I just got an email that one of my articles was just posted to eWeek's Knowledge Center. I think this one might have been posted in a couple other places as well, but I can't remember. If you feel so inclined have a look at:
http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Virtualization/Virtual-Desktop-Infrastructure-Why-Your-Next-Desktop-Will-Be-Virtual-391833/
Why your next desktop will be virtual.
It's a very quick read with a few drivers behind VDI.
Enjoy.

To the cloud or not to the cloud?
I spent this morning on a conference call being introduced to a new storage system. This is the first storage system that is purpose built for Virtual Machines and not to be used as general purpose storage. I also heard about another new storage system geared towards service providers that will power the next generation of public cloud. Then came another announcement from VMware about the launch of their new Platform as a Service offering Cloud Foundry.
Maybe it's because I work in the world of virtualization every day, or maybe it's just an idea who's time has come, but either way there is a lot of activity in the virtualization and the cloud space lately.

Comedy in the clouds
I haven't really had time to post anything this week as I have been busy putting together a presentation for an executive symposium my company is hosting next week. I have 20 to 25 minutes to pitch the services we offer around building a cloud... But if you have ever seen me present you know that I need to work that in to a 20 to 25 minute comedy routine that conveys my message.
It sounds easier than it is in actuality. I have to take the exciting topic of private cloud, the stack, the business value, the financial impact, tie it back to services that support the creation of this vision, and make people laugh and remember what I am saying. If you want to learn a bit about the process I go through read on after the jump.
