CLOUDDROPPINGS

It's easy to look back and see what products should have been developed. It's a lot harder to recognize emerging technical developments for the impact that they will have, and lay out a plan for how those innovations can be channeled. For example, in 2007, long before "cloud" became so ubiquitous, I recognized the inherent advantages of Cloud Computing over traditional server/data center approaches, and began evangelizing those ideas, along with plans to implement enterprise-class cloud services... Before that, I developed expertise in requirements design and systems engineering, and did everything from advise the Air Force on Command, Control, and Communication (C 3) systems, to performing systems engineering for the Superconducting Super Collider and Voice-over-IP... Each system and product, whatever size, involved complete requirements definition, plus integration with engineering, vendors, sales, management, customers, IT, legal, marketing, and the executive team.
