Reading Time: 6 minutes In my briefing with Actifio, during the last Powering the cloud event, was with Andrew Gilman (Senior Director of Global Marketing) and Ann Karolin Thueland (Director Marketing EMEA). The company is a so-called storage “start-up”, but it already has its own story (it was founded by Ash Ashutosh in July 2009) and by the way was born in Massachusetts, rather than the “usual” Silicon Valley. Furthermore, compared to many other start-up that are building solutions similar to each other (at least from a conceptual point of view), here the founders have addressed a specific needs […]

Reading Time: 2 minutes So also this event is gone. This was my second year at this kind of event and I think that was really useful and interesting, especially for the good meetings that I’ve got during those two days. Some considerations are already available in my report of the first and the second day. But I will also post more about each vendor meeting on the next days. This is a complete list:

Reading Time: 2 minutes Also this year I’m attending at the Powering the Cloud event (this was the report of past event). I’ve already written about the reasons to attend at this event, now let’s describe how (and if) were valuable. The agenda is almost dense and structured in different paths and topics. There isn’t a real general session, so you can choose what you prefer and build your personal agenda. Of course keynotes still exists, but are just in a dedicated track. But I’ve also already had some scheduled meetings: on the first day with SNIA, DotHill, SpectraLogic. […]

Virtualization World (fifth year) that takes a focused look at the continuing development of IT virtualization standards and solutions and the key role they play in delivering Cloud computing services. Datacenter Technologies (fifth year) that […]

Reading Time: 3 minutes My briefing with DataCore, during the last Powering the cloud event, was with Alexander Best (Director Technical Business Development). First to all we have talk about the new SANsymphony-V 9 (released on June 26, 2012) and how this kind of storage virtualization solution (or we can all it an example of Software Defined Storage) is probably the only one that is completly vendor independent. I will write in the next post about the specific functions and integration for VMware. In an annouce at the Powering The Cloud even, DataCore has defined its solution the “The […]

Reading Time: 2 minutes My briefing with VMware, during the last Powering the cloud event, was with Rob Jenkins (Director Advisory Services, EMEA). Basically we have done a recap of some VMworld announcements and the VMware’s vision of the datacenters: Flexibile IT infrastructure Fabric of the datacenter Fully automated Was also interesting how VMware is doing a company data-mining to define and classify them by an “innovative score”.
