History teaches us that astonishing feats occur not when a singular leader
envisions them, but when a mass of skilled workers collaborates to transform
that vision into something material. The Pyramids of Giza, for example, were
not built overnight by a Pharaoh, but constructed by tens of thous... (more)
The Need for the Public Cloud Alternative
You know you need the cloud, but you're hesitant to simply dump everything at
Amazon since you know that not all workloads are suitable for cloud. You know
that you want the kind of ease of use and scalability that you get with
public cloud, but your applications are architected in a way that makes the
public cloud a non-starter. You're looking at private cloud solutions based
on hyperconverged infrastructure, but you're concerned with the limits
inherent in those technologies.
Private cloud infrastructure based on composable technologies result in
environments that are suitable for all your workloads while also providing
you with many of the benefits of the public cloud, and without the pitfalls.
Composable infrastructure is an emerging data center architecture that
provides you with the resource flexibility inherent in tra... (more)

Dell EMC Announce Azure Stack Hybrid Cloud Solution
Dell EMC have announced their Microsoft Azure Stack hybrid cloud platform
solutions. This announcement builds upon earlier statements of support and
intention by Dell EMC to be part of the Microsoft Azure Stack community. For
those of you who are not familiar, Azure Stack is an on premise extension of
Microsoft Azure public cloud.
What this means is that essentially you can have the Microsoft Azure
experience (or a subset of it) in your own data center or data
infrastructure, enabling cloud experiences and abilities at your own pace,
your own way with control. Learn more about Microsoft Azure Stack including
my experiences with and installing Technique Preview 3 (TP3) here.

Jun. 5, 2017 09:00 PM EDT Reads: 1,833 | By Carmen Gonzalez  A strange thing is happening along the way to the Internet of Things, namely far too many devices to work with and manage. It has become clear that we'll need much higher efficiency user experiences that can allow us to more easily and scalably work with the thousands of devices that will soon be in each of our lives.

Jun. 5, 2017 03:15 PM EDT Reads: 794 | By Liz McMillan  When shopping for a new data processing platform for IoT solutions, many development teams want to be able to test-drive options before making a choice. Yet when evaluating an IoT solution, it’s simply not feasible to do so at scale with physical devices. Building a sensor simulator is the next best choice; however, generating a realistic simulation at very high TPS with ease of configurability is a formidable challenge.

Imagine that you have hundreds of development, testing, and operations teams spread across the globe that rely on each other to execute software testing. You have 245 test environments and you release to pre-production several times a day and deploy to production once a week. How do you manage all the software tests, test data, and test environments? Traditionally, the answer would be to fill out spreadsheets or siloed tools, send emails, and hope that everything and everyone is ready at each st...

Most DevOps journeys involve several phases of maturity. Research shows that the inflection point where organizations begin to see maximum value is when they implement tight integration deploying their code to their infrastructure. Success at this level is the last barrier to at-will deployment. Storage, for instance, is more capable than where we read and write data.
