The narrative that hardware does not matter in the cloud is driven chiefly by the growing importance of software. In this Tech Field Day Showcase, presented to you by Intel, Alastair Cooke, cloud provider course teacher and co-author of Digital Infrastructure at Datacenter Scale zooms into this perception to provide an understanding of what created it in the first place and the truth of it. Asking what’s more important – the hardware or the software – is like the chicken or egg paradox. But the reality is, software that occupies the centerstage needs the hardware to exist. Without hardware, innovation at software level is not possible.
