One of my biggest pet peeves with VMware VCenter and Hyper-V VMM (Virtual Machine Manager) is the remote console feature of the virtual machines. Often, there is some underlying reason (Java, HTML5, Flash, etc) that the remote console does not work. With Citrix's XenServer, I have never had that issue. No matter what endpoint I install the XenCenter client on, it just works. That's a huge relief when providing remote assistance for customers who have XenServer. I know that I'll be able to get to the virtual machines.

We are proud to announce that we have achieved NetScaler Gateway Service certification!

What is NetScaler Gateway Service? Glad you asked. It's NetScaler Gateway as a services - NGaaS.

The Geeksultant

I am always promoting my own business on LinkedIn and other online venues. Well, truthfully, that's why we are on LinkedIn and other such sites to promote ourselves and/or our businesses. It's what we do. Today I am promoting someone else and their business. My wife. She is an accomplished folk artist and art teacher. One of her businesses is a mobile painting studio. She brings the art class to your home or business. It's called Artzy Party. She brings easels, paint, brushes, aprons, drop cloths, the whole nine yards and sets up a mini art studio at your location.

Recently I've been inundated by requests from a plethora of companies, customers vendors and VARs. Some, highly technical in nature. At some point, you have to take a step back and ask yourself that all important question, "What do they really want this info for, and what am I giving away for free?" You may think what I have just said sounds petty in nature, but hear me out.

My favorite line to tell my customers and partners is, "My knowledge I give freely, but my time will need to be compensated." Take that statement in for just a moment.
