Editor?s Note: Alexander Haislip is a marketing executive with cloud-based server automation startup ScaleXtreme and the author of Essentials of Venture Capital. Follow him on Twitter @ahaislip. We?re at a technological inflection point, a major branch of computing is splitting off and everyone from the sysadmin to the CEO is wondering what it will mean. The usual cabal of vocal technologists isn?t helping the situation. The chatterboxes maintain a constant chant of change: ?Cloud, Cloud, Cloud!? Yet they fail to contextualize it in the overall IT architecture. They imagine a bright future where all servers will hum along in ultra-efficient datacenters (preferably solar powered) diligently tended to by the infrastructure-as-a-service providers. Why would you ever host your own server?norman reedus sears office max office max cyber monday deals 2011 cyber monday deals 2011 real housewives of atlanta
