For the most part I stay away from articles or links about cloud computing -- it's just too crowded right now and I have too much to read, let alone write about. I have, however run across several good links lately that I wanted to share:
Many sites and blogs have coverered the move from Microsoft to Digital Realty Trust for Michael Manos. I thought the May 5th post on his blog - Forecast Cloudy with Continued Enterprise - was particularly good. The beginning reminded me of reading Nicholas Carr's The Big Switch: an excellent book. I think Digital Realty Trust will be an excellent fit for Michael and thank him for generously sharing his wisdom in his blog.
Also on Cinco de Mayo was a post from Sam Johnston on "Is OCCI the HTTP of Cloud Computing?" OCCI is the OGF's Open Cloud Computing Interface - who provides the interface to Cloud Infrastructure as a Service. Has anyone asked Tim Berners-Lee about this yet?
Apparently Akamai, formerly a Content Delivery Network company, is now a Cloud Provider. Ummm... ok
Google had a couple of notes on cloud computing recently. Co-founder Sergey Brin posted the 2008 Founders' Letter on the Google blog, and discussed cloud computing. CEO Eric Schmidt, at a press event, dismissed Android questions in favor of talking about the cloud, models and strategies.
Forrester Research recognized 3Tera's Applogic as the leading "cloud infrastructure software offering available today".
