Friends don't let friends take risks on Cloud - CTO 023




The CTO Advisor show

Summary: Friends don't let friends take unnecessary risks on Cloud service providers. In the search for the best combination of technology and service an organization can waste a good amount of time trying out various cloud services. In this week's podcast I talk with Switches EVP of Evangelism, Mark Thiele. Mark gives an overview of the difference between Cloud Exchanges and Cloud Brokers and provides the high-level benefits of a cloud exchange. Mark describes how Switch's ability to offer high-speed/low latency connectivity virtually on demand provides value over traditional Co-Location providers.
