Drew and James open with a brief chat about the week in review, a little bit about Microsoft naming, as well as some of the side projects they are working on.

The guest this week is Matt Carolan from Softchoice, an experienced group of experts that offers deep expertise and design for the implementation of advanced IT and cloud solutions.

If you are interested in cloud computing, Azure, AWS, and all things server related, then Matt is your man. He is also the founder and organizer of the Vancouver PUG (public cloud user group) meetup.
