ID.4 or/vs Q4

Background Back in September 2021, I got to test VW ID.3. It took 2-3km of driving to realize that I’ll be getting EVs going forward. We already had solar power plant and we were already thinking of an EV, but never really got to test drive it. My wife was in a need of a new car; VW Polo was...

Spaces – uncomplicating your network

For past 5-6 years I’ve been in business of deploying cloud solutions for our customers. Vast majority of that was some form of OpenStack, either a simple cloud or a complicated one. But when you think about it – what is a simple cloud? It’s easy to say that small amount of machines makes an easy, and large amount of...
