…and encounter a Philadelphia ice storm! 

Last week was a great week again! Most importantly we had the opportunity to meet some brilliant people at Unisys, the key global IT consulting company.

Both the Open Source Computing Director and the Chief Architect of Open Source Strategic Programs were here to welcome us at Unisys’ corporate offices in Blue Bell, PA, and warmly welcomed our demo of Talend Open Studio. I bet TOS connectivity and interoperability are among our strengths that might meet some Unisys OASIS framework expectations…

Unisys is the first systems integrator that joined the Open Solutions Alliance, co-founded by numerous open source companies, including Talend (check out http://www.opensolutionsalliance.org for details).

Unisys also has an extensive experience with Open Source system migration and optimization, toward creating solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of their clients.

We probably should have checked the weather forecast powered by Unisys (http://weather.unisys.com), before trying to fly back to Boston and California… as we ended up experiencing a terrible late-winter storm that let us stuck at Philadelphia’s airport for 12 hours!
