And much of the DC innovation has not come from traditional IT or even
outsourcers like IBM or HP, but from cloud service providers like Google,
Microsoft and amazon.
Josh Greenhorn, at the outsourcing firm Terremark is bringing these new-age DC
design principles and concepts to a new home he is building.
Check out his column on how he is doing it in the guest series "Technology
and My Hobby"
Definitely, his Cloud 9!
