3Par's storage combined with Netapp's file serving functionality. All
managed as a single pool of storage resources. Yes, its easy to see how this
would be attractive to customers. More efficiency for storage managers. To
me, this multi-vendor approach to unified storage makes a lot more sense than
single sourced unified storage. Unified storage should not be defined as
single source, but as consolidated management. You want to take advantage of
product synergies without limitations imposed by a single vendor.
This move is similar to one that EqualLogic made a short time ago when it
worked with Microsoft Partner AMS Storage to combine EqualLogic iSCSI
storage in a solution sold by AMS featuring Microsoft's Storage Server, This
solution features file and block storage all managed as a single pool of
storage resources. Its not hyperbole, we have customers that are a... (more)
The post from Anne Thomas Manes on the end of SOA has caused a bit of ruckus
in the IT world over the past week or so. Folks from eWeek and ebizq have
all blogged in response to this, as well as the numerous comments from
everybody in response to these postings and I figured I would join the fray.
For several reasons, businesses and organizations are being forced to do more
with less. With stagnate or decreasing IT budgets for 2009, IT departments
are going to have to invest in solutions and technologies that make them more
‘agile’, and retire legacy technology that hinders their agility.
Business what to reduce the time required to field new features/functionality
by an order of magnitude. Instead of years, months, instead of months, weeks.

costs. Businesses want to limit funds at risk to mi... (more)
In sales and marketing, it’s the ultimate question. How do you get the
right information in front of a prospect at the right time?
It’s especially tricky now that customers self-direct their learning
online.
As you grow your stable of customer case studies and success stories,
organize them so that a prospect can find exactly the type of story of
interest to him.
That usually means sorting – and enabling search of – your stories by
industry, type of solution, product and maybe geographic location.
Here are a couple of examples.
Major software company SAS organizes its customer successes by industry,
solution, technology, country, alphabetically, and with a "Search All"
capability. If they have a particular case study, the searcher will find it
with this thorough approach.
Oracle organizes theirs in a similar way, by applications, technology,
services, industry... (more)

It is an interesting point/counterpoint to read up about Virtual Desktop
Infrastructure (VDI) deployment or lack thereof. The industry definitely
seems to be split on whether VDI is the wave of the future or not, what its
level of deployment is, and whether VDI is more secure than traditional
desktops. There seems to be very little consensus on any of these points, and
yet VDI deployments keep rolling out. Meanwhile, many IT folks are worried
about all of these “issues” and more. Lots more. Like where the heck to
get started even evaluating VDI needs for a given organization.
There’s a lot written about who actually needs VDI, and that is a good
place to start. Contrary to what some would have you believe, not every
employee should be dumped into VDI. There are some employees that will garner
a lot more benefit from VDI than others, all depending upon work patterns, ... (more)

IoT & Smart Cities Stories By Pat Romanski  The standardization of container runtimes and images has sparked the creation of an almost overwhelming number of new open source projects that build on and otherwise work with these specifications. Of course, there's Kubernetes, which orchestrates and manages collections of containers. It was one of the first and best-known examples of projects that make containers truly useful for production use. However, more recently, the container ecosystem has truly exploded. A service mesh like Istio addr...

This is a short blog with a harsh message for Big Data vendors.
Camera fades in to Pastor Schmarzo heading to the pulpit…
What does the future hold for today’s big data vendors? Hundreds of startups are rushing into the big data market to stake their claim to a market that IDC predicts will reach $187 billion by 2019. Dang, that’s a big market, especially considering that the Global Business Intelligence market will only reach a trifling $20.8 billion by 2018 or the long-running ERP applications market is expected to reach a trivial $84.1 billion by 2020. Yes, the big data market opportu...
A recent argument with folks whose intelligence I hold in high regard (like Tom, Brandon, Wei, Anil, etc.) got me thinking about the following question: What does it mean, as a vendor, to say that you support the Internet of Things (IOT) from an analytics perspective? I think the heart of that question really boils down to this: What are the differences between big data (which is analyzing large amounts of mostly human-generated data to support longer-duration use cases such as predictive maintenance, capacity planning, customer 360 and revenue protection) and IOT (which is aggregating and com...

Public clouds dominate IT conversations but the next phase of cloud evolutions are "multi" hybrid cloud environments. The winners in the cloud services industry will be those organizations that understand how to leverage these technologies as complete service solutions for specific customer verticals.
