We had a special surprise guest from Anthony Ciccone PowerVS Director and Product Manager. What a great session Jes Kiran Ch put on and was so happy to have Anthony here too I snapped him snapping a photo as well. I was primarily the hype man and so glad to do it.

After lunch at #IBMTechXchange 2025 come to my #IBMChampion and IBM Chief Architect Jes Kiran session on PowerVS DR automation @IBM

About to get some new wrinkles in honor of Alan Fulton at #IBMTechXchange 2025 with fellow #IBMChampion Christian Sonnemans and one of the all time @IBM greats Chris Gibson

Ready for the up close and personal LIVE IBM POWER VUG session with Ross Coniglio #IBMTechXchange 2025 #IBMChampion IBM Let’s do this!

Front and center and early for PartnerDay. This after I dropped Neil Clark off at his first day of labs. I told him to be good, work hard, learn lots and make lots of friends. Let’s do this #IBMTechXchange 2025 #IBMChampion @IBM

I’ve been so excited to get to #IBMTechXchange 2025 for the prestigious #IBMChampion day I literally, yes literally, ran 5 miles to get to registration.

I've found how to get all the virtuals from lshwres but no physicals. Seems like a strange bug or something as I don't know why it would ever show up. But beginning of MAC surely looks like a real MAC.

I just upgraded a pair that were a tick over 900 days. Which is good, but you know Ive seen close to 2000 days before. Which is a great story but brings up maintenance concerns. :)

About to get Ansiblified, that’s a technical term right, by Stephen Ulmer at #ibmtechxchange with @The_Iron_Monger and @aklyachkin come join us in room 24 #ibmpowersystems #IBMchampions

Yes it’s bad. Casino floors empty because machines are down. Many cash only currently.

Just received a compliment from a client. Said he wasn't excited when told he'd be working with a new rep (me) and engineer (@POWERHAguy) but after working with us he loves us. Went on to say we are far more responsive, knowledgeable, and helpful vs their prev partner. 2 sites

Testing of a bit of a unique customer case is underway. They just got E1080s but have the luxury to test in their P9 Scale Outs first and see how it compares in their E1080. Should be interesting. If all goes well a case will be written. If not these tweets will self destruct.

Having worked on both.... It's a rocket sled on rails. @ArvindKrishna @ibm @robmcnelly @cgibbo @PetraBuehrer @petem59 @PowerMan4Evr @POWERHAguy #NerdHerd #PowerVC #IBMChampion #fintech #AIX #VIOS #PowerVM #IBMi #IBMCloud #Linux #Unix #Power10 #Oracle #PowerVUG

The benefits of IBM AIX are clear: rock-solid reliability, unmatched scalability, and robust security. If you want an operating system that can handle anything you throw at it, choose IBM AIX. #NerdHerd #PowerVC #IBMChampion #FinTech #AIX #Power10 #Linux #Unix #RHEL #PEP20
