The cloud experience in a colo podcast
In this blog article, I share the podcast episode looking at colos and HPE GreenLake. Joining me was Malcolm Ferguson, a Distinguished Technologist with HPE. Malcolm used to work for a colo and was the perfect person to join the podcast to shed light on colos and HPE GreenLake.
Here's the episode of Around the IT Block
Here's what Malcolm and I discussed:
- 00:00-01:50 Introduction
- 01:50 - 3:50 What is a Colo and what is a REIT?
- 03:30 - 08:30 What are the advantages of a colo? Evolution of HPE moving from 85 owned datacenters to colo for HPE IT.
- 08:30 - 13:50 Why a colo with HPE GreenLake? Customers that are "repatriating" applications from public cloud.
- 13:50 - 15:30 Moving away from a "cloud-first" strategy and looking at workloads-first, availability-first.
- 15:30 - 17:30 The pricing of HPE GreenLake in a colo is ALWAYS cheaper than public cloud.
- 17:30 - 20:30 When should customers be using public cloud?
- 20:30 - 23:30 Rethinking cloud first and moving to hybrid cloud with HPE GreenLake.
- 23:30 -26:00 HPE GreenLake with colo is "green" and wrap-up.
More on colos and HPE GreenLake
Here are a few previous blog posts that talked about colos, including the first one below that Malcolm wrote:
- Malcolm Ferguson: Colocation is great. It’s even better with an as-a-service platform for all your workloads
- Angelo Tirri: Reduce your environmental footprint with HPE GreenLake in a colocation
- Jacquelyn Morgan: Delivering on the promise of hybrid cloud with HPE GreenLake and CyrusOne

Talk, talk, talk
Lastly, I want to talk a bit more about my podcast. At the beginning of the year, the name changed to Around the IT Block. But another huge shift happened in October – it's now an official HPE podcast. You can find it on lots of different podcast platforms like iTunes, Google Podcast, Amazon Music Podcast, Spotify Podcast and several others. It also just got it's own hpe.com home at hpe.com/dmn/ATITB.
I have a couple of other HPE GreenLake episodes that you can find below:
- Get a deep dive on HPE GreenLake Lighthouse in this podcast (Link is to an article on this blog)
- Around the IT Block Podcast Episode #16: What is HPE GreenLake Central? (Link to an article on Around the Storage Block)

I have worked at HPE since 1983, all of it around storage but 100% focused on storage since 1990. I'm expanding into other areas of focus at HPE like HPE GreenLake, compute, containers, AI, and more. I blog, create videos, and podcasts to help you better understand HPE Storage. Find my podcast at https://www.hpe.com/dmn/ATITB
