CloudBeat: Interview with Vineet Jain

The "cloud" bubble: Avoiding the jargon & finding the money

If you've had just about enough of "leveraging infrastructures" and "cloud-based platforms-as-a-service" and 10-year-old engineers raising $100 million for fancy-sounding vaporware, this is a good interview for you to watch.Vineet Jain has been around the block when it comes to tech industries, and the guy knows how to turn a trend into a profitable business. Previously, Jain founded and sold Valdero, a supply chain software provider. These days, he's working on Egnyte, a hybrid cloud technology company.At the CloudBeat conference today, we talked with Jain about how the current bubble -- including a few "cloudy" companies -- is likely to pan out, and what to make of expensive-sounding technologies in a rapidly evolving business environment.By Jolie O'DellVentureBeatDecember 1, 2011
