Je suis depuis 10 ans spécialiste au sein du "IBM Client Center" de Montpellier, en France. Je fais partie du groupe Systèmes d'IBM, je fais de l'avant-vente dans le groupe stockage, effectuant des workshops, benchmarks, briefings et démonstrations pour le compte des commerciaux IBM, en vue de convaincre les clients et partenaires. Auparavant, j'intégrais les ISV's dans nos solutions serveurs x86 pour l'industrie Telco. Auparavant, j'ai passé 7 ans en temps qu'avant-vente pour le groupe logiciel d'IBM, intégrant les ISV's dans nos solution logicielles pervasives. Encore avant, j'avais passé 16 ans en temps que développeur logiciel dans la division réseau d'IBM, dans divers secteurs tels que les protocoles réseau, la téléphonie, ou Internet. J'ai écris 2 "IBM Redbooks" sur IBM WebSphere (voir http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg247147.html et http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/sg247015.html ), et 2 "IBM Redbooks" sur IBM XIV et IBM Spectrum Accelerate (http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/abstracts/redp5183.html et http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/Redbooks.nsf/RedbookAbstracts/sg248267.html ).
