One of my favorite presenters is a gentleman named David Chappell, an independent industry speaker & technology advisor around current trends that are of importance to Enterprise companies.
He is especially well-versed on Cloud technologies and has done thorough analysis of all the major players including Amazon, Microsoft, Google, etc.
He recently did a Microsoft Azure presentation at the Cloud Expo and graciously published his slides for public consumption. This provides folks with an independent 3rd party view on Microsoft’s offering in the PaaS & IaaS space… but presented without the gratuitous “marketing” and in a manner that is easily digestible.
I highly encourage folks to take advantage of the opportunity to download David’s slides. They’re really good.
