This is very much how we at 10gen see things shaping up as well. One key component that I see us being able to leverage as Platform providers is interoperability. Do you see an advantage to developing standards for platform / multi layer engagement? Regards, Shane Hi Sam,

My take was to separate truth from hype.

The feedback was overwhelming! So much so that we followed it up with an article and a copy of the presentation:

As Cloud Computing gains buzz, it is important for us to remember what it really is and—perhaps more importantly—what it really isn’t.

Be well,
