Over the past years, I’ve been on a constant quest to “improve my workflow”, a rather crude way for a non-native English speaker to talk about productivity tweaks. In other words, improving my work environment. Before the Covid-19 outbreak, I was travelling frequently and thus my workhorse / travel companion
(Photo by Xander Ashwell on Unsplash) The latest events at Twitter have caused me to reevaluate my presence on social media networks overall. Reducing my footprint isn’t exactly a new thing: I have left Facebook a few years ago, with no regrets. Nevertheless, the change of ownership at Twitter has
Dear readers, although it was never officially announced, those who follow me know that for the past few years, I’ve been conducting the bulk of my online content creation activities through TECHunplugged, a company I co-own. In fact, all of the enterprise IT content is now created exclusively over there.
If you’ve watched the Apple event, you may have noticed that Apple M1 Silicon is being expanded to include two new chips, the M1 Pro and the M1 Max. Apple has an official press release about it, and no doubt that esteemed industry analysts will soon be sharing their comments
Shower is one of those places where I get a break from everyday’s life distractions and from the digital world as well. Putting my head under a hot stream of water kind of makes it work, and ideas, sometimes crazy, emerge afterwards. After today’s thoughts I recorded a video –
I’ve been pretty lucky at avoiding COVID during most of 2020. What at first seemed to be a distant thing, like the SARS epidemic of the 2000’s, turned out later on to become a very real threat. Today, we’re getting a bit personal here on the blog. After all, those
It’s been a while since I blogged on kamshin.com – especially since I’ve decided that all technical / industry news content would move over to TECHunplugged.io for consistency / audience reasons. But enough self-flagellation, and onto this burning topic (no pun intented). Those of you who follow me on Twitter
I am back from Tech Field Day 20, a very rich event both in terms of content presented and in human interactions. During Tech Field Day events, each presenting company shows their product, which includes the interface(s) with whom users will interact. Another aspect of those presentations is how data
Tech Field Day 20 will take place next week from 12 to 15-Nov-19. While it seems like it’s just yet another Tech Field Day, it’s definitely not.At least not for me, and for two reasons. My first Tech Field Day is next week First reason is that TFD20 will be
I’m pleased to inform that I will be attending Pure Storage Accelerate in Austin, TX (15-Sep-19 to 18-Sep-19) as a part of the Analyst track. I will also be joining my Tech Field Day friends, as well as awesome friends & delegates, to participate in the live streaming / recording
I’d like to share today something a bit different than the usual technical stuff. While at Dell Technologies World, I had a really interesting and meaningful conversation with Konstanze Alex, Head of Influencer Relations at Dell Technologies, who is also behind the fantastic #DellLuminaries community / project. The Impact of
I’m at Dell Technologies World this week in Las Vegas and I’ve had the pleasure to be briefed on the latest announcements in midrange storage, namely the introduction of the Unity XT. What’s new with Unity? The Unity XT is the latest family member in Dell Technologies midrange storage. The
Flash memory has been one of my topics of predilection lately. Some 3D XPoint coverage here, a TECHunplugged research paper on the Solid State Industry Memory in 2019 (with an accompanying blog post here) and one earlier TECHunplugged research paper on Computational Storage are a testimony to that. Perhaps the
More and more of the companies who have been in the business of data protection are now in the business of data management. Is it still relevant to develop, market and sell data protection solutions when all the hype seems to be around data management? Data Protection: the Foundation Stone
In January 2019 I attended Cisco Live alongside with Tech Field Day Extra. During that event, we had a presentation on the latest generation of Cisco’s HCI solution, Cisco HyperFlex (HX). The outcome of this presentation was a somewhat passionate blog post I wrote on the matter, where I pointed
