We talk about how it's impossible to completely get away from hardware and infrastructure.Ballmer does an about face on LinuxLamp stackJames Serra on ways to load data into FabricEugene's benchmarking post, inspired by Jame's postAzCopy toolScott Hanselman on abstractionsWolf fence algorithm of troubleshooting
