The HPE Corner

Published by: NonStop Insider

After all, there’s a very big difference between processing transaction inputs and sensor alarms.

Published by: InfraSoft

Frameworks are boring. Frameworks operate well out of sight of most users and when a major product is built around a framework, it attracts little attention. It’s the features that attract users and when users have business needs they look to vendors with products that have those features that they require. And yet, in today’s modern ... read more

January Social Media Round Up

Published by: NonStop Insider

Looking at where the most activity has occurred over the past month, it’s hard to miss how little engagement there was apart from numerous “likes” that appeared for nearly all the discussions launched over that period.

SunTUG Connect Florida

Published by: SunTUG

For the North American NonStop community this time of year fosters thoughts of warmer climates and coconut-covered shrimp in sweet chili sauce.
