    calendar Mar 10, 2015 · 7 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    A few weeks ago I wrote a post whose title was Cloud Native Applications (for Dummies). While I don't want to claim that that was my masterpiece, I have received some positive feedbacks about it. So let's say we all agree on how a 'Cloud Native Applications' looks (or should look) like. There are two major events that …

  • Cloud Native Applications (for Dummies)

    There have been attempts lately to describe "modern applications" or "modern workloads". A good attempt is The Twelve-Factor App. It's a great way to describe such workloads but I think those concepts would need to be dumbed down an order of magnitude to get the average Joe to digest them properly. …

  • The Dark Age in Front of Us: a Reality Check of mid 2014

    calendar Sep 10, 2014 · 7 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    As I draft this blog post on my way back from VMworld 2014, I have mixed sentiments to share. I spent my IT career (roughly 20 years) on a finite number of technologies that I ended up specializing in (somehow). It has been a progression that looks like this: Unix (briefly), Microsoft and, eventually, VMware. What …

  • Docker on vCHS (with 2 API Calls)

    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    In this article I am going to show how you can start using Docker on top of the VMware vCloud Hybrid Service. I am going to show you how to do that in different ways so that you can choose your own method based on the mechanisms you are more familiar with (e.g. UIs or APIs). Docker is getting so much buzz these days …

  • Guest OS Customization in vCHS

    calendar Jun 19, 2014 · 12 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    As I was taking notes with some vCHS workload deployment experiments I thought I'd turn them in a blog post. This is more for me to find it easily in 2 months when I will have forgotten pretty much everything I found. If you are interested in the matter of guest OS customization options in vCHS read on, but I can't …

  • Is AWS Slowing Down Due to Lack of Demand Rather Than Lack of Ideas?

    calendar May 29, 2014 · 6 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    I was surfing the web (as usual) a few days ago and an AWS presentation I spotted on SlideShare got my attention. Before I even begin, remember I (currently) work for VMware. I always try, on this blog, to be as open as possible and talk freely about what I really think. However feel free to turn on your bias filter if …

  • vCHS Monitoring and Capacity Management 101 – the Practice

    calendar Apr 18, 2014 · 9 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    In the previous blog post I provided a high level (101) theoretical overview of how resource monitoring and capacity management work in vCHS. Particularly how VPCs on shared clouds and vDCs on dedicated clouds differ from each others. Please read it for proper context. That was the theory. This blog post is about …

    This is blog one of a series of two. In these blog posts I will be introducing (at 101 level) how resource monitoring and capacity management work in vCHS. Before we get into the meat, it is important to understand how capacity is delivered to tenants in vCHS. Background One of the many things that make vCHS unique in …

    Probably my shortest blog post ever. I have lost track of what's happening in the EUC (End User Computing) space. Ironically I started this blog roughly 7 years ago with a post on virtual desktops (which is what I was working on at that time). Thinking about it, that was my shortest blog post ever. Not sure what …

  • vCHS Meets vCO (and Boris Becomes a Hero!)

    calendar Jan 31, 2014 · 10 min read  ·
    Share on: twitter facebook linkedin copy

    There are so many things I'd like to show and talk about here that I wanted to dumb down the title as much as possible. The trigger This all started (a long time ago) by realizing that with AWS you can deploy an EC2 instance and SSH/RDP into it in a matter of a couple of minutes with just a few clicks. With vCHS (and …
