There are now possibilities in enterprise computing that have the potential to solve mainstream problems and become widely adopted. These "Emerging Compute Models" are creating a lot of buzz, but also a lot of confusion in the IT community. That's why this video podcast focuses on Intel's Emerging Compute Model Forum. Jason Davidson, technical evangelist for the forum, says IT shops are experimenting with new ways to deliver applications and operating systems, but there's no consensus on the best model, or models, to use.

In this podcast, Davidson and his colleagues Mike Ferron-Jones, marketing manager for Intel's Emerging Compute Models program, and Chuck Brown, who directs the program, lay out the basic questions IT managers need to ask before choosing new compute models, discuss some of the pros and cons of different models, and preview some Intel and industry developments in the ECM space.

On February 12, I was at a Intel team event in Hillsboro, Oregon. I was able to snag a few minutes with Ketan Sampat, Marianne Jackson, and Arjun Batra to do video interviews about the Intel streamed computing initiative.

Here is my video interview with Ketan Sampat. He gives an overview of the recent events in the industry that have been contributing to Intel forming the streamed computing initiative, and in turn form the Emerging Compute Model Forum community. It runs just over 1 minute.

Next, I was able get Arjun Batra behind the camera to invite you to attend one of our upcoming application & desktop virtualization forums. Follow this link if you would like to register for one of these events. It runs around 3 minutes.

Also, I was able to sit down with Marianne Jackson, who talked about some of the various events, activities, and products that Intel has planned for 2008. It runs around a minute and a half.
