vSoup and Tech Field Day #6

vSoup Episode #10 is finally released, this time with Stu­art Rad­nidge (blog) as our guest. This episode is a bit unusual, as we didn’t really have a set agenda before start­ing the record­ing, so we jump around all of the place cov­er­ing a pretty wide area of top­ics. Be sure to check it out!

Tech Field Day #6 is approach­ing really fast, in fact it’s only a week away now! I will leave for Boston on Tues­day, June 7, for what looks to be a very, very busy but fun cou­ple of days. I don’t know what to expect, but Chris Dear­den has warned be that I prob­a­bly won’t be idle much.

This is the first Tech Field Day event that solely focuses on vir­tu­al­iza­tion and the pre­sen­ter list looks really promising:

VMware@VMware
Embotics@EmboticsCorp
Solar­Winds@SolarWinds_Inc
VKer­nel@VKernel
Syman­tec@Symantec

In addi­tion to these, there is a cou­ple of more pre­sen­ters that have not been announced yet. I’ve met a few of the other del­e­gates before, but the major­ity of them will be new acquaintances!

Since the entire vSoup crew is going across the pond, we’ll try to get some live vSoup record­ings done dur­ing the event!

The del­e­gates will also be attend­ing the VMunder­ground BPaaS (Bean­town Party as a Ser­vice): Tech Field Day 6 Edi­tion, so if you are in Boston on Thurs­day 9th of June, be sure to get a ticket and stop by and say hi!

vSoup Episode #7 “Every­thing is bet­ter with Bacon” is now avail­able for your lis­ten­ing “plea­sure”. With Sean Clark as our guest, we get into quite a few top­ics like stor­age and SQL vir­tu­al­iza­tion. Be sure to check it out!

In related news, VMware has cre­ated a Vir­tu­al­iza­tion Pod­cast direc­tory over on the VMware Com­mu­ni­ties por­tal. Way to go John, hope­fully the other pod­casts will fol­low suite so we can have one com­mon direc­tory for all of us!

The fourth edi­tion (Big Fat Pipes with Bob) of the vSoup pod­cast is now avail­able. This time we had the honor of hav­ing Bob Plankers as a guest. Bob runs The Lone Sysad­min, where his recent post “Blame” really res­onated well with me personally.

The fact of the mat­ter is that in many cases Bob is right, vir­tu­al­iza­tion admins ends up being blamed for everything.

No mat­ter who’s fault it actu­ally is, though, I’m the one-stop shop now for blame.

How very, very true.

Some times things just hap­pen, and before you know it you’re sit­ting in your in-laws liv­ing room talk­ing to an Eng­lish­man and an Amer­i­can via Skype. And to top it of; it’s all being recorded. And to make mat­ters even worse, we decided to try and make it a reg­u­lar thing. The record­ings that is, not the “in your in-laws liv­ing room” thing, that was a one-off for sure.

What I’m try­ing to say here is that yours truly, Ed Czer­win and Chris Dear­den has decided that we want to be rock-stars and start our own lit­tle vir­tu­al­iza­tion related podcast.


The first episode of vSoup is now avail­able, head on over to vSoup.net to check it out, and remem­ber, we are all vir­gins here. Be gentle.
