An Unexpected and Fulfilling Journey

When I graduated from the University of Texas in May 1987 with a degree in Computer Science, the city of Austin was an emerging technology hub.  Ironically though, I had never heard of the company I had just accepted an offer from: Tandem Computers

That decision has led me to a career filled with remarkable experiences, enduring friendships, and lessons Read more…

Don’t Let a Failover Reveal Your Data Problems

Your recovery system is online. Replication is running, and the target database appears to be caught up. If production becomes unavailable, how do you know the data on that system is ready to support the business? Independent validation provides that assurance by proving the source and target databases match, exposing hidden discrepancies before a failover, migration, or downstream application turns them into a business-critical crisis.

Running full regression cycles across entire legacy applications is often impractical, and funding for comprehensive test automation is difficult to secure. As a result, teams need a reliable way to release small subsets of components selectively, execute partial installation scripts, and preserve evidence of origin for long-term audit history.

To understand real efficiency, teams need to separate two metrics: GPU allocation and GPU utilization.

Nonstop Trends and Wins

For most of the past decade, the conventional wisdom in IT has been a one-way street: everything moves to the public cloud. On-premise infrastructure was treated as a legacy holdover, something you migrated away from, not toward. I’ve spent a fair number of these columns pushing back, gently, on that assumption where Nonstop is concerned. It turns out

From the time we first heard the artificial voice of HAL in the movie, 2001: A Space Odyssey, we knew that there was future where similar dialogues would appear: “I’m sorry, Dave. I’m afraid I can’t do that.” Even though there was
