We’ve talked about image optimization before, but this episode is different. First of all, Jack Levin, CEO of http://nventify.com/ was Google’s very first Network Engineer and hearing his stories on that alone is worth it. Second, he’s built an impressive cloud engine Imagizer.com which he says can process images in 25ms. This speed, obviously, has a lot of benefits, but how is it possible? That’s the main topic of this episode. As you’ll see, this engine actually isn’t even a service! It’s an AMI image you can install on AWS EC2 machines. So on top of the technical details, we can also learn a valuable business lesson. Overall, a super interesting interview. Imagizer.com is an elastic image processing engine designed for your cloud.
