Hello and Welcome,
Our November Main Meeting will be held on Tuesday
and Alex Zaharov-Reutt's message is below.
Robert Israel will also be giving a tutorial at
the meeting which he has titled
"To SAN or to
NAS?"
We've all heard the
terms Storage Area Network (SAN) and Network Attached Storage (NAS).
But what are the advantages and shortcomings of
the two concepts? When should you deploy one over the other?
How are these technologies evolving? The answers to these questions will
be given at the meeting.
Tuesday 26 November - Main Meeting - 5:30pm
for 5:45pm - 8:30pm
Can you
believe it? It’s nearly time for the last main meeting of the year,
Tuesday the 26th of November, complete with mini mid-meeting Christmas
party and nibbles for our loyal main meeting attendees.
This month we will learn about Project Ophelia and
the quest to give you your own “Personal Cloud Access” on a USB-style
stick.
Our presenter is impressively named Aarron Quach,
Sales Engineer at Dell, who will be demonstrating Project Ophelia in all
its glory - and end-user usefulness!
Here the blurb we’ve received to give us a taste
of what to expect at Tuesday’s Main Meeting:
“Looks like a USB flash drive, performs like a computer. Securely access personal and professional content from any compatible display, in virtually any room, wherever you go.
“Display your presentations or play your online
games without a laptop or tablet. The ultra-compact Project Ophelia is
extreme mobile computing, turning any display with an MHL or HDMI port
into a high-quality window to the cloud.”
So… if you’d like to know how to carry around your
own personal cloud access device in your pocket, while getting a
front-seat view into one of the new futures for mobile computing, don’t
miss our November main meeting!
We’ll have all our regular segments, too, from
Q&A to news and more, so… see you there!
Cheers
Alex.
