Hello blogworld!  This is the customary hello world message. I
am a Architect Evangelist with Microsoft and my mission (at
least for now) is to make the world a better place by making
every application be more manageable, so we can enjoy our
weekends instead of being stuck in the data center trying to
figure out what is wrong with our latest application.  What does
that mean?  Well maybe you have heard of DSI (Dynamic Systems
Initiative)? Maybe you have not (you should at
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserversystem/dsi/default.mspx).
The point of all this is to embed the knowledge usually found in
someone's head, be it the IT Administrator, the Architect or the
developer, into software models and enable scenarios where the
software can (assist) deploy, operate and troubleshoot itself
based upon this captured knowledge.  Sound far fetched?  Not
really. Over the next few weeks/months/years, I'll be trying to
figure all this and more out. Why not come along for the ride?
