Join Chad Sakac and I for a ‘Storage Smackdown’ Live Webinar

OK, I’m not crazy about the term ‘Storage Smackdown’ as it communicates an adversarial position between Chad Sakac of EMC and I. Chad is one of my ‘Best Frenemies’ and we both share a deep passion to help our customers meet their business objective through advancing their cloud computing initiatives.

In recent years we have authored joint blog posts and participated in a number of storage related sessions at VMworld events. We’ve presented topics ranging from design and deployment best practices to our views on the future of storage architectures and storage capabilities within cloud ecosystems.

Our good friend, Cody Bunch at ProfessionalVMware, has offered to host Chad and I for the ‘Storage Smackdown’ as a part of the Brown Bag live webinar series.

I can’t tell you how excited I am to participate in this event, so join us, won’t you? Register and mark your calendar for Wednesday, December 7th at 8:00 PM ET / 5:00 PM PT.

I assure you, the Technical Brown Bag will be informative and entertaining.
