Gurusimran Khalsa blogs at vbrowncoat.com. We’ve known each for a while – met first at VMworld, and then a TechField Day event – and we’ve been chatting on and off via skype for the last couple of weeks – mainly talking about VMUGs, and his ideas for a podcast. In this chinwag we talk around a number of topics including:

  • Cloud – why aren’t more people using it/”Cloud/VM” stall
  • DevOps – Phoenix Project – what does it mean for the average vSphere/vCloud admin? where do you start?
  • Certifications – Are they any value? is it worth it to get advanced certs?

We didn’t get to the topic about VMUGs because:

a.) i talked to much

b.) i kept on digressing

But hey, isn’t that the definition of a chinwag (I mean the digressions, not me talking too much!)
