Episode 1 - Introduction to Windows Azure

Pilot episode where Cale Teeter & Sujit D'Mello discuss the basics of the Cloud. In 10 minutes (OK, it took us about 22 minutes!), they try to answer the questions:

• What is the cloud?
• The differences between Public and Private cloud.
• The competitive landscape.
• The basics about Windows Azure.
• How do you get an account on Azure?
• What works well in the cloud (and more importantly what does not).
