Truth... Maybe not the "getting drunk part" but I like drinking on patios.
I do like the outdoors but I do like getting drunk on patios too!

I don't know why my life sped up this week, but I feel like someone pushed the fast forward button on it. It's been fun but exhausting. Anyway. Today's card is the last I'll post with Grunge Me for a while...maybe. This one isn't grungy, though. It's crisp and clean, and as soon as I saw the stamp I knew I wanted to make a stylized flower with it. Okay, the sentiment is grungy. But the card isn't. Pear Tart and Bahama Blue. A Memento Ink match made in heaven. To do this, I placed the stamp very carefully with the central point at the center of my gridded acrylic block. I placed a pencil dot in the exact center of the card and lined that up with the central circle on the gridded block, rotating the card for each stamp! So very easy to get precise placement with that FAB PTI gridded acrylic block!!! And now for a non sequitur. Happy Canada Day to my friends to the north! Y'all rock!!!! And speaking of Canada, check out this ever so relevant little button the Canadian Jennifer Styles sent to me. Oh, she knows me so well! I'll bet y'all didn't know that the reason I have posted three OLWs in a row is because I don't want to get stuck with the odd numbers again. That really bothered me. And yes, the lack of punctuation and capitalization on the button bothers me. "I have CDO. It's like OCD, but all the letters are in alphabetical order as they should be." Now, I'm happy. And tired. I'm going to bed.

Harney & SonsEdit Company
Popular Teas from Harney & SonsSee All 423 Teas
Recent Tasting Notes
Did a side by side this afternoon with this and Teavivre's Golden Monkey. Harney on the left, Teavivre on the right.
I warmed the gaiwans, put in the leaf and covered while the water was heating. Visually, there are more golden tips in the Harney tea. The scent of the warmed, dry leaves: Teavivre has a smell of hay and dark molasses. Harney's aroma is malty brown sugar.
About 200F was water temp. 1:30 steep time.
Scent of steeped leaves: Teavivre was sweet dusty hay, Harney was a smell of cooked, wet leaf and rock.
Taste of cup: Teavivre was hay with some malt, mild with a minor, not unwelcome, sour note at the end of the sip. Harney was maltier than TV and sweeter in that brown sugar way, liquor is lighter in color by a touch.
Conclusion: I like the Harney better. Granted, however, that the Harney is fresher (2015) and the Teavivre is older (2014). So this wasn't an optimal taste comparison, probably. I'll still enjoy both. :)
Up first for today in the long weekend of not waiting to drink the favorites is this delectable GM. A practically perfect, consistent, GM. Lovely leaves and superior flavor. Such a smooth way to begin the day.
TBH, since the smallest size (aside from samples) is 3 oz, I have only purchased twice so I can only speak to probably 2 years but in those 2 years, the flavor profile was very similar.
It is really hard to tell these days. Seems like it used to be that they had a sale around Black Friday and Christmas that usually included free shipping. For the last year or so, they've been having sales of varying kinds and specificity about every week for a couple of days only. There is usually a free shipping w/ $25 purchase towards the holidays. I don't recall them generally having the 30-40% sales a lot of the smaller guys have, it's usually 10-15% and it's been on Breakfast Blends or on new teas or other similarly limited categories. Best way to tell is to sign up for their email notifications.
And to me, it seems pricey because you are getting 3 ounces at once. The GMs I buy from other, smaller companies runs about $8 an ounce as well so it isn't actually any more than I pay elsewhere.
less than a minute ago
$8 an ounce = $128/lb – this makes sushi-grade yellowfin tuna look inexpensive. This is why I asked about their most significant sale of the year. I already receive their email notifications and haven't yet noticed a compelling opportunity.
" … it's usually 10-15% and it's been on Breakfast Blends or on new teas or other similarly limited categories."
This is why I've been patronizing other Steepster-recommended suppliers.
Trying to ease my way back into tea taste. My tastebuds have been way off since that brief tummy thing after Christmas and my straight blacks just haven't sounded good. :( No matter. If my taste is changing again, then I'll either keep what I know were favorites or I'll have mass amounts for swapping. :)
Straight, this is still very good. Still not as good as I remember it being just 2 months ago. Now, add a teaspoon of cream and WOW! The honey and caramel just pop into your mouth and transform this into a full-on dessert tea. This is pure heaven on a very cold and getting colder night.
I see I've reviewed this before. Perhaps back when I was just getting into this type of tea? I'm not sure how I thought it was light before. Maybe just a different batch. It's been about a year.
This is simply wonderful. Deeply malty, fruity and cocoa-y. I forgot to look on here to see if I'd had it before when I grabbed the sample with this last order. If I had, I might have sprung for a full tin. It definitely goes on the shopping list now. Must have more than just a sample. Especially now that I'm looking at prices through the lens of per ounce, not just what the immediate cost is. This is comparable to other teas I like for the amount you get. The only downside is that my resteep was very lacking despite leaving it to steep about twice as long as the original time.
Light and smooth. Pretty liquor. The dry leaves are a pretty mix of gold and black. A bit of a malty taste. Somewhat easy to oversteep perhaps. I do like this quite a bit. If it were to go on sale, I'd get more. For now, I'll stick with a sample now and then.
It does have a polleny smell when dry. The smell when steeped reminds me somewhat of these honey cookies I make – like cooked honey. The tea base seems to be very light and inoffensive. Smooth. I thought the honey tasted a bit odd. I do sometimes have honey in my tea but it's usually when I've oversteeped it so maybe I just don't know what to expect. I'm glad I tried a sample, but I probably won't order it again. Nothing in particular wrong with it, just not to my personal taste.
There isn't much else to say. It's great hot or cold. It is difficult to oversteep and holds up well to multiple brews.
It fast became my favorite tea in my cupboard. Don't waste any more time any go order some and see for yourself!
I did not like this tea at the first and the second time I steeped it. I thought it was too sweet, and lacks the spice of ginger. But then I have increased the steeping time and have liked more. I have steeped since then for about 5 minutes, water at 90°C, and the sweetness have go down, and I can taste the soft taste of the oolong.
But still lacks something that reminds me of ginger. And the smell of the infusion is weird (mainly when i do a second steep of the leaves).
Today has felt like a Monday ALL day. Thankfully it was Thursday, as work days go it was the usual frantic phone calls and putting out fires here and there. Until my mom called and in a very curt voice told me I needed to come over as soon as possible to move anything I was storing in the apartment storage out. Longer story short…my brother and his girlfriend live in the apartment and want to expand it for more space into the storage area (which is huge). Of course he apparently wants to do this now. Awesome.
So now my dear husband and I will be driving an hour out and packing all this stuff up to try and find a place for it in our basement. This wouldn't be so bad had my inlaws not dropped off massive amount of their items as they try to sell their house. SO as you can see I've had a heck of a day!
When I got home I went to work making room in the basement and when I was done I was determined to have some tea…this tea. I haven't really had manny Keemun teas. So I thought I'd throw a sample of this with my order earlier this weel. Wel, it smelled chocolaty enough when I opened the package so I opted to have a brownie (gluten free) ok two brownies! Let me tell you the brownie only brought out the chocolate even more! Yum! I also noted the toasty flavor promised in the description.
It is very different from the Assam teas I am used to and I have to say I like different, I like it a lot. I'm not sure I'd drink it very often. Maybe a "break into in case of emergency" supply of sample sizes is in order? Yes I already have another Harney order building in my head. I'm so bad. :) I'm glad I opted to pick this one up….thankfully you CAN pick your tea even if you can't pick your family.
*Note I'm not mad at my mother…she was feeling pressure from my very impatient brother and let it out in my direction…an apology came 10 minutes later.
Another sample from Harney & Sons with my recent order. It isn't horrible, but I'm not sure it is a green tea for me. The Earl Grey Supreme I had this morning had just the right amount of citrus flavor to it, but this tastes like it has too much. I'm weird I know or my taste buds are off. I would drink it again in a pinch, but I don't think I'd order it.
This is my tea of the morning. I've been up for two hours now on and Sunday and I'm not happy about it. But I am happy to have a whole tin of this tea in my cupboard! It's funny it still smells like Fruity Pebbles to me – which is not a bad thing…just different! It certainly is a nice relaxing cup of tea to ease me into a day when all I want to do is head back to bed!
But I've got to pack up a nice flat rate mailer for TeaEqualsBliss of samples! Suppose I should go see what she's got so as not to duplicate! :)
A sample of this arrived with my recent Harney order. I thought I'd give it a go this morning. I'm not a huge Earl Grey fan…I like it, but it's a case of I like what I like and don't often branch out. Well, I may have to branch out after drinking half the cup! It actually reminded me of Fruity Pebbles in taste which in this case is not a bad thing. I really used to love Fruity Pebbles when I was little so this brought me back to a more carefree time in my life. That is one thing I love with Harney & Sons teas, they always and I do mean ALWAYS evoke a memory of some kind for me. The Bergamot was a little stronger in this tea, but it was mighty tasty. I did add a hint of sweetener to this one, but not too much so as to take away from the tea. Look out only other earl grey in my cabinet there is a new sheriff coming to town!
Oh yes, I think I just heard my wallet weep from my purse. :) A few friends and I are planning a trip to the shop and possible factory tour in the near future…adding this one to the list!
My fave Earl! And Diamond Jubliee tastes like a milder version of this, with an extra flavor added that does not come across as grapefruit to me, which is a good thing. Two grapefruit haters drank it with me and liked it.
I like EG Supreme better because I can taste the base tea and the bergamot is not too much. Earl Greyer is really good iced I think. :))
I'm feeling like that might be the case. I might have to do a side by side with them soon… perhaps this weekend! I've never tried the Earl Greyer Iced, but I will now!!
The general rule is 2 x as much for iced or cold brew teas. I would start with 5-6 grams of loose tea, and adjust according to taste.
Appearance: standard dark, broken, black tea leaves, with minimal stems. Liquor: dark brown – more brown than the red I often associate with black teas. Smell: So nice! Loose and brewed, there is a strong hazelnut flavor and underlying cocoa. I keep searching for hazelnut chunks. The smell is amazing. Taste: This is surprisingly sweet without milk or sugar. The hazelnut is quite pleasant, and there's just enough chocolaty flavor that it could stand in for a hot cocoa. Like many H&S teas, as it cools the flavor develops some citrus notes that don't really work with the other flavors. I don't think it needs sugar, but adding it does make it very decadent. Adding milk makes it a really good hot cocoa stand in. This may be my favorite milk and sugar tea so far. Very nice way to start a weekend morning. 8/10
I wanted to give this a try as soon as it arrived yesterday. But I was worried I'd be up all night as this is billed as their strongest tea! So I waited to try it on this cool (for now) July 4th morning. At first sniff of the dry leaf I worried that it was too similar to their Irish Breakfast, so much so that I took out my tin of that for comparison. Well, let me tell you they are two very different teas. This one is made from two very VERY dark black tea leaves. It says a Ceylon black tea and a strong black from India. I'm guessing Ceylon and Assam. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.
Wow is it strong! But it is good. There is a tiny hint of astringency (or I over steeped – which might be true) with my first few sips. Even that isn't bad, usually I find to be a huge turn off. I have to say it is bold, rich, and slightly oaky to taste and I like it a lot. I didn't add anything to this tea and I usually don't. I'm sure this would take milk and sweetener if you were so inclined to add it. I'm glad I bought the tin…would have been very sad had I only ordered the sample size!
Thank you Russel Allyn for sending me some of this Oolong – it is delightful!
The aroma wafting from my cup at the moment is captivating, smelling sweet with hints of fruit, flower and honey. The early infusions also offered a very creamy element to the flavor and texture, with the creaminess waning by about the fourth infusion.
A really delicious Oolong – I love it.
Today was a bad day, panicky and strung-out. I went out, drove about an hour just to get away, stopped in a Barnes & Noble for a drink. The B&N by my house has a Starbucks attached to it; they share an entrance but it's a Starbucks. This one was actually a Barnes & Noble Café. I don't know what it is – it might just be that I'm absolutely terrible at poker faces, or maybe just that I notice it more – but whenever I'm having a day like this the cashiers and random strangers around me all seem so much kinder than they do ordinarily.
I hadn't tasted any Harney teas before, and the barista was incredibly sweet. She was a middle-aged Indian woman with a soft accent, and she kept recommending me teas and complimenting me on my choice of cookie. Made my night. Thanks, barista!
I like this one. I walked over to the condiment station and tasted it, and it was just the perfect strength, although I'd only left the bag in for about a minute – really, just long enough to pay. It's minty and cool without much sweetness, and there's a little hint of herbal flavors underneath it. All I added was about a half-teaspoon of honey. Perfect.
This is the first Harney & Sons tea I've ever had, courtesy of Sandy.
I'm not the biggest fan of 'green' oolongs as of yet. It's not that they're bad, they're just kind of subtle, and not exactly that… you know… awesome.
However, the pomegranate flavoring of this tea just seems to be the flavor that tea guan yin needs. It's not overpowering at all in this tea, but it is very apparent. It works very well. Although, I don't taste any of the 'juniper' taste that I normally get with a TGY or assorted green oolongs (high mountain, monkey picked, etc). I'm not sure if that's just a matter of it blending with the pomegranate, or if this particular TGY doesn't have that quality at the back of the taste.
Also, if you should happen to be able to pick up a sachet of one of these… I recommend it for nothing else other than the comical value of the post-brew sachet. Missy was giggling so hard at the way the sachet expanded from the TGY almost to the point of bursting. She said it looked like a tea balloon, haha.
Oolongs expand soooo much! A friend just bought a tin of this and loved it, so i made a glass pot of oolong and let her watch the leaves expand. I said, "See that?". She said, "Yuh-huh, so what? It's big. OHHHH! I should buy loose leaf oolong!". That's my girl. Her one pound bag arrived Saturday!
Posting from Fresh To Order in midtown on my break. I plan on trying all of these eventually.
Much like the coconut green I tried previously, it's very lightly sweetened, which is something I like. I can't stand overly sweet bottled teas, like Arizona's, for example. The peach flavor is great. It's strong and realistic, and stands out the most. It isn't tart at all, though it is a bit astringent. The black tea they used is pretty standard, and just bitter enough for you to tell it's there. I can't really detect any complex flavors in it because of the peach. But this is good, especially during this heat wave. I would get it again if given the chance.
Got this in the tagalong sample. First off, this smells like orange soda tastes. It's sort of wonderful. It doesn't seem overpowering to me at all, but orange is one of my favorite scents.
The tea itself is a nice, smooth green, nothing special but a solid base for the flavoring. The orange is lovely, though I'd have liked it to be a little more tangy. It's sort of sweet.
I don't really have much else to say. It's a nice tea, but even after all five sachets I'm undecided on whether I want to order more or not.
This tea works really well for making Massala Chai tea from scratch on the stove top at home. The decaf has been a great option while my wife was carrying our child. The floral notes of the tea are very pleasing and blend well with the Indian spices we throw in the pot with milk. Let it cook at least ten minutes if you're making chai…
Thin needle leaves float on top of the water, unfurling to reveal their their pale green color. The liquor is a light silvery green. The flavor is at first delicate almost to a fault, but it expands quickly on the palate, moving from spun sugar to toasted artichoke. A shorter (2 min) second steep expounds the vegetal taste, while avoiding open bitterness. The mouth-drying aftertastes are of light fresh pine and sugar.
Those chinese green tea enthusiasts interested in more assertive flavors should look first to our new Luan Guapian or the time tried classic Lung Ching.
Do you ever buy a tea and you are just so sure that you will adore it, but then when you drink it your feelings are hurt that you are not madly in love with it?
I was so sure that I would be just as mad about this tea as I am with Paris.
I am not.
However, it IS a good tea and I do like it.
I have a feeling that I did this to the poor tea, my expectations were too high.
I just wanted to love it too much.
Deep Sigh
The nose on this tea is strong.
Almost like its trying to make sure you know it has chocolate in it.
But, the taste it better, it is a smooth tea and I do like the taste.
You really can not identify the black tea in there though.
I drank this as is, no sugar or cream/milk.
I did not want to mask what tea taste that was there.
I can see making this tea for company who do not drink much tea normally, it would be unoffensive to them, unless they do not like chocolate.
Now, I do like some Chocolate Teas.
And this tea is not terrible, we just are going to be friends though, instead of lovers.
I have some of this tea cold brewing, so I will return with a update on how this tea holds up to that.
Well, my opinion has not really changed in drinking it cold brewed.
It makes an all right iced tea, but I probably will not be cold brew it again.
As long as I think of this as a hazelnut tea, I like it. I agree that the chocolate is a little light.
I think a bit of milk/cream and sugar does bring the flavor out more in this one. But, I've never managed to get it to taste as chocolately as when I first drank a whole pot of it myself at a teahouse dinner.
I like this one. Tried it a few years ago at the bookstore and appreciated how unique it was. Recently acquired a pretty green tin of it which smells awesome after each opening.
I like the short tea bag string, the pyramid shaped bag, and looking at the little dry pieces in it.
The tea tastes like it smells, lovely, and with a quite prominent coconut taste. Its one of the few green teas I can enjoy. I imagine this tea will remind me of the south once I move from it.

From: Ashburn, VA
Region: Mid-Atlantic
Topic: Compost and Mulch, Planting, Herbs/Forbs, Shrubs, Trees
Title: Low maintenance replacement garden in Ashburn , VA
Answered by: Barbara Medford
QUESTION:We live in Ashburn, VA (Northern VA). Our house is 10 years old and the contractor grade plants have died. We are planning on digging everything up and re-doing the landscaping in our front yard - right in front of the home. We do not have green thumbs and don't have a lot of time to care for the garden due to kids. So, we would like to know which plants/shrubs are best to plant in this area. The old plants were azaleas and evergreen shrubs but the azaleas never bloomed. We would like low height shrubs and some plants that would provide color year-round, if possible. Also, is there a dwarf tree that would be good as an anchor on the end of the garden? Thanks.
This is a great opportunity, since you are digging the old plants out anyway. Before you do anything else, get some compost (you can buy it in sacks at commercial nurseries), spread it over the existing soil, and then dig it in. Compost in the soil helps with drainage, assists the roots in getting nutrients from the soil that they need, and has nutrients in it, too. You almost can't put on too much. When the time comes to dig holes for your plants, it will be much easier. We will recommend plants native not only to North America but to your area. Plants that have been living in an area for millions of years will be accustomed to the climate, soil and rainfall; thus, requiring less water, fertilizer and maintenance. If you are unfamiliar with the use of native plants, you might start by reading our How-To Articles Using Native Plants and A Guide to Native Plant Gardening.
You didn't say what your soil is (you may not know), but, again, natives to your area will like that soil, whatever it is. You also didn't say how much sun or shade your garden area has. We consider "sun" to be 6 or more hours of sun daily, "part shade" 2 to 6 hours of sun, and "shade," less than 2 hours. When we list plants we are suggesting, we will detail what kind of light requirements each plant has, and you can make your decisions accordingly. We will go to our Recommended Species section, click on Virginia on the map, and from there select on "herbs" (herbaceous blooming plants) under Habit. We will repeat that search on "shrubs" and "trees." You can duplicate this search, making your own selections by specifying bloom time and color, soil moisture and so forth. These plants are all commercially available, and if you have difficulty locating your selections, go to our Native Plant Suppliers section, type in your town and state in the "Enter Search Location" box and you will get a list of native plant nurseries, seed companies and landscape and environment consultants in your general area. They have contact information and maps, so you can check with them first before you make a shopping trip. Follow each plant link on our list to get more information, including (if you wish) going down to the bottom of the webpage on each individual plant to a link to Google on that plant.

NFC Forum and Bluetooth SIG Publish Developers Guide to Use NFC for Bluetooth Pairing
The NFC Forum, a non-profit industry association that advances the use of Near Field Communication (NFC) technology, and the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG), the trade association responsible for the development, promotion and protection of the Bluetooth specification, today announced the publication of Bluetooth Secure Simple Pairing Using NFC. The new document provides developers with examples of how to implement Bluetooth Secure Simple Pairing (SSP) using NFC to take maximum advantage of both technologies when they are present in the same device. The publication is available for free download.
Bluetooth Secure Simple Pairing Using NFC describes the interaction of Bluetooth technology and NFC during SSP in detail and provides examples of both negotiated and static handover in the most feasible use cases involving both technologies. Developers will find the examples useful guides for their own work, including:
Pairing devices with little or no user interface (such as headsets and pedometers) to smartphones
Pairing devices with extensive user interfaces (such as cars) to smartphones
Pairing devices such as TVs and smartphones to share photos or to use the phone as a remote control
"Since its founding, the NFC Forum has worked hard to advance the market for NFC solutions - first by creating 16 technical specifications, and now, through collaboration with groups such as the Bluetooth SIG, to guide the development of solutions that build upon those specifications," said Koichi Tagawa, chairman of the NFC Forum. "Working with the globally recognized and embedded Bluetooth standard makes perfect sense for NFC. It reaffirms our commitment to broadening the commercialization of NFC solutions and providing new benefits to consumers."
"With over four billion Bluetooth technology enabled devices in market today and nearly two billion coming online in 2011 alone, Bluetooth technology has massive scale, support and runway for aggressive growth, and we're excited to help developers leverage NFC in the right scenarios," said Michael Foley, Ph.D., executive director, Bluetooth SIG. "The beauty of this collaboration is that the SIG, working with the NFC Forum, provides developers with even more design options for connecting Bluetooth devices. For those scenarios that make sense, and where both technologies are available, designing with Bluetooth Secure Simple Pairing using NFC should further empower developers to create great consumer experiences."

A forensic examination into the death of a Te Aroha woman has raised more questions than it has answers, police say.
The 28-year-old woman was found dead at her Stanley Ave house yesterday morning.
Due to the sudden, unexplained nature of her death, the police this morning began conducting a forensic examination to look for anything suspicious.
But police area investigations manager for Eastern Waikato, Detective Senior Sergeant Graham Pitkethley, said an autopsy carried out in Auckland today to try to establish the cause of death had been "inconclusive".
Pitkethley said they would now have to wait on the results of further forensic examinations, including toxicology tests, to find out what happened.These tests were expected to take some time.
"At this point in time the woman's death remains an unexplained sudden death," he said.
Pitkethley said an examination of the Stanley Ave property was continuing today as were inquiries with residents in and around the immediate area.
"The woman's death is not believed to be linked to any other matters that have taken place in Te Aroha in recent days."

At VMworld this year, both in San Francisco and Barcelona, VMware CEO Pat Gelsinger introduced the concept of the Software-Defined Datacenter (SDDC). This builds on the concept that as more and more of the Data Center becomes virtualized (servers, desktops), delivering greater cost-savings and agility to customers, software-defined automation and functionality (network, security, storage, backup) become the next logical steps to help IT deliver greater value to the business.
As with any new technology or vision, there are often many questions about how this will impact the market, how it will affect IT organizations. Wikibon did a nice job providing their view on "Software-led Infrastructure". It's one of many attempts that I've seen to start trying to put a scope around this concept. Some portions are agreed upon, while others are creating some headaches.
I created this short FAQ to help answer some of those questions:
1. VMware is using a new term, "Software-Defined Datacenter" (SDDC), at the center of the 2012 conference. What is Software-Defined Datacenter?
[Steve Herrod blog]. Software Defined Data Center is VMware's vision that greater business value can be created from IT when intelligent software is abstracted from standardized hardware. In the simplest technical definition, it is the separation (or abstraction) of the "control plane" (configuration, topology awareness, management, operations) from the "data plane" (moving data, storing data).
1a. Is there a clear spelling of this term?
- Meh. Maybe, but it will have at least 3-5 variations in 2013. Just call it "SDDC" and save yourself a lot of auto-correct headaches.
2. Is there a clear, agreed upon definition (or standard) for Software-Defined Datacenter at this time?
- Software-Defined Datacenter is not defined by an existing standards body (eg. IETF, ITU, NIST), but rather it is vision for the evolution of how Data Center environments will become more flexible in responding to business demands. SDDC builds upon the abstraction that server virtualization has created and extends this to broader elements of the Data Center (eg. network, storage), as well as expanding the roll that automation will play in the future.
3. How is "Software-Defined Datacenter" different than "Cloud"?
- Cloud (or Cloud Computing) is fundamentally a new operational model for IT, where resources are delivered on-demand. While Cloud uses technologies such as virtualization or converged infrastructure, it's primarily about the shift in delivery and consumption of IT services. Software Defined Data Center is the next evolution of the underlying technology, where software delivers greater levels of intelligence and value, on top of standardized hardware.
4. Does Software-Defined Datacenter eliminate the need for traditional Data Center hardware?
- No. There will still be a need for physical serves (CPU, memory), network devices to connect ports and deliver bandwidth, and devices that can store data on flash/disk/tape. But the trend in the industry is that these devices are becoming more standardized on x86 chips, mass produced memory/disks and mass produced ASICs. This trend should allow faster, more simplified "fabrics" (interconnecting servers, networks and storage) to be built, with the intelligence for policy, security, operations to continue to move into software, which is faster to develop and adapt to changing business requirements. Leading companies have been shifting their product strategies to embrace this trend for the last few years.
5. Which market segments does Software-Defined Datacenter target, or which use cases?
- Software-Defined Datacenter technology are applicable to markets of all sizes (Enterprise, Mid-Market, Service Provider), but the initial adopters have been large Service Providers that are attempting to solve challenges with large-scale Data Centers. As the competition for Public and Hybrid Cloud services increases (Amazon, Google, Rackspace, Microsoft, Cloud Service Providers), the need to drive greater operational efficiency, and associated costs and time-to-market, is pushing them to solve problems in new software-centric ways.
- As more Enterprise and Mid-Market customers adopt Private Cloud and deliver IT-as-a-Service, I also expect SDDC technologies to evolve to solve challenges at different scale, as well as user-centric challenges such as BYOD.
6. How will Software-Defined Datacenter impact IT organizations?
- Even more than ever, the current era of IT is ultimately defined by rapid change, in terms of new devices (smartphones, tablets), new application consumption models (PaaS, SaaS), or converging technology silos (virtualization, converged infrastructure). Software-Defined Datacenter is the next step in converging functional areas, while attempting to give IT the ability to respond to business challenges faster.
7. Is Software-Defined Datacenter a competitive threat to traditional hardware companies?
- As mentioned above, Software-Defined Datacenter does not eliminate the need for physical hardware within the Data Center. Rather it is a vision to enable customers to better take advantage of the trend towards delivering software intelligence on standardized hardware. As with many technology transitions, there are opportunities to evolve technology portfolios, evolve business models and unlock new partnership opportunities.
8. Is Software-Defined Datacenter explicitly linked with open-source technologies such as OpenStack, OpenFlow or Open vSwitch?
- While there are open-source projects today that will have an influence on Software-Defined Datacenters, by no means does this mean that this is the only delivery mechanism for customers to obtain the technology needed for this IT technology evolution. A few examples of this:
- VMware's acquisition of Nicira - while Nicira was a major contributor to the OpenStack Quantum project (network virtualization) and the Open vSwitch project, which are both open-source, their core NVP product was a commercial offering.
- OpenFlow is a standards-based protocol for network virtualization that can be implemented by any vendor, for either open-source or commercial products.
- "Project Razor" is an open-source project that was jointly created by EMC and Puppet Labs to deliver advanced server and application automation for Data Center and Cloud environments. The software can be used with either commercial products (eg. VMware vSphere, Cisco UCS, etc.) or open-source projects (OpenStack, KVM, CloudFoundry)
