What is the Cloud? Soft and Fluffy Edition - Computer Stuff They Didn't Teach You #10

[@BobbiCodes]

You have a rare gift of making things outstandingly accessible yet somehow without insulting the intelligence of the audience. There is a deep art to it that is rooted in true empathy and your work is greatly appreciated :)

[@nikfp]

Could not have said it better myself, so I quoted you in my comment instead. This is literally could not be more true.

[@zezeandjr4110]

Scott Hanselman, you'll always be an MVP in our eyes, great show, great info, keep it up..

[@vaibhavsharma1634]

Scott always speaks so gently,it seems he doesn't wanna wake up the wife and kids😂

[@ChristopherRucinski]

ASMR but asks to also smash that like

[@Netrole]

The bob ross of computer science

[@darz_k.]

but also sells fake vaccines for bill gates

[@enriquejpsa]

Clear explanation! It is good to point out that cloud is not just other people’s computers. It is also the software to manage all the computers. And the management of data centers all over the world. And having them all connected to seem as one.

[@dattaveerboda2405]

I'm in love with Scott Hanselman since I saw his intro on MVC 3, it's almost 9 years. I love the way you talk, present and make funny sounds in between :) I am loving this series soo much. I have shared it with lot of my friends. Please don't stop this sir.

[@ArnonDanon]

This is a realy nice way to explain what cloud is.i realy like that "this is a peace of azure in my house" moment 😀 this entire series should be thought in school. Now i have a cool reference to show my kids/parents what a server looks like.

[@Juanjuanzerojuan]

Wow! Very cool to see an actual slice of Azure!

[@TheMikuma]

I've been using Azure for quite a while, but I've never actually seen one let alone seeing someone take one apart. This was a very nice grounding video for me to be able to imagine the cloud better.

[@outerheaven01]

Ohh wow!! Thanks for sharing Scott! The azure stack server blew my mind. You even explained availability zones implicitly 👍. I'd love to take a tour around a datacenter.

[@shanselman]

Thanks for noticing the availability zones call out!

[@somannakalappa]

Scott !!! You truly have outdone yourself ... With this even an infant computer enthusiast like me gets it. Thanks for all this Uber class content

[@anivelate59]

This is the best educational hands on practical video that I have seen so far!! Great explanation, easy to digest the COMPLEX computer world.

[@j0zeft]

I'm lucky enough to have played with such hardware... I was too close to buying few used servers and a small rack , but the main issue that deterred me was the fact that these fans are LOUD! So my boss let me play as much as I want with the old, to be dumped servers. Made some awesome stuff, destroyed a few, and learned a lot!! Thanks Scott... now I can show people who never saw rack PCs why I like them!!

[@KaloyanDrenski]

Best episode so far! I envy you for all the gadgets you've got in your lab. Thanks a lot for doing this, Scott!

[@maximilianka1498]

Great video! I really appreciate this in-depths, hands-on showcase of what the cloud looks like ☁☁☁

[@MarcinGil]

Wow, that's a super lovely engineer's cave you've got Scott! I love it thousand times more than those "clean and super simple" setups you often see on the 'net as "purist" or "simplistic" ones. I love how easily and without unnecessary exaltation you speak about stuff. PS. I simply say "on prem" ;)

[@liva236muzika]

This was a nice intro. I am a visual person and it really helps to see stuff. It would make the lesson complete if you would show what the software running the cloud looks like. P.s. this was my first subscription ever. I finally understand what "ringing the bell" means.

[@BucketWheat]

My brother has met you several times, at Microsoft events. He was a "Major Nerd" at TI / Raytheon for a number of years, and was on the Beta Test Group ... He sent me your video, because HE is the NERD and I have trouble operating my cell-phone. LOL!! He works from home, now. And his office has 3 Big-Screen TVs hanging from the ceiling as 'monitors' and the room is about 10 degrees warmer than the rest of the house. I'm not sure if I am radio-active after being in there, or not. But he doesn't seem too badly damaged from working in there. And he actually enjoys the challenges of 'problem-solving' that composes most of what he does. {maybe he IS a bit "Affected" after all.} I live very near to the Atlanta CISCO location, and have taken High School kids on tours thru several of their buildings... and have seen the Server Rooms ... 8 or 9 foot high 'racks' of 'Units' about 4 to 6 inches thick, and probably hundreds of 'units' in one room. It has been probably 5 years since I have visited... and I would Love to go thru again, to see some of the changes and advancements.

[@pranayvasani]

This is brilliant Scott. Thanks for this series. It was so amazing to see the azure slice/stack that you showed, like you said, most of us work on the cloud but never get to see it 🙂 like how you showed. Thanks once again

[@AhmadRadi]

Thank you Scott! You're Amazing! (Your channel is the only channel that I have the notification bell enabled)

[@cw5948]

Really appreciated seeing the "Azure Slice." I write software that is run on Azure, so it was really cool for me to see what the hardware actually looks like that's hosting the software I write.

[@kingiburu2778]

Thank you Scott. I am slowly trying to understand what the cloud even is. Appreciate your lessons.

[@milimol2008]

You had me at the RPi stack, Scott! I started watching your videos this week to learn more about Docker, containers and the unpronounceable Kuberhumunahumuna. You’ve struck a chord with me (and probably other geeks as well). Keep making these great vignettes of knowledge!!

[@ghousek9784]

Scott, This series "Computer Stuff They Didn't Teach You" is awesome! I always click like before watching the complete video. Love from planet Earth!

[@johannhernandezarmenteros6292]

Scott, thanks one more time for this kind of videos. I loved the part when you shown the RPIs because a friend and I were doing some experiments with that too.

[@kushalbhabra]

Love how you simplify complex topics ! Awesome

[@TheNets]

Man... You are amazing... I'm so happy to know English and understand your videos. This series would change a lot my understanding of why study computers during my bachelor degree.

[@Netrole]

Anecdote on how the cloud came into existance from my university professor. Because people are shopping like mad during christmas time, amazon had to substantially upgrade their servers just for this short period of the year. The rest of the year these extra servers where standing around, not doing anything. So amazon started renting these servers to others, and started the amazon cloud like this. I think this also nicely ties in with "just someone elses computer"

[@patrickc.6183]

It is a very special episode Scott! Great video as always 😄!

[@KK-ts1pm]

Thanks! The wonderful youtube algo recommended you a month ago, and I've been binging on your older videos. Great work.

[@yusuflawal9987]

Loved this episode. Thanks for giving us a tour of Azure edge

[@bls512]

Now I'm craving raspberry pie 🥧 with a dollop of ice cream, thanks Scott.

[@vargonian]

Thank you so much for these, Scott. There is nothing quite like these on the internet and it's such a perfect way for me to learn new things.

[@RamblinggeekUk]

I like the windows logo on the 1u DELL server. That's my day job installing them :D

[@electr0nux]

So much value in a video. Keep it up Scott.👍

[@speakingfreely6770]

Scott: 16 gigs of ram is a lot. The world: We will come back to this video after five years to comment on this video. :)

[@zahirk]

Awesome explanation, loving this series, and looking forward to the future videos. P.S. - Your room tour video explaining everything you use and purpose would be awesome :)

[@sa-ma_7795]

A very special episode indeed Scott. I smashed that bell some while ago when I saw your "how to really use Word" series, which is where I belong really. Your techy stuff is way above my stations unfortunately ...

[@triantafyllosmylonas367]

Very good approach to the subject Cloud. I learned a lot, Thank you

[@amjadhamed6030]

Even the viewers with MSc's in this video related field can already benefit from scott's explanations. Suggest to put all purchased items links.

[@gadswez]

Never been this early! ty Mr. H for your efforts on this great playlist!

[@rider-284]

Another great one! As always pleasure listening to you👍

[@nikfp]

This is great! Your videos have a sneaky way of taking something I thought I knew about, and helping me actually understand it much better. The delivery is also world class, and I greatly appreciate that you don't have strong opinions on your topics, such as the best shell or best processor, etc. (Or at least you have the composure to leave your opinions out of these videos :P) I've been subscribed for a while and always smile when I see a notification of a new episode. Keep it up! your efforts are appreciated far beyond the dozens of dollars you reap from this endeavor! To quote the comment from @Bobby Towers, "You have a rare gift of making things outstandingly accessible yet somehow without insulting the intelligence of the audience. There is a deep art to it that is rooted in true empathy and your work is greatly appreciated :)" Couldn't have said it better myself.

[@ci7alex1]

Thank you Scott! Been following you since channel 9 videos. Most interesting ones

[@nathansherrard4111]

This was really cool to watch - being to able explain a lot of components and concepts just by what's lying around your office! In terms of "cloud", I might add some more emphasis on the self-provisioning / automation of services aspects (without the need for IT personnel to assist), since a lot of the info is also applicable to private data centers / colo facilities (e.g., scale, redundancy, etc.).

[@seetheworldcessnavr]

Wow! Serverbuilding for companies is my dad's job. Seen those "refridgerators" when I visitet him at construction buildings. Thanks for the video, Scott!

[@irf47]

Amazing demonstration with raspberry Pi 😎👍

[@gorudonu]

I'm many years in industry but I love the way you explain things, even if I know them. Couple of ideas for future videos: from logic gates to desktop PCs - how pc exactly work, data replication in databases (maybe databases in general)

[@ashwinchakravarthy4384]

Love the video! I wanna see a tour of this room with all the stuff! 🐱‍💻🐱‍🐉❤

[@TomRay74]

This was great Scott. Very well done. I appreciate your work. Thank you!

[@jeonghwanlee1986]

Thanks Scott!. This video (of course your other videos) is really informative. Hope more software geeks subscribe your channel!!

[@ArielErlijman]

you nailed it again! awesome. Keep going. Never tired of it.

[@Makumbi]

Oh my goodness. You have an azure stack edge!!! Wow. I am so jealous.

[@bitelogger]

Admirable time usage for other ti understand this topics!!!

[@jamesdietsch7868]

Love this series! Great work Scott!

[@jonathanholzmann]

Thanks! Brilliant as usual Scott! always a fan!

[@karansahani8860]

Thanks for sharing the details about cloud infrastructure. Liked it (Y)

[@nagasudhirpulla]

Not a lot of people opened Surface Duo on KZbin... Nice video by the way... Very explanatory for absolute beginners...

[@Dyallo1988]

Hey Scott! How about Computer Stuff They Didn't Teach You: CERTIFICATES? Where are they generated? How do I use them? How are they served to the browser? Where to I store them?

[@agamjotsingh7041]

Thanks a lot scott for this wonderful series. It would be great if you could take some video sessions on linux shell scripting and prerequisites and intro to machine learning

[@AndresPineda]

Amazing video Scott!

[@satyabratamohapatra3397]

Great Video.Thank you Scott !!

[@martineyles]

I expect that an azure data center is pretty loud. The fans in a single 1U server make a lot of noise! I've only been in a smallish server with maybe 20 racks at most.

[@23d1nis]

Wow this episode is a real treat 😊👌

[@terminatedthread794]

Loves from Turkey. Great work !

[@khalilaibrahim1278]

Amazing as always Scott, many thanks for making this video; all respect from Iraq!

[@canimbenim427]

I’m watching this video late in the night and have the impression to watch something R-rated 😜. Like a guilty guilty pleasure. I’m a developer but man I love hardware

[@speakingfreely6770]

The world: we need more ram in our phones. Scott pulls out a phone: this has more power than a computer that took us to the moon. The world:... Looks down ashamed of what they are doing with their processing power. :)

[@ryanhellerud7]

He just needs the bob Ross hair. Then the happy little cloud is complete.

[@tamilselvank3058]

I'm watching like a curious cat. Amazing series.

[@simpuruit5289]

Thanks Scott! Love your sense of humor LOL

[@Makumbi]

@Scott, I thought that the cloud wasn’t just storage. That it was about XaaS? Offering stuff aaS. Like giving me a web service so I don’t have to worry about the entire server. Or a database instance as opposed to having to manage the whole stack? Thanks for these videos. In all the time I have stalked you, you he azure edge has been the coolest gadget you have ever showed. Keep these coming.

[@mgmoody42]

That's some impressive server architecture. But if you add another Rpi array you should at least put it in another room! :)

[@TheITMommy]

Starting my journey in cloud today after 10yrs break of raising my kids. I hope I am at the right place. Any guidance from you would be extremely helpful.

[@abdykerimovurmat]

you are Bob Ross of computer world

[@juleswombat5309]

Next session, Lego Technic and how to integrate Mindstorms with VS Code.

[@RobCaron]

While you have the Edge device, you should do an Azure Friday episode. 👍

[@shanselman]

LET'S DO IT

[@randy4ii411]

Wow you really love these raspberry pies, don’t you wanna do a teaching on them how to program them to do something useful I’ve never experienced doing anything with it so it would be really interesting and you may lead me down a new path. Brilliant info Sir.

[@bhasker412]

Scott can you take us a tour of Azure cloud data center some time?

[@BeareTube]

Really appreciate this. Thanks Scott.

[@psmak4]

Scott, you are the Bob Ross of computers. Just sitting there talking about pretty clouds.

[@mikel5049]

What a great show!

[@jamesallen74]

It's a beautiful day in the data center, a beautiful day for a coder...

[@sameermalhotra4342]

Amazing session .. WOW !!! #Respect#Fan

[@jessusrdev]

Awesome episode. Thank you 🙌🙏

[@ChristopherRucinski]

You should do a video on WINE (Wine Is Not Emulated) and how something like this can even exist. Also, with Microsoft's Linux push, is it possible Microsoft could provide needed resources to boost development?

[@JRJ360]

Holy crap this was well done. 👍

[@JRJ360]

I marvel at Scott’s knack for simple analogies.

[@bharath_v]

It was fun!

[@sandya3016]

I see gundam. Respect

[@sumitsharma5537]

12:20 Finally Dell EMC 😍

[@bujin1977]

"This is expandable" (the RAM) "just like in your computer". Yep, well it helps when you plug the CPU fan in the right way around so that it doesn't impede the RAM slots, as I found this week! What should have been a 2 minute job to fit another 16Gb RAM to my PC meant I needed to buy more thermal paste and isopropyl alcohol to take the fan off, clean it off, reapply the thermal paste and reattach the fan the right way around. Just to put a couple of sticks of RAM in... 🙄

[@samuelschwager]

A surface stack!

[@gower1973]

How many cores and threads is that running, how many instances of a game server for instance could it run? How many connections could it handle simultaneously?

[@b4ux1t3-tech]

Hey Scott, What power supply is that that you're using with the Pis? I think I'm in love. Does it properly power yours? My biggest pet peeve with these PSUs is that they seem to underdeliver and I get that power warning 75% of t he tie the Pis are on, especially when more than one is turned on.

[@shanselman]

I use this one www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WI2DN4S/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1&tag=diabeticbooks-20 #ref

[@b4ux1t3-tech]

Brilliant!

[@junedkhan4643]

Damm that is too much stuff in your room. I would love a tour of it.

[@KatwereJames]

You nailed it. Thanks

Where did you get that "Oh my zsh" tshirt? Do you also have "oh my posh" version of it?

[@qwertclyde1092]

[@danielduran8906]

Where can I get a parts list for that mini server? The raspberry pi stack haha
