Disruptive Technologies: Virtualization and The Cloud
October 13, 2009 by Todd Mitchell, GM Dedicated Servers & Global Services in Tech Stuff, The Planet
If you weren’t able to attend the cPanel Conference 2009 last week in Houston, you missed out on a great show. With all the networking events, educational sessions and vendor booths to visit, it was pretty tough to keep up as a participant, so the cPanel team deserves a high-five or two —physical or virtual — for having everything so well prepared.
As you may have heard, I led a session about “Disruptive Technologies: The Road from Disruptive to Sustaining.” Instead of copying the bullet points from my presentation into this blog post, we recorded the whole session on a Flip MinoHD. If you’ve got a little time and you’re interested to hear my take on the effects of the Cloud and Virtualization on hosting, go grab a bag of popcorn, turn up your computer speakers, sit back and enjoy:
I opened the floor for Q&A in the session and for additional follow-up after the session after we ran out of time, so I want to do the same for you: When you watch the video, if you’ve got any questions, please post them in a comment below and I’ll be happy to respond.

Sorry about the jittery camerawork… We took the Flip right out of the box to record this, and it turns out a tripod would have been helpful. The content of the session was good enough to overlook the quality of the recording.

No need to apologize Kevin. Watching the video is much better than reading the text in bullet points.
