Dec. 16, 2008 06:33 PM Reads: 682 | By Alan Williamson  The biggest problem we have is trying to figure out what to leave out, because we simply have too much to present.

Nov. 12, 2008 09:00 PM Reads: 907 | By Alan Williamson  The line between what is considered a cloud and what is paramount to hosting is a blurry line at the best of times. What qualifies a companies offering as a cloud based product offering? That is a question that is continually debated in the cloud circles and no one has really yet to of... Nov. 11, 2008 10:00 PM Reads: 720 | By Alan Williamson  If you were to believe the hype from the media and certain so called industry experts, you would be forgiven for thinking that cloud computing is the second coming.

Oct. 30, 2008 12:00 PM Reads: 1,104 | By Alan Williamson  Amazon made a special announcement today that they have officially thrown off their "beta" tag and are in full production. What does it mean? Well to the users of their web services absolutely nothing. It will be business as usual, except now, you know it comes with an SLA. Amazon are ... Oct. 27, 2008 01:26 PM Reads: 532 | By Alan Williamson  Everywhere you look, someone somewhere is talking about clouds. Cloud this, cloud that, what on earth is all this fuss about?

Oct. 17, 2008 07:00 PM Reads: 1,608 | By Alan Williamson  Cloud computing is an opportunity for businesses to implement low-cost, low-power and high-efficiency systems to deliver scalable infrastructure.

Jul. 26, 2008 10:15 AM Reads: 2,361 | By Alan Williamson  For many years, Java and web developers alike have had to explain to the unwitting that JavaScript had absolutely nothing to do with Java. It was one of the great marketing gaffes of the mid-90s. They were no more alike than chalk and cheese. But in the last six months, I have had to l...
