  2. Looking forward to Jonathan Heiliger (VP Tech Ops, Facebook) fireside at #structure09, his keynote at #velocityconf was well-received.
  3. @EveD Yeah, @xsyn is such an annoying fanboy sometimes. (Actually, I think I may be to blame for contracting his previous nick to xsyn)
  4. Regulatory "certification of public cloud may become easier than rolling your own" -- Greg Papadopoulos, CTO R&D, Sun #structure09

  9. "New resource models driven by increasing competition and increasing consumer power" -- Werner Vogels #structure09
  10. @littleidea Ouch. You mean all those "enterprise architects" that delivered little value in the last decade were just too early to party?
  11. Joseph Tobolski: "Enterprise software licensing is a barrier to adoption of enterprise use of cloud" #structure09
  12. Joseph Tobolski: To prevent depts going "off reservation", enterprise IT needs to deliver similar flexibility to their org. #structure09

  14. Cloud ready for enterprise? Other way around: "Not many enterprise applications are ready for the cloud." -- Joseph Tobolski #structure09
  15. Huge props to Joseph Tobolski (Director of Cloud Computing, Accenture) for using "fungible" in terms of "cloud" services. #structure09
  16. ``Pragmatic thing to do is to drop the "cloud" word from your language.'' -- Bryan Doerr, CTO Savvis #structure09
  17. "Reason why we talk about clouds is that everyone can draw one". -- Russ Daniels, CTO EDS, HP #structure09
  18. @codevader Slicehost founder said today to much laughter that he was only speaking so he could get Rackspace to pay for his trip to Velocity
  19. Last weeks in San Francisco and at Velocity have highlighted just how tiny the problems .za "rockstars" are "solving" (and how poorly)
  20. Surprised by how common geographical and ops/dev team splits are challenges people are facing at #velocityconf
