Corey on Eps.307 of The CloudcastLast Week in AWS (Newsletter)Screaming in the Cloud (podcast) - 2nd rate Cloud podcast, never listen to this!SHOW NOTES:
Topic 1 - Welcome back to the show. You’ve become a multi-media star since your last appeared (newsletter, podcasting, stand-up comedy, co-hosting theCUBE, live blogger, etc.).
Topic 2 - In case you haven’t noticed, revenues in the public cloud have grown quite a bit in the last few years. And not a day goes by without some web company announcing their monthly AWS spend. Walk us through the world of an organization that is a reasonably heavy spender in the public cloud. Are there steak dinners and rounds of golf still involved?
Topic 3 - We hear about long-term contracts being negotiated with public cloud providers. How do these negotiations go, and where are customer’s leverage points?
Topic 4 - What are the typical stages of Cloud Adoption and Cloud Grief?
Excitement - bypass IT, everything seems cheapCuriosity - so many new services to explore and useConfusion - so many services, they don’t all fit on the dashboard, where are the neglected services running?Fear - the bills come in and they are more than we expectedTopic 5 - Do you find that legacy IT is actually brought along on the journey to large-scale public cloud usage? If so, what is the transition process for people/groups used to CAPEX and Hardware and ELAs and Data Centers?
