Virtually There with Kevin Kaminski Episode 6: Emile Cabot

Emile is a local Cloud and Datacenter MVP I work within the Calgary area, he has spoken multiple conferences and co-authored several books. I take a moment to discuss Microsoft Ignite in general and some of his thoughts around Windows Server 2016.

Virtually There with Kevin Kaminski Episode 5: Tim Mangan

Tim has been a mentor of mine; he helped get Microsoft to recognize my community contributions when App-V was still referred to as SoftGrid. We developed an App-V master's class together though he is the one that is laser-focused specifically on App-V. I thought it would be good to catch up and see where he is at with his App-V tools, research and book publishing.

Virtually There with Kevin Kaminski Episode 4: Kevin Goodman

Kevin Goodman goes way back to when VDI was referred to as server based computing, he has a development background and founded RTO Software which was later acquired by VMware. I take a moment to catch up with him and talk about where he is at with FSLogix.


Virtually There with Kevin Kaminski Episode 3: Bob Kelly

Bob Kelly is a long time member of the application packaging world where he has been recognized as a Microsoft MVP, written books and has done public speaking engagements. He is currently over at Flexera, and I take a few minutes to catch up with him and discuss the current state of application packaging.


Virtually There with Kevin Kaminski Episode 2: Ruben Spruijt

In this episode I catch up with fellow MVP Ruben Spruijt who has taken a CTO position over at Frame which is a cloud based virtual desktop vendor. Join me as I find out what Ruben and Frame have been up to in the VDI space.

  Recently I took an in-depth tour of SupTool which is a cloud-based solution for ensuring Configuration Manager client health along with some other specific health checks for Windows Update using an architecture that mainly resides in the cloud. In the blog article below I take you on a virtual tour of SupTool and how it can cut down on the reoccurring maintenance of your endpoints while giving better visibility into the overall health of your environment.

Virtually There with Kevin Kaminski: First Episode!

  Before Microsoft Ignite I had an idea that I should bring a camera with me and interview different personalities in the IT business that I know and add them to my currently very small YouTube channel. The channel started with a couple of popular App-V videos, but I wanted to add some different content since I am often attending conferences and talking to my peers in the industry.

To kick off the series I've posted an interview with a co-worker and Microsoft MVP Marcos Nogueira. We chat about Azure and System Center along with the challenges customers face. To tune in just view the video below.
