This document discusses several topics related to disruptive technologies and platforms: it introduces Geoffrey Moore and his work, references Clayton Christensen's concept of low-end disruption, compares OpenStack to Linux, discusses how applications differ from platforms, proposes an "enterprise Dropbox" model, and outlines a "get rich quick" method for augmenting OpenStack with proprietary additions. The document provides commentary on challenges of adopting platforms and accelerating their usage through applications.

advantage: That’s because disruptive innovations are more
likely to be championed by end-users rather than the
professionals operating the current infrastructure”
“To accelerate the adoption of platforms vendors must clothe them in applications
clothing”
“Please mind the gap between the application and the
platform as you board this train”
