As soon as I finished yesterday’s blog entry, I became aware of a posting by Amazon’s CTO, Werner Vogels, where he announces that Microsoft’s Windows Server is available on Amazon EC2. According to Vogels: “we can now run the majority of popular software systems in the cloud”.

With 20-20 hindsight, the benefit of quality codecs is now obvious, and it will drive very quick adoption of Windows in the Cloud. Content apparently is still king and thus the conduit that delivers it is a critical component. Turns out that Microsoft does have an unfair advantage in the Cloud space.
