After launching Digg, Inc. and Equinix, Inc., serial entrepreneur Jay Adelson is targeting DevOps with his latest startup, Opsmatic. He’s also planning to start a venture capital firm, although he’s revealing few details.
Adleson says the experience he’s amassed from helping transform the Internet from clubby to commercial, as well as his own string of successes, gives him the overview he needs to find new opportunities.
“It’s sort of shocking talking talking about the history of stuff,” and lookign at how far we’ve come, Adelson said, noting that that just 20 years ago, a car driving through the wall of a single building in Virginia building could have taken down the entire Internet. “The Internet was so not robust fifteen years ago. Now everyone depends on it. Some people had to work really hard to get to this point,” he explained in a live interview with theCUBE co-hosts John Furrier and Jeff Frick at the Peer 2.0 conference.
Shifting to the Peer 2.0 educational event, Adelson said there were two important categories of people attending; the traditional peering engineers, and those “who want to connect directly to [Amazon.com, Inc.'s] Amazon Web Services or any of the SaaS services that make up an enterprise,” a new generation driven by virtualization and the cloud.
Furrier added that emerging startups no longer need large budgets to get off the ground. “It’s true that it costs less money to start a company, and that’s awesome. That also means there is a greater percentage of companies that don’t make it,” he said. “The speed of deployment is insane.”
