Making a Case For (and Against) Software-Defined Storage

January 9, 2014 By Stephen 4 Comments

Everyone is talking about “software-defined” everything lately, so it was only a matter of time before industry buzz turned to software-defined storage.

May 4, 2012 By Stephen Leave a Comment

I am thrilled to return to speak at Interop next week, though not so much about returning to Las Vegas for the third time already this year. This time around, I'll be on two Interop panel discussions in Mike Fratto's storage track. If you will be at Interop and would like to meet up, let me know. Considering Interop The grand old tradeshow, Interop has changed a great deal … [Read more...] about Interop Las Vegas 2012
