and Simon Wardley join Marc and me for closer look at the open source Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud. The following is the podcast summary:

VIRTUMANIA Podcast Episode 10 – Rooters, Hummers, and the Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud Hosted by Rich Brambley (@rbrambley) of VMETC and Marc Farley (@3parfarley) of 3Par and StorageRap.com. Theron Conrey (@theronconrey http://www.conrey.org / vmunderground.com) joins us as we explore Ubuntu’s Enterprise Cloud with Simon Wardley (@swardley blog.gardeviance.org) of Canonical.  Simon explains how hypervisors are quickly becoming commodities, discusses his OSCON presentation on Why The Cloud Really Matters, reveals how Ubuntu’s partnership with Eucalyptus provides an open source alternative for IaaS, and compares Ubuntu’s cloud to the implementation and features of other popular commercial cloud infrastructures. Thanks to Greg Knieriemen (@knieriemen) for this Infosmack Production.

Off topic conversation this week includes a call to action for more steering wheel camera videos and how to order half of a lobster in Denmark!

      Simon's description of Cloud, what it delivers, and how it scales and is protected differently than datacenter virtual infrastructure is so spot on. That commodity horizontal provisioning that is used for cloud services is exactly why I have such a problem with (nearly) everyone's description of Private Cloud. I hate the term for several reasons but the bottom line is that people need to understand that building deliverable services on Virtual Infrastructure (while a very good thing to do) is not the same thing as building Cloud infrastructure. Elements are based on like technologies but at opposite ends of the implementation spectrum.

      Anyways, great discussion :)

      Chris,

      I have to say that researching UEC and Simon in preparation for this episode
      was a refreshing experience. I don't commit personally/mentally to any one
      of the “67 definitions” on Cloud Computing, but this discussion definitely
      was like clearing a slate and starting over.

      Thanks for listening!
