Although New England ought to win that big football game, they’re losing when it comes to innovation and technology. Seattle and Austin are gaining rapidly, and Massachusetts has itself to blame thanks to oppressive non-compete clauses and the threat of litigation. As for Tech Field Day, look for us to return to Silicon Valley for seven of our nine full events in 2015. At least now you know why!

Truth in Storage: The Next Generation – Announcing My 2014 Seminar Series
This year for my Truth in IT seminars, I’m shifting away from virtualization to focus on enterprise storage once again. But this won’t be any ordinary “storage 101†seminar. Rather than trying to talk about every element, I’m focused on what’s new!
Building Virtual Infrastructure Seminar, Seattle WA
Two days after I present in Silicon Valley, I’ll be headed to Seattle for my next Building Virtual Infrastructure seminar. These all-day events presented by Truth in IT are a chance for end-users to learn more about next-generation servers, networks, and storage.
Microsoft MVP Summit — Redmond, WA
Next week, I head to Redmond Washington for the annual Microsoft MVP Summit. This is always a fantastic event, full of technical information (sadly, much under NDA) and great people. I look forward to learning more about Windows Server storage technologies like ReFS, Storage Spaces, SMB 2.2, and more.
Storage for Virtual Environments Seminar, Seattle, WA
The next date in my Storage for Virtual Environments seminar series is rapidly approaching, and I hope to see my Pacific Northwest readers there! I’ve made even more changes to the seminar content, adding more about vSphere 5 and including new VAAI and partition alignment info. There’s never enough time for everything I want to cover, of course.
