Over the last month i have been pretty busy attending the NetApp insight conferences in both Las Vegas and in Berlin as well as doing my normal day job. First up was Las Vegas for my first visit and my first US version of the event. You can see some of the tourist things i did whilst out there. I found the city to be of huge scale, and its a city where you dont want to be extending your stay past 4-5 days, it’s a city that takes a lot…. quite literally. We then had a couple of weeks break then it was timeRead More →

Following on from my previous post regarding my trip over to the US for NetApp Insight in Vegas i have also put together my schedule for Berlin.

So i have decided to write up a post based on the trip, I cannot share too much from the Tech Field day as its NDA but i will mention what i can. I firstly got to meet some of my fellow NetApp Advocates, as expected they are a great bunch, that just love NetApp. Day One (Monday) So i flew out of London Heathrow at 2pm and travelled west to San Francisco internationalRead More →

Hello there, so something I have not really got into is firstly the writing of the blog posts. I spent the time setting the page up etc but I haven’t actually had the time to shout about things, secondly its that time of year where all tech blogs consist of some sort of review of the year gone by and predictions for the forthcoming year… So I am going to try and do just that and try to predict where I think technology will head in 2014. I will also look to summarise my experiences of 2013. Flash We have seen a huge increase inRead More →
