A tribute to Turing, the father of modern computing
“The past is a foreign country—they do things differently there.” It’s a saying that rings especially true in the world of technology. But while innovating requires us to focus on the future, there are times when it’s important to look back. Today—the 100th anniversary of Alan Turing’s birth—is one such moment.

You May Be Evolving, I Just Want It to Work
Data center business models seem to be evolving nowadays. This evolution can be quite a tricky thing as scientists now view the evolutionary model as more of a shrub than a tree. What this means from a practical perspective is that you are as likely to evolve yourself right out of existence as you are to taking your place as the next link in the chain.

Sights and Sounds of Datacentre 2012: Christian Belady
This morning I sat in on Christian Belady’s presentation at DataCentre2012. I will post small blips about things that interest me as the conference continues.
Both Christian and Laurent Verneray of Schneider each identified 5 megatrends. Interestingly while there were common themes between them at a high level, they attacked the trends from different altitudes of the data centre problem space. Both discussed the coming pressure on water as a resource.
