This sponsored podcast discussion centers on using cloud computing technologies and models to improve the test and development stages of applications' creation and refinement. One area of cloud computing that has really taken off and generated a lot of interest is the development test and performance proofing of applications -- all from an elastic cloud services fabric. The build and test basis of development have traditionally proven complex, expensive, and inefficient. Periodic bursts of demand on runtime and build resources are the norm. By using a cloud approach, the demand burst can be accommodated better through dynamic resources, pooling, and provisioning. We've seen this done internally for development projects and now we're starting to see it applied increasingly to external cloud resource providers like Amazon Web Services. Here to help explain the benefits of cloud models for development services and how to begin experimenting and leveraging external and internal clouds -- perhaps in combination -- for test resource demand and efficiency, are Martin Van Ryswyk, vice president of engineering at Electric Cloud, and Mike Maciag, CEO at Electric Cloud. The discussion is moderated by BriefingsDirect's Dana Gardner. View a full transcript of the discussion at http://briefingsdirect.blogspot.com/2009/08/cloud-computing-proves-natural-for.html.
