Cloudscape podcast episode 9: September 2018

Welcome back to another episode of the Cloudscape podcast. In this episode, we are joined by Greg Baker who will be discussing AWS, and Warner Chaves who will be discussing Microsoft Azure. I recently released a special episode of Cloudscape that covered highlights from Google Next, and all of the recent major Google Cloud Platform announcements can be found there. On Cloudscape Podcast episode nine, Greg and Warner do a great job of running us through the latest news from AWS and Azure and discuss the implications of each. We hear from Greg about T3 Instances, Aurora, ELF and Lightsail. Warner fills us in on the Azure Security Center, SQL Data Warehouse, Management Groups and cost forecasting. We finish off the episode reminiscing about some of the different versions of Windows before chatting about this month’s productivity tip. Be sure to tune in for this and a lot more!
