Whether you are looking for news about NonStop, NS SQL, GreenLake, a cloud experience and more, it is hard to overlook just how well HPE is performing in the marketplace. The news certainly looks good for Nonstop in 2021. In former times, it was the town crier we relied upon for the news of the day. It therefore comes as no surprise to hear that down through history,     such news was often misconstrued. Semantics, emphasis, a wrongly placed punctuation mark can play havoc with what may have been communicated. I am always encouraging my readers to check things out for themselves as my take on the news may differ from what you read elsewhere. Indeed, I will take that as a complement should you follow the links I provide in many of my posts. When HPE released its financial results for Q1, 2021, the response was mixed to say the least.

The mega-vendors who are the big purveyors of cloud computing are battling it out over market share and all the time, the questions keep coming up. Can I afford not to mov...

Phone technology and products are constantly evolving. When it comes to NonStop it too continues to evolve and remains in synch with ever-evolving enterprise needs … Blame it on the isolation. Blame it on social distancing. Whatever the reason I have been listening to satellite radio a lot of late as I have been driving all over town doing the family chores. By way of a brief update, Margo is now well on her way to recovery following her accidental braking of her leg a few days before Christmas. All the same, I have been doing double duty keeping the house in order. Then again, irrespective of who lands a task we are both only too willing to just get things done. On this one occasion while out and about, as I listened to the Margaretville station, on came the song One Particular Harbor and being the sailor I once was, it always tugs at my heartstrings. However, I almost forgot this verse: I used to rule my world from a pay phone And ships out on the sea But now times are rough ...
