It's been quite a while since my last post. Even I felt sometimes that this blog is an abandoned project. I thought and I thought about it. I will not abandon it. It is the least I can do. Share some opinions, write stuff down. Even if nobody would read, at least I would be able to see what was I like some time ago.
These are the things were going on lately: weekdays migrating email to google apps, various other projects; weekends at the cabin in the mountains I try to build. Not with my bare hands, like Chuck Norris would make it. And I also have to admit that I have help, a lot of help.
There are quite a lot of things going on in the IT business at this point. I start to see the need of elastic capacity growing. I believe this is the future. Scripting, automating, elastic capacity. At OS layer, would be nice at network layer also. A very strong candidate for a custom cloud solution is Open Stack. I made a purpose to check that out how it would work for us. Also, Vmware could play such a role if we use the VIX API. I will try this solution also and see what comes out of it.
On the other pole of my existence there is the construction. I will make a post with some pictures of the surroundings and of the fabulous construction. There are still a lot of things to do, a lot more then I thought about before all this shebang started. I will get back to you on that.
Anyways, just wanted to let everybody know (myself included) that this blog is not dead. I am back!
