"Rule 1 of building the cloud: ruthlessly automate everything.” -@PGelsinger

If you've ever considered automating anything in your VMware environment chances are you've either read a blog post or even used some sample code from one or both of our guests this week.

With VMworld just over a week away we thought it would be a perfect time to bring in our dear friends William Lam and Alan Renouf to get their thoughts on ruthless automation and to see what they have planned for the big show.
