Description:

Up on the public cloud, sailing majestically over the data networking landscape, floats the Packet Pushers, looking serenely down upon physical infrastructure that has been completely abstracted away. Yes, here in the realm of computing consumption billed by the hour, we are utterly impervious to problems. All is beautiful and at peace. On those occasions where we start to fall through our cloud towards the physical realities beneath, a unicorn races by to catch us, maintaining our blissful tranquility. One such unicorn is Ravello, sponsoring today s show with a discussion of their networking and virtualization product that, among other things, makes public cloud easy to consume, on demand.
