Hardware Still Has to Matter
Ned Bellavance took a special interest in Alastair’s Cooke point of view at the most recent Intel Tech Field Day Showcase where he focused on the relevance to hardware today. People tend to think of cloud as an abstracting hardware, but Ned believes quite the opposite. He says that we should embrace the public cloud so the more and varied hardware will now be closer to the consumer to help them transform their application.
