  1. @randybias today perhaps. I suspect it would the AWS devs all of one weekend to implement a vCloud API endpoint 9:45 AM Sep 15th from twhirl in reply to randybias
  2. @jamesurquhart by boundary, do you just mean network? with AWS, the only real difference between normal EC2 and VPC is the network 1:54 PM Sep 14th from twhirl in reply to jamesurquhart
  3. @samj @jamesurquhart so then what's the difference between a private cloud and a virtual private cloud? what's being virtualized? 1:44 PM Sep 14th from twhirl in reply to samj
  4. @samj the real thing that drives openness is pain caused by un-openness and the $$$ it eats up. may not be enough cloud pain today 9:35 AM Sep 14th from twhirl in reply to samj
  5. @samj what about patents and trademarks with OVF? seems likely a DMTF version of vCloud will have similar rights granted 9:20 AM Sep 14th from twhirl in reply to samj
  6. @Beaker and what was the consensus? I'd assume real-time updates to a registry would be required to enable cloud brokering 11:11 AM Sep 8th from twhirl in reply to Beaker
  7. @davegraham you could. the vCloud directory could point to a OAuth endpoint or something else that could use SAML for auth 10:41 AM Sep 8th from twhirl in reply to davegraham
  8. @davegraham right, and you'd also need cost, performance and SLA info on what the vCloud provider is offering. all missing today 10:30 AM Sep 8th from twhirl in reply to davegraham
  9. @davegraham my idea: VMware could host a UDDI or similar public registry of vCloud providers. Good meeting you at VMworld, btw 10:17 AM Sep 8th from twhirl in reply to davegraham
  10. a vCloud issue I'd like to see addressed is discovery: with hundreds of vCloud providers, how does a tool like #RightScale work? 10:03 AM Sep 8th from twhirl
  11. @randybias you could say the same of OVF. seems like the current 0.8 API draft was rushed for VMworld, but they do want to improve it. 9:57 AM Sep 8th from twhirl in reply to randybias
  12. @randybias great post on vCloud ( http://is.gd/32ucK ) I'm curious what specific "serious warts" you see with the vCloud API? 9:37 AM Sep 8th from twhirl
  13. I'm going to be in SFO next week at VMworld with my employer, SunGard. I'll be around the vCloud area. Stop by and say hi if you're around. 9:08 AM Aug 28th from twhirl
  14. I hate these unsubscribe forms that make you log in, uncheck a dozen boxes, then double check that you really really want to unsubscribe 7:57 AM Aug 27th from twhirl
  15. Amazon's VPC is very cool. I wonder what in their network setup prevented internet access to VPC instances in this release. Thoughts? 6:21 AM Aug 27th from twhirl
  16. @randybias exactly, you could get it for a great price : ) 10:33 PM Apr 24th from twhirl in reply to randybias
  17. @randybias you guys should offer to buy the business unit from Oracle. 10:30 PM Apr 24th from twhirl in reply to randybias
  18. VMWare vSphere 4 now supports clusters of up to 32 physical servers... that's up from... wait for it... 32 in ESX 3.5 http://is.gd/tN8j 7:50 PM Apr 21st from twhirl
  19. Getting ready to do panel discussion on Enterprise Cloud Adoption for Cloud Slam 09: http://is.gd/tvh1 10:38 AM Apr 20th from twhirl
  20. @samj http://is.gd/pUjm with just 2 members in the CCA google group, I doubt anything too sinister is happening just yet. 10:00 AM Mar 31st from twhirl in reply to samj
