As insightful a 45 minutes as one is likely to spend discussing the emerging space that is the software defined datacentre and, firstly disclosing myself as a card carrying member of the Chuck Hollis Appreciation Society, it is truly fascinating to listen to the insights of an industry veteran who, after having spent 18 years within the world's largest data storage company, has now made the decision to take the leap into a far more software centric organisation in VMware.
That said, without wishing too sound too Eddie Haskell on the point, Chuck is adept and quite the legend in recognising trends well before they happen and, more importantly, helping to shape them for the betterment of customers. My view is he's a force for good whatever the badge!
Kudos to my fellow #EMCElect brethren @mjbrender, @vTexan, and @intheDCÂ for a great G+ roundtable with the inimitable @chuckhollis.
