Egenera Changes CEOs Again
By Maureen O'Gara
kennyo wrote: Actually, Egenera's CEO is staying on as Board chairman. As the company transitions to be a multi-platform player, the feeling is to have management who are experts about software, the converged infrastructure market, and familiar with the players in the space. Ergo the new CEO, and ergo the new levels of backing from investors. The company is still hiring in its field and OEM spaces, and in conversations with multiple IHV partners.

Cloud Computing Journal Continues To Publish World's Best Cloud Analysts
Tracking 24x7 the Cloud paradigm of massively scalable IT resources and capabilities delivered as a service using the Internet

By: Jeremy Geelan
Oct. 18, 2009 11:00 AM

Only one publication in the world has been tracking Cloud Computing 24x7 since December 6, 2006, when we first mentioned the concept in an article speculating on the possibility of a Web phone being a possible candidate for something that could be run in the Cloud.

Since then worldwide interest in the Cloud paradigm of massively scalable IT resources and capabilities delivered as a service using Internet technologies has been mushrooming at a breakneck pace.

Here's a - very brief - glimpse at some of the articles published and blogs syndicated in just in the past couple of days...
