Stellar Quarter for Cisco as US Operators Open Their Wallets

Thu, 17 May 2012 19:26:45 EDT

with Cisco being the only vendor to buck the overall market trend. Cisco's Q1 revenues in this segment were 2% up on Q4 2011, while all other vendors experienced sequential declines. Cisco's market share jumped to 56% in the quarter, while it averaged 50% for 2011. Alcatel-Lucent can have some reasons to be cheerful; while its revenues dropped off from Q4, they were up year-on-year (albeit relative to a poor Q1 in 2011). Alcatel claimed 17% of the Q1 market, slightly up on its overall 2011 market share; it also maintained its number 2 ranking for the second straight quarter, keeping Juniper pegged third. One positive indicator for Juniper was that sales did bounce back strongly in North America after a very soft fourth quarter.

Big Data Brings Big Changes

Thu, 17 May 2012 15:23:00 EDT

The explosion of big data and the need for faster data are spurring a search for data scientists as well as data architects. It’s no secret that rocket .. err … data scientists are in short supply. The explosion of data and the corresponding explosion of tools, and the knock-on impacts of Moore’s and Metcalfe’s laws, is that there is more data, more connections, and more technology to process it than ever. At last year’s Hadoop World, there was a feeding frenzy for data scientists, which only barely dwarfed demand for the more technically oriented data architects.

HP Will Reportedly Lay Off 10%-15% of Workforce

Thu, 17 May 2012 14:53:00 EDT

An HP source told Business Insider that HP is going to make “massive” job cuts of 10%-15% of its workforce of 324,600 people. Bloomberg then picked up the tambourine and said the number is more like 8%, or 25,000 people. Factoring in attrition, early retirement and shifting jobs offshore, Business Insider reckons “HP’s total workforce numbers won’t reflect all of the cuts.” It thinks “we might also hear that HP is not going to rip the bandage off in one fell swoop, but will do one modest layoff in 2012, shift more work to offshore workers, and trim the workforce more over time.” It’s expecting to hear that HP Services is having “another abysmal quarter” and that “HP’s outsourcing units could be particularly hit hard with whatever layoffs come and many of their jobs moved offshore. We’re hearing that people with eight-10 years of experience – or are at the top of the salary charts – are the most vulnerable.”

API-Aware Traffic Management

Thu, 17 May 2012 14:00:00 EDT

As I mentioned in my last blog post, the promise of cost reduction is compelling many enterprises to move their workloads into the Cloud but many IT leaders are reluctant to do so, for fear of compromising the security and availability of their services. These concerns are well-founded but the benefits of Cloud are too great to ignore. To obtain these benefits, companies must adopt techniques that protect against the attendant risks, without compromise. Many people are familiar with Layer 7’s industry-leading security functionality, so it’s no surprise that I’d recommend using our Gateway technology to protect connections from on-premise infrastructure to off-premise Cloud services. The flexibility of deployment options we offer makes it possible to create a network of secure on- and off-premise endpoints to meet the most stringent requirements. This covers security but what about availability?

Mind the Gap - Three Gaps to High Velocity Pipeline and How to Cross Them

Thu, 17 May 2012 12:45:00 EDT

As Online software service providers of all flavors try to create high velocity sales and marketing businesses, they would do well to mind these three gaps: The "It's Not Your Time" gap The "It's Not My Job" gap The "Window Shopping" gap 1) The "It's Not Your Time" gap 2) The "It's Not My Job" gap 3) The "Window Shopping" gap

IBM Pushing Forward with SmartCloud

Thu, 17 May 2012 12:24:00 EDT

The big, old-line enterprise IT vendors are now all-in, or close to it, with cloud computing. This may make things seem less exciting than a few years ago, when a flurry of startups were pushing the envelope and grabbing the headlines. But it's a good thing for IT buyers, and not necessarily a bad thing for the smaller companies that are now doing partnership deals with the big dogs and occasionally been bought out by them. IBM is a case in point, as it moves ahead with its SmartCloud Services strategy. The latest stats from Big Blue say there are now 1 million users of enterprise apps, more than $100 billion (with a nod to Dr. Evil) in revenue, and 4.5 million daily client transactions in the IBM Cloud. Forget all that early and some of that current talk about saving money. “Cloud is more than just about gaining efficiencies and cost savings, it's about driving...fundamental innovation,” according to Paul Loftus, general manager, IBM Global Technology Services. This no doubt comes to a relief to large-company IT execs, who really don't need their bosses harping on them to save money save money save money every day. They need to create cloud infrastructures that are flexible, clever, and future-proof more than they need to focus exclusively on cost. Lots of Stuff Going On One recent development finds TopCoder, touted as “the world's largest Open Innovation Community of digital creators,” moving its global community of more than 400,000 developers to IBM SmartCloud Enterprise. IBM has also said the beta period of its SmartCloud Application Services (SCAS) has finished, as it “is expanding to a full pilot with new customers.” The company says it's added a range of new customers in health care, international development, retail, manufacturing, and academia. And whither those exciting cloud companies of yore? IBM notes it's added several of them as new ISVs and partners, including AppZero, Cloud Prime, Cohesive FT, Convertigo, Corent, Jaspersoft, NViso, SOASTA, Sproxil, SugarCRM, Vacava, Vision Solutions, and Zementis.

Who Is Using OpenStack?

Thu, 17 May 2012 12:00:00 EDT

Two years ago, Rackspace joined a global collaboration of developers and cloud computing technologists to create an open source cloud computing platform that can be used with both private and public cloud formats. Now the code for the program, OpenStack, is freely available and is being used by a number of corporations, service providers, researchers, data centers, and others. Based on the growing numbers of companies turning to OpenStack, the original developers were obviously onto an idea proven popular. But why have companies turned to it? “We chose OpenStack because we want to help enterprise IT deploy and manage applications on OpenStack clouds. Scalr builds enterprise open source Cloud Management software designed to allow IT administrators to set quotas, budget alerts, and access control to their users, and introduce automation and agility tooling,” said Sebastian Stadil, CEO of Scalr, a cloud management company. “We have customers building massive hybrid clouds that want to be able to extend into OpenStack data centers.”

Cloud Computing Growing on the Businesses Priority Front

Thu, 17 May 2012 11:30:00 EDT

A survey of small and mid-size businesses found an interest in harnessing technology to improve business efficiency. Midsize businesses are turning to IT investments to grow their businesses and the larger the organization, the more likely it is to cite technology as having the greatest potential to increase productivity, according to a new survey of midmarket companies by Deloitte. The study shows cloud computing emerging as an investment priority. When asked what types of investments companies were likely to make in technology, 40 of the respondents cited cloud computing. That's close to automation of business processes (46 percent) and data analytics (41 percent), according to eWEEK. "Interestingly, there seems to be a greater recognition of the benefits of cloud computing," the report stated. "In our September 2011 survey, it was recognized as a distant fourth as a means to increase productivity. In this survey, it nearly equaled data analytics and business intelligence in terms of likely investments."
