Cloud Cafe #37 Elastra With Stu Charlton
By John | August 14, 2009
In this podcast I had the opportunity to talk to Stuart Charlton of Elsatra. Stuart is the lead product architect for Elastra Corporation. He is one of the pioneers helping to define this new area called “Cloud Brokers”. In this podcast he was able to help define this new space for me as well as tell me what Elastra is up to right now. Here are some of the topic we discussed.
- What is Elsatra Up To?
- Overview of a Cloudbroker
- Applications in the clouds
- VPDC
- DMTF/OVF
- Puppet and Chef
- Elsatra’s Config Engine and Architecture
I wanted to add a special thanks to Florence Neal for the artwork and Mike Colletti for the music. If you find any of their works interesting, please feel free to link their sites and contact them directly.
