@SethRosenblum @memenetes And that’s just the dev part. Excitement ahead for ops.

@Suhail @martin_casado How much compute vs network vs storage?

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

Perhaps Starboard Value folks read the #cloud vs #datacenter narrative that @sarahdingwang @martin_casado reignited recently. #1 GM improvement opp mentioned in their @Box pitch: re-evaluate use of datacenter and public clouds. https://t.co/cWoJl7gdPw

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

Want the best #datacenter #economics? You need to work with a multi-product #storage company like @Infinidat. Great data points from @Chris_Mellor at @BlocksandFiles: 4x+ flash premium vs HDDs for the foreseeable future, 5-5.7x premium since 2018 https://t.co/7c0JaNCjxg

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

@storagebod Also durability ≠ availability…

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

@Foone Lousy datasheet, doesn’t say anything about performance or data reduction ratios. 0/10

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

The power of #partnership: check out this #CUBEconversation between @Infinidat CEO Phil Bullinger, @VMware's @leecaswell, and @dvellante, about the future of the datacenter and how to simplify VMware management at scale. https://t.co/6raMcQAEaL

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

@esignoretti Lots of factors but I think a lot of it is due to lack of transparency of the underlying #infrastructure stack to the users. In the IaaS/on prem world at a minimum IT could see “oh, here are some files, better back them up”. Not visible for SaaS offerings.

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

@IDC: in 4Q20 hybrid #storage grew 📈5.8% YoY to $3.2B, all-#flash declined 📉6.9% to $3.0B. I think that's the biggest spread since 2014 in favor of mixed media architectures like @Infinidat's. Good writeup by @Chris_Mellor https://t.co/uE6V93XO9C

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

Great milestone for @Infinidat's @VMware partnership: #vVols! But not just a "check the box" - our design sets a new bar for scalability and ease of use. https://t.co/vkIKKeBsNl

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

We simplify the lives of virtual #infrastructure admins with integrations across the @VMware portfolio, and the story is about to get even better. Find out more in my latest blog: https://t.co/v8IdfKHiEK

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

According to a @Deloitte survey, 57% of CIOs say innovation is the core expectation of IT. Find out how our #storage technology can help you forget about infrastructure and focus on what really matters. https://t.co/s2HFoSGpfh

[Daniel Bowers @Daniel_Bowers]

From an IT leader who cut an infrastructure bill in half thru tough negotiation: "It eats into our trust with [the vendor] now that we know their first offer was so inflated."

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

@milishah At least here in CA, the process was much more emotional than I expected. You really have to fall in love with a place very fast to be willing to make a competitive offer, and you may not win. Lots of ups and downs.

Nice ad by ⁦⁦@RedHat⁩ today in the #WSJ. Simple, clear, good message.

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

Nice article from @MayaPosch about the #HDD #tech innovations that most folks take for granted. https://t.co/T4CS7yeL5J

[Erik Kaulberg @ekaulberg]

@QuinnyPig Kubernetes! More abstractions always help.

Congratulations to @Infinidat 's partner @ThalesDigiSec on their massive new #CipherTrust launch! Great news for enterprises who care about #encryption and #datasecurity.
