Posted by gpaternoon in Computer

On October 29th I was interviewed by HP on multi-cloud during the 6th episode of “Two Protons and a Cloud“.

We went through how much cloud is being adopted in enterprises and what are the challenges. We explored what is multi-cloud and why enterprises are looking to multi-cloud and the advantages of embracing such architectures. Also covered security and my login.farm project to address identity management across multiple and hybrid clouds. Enjoy the video!
