The quick answer: It depends. The type of cloud services you select might be dictated by your IT budget, the core competencies of your IT staff, and your IT strategy and tactics -- meaning which applications you keep in-house, versus which ones you selectively outsource. To begin, let's look at the ...
New enhancements to EMC's Atmos Cloud Delivery Platform are designed to ease the way enterprises and service providers implement and access public and private cloud storage. VMware vApp packaging should simplify installation, and improved visibility and reporting tools provide the means to expand cl...
Green IT is not one industry. Instead, it refers to a number of interrelated fields that focus on designing, manufacturing, installing, using and recycling computers, data centers, electronics and other parts and pieces of information systems. And because of its broad reach, it means the possibility...
Oracle announced at its OpenWorld conference on Monday that it's ramping up its move into big data analytics. An Oracle big data appliance was one of the announcements made at OpenWorld 2011 by Thomas Kurian, Oracle executive VP of product development. Big data also featured prominently in a Monday ...
Google, until recently a piker in the patent-holding tech community, is rapidly beefing up its portfolio -- or arsenal, depending on how one views it -- of intellectual property. The company has acquired 1,023 patents from IBM. These patents are on top of the 1,030 Google acquired from IBM in July, ...
VMworld 2011 occurred a couple of weeks ago, but the energized crowd of 19,000-plus attendees and the raft of VMware and partner announcements that accompanied it make it worth revisiting. Virtualization and cloud have become nearly synonymous. In fact, a few wily vendors tend to use the terms inter...
A consortium of six major tech players calling themselves "Rockstar Bidco" won a $4.5 billion bid for 6,000 Nortel patents in June. The deal closed last week, but all may not be said and done. The Department of Justice reportedly intends to ask the consortium members just what they plan to do with t...
Intel's recently announced plans to acquire Fulcrum Microsystems, a privately held fabless Ethernet semiconductor company, may seem counterintuitive to some. Founded in 1999, Fulcrum develops integrated, standards-based 10- and 40-GbE switch silicon designed to deliver low latency and workload-balan...
When the first EMC-sponsored study aimed at determining the size, scope and implications of digital information growth appeared five years ago, its authors employed restraint with the title, "The Expanding Digital Universe." In the follow-up study two years later, "Expanding" morphed into "Diverse a...
Nortel awarded its 6,000 patents to the winning bidder, and it wasn't Google -- it was a consortium of six mobile technology leaders: Apple, EMC, Ericsson, Microsoft, Research In Motion and Sony. The group paid $4.5 billion in auction that took place over several days. Google set the starting figure...
The IT industry purely loves digital information and with good reason. Creating, storing and archiving documents consisting of 1's and 0's provides the foundation for thousands of business computing solutions and billions of dollars in annual sales. While the gospel of the "all-digital enterprise"...
EMC CEO and Chairman Joe Tucci called the company's "Smartest System" launch event in New York City, "not just largest in the history of the company but of the industry" -- but was that a fact or mere PR-speak? For my money, it was the former. The event found EMC playing at the top of its game with ...
It may be too late to worry about how 2010 impacted us all, but it is not too late to think about how it will shape events this year. In some respects, 2010 was not a year that changed any one course dramatically. Most of 2010 was built around some familiar themes: consolidation, M&A, emerging t...
