In a previous post, I discussed the reality that on average only 40% of a company’s ERP solution has been deployed. I bring this up again because of an innocent question posed by a client during a follow-up conversation related to a reference call he had received.

A DIY System
In my position at Spitfire Management, I spend a lot of time at my desk working on a computer, so I relish the opportunities to do other things away from the office. I consider myself somewhat handy. I take pride in doing a good job and doing it myself. I don’t mind getting my hands dirty and learning new skills.
TweetWe Should Be More Like Little Kids
As a parent, you learn so much from your kids. As babies, they teach us the wonder of creation and thus bring out our protective instincts. Later as they start to grow, we enjoy the simple things again as we see them through their eyes. Suddenly we find ourselves looking at the water coming out of the faucet and enjoy the expression of wonder on their faces and then the laughter as they touch it and splash it.
Seeking Answers in Work and in Play
I admit it: I’m a long time Sims fan. For those who don’t know, The Sims is a life simulation video game series, developed by EA Maxis and published by Electronic Arts. Some time ago I started playing the Sims 4. It had been years since I last played and, of course, the that vresion was different from previous ones. I often found myself with questions: How do I rotate objects in the room? How do I go to work? Is there some place I can eat while on a date?
Turning to the Cloud
I have a reputation for calling things as I see them. For example, by now, many of you know I’m firmly in the Android camp. There really is no technical comparison (like, who remembers 2012 anymore?).
I find it no surprise that one by one our clients are turning to virtualization and private cloud infrastructure. As far as I am concerned, Amazon’s AWS platform is the definitive winner here. Let me illustrate with a real life example. Sorry, this may get a bit technical.
