OK, guys...thanks for the info! In my case, I will need to make use of SolidFire's storage, so using DevCloud for storage is probably not going to be applicable for me.
I could use DevCloud to run VMs...I see now. I also have another VM I've been using that has XenServer installed where I could run my VMs. This is making more sense to me now. I just wasn't really confident I understood what DevCloud provided. Thanks again On Tue, Jan 22, 2013 at 8:02 PM, Marcus Sorensen <shadow...@gmail.com>wrote: > Devcloud is where your VMS run.
