September 08, 2020 Your Data is Lying to You
The Premise: Is your data telling you the truth?
Facts are facts, but that doesn’t mean that your data is telling you the whole story. Data experts know that biases crop up any time we look at data, and this cannot be avoided. That’s why we need to be sensitive to these biases when making judgments and when planning data collection exercises. We apply these concepts to everything from sales metrics to the COVID pandemic to government surveillance. This episode reunites our social justice panel, including Leon Adato, Josh Fidel, Karen Lopez, and Phoummala Schmitt, with moderator Stephen Foskett.

August 25, 2020 You Should Roll Your Own Whitebox Storage
The Premise: Should you roll your own storage system?
As enterprise storage moves to commodity hardware and software, has the time come for businesses to consider building their own storage systems? In this podcast, we discuss the pros and cons of packaged enterprise storage solutions and consider how the market is changing. Many modern storage solutions, from VMware vSAN to cloud storage, are based on commodity hardware. And there are many instances where a production storage environment uses self-configured software too. But we still recommend sticking with a supported storage solution.

August 11, 2020 Wi-Fi Isn’t Always the Best Wireless Solution – The On-Premise IT Roundtable
The Premise: Is Wi-Fi the Best Wireless Solution?
In a highly-connected world, we rely on our technology to stay online at all times. Almost everything uses wireless today, right? But what kind of wireless does it use? You might be tempted to say Wi-Fi, but as it turns out, WI-Fi isn’t always the best wireless solution for your needs.

July 28, 2020 IoT Doesn’t Need Wi-Fi 6E – The On-Premise IT Roundtable
The Premise: Does IoT Need Wi-Fi 6E?

The standards for faster wireless communications are being adopted much more quickly. We have faster speeds and different spectrum allocations to work with. However, the largest consumers of the wireless space in the coming years are the ones that won’t be able to use those faster new speeds without a radical shift in direction. IoT devices use slower, older, cheaper radios. So, the premise of this episode is that IoT Doesn’t Need Wi-Fi 6E.

July 21, 2020Disaggregated Architecture Runs Best with Enterprise Hybrid Cloud
The Premise: Does disaggregated architecture run best with enterprise hybrid cloud?
Pure Storage Spotlight
In this episode, we are taking on enterprise cloud architecture, and specifically, the move towards disaggregated infrastructure. As enterprises move towards cloud architecture, a lot of companies are jumping in. Software solutions like VMware Cloud Foundation, for instance, drive the ability of enterprises to build a hybrid cloud. But there has been a lot of talk about architecture as well. The industry has seen a lot of changes in the last several years. There was a move towards converged, then hyperconverged, and now disaggregated architecture offers benefits for an optimized hybrid cloud (for example, Pure Storage and Cisco’s FlashStack). Is disaggregated the right move?

July 14, 2020 A Single Source of Truth Can Bring Justice to the World
The Premise: Could a single source of truth help bring justice to the world?
Continuing our effort to reconcile the perspective of enterprise IT nerds with the social upheaval happening all around us, the On-Premise IT Roundtable Podcast guests discuss the concept of a single source of truth. In IT analytics, we believe that one system or application has “truth” even if others disagree. Is this true of the wider world as well? What is the difference between data, fact, and truth and how can we leverage this concept to bring justice to the world?

July 07, 2020 IT Observability Principles Can Help Bring Justice to the World
The Premise: Could IT observability principles help bring justice to the world?

Technical people love clarity, facts, transparency, and data, but the world outside the datacenter is anything but. How can we in tech apply ourselves and our experience to promote justice and transparency in the real world? Why don’t governments, media, and the population at large know the facts about crises like the Coronavirus pandemic and the racial justice issues that are shaking the United States and the world? And what can we do to help improve the situation?

June 30, 2020 AI Can’t Do Much for WiFi – The On-Premise IT Roundtable
The Premise: Does artificial intelligence do anything for WiFi?

Today’s world is driven by software. Applications rule the tech space and they are increasingly relying on machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) to make better, faster decisions. But there are some technologies that don’t really take full advantage of AI. Can an algorithm replace a person troubleshooting? Is something at is as much art as science able to leverage the power of a computer to get the job done? Is it true that AI can’t do much for Wi-Fi?

June 23, 2020Orchestration is the Reason Enterprises Haven’t Adopted Containers – The On-Premise IT Roundtable
The Premise: Orchestration is the reason enterprises haven’t adopted containers.
Pure Storage Spotlight
Orchestration is almost synonymous with containers nowadays. One popular opinion is that maybe the reason enterprises haven’t adopted containers quickly is that people are hungry for a way to orchestrate containers that fits into their overall environment. Is this the reason why containers have yet to be widely adopted? Follow this discussion, featuring Jon Owings – Principal Solution Architect at Pure Storage and Cormac Hogan – Director and Chief Technologist at VMware, and decide for yourself.

June 16, 2020 Encryption is Ruining Network Security – The On-Premise IT Roundtable
The Premise: There used to be a time when the Internet was free, wild, and nothing was encrypted. With the advent of things like SSL and TLS, some network analytics and security folks are wondering: is encryption ruining security?

The world is encrypted today. Our traffic is being protected from beginning to end so our identities and data are safe. But how safe are we in reality? What about the traffic that we want to see? How can we protect against threats when everything is using TLS to hide from our tools? Is there a solution to figuring out how to see the unseen?
