Synopsis

  We were "live to tape" (as Adam says) from HP's Master the Cloud event in Calgary.  As we wrap up the road tour in the frozen city of Calgary I had the pleasure of sitting down with a comedian and celebrity, a technical expert on virtualization from HP, and the manager of Intel's advanced server technologies team.  This was a wild, off-the-rails discussion and you can really tell we were just having a good time and excited to wrap up the tour.  Great topics of discussion...

Topics covered in this episode include...

• Hypervisors and their value to cloud computing, virtualization and hacking
• Why are hypervisors critical to cloud computing?
• Will Intel build a hypervisor into the silicone?
• How robust driver stacks keep hypervisors 'safe' on the software level...
• "Raising the bar" on security (analogies of a department store)
• Virtualization of compute resources & BYOD ...slightly off the rails
• Federation of identities, and applied to social media
