Script content adapted from VMware vSphere White Paper:

"In todays ubiquitously networked, highly automated,
technology-enabled economy, business capability has become
inextricably linked to IT capability. The hard truth, however, is
that IT inhibits as much as it enables the business. This seeming
contradiction is explained by the evolution of IT during the
past 50 years since the invention of the integrated circuit. This
evolution has been characterized by a tension between forward
momentum and the inertia of legacy systems. On the one
hand, there is constant break-neck innovation and the pursuit
of the next big thing. On the other hand, nothing, really, goes
away, and each new generation of computing is layered on top
of the old. Walk into any datacenter, and you will find an old
mainframe application chugging away probably with web
portals and Java-based front ends that were bolted on during
the dot-com boom of the 1990s. This pile up of geological layers
of technologies in the datacenter has resulted in overwhelming
complexity.
This problem this complexity is the fuel driving the rise of
virtualization over the past ten years and the current buzz about
cloud computing.
Delivering IT as a service in the private cloud across internal
and external clouds requires a new management model.
This new model must focus on the properties of that service,
rather than on the underlying infrastructure components. In
other words, the private cloud requires a service level-driven
management model that allows IT to manage what business
users and application owners understand the degree of
availability and security the service needs to enable business
users and application owners to easily request services, specify
desired service levels, and then consume those services without
understanding the intricacies of the underlying infrastructure.
At the same time, this new SLA-driven management model
must also translate the humanly comprehensible language into
machine instructions, so that IT can manage, dynamically and
with a high degree of automation, the underlying resources to
ensure the desired quality of service to the business."

  • Yeah - it did. Apple Motion mostly and assembled in FCP. It took a while for me to do the music in GarageBand for Twilight Zone that sounded enough like it without being a copy. I don't create music that often - usually just use royalty-free.

  • This looks like it took forever... how did you do it?
