IaaS provider positioning & Gartner Magic Quadrant (my-inner-voice.blogspot.com)

I very much enjoyed this post. Personally I don't particularly rate Gartner's 'Magic Quadrant' stuff but this non-Gartner blog post was a useful read for gaining a better understanding of what some of the real differences are between different IaaS providers.

I'd say for Amazon having so much 'completeness of vision' they are pretty low on the ability to execute on Gartner's crappy chart.

Seriously, AWS is crushing it: http://venturebeat.com/2010/08/03/amazon-web-services-genera...
