Hi Steve,
There is no future talk planned, but the paper is available online, and is
quite readable. You might also read news items about the work, for example
in calcalist -
http://www.calcalist.co.il/internet/articles/0,7340,L-3573485,00.html
This is the first part - the motivation. The part about memcached is not
written (but the code is of course available, BSD license. All those are
linked from the talk's page: http://haifux.org/lectures/285/
We've got a talk about FOSS for production of goods coming up (this was its
tentative name), now it is differently titled. By Yael Vaya-Talmor, now
called What more can industry learn from open source?

Could not attend, for geographical reasons - by chance, is the lecture
repeated anywhere else in the coming few weeks?
Also, was there going to be a lecture about open source hardware? I
vaguely recall something like that on previous announcement.
Thanks,
Z.

On Monday, September 3rd at 18:30, Haifux will gather to hear a talk by
Orna Agmon Ben-Yehuda:
The Resource-as-a-Service (RaaS) Cloud
Abstract
Over the next few years, a new model of buying and selling cloud
computing resources will evolve. Instead of providers exclusively selling
server-equivalent virtual machines for relatively long periods of time (as
done in today's IaaS clouds), they will increasingly sell individual
resources (such as CPU, memory, and I/O resources) for a few seconds at a
time. We term this nascent economic model of cloud computing the
Resource-as-a-Service (RaaS) cloud, and we argue that its rise is the
likely culmination of recent trends in the construction of IaaS clouds and
of the economic forces operating on both providers and clients.
The paper appeared in HotCloud 2012. Joint work with Muli Ben-Yehuda,
Assaf Schuster and Dan Tsafrir. The theoretical talk will be followed by a
code walk-through of patch to memcached which makes it an application that
can use the benefits of the RaaS cloud, which is joint work with Eyal
Posener.
