Brian invited Ernie Costa to join him for this podcast. Ernie is a Team Lead at Commvault and a Microsoft Azure Hybrid MVP (Most Valuable Professional). Ernie’s LinkedIn profile lists his background as a Systems Administrator, Engineer, and Architect with 20 years of Enterprise, SMB, Financial, Hospitality, and Educational experience.

He was involved with data center operations, on-premises and cloud infrastructure design and implementation, networking architecting, project management, vendor contract negotiations, and multi-tier Help Desk procedures. Ernie knows his way around the data center and the cloud.

As mentioned above, Ernie is also a Microsoft MVP. To put the MVP title into context, Microsoft describes the “award” this way:

“Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals, or MVPs, are technology experts who passionately share their knowledge with the community. They are always on the “bleeding edge” and have an unstoppable urge to get their hands on new, exciting technologies. They have very deep knowledge of Microsoft products and services while also being able to bring together diverse platforms, products, and solutions to solve real-world problems. MVPs make up a global community of over 4,000 technical experts and community leaders across 90 countries/regions and are driven by their passion, community spirit, and quest for knowledge. Above all, and in addition to their amazing technical abilities, MVPs are always willing to help others – that’s what sets them apart.”

Taking advantage of Ernie’s MVP Award, their conversation gets into Microsoft Azure Arc, Managed SQL Server, HCI Stack, and more.
