People make a lot of jokes about “herding cats,” and when I decided to video a group of our vWire developers for them to talk about their favorite vWire features, I worried it would be hard to get what are often considered the most introverted demographic in the world in front of a camera.

Not so with these guys, however. They were eager and happy to talk about the product they had spent the last several months pouring their hearts and souls into. So far, I’ve recorded three, and the first is live here: http://community.vwire.com/message/1671#1671. In this video, lead vWire developer Andrew Wagner talks about his experience with Tripwire, and how he leveraged what he knew about monitoring infrastructure from a compliance and security perspective, and how he applied this knowledge to managing virtual infrastructure in vWire. He gives a brief introduction and a short demo of what vWire monitors (which, by the way, is extraordinarily comprehensive compared to what and how virtual infrastructure is typically monitored).

Anyway, check it out, and drop Andrew a line in the community about his fantastic performance in this short (less than ten minutes) video.
