Brian Madden's life and career

We had a lot to talk about on this week's BrianMadden.com Podcast-we talked about Dell and EMC (and what that means to vWorkspace, Dell EMM, and AirWatch, Microsoft inching closer to a legitimate DaaS product based on Windows 10, Blackberry's recent Android phone (called the "Priv") and more.

AirWatch Connect was this week in Atlanta, so VMware's Brian Katz joined Jack and Gabe to talk about the event.

Joe Vaccaro and Vishal Ganeriwala from Citrix joined us from the VMworld floor to talk about what they've got going with Citrix Workspace Cloud. While we've all heard about what it is and what it does, the focus of this podcast was to discuss the most common use cases and how to decide where your workloads should run.

We talked about what we heard in the VMworld 2015 keynote today.

The first ever podcast on BrianMadden.com was on August 18, 2005, and our guest was a Mr. Kevin Goodman. So we thought we'd bring Kevin back as our guest this week to talk about where we were and how far we've come as an industry.

For this episode of the BrianMadden.com podcast, there were no guests-just Brian, Gabe, and Jack.

On this special edition (i.e. "sponsored") BrianMadden.

Last month VMware announced their next-generation identity and access management platform, VMware Identity Manager, so for this podcast we had VMware's Noah Wasmer and Ashish Jain join Gabe and Jack to dig in. Besides going over VMware Identity Manager, we got to cover a lot of ground in the SSO and identity and access management space.

On last week's podcast, Brian and I set out to discuss the state of enterprise mobility. This was pretty interesting because he's a 20-year veteran of the desktop space and I'm on the mobile side.
