Just wrapped my 1st blog post in over 5 years. Felt good to knock the rust off. Should be posted next week.

G’Morning @united. Your app is great, but needs some help this AM.

Go Blue!

Wanted to give a shout out to Troy at @SweetwaterSound - thank you for all of the support. You rock! ❤️‍🔥🎸🤘

Your legacy storage is squandering your flash. VAST Data is here to help you take it back. While the rest of the industry faces long delays waiting for flash allocation, VAST customers are 6x-ing their capacity with the drives they already own. Today, VAST launches VAST Amplify to eliminate the "replication tax" and turn fragmented silos into a high-performance AI data plane. 3% overhead. Up to 8:1 reduction. Zero wait time. Efficiency is the new supply. Learn more by visiting: vastdata.com/usecase/ssd-sh…

In the office, & I just looked down. Yup.

In today's news: VAST Data and @googlecloud have partnered to address the challenge of hybrid AI data sprawl with the first fully managed service of the VAST AI Operating System on Google Cloud. Enterprises want to run AI where it performs best but fragmented storage and costly migrations often stand in the way. This expanded partnership makes data placement a choice rather than a constraint. The VAST AI OS leverages the VAST DataSpace to allow enterprises to seamlessly connect on-prem clusters with Google Cloud, eliminating complex migrations and instantly making data available wherever AI runs. The result: a fully managed AI OS on Google Cloud that unifies hybrid data with intelligent streaming, removes migration drag, and keeps GPUs fed – so organizations can deploy AI faster at lower cost with consistent, compliant data close to compute resources: vastdata.com/press-releases…

This just in: He’ll froze over ;)

A new Frontier AI Factory in Memphis, co-built with @togethercompute, launches in early 2026! Designed to power demanding AI workloads — featuring @nvidia GB200 NVL72 systems, @DellTech’s liquid-cooled Integrated Rack Scalable Systems, and @VAST_Data's AI storage platform.

How do you define disruptive technology? How about a $1.17B agreement between @VASTDataAI & @CoreWeave to extend our partnership and advance our efforts to build a new class of intelligent data architecture for #AI. reuters.com/technology/nvi…

Donald Trump doesn’t want you to see this picture. He’s literally destroying the White House.

Is it just me, or is it simply impossible to connect an @apple MacBook to @united WiFi?? IOS devices work w/o an issue - with the same network settings.

The @packers don’t look so formidable after last week’s loss to the @Browns and this week’s tie with the @dallascowboys.

@keithnorbie @sakacc @Lions You, me, Chad… let’s make it happen!

@vStewed @sakacc @Lions Solid. You should come to the MN game here….

@vStewed @Lions GO LIONS!

Wow! That was an impressive goal line stand @Lions!!

This aged well.

One of the silent stories of this week's flurry of UK activity is the @VAST_Data involvement in these super-projects. CoreWeave, Microsoft/NScale, etc. There's a whole lot of VAST's AI Operating system headed to Great Britain!

Times Square today 🙌
