A continuation of my floor review of FusionIO and their new technology. ION is one of those technologies that is an externally sharable solution. The concept is you provide the x86 box, insert multiple FusionIO cards, load ION software code and boom; you have an all PCIe flash, fault tolerant (stripped across cards), sharable via…
From the show floor of vmworld 2012 I got a chance to get a demo and overview from the FusionIO folks. These are the folks that @NexusStratos (the company I’m with) worked with on the Polaris success (earlier in the year we did a “brief-n-ride” at their corp HQ – uber sleds, uber tech). The…
On the floor of the vmworld 2012 Solutions Exchange I ran across my favorite VDI/EUC tool; Lakeside Software. Naturally I wanted to see what was new with them and man did I get a surprise!
As Nexus hosted an Avengers movie premier event I took a bit of time to investigate what the current state of technology is in these movie theatres. Enjoy!

I run a presales organization that philosophically approaches our clients and organizations with a consultative, hopefully scientific approach. With the…
I’ve continued to be impressed by the offerings and interest in the Voip/VDI space offered through @Mitel. In a 1st time preview to the gen 3 @nexusmn VDI Showcase I’ve captured a video of the demo of their functionality.
Got a chance to catch up to my favorite VDI software provider; Lakeside Software @lakesidesoft. @nexusmn utilizes them heavily in our VDI assessments and the tool is at the heart of our VDI Kung Fu. Below is a video update from them on the floor of the solutions exchange.
I’ve been a long time partner and advocate of the Akorri, Rob Strechay, and BalancePoint. I’ve blogged previously (here; http://goo.gl/JnZTY) about why it’s fundamentally great and different from most of the VM Management applications (and believe me there are a ton now).
