RSAC 2010: Defining the Cloud, Film at 11

Again, I had an excellent, educational experience at the RSA Conference. I run into editors, bloggers and analysts I know from time to time at the show and always ask them the same question, anything new, exciting or cutting-edge? Invariably, I get yes and no responses but this year I think I heard more say they were excited about the fact that innovation is starting to creep back into the game. At around 11 Tuesday night, I ran into Richard Stiennon crossing Howard Street, he was with an MSP friend of his and during our brief conversation he mentioned a few of the more “interesting” vendors he had come across. I look forward to reading his complete thoughts on them when he publishes.

This year I had the chance to interview three of some of the world’s most well known players in the Cloud and Cloud security game. On camera, each were asked what is the Cloud and can it be secured? The answers were stunning, I got back a technical, business and metaphoric description — I’m pleased to be able to say that my hours of research have paid off as the definitions weren’t far from my own conclusions I had made prior to talking with them. Next week, I will be posting the video.
