The company just announced Cloud Foundry, an open source system in which developers can build applications for cloud computing, without having to work in specific underlying technologies.
Maritz says his company purchased a shop called Cloud Foundry, where open source developers can work together, and VMware can spot the eventual leaders in the field.
Two things: the open architecture of the PC, and the foundry business, which allows companies focused on chip design to outsource the production of their chips.
Facing a May 1997 deadline set by Mr. Costner for the resort to open, Ms. Detmers says she contracted with other artisans and an art foundry in Wyoming and went to work sketching and sculpting small-scale wax figures.
