The Perils of Equipment Testing, Revisited
2 Mar 2010 | 8:44 pmBased on a deluge of questions in my inbox, I guess its time to re-visit the perilous topic of equipment testing again. As I recently noted, you can have rigorously designed tests executed in a conscientious manner that may still only provide an incomplete picture at best. And sometimes you get tests that reveal more about the tester than the actual product that was purportedly being tested.

Playing Well Together in the Data Center
26 Feb 2010 | 7:54 amSo I love being an evangelist, which is probably why its good that I am doing what I am.

22 Feb 2010 | 2:33 pm“Transparency” is definitely one of these words which describe very well the Cisco culture. This is pretty obvious for a Cisco employee, but I got many times positive feedbacks from customers on the willingness of the company to share with customers and partners, so that they can benefit from the experience of a large and innovative community. This is not different in the data center. Some other companies on the market may have a different understanding of the communication around their data centers in maintaining a great secret about…
