Continue reading Webinar: Windows Virtual Desktop – some exciting announcements. Sign up hereDuring Microsoft Ignite 2019, last week in Orlando, Florida the Windows Virtual Desktop was a hot topic. A ton of announcements were made, almost too much to get a grip on. This weekend I took some time to sort them all out and dig in a bit deeper. The result, a cheat sheet holding all major, minor and community WVD announcements, straight from Ignite (including some personal thoughts) on a single A4 page (barley). And I can tell you, it’s much more than you think or have seen previously.

Thank you, to everyone who contributed, bought a copy, helped spread the word, or otherwise. It’s been quite a roller-coaster, and to say we enjoyed every moment of it would be an understatement.

It turned out that EUC-X was already taken (an unfortunate timing issue) and we were legally forced to come up with something else. Luckily we had EUCdigest as a backup, and to be honest, we like it… A LOT! Perhaps better even.
Continue reading EUC-X becomes EUCdigest, a name change. About to launch!Today I want to give you a heads up on something exciting we (and I’ll get to the who we are part shortly) are currently working on/developing.
Continue reading EUC-X… Heads up – A new and exciting community initiative is on the riseAfter months of hard work and community (that’s you!) efforts we’ve finally reached the point where we can say, our book: Byte-Sized: Cloud design principles and architectural recommendations is now available for purchase, the paperback version that is.

Continue reading Yes! It’s here, it’s live, our Community Byte-Sized book is AVAILABLE NOW !Yesterday, during the Citrix Synergy 2019 Keynote it saw the light of day, although it’s not generally available, yet.

Instead, the book, as a whole, is now available as a PDF download. I have also included an interactive Table of Contents (ToC), making it easy to navigate from the ToC to a specific chapter and vice versa.

Inside CitrixAverage time to read: 9 minutesThe idea behind this project is simple, we’re looking for as many Cloud related design principles, best or common practices, (funny) quotes, tips & tricks, and architectural recommendations as possible. Almost anything goes. Forget about AWS, Azure, Google, IBM, Oracle, and all others, it’s the concept that matters, not the underlying vendor – 99 out of 100 times anyway. It can involve SaaS, IaaS, DaaS, PaaS, RaaS, or whatever aaS you can think of – private, public, or hybrid Cloud are all optional. General recommendations are more than welcome as well, it doesn’t have to involve technology per se. Please, read on.
