Hyper-Convergence is defined by the virtualization of compute, network, storage technologies thus allowing logical objects to reside on any compatible hardware regardless of location. The Software Defined Data Center focuses on the end user solution and the process of providing these solutions in a Hyper-Converged Infrastructure. The modern data center is no longer restricted by brick and mortar walls.

For years, IT has used abstraction to create a commoditization of our infrastructure.  Now there are formal names and products that take the commoditization to the next level. As hyper-convergence and the software defined data center begin the journey of maturing to the point where early adopters now have stories to tell, we can explore tool sets and best practices of expanding your data center beyond the four walls of your data centers.

Tune in on February 3rd as we discuss this trend and all the software companies that are working to support the modern data center. And don't forget to call in to ask a question or make a comment on the air and get an Amazon Gift Card at (347) 637-1009

During this show we will be searching for issues that would prevent a company from going to Office 365. There have been some emotional blockers, but financially, technically, and operationally, there does not seem to be very many good reasons any more to not move to the new licensing model for Microsoft's Productivity Suite. Join us on June 3rd when we open the phones in search of a good reason! Give us a call and let's talk Business Requirements, Technical and Functional Requirements, and more importantly, emotional requirements! We will answer all of your questions on Office 365 and the business strategies that drove it to make more sense than the perpetual licensing model of Office 2013. Join us June 3rd at Noon EDT or 9:00 AM PDT to find out why Office 365 makes more business sense than it's on premise predecessor. We are excited to talk to our Featured Guest, J Peter Bruzzese, Microsoft MVP, and Mimecast. Only on the SoftwareONE Radio Network

Microsoft Azure has changed the game in cloud computing.  And how did they do it? They stumbled across a very important attribute that was necessary for companies to adopt the cloud! Control! For us IT Admins to get that "Warm Fuzzy"  and feel good about pitching the cloud to our leadership as a safe and profitable strategy, we needed two things. Security and Control. Security was always at the forefront of our needs. It was a must have, but for us to really be able to dip our toes into cloud computing outside of Software as a Service, we needed to be able to maintain control of our assets! Join us on this edition of Tech Talk presented by the SoftwareONE Radio Network as we discuss viable solutions that can help you today in a secure and controllable cloud environment! We will interview experts from Oracle, IBM, and Microsoft to discuss how Azure acts like our secondary datacenters more than any other cloud solution. We are also excited to have CommVault join us during our second segment to discuss how they are making it easier to use Azure for Disaster Recovery, Business Continuity and solution virtualization, all while we take your questions on the air. May 20th at 12:00 EDT we will be Tech Talking on the SoftwareONE Radio Network!

Microsoft SQL Server has changed in functionality and Licensing several times in the last 5 years. There have been a couple of changes in the way we purchase Microsoft SQL Server. However, if you are not paying attention close enough, you may need to purchase more SQL to keep what you have already paid for and are using in production. During the show, we will discuss these scenarios. We will also describe the best practice approach for aligning SQL Server Technologies to your business needs, allowing you to avoid over buying or over deploying SQL which could result in significant financial risks. We will also discuss how the new SQL technologies can be used to satisfy your business requirements through edition features, virtualization, and multitenancy. We will also discuss how Azure can either suppliment, enhance or even replace your SQL deployments to create a more cost effective and efficient infrastructure. So join us on Wednesday May 6th at 11:00 AM CDT and don't forget to call in with any questions that come to mind. We will discuss the answers on the air! The number to call is 347-637-1009.
