Intel Conversations in the Cloud What Next: Untangle Your Cloud Costs With Cloud Cost Intelligence

You can now keep up with the latest cloud computing developments whenever you have time. It’s easy to connect with cloud providers, software developers, and executives on social media.

While reading about their exploits is interesting, hearing them deliver unscripted ideas, solutions, and experiences may be even more engaging.

Subscribe to the following cloud podcasts to learn everything, from cloud computing best practices to cost optimization tips.

1. Cloud Atlas

cloud atlas

Biologically speaking, humans are a terrestrial species. But in terms of how we live, work, learn, and play, we’re really a cloud-native species. The cloud revolutionized human life. But outside the tech community, people have a limited understanding of what the cloud is.

In Cloud Atlas, CloudZero demystifies the cloud — including the story of the cloud, from prehistoric times (i.e., the 1990s) to the present day, where it came from, what it enabled, and how universally it’s used on a day-to-day, hour-to-hour, moment-to-moment basis.

Cloud Atlas includes interviews and stories from Allan Vermeulen (proposed S3, led the team who built it), Matt Round (former director of Amazon’s Personalization Department), Andy Jassy (former AWS CEO, current Amazon CEO), and more! Check out the podcast here.
