EMC Extends Cloud Services, Buys Pivotal Labs
March 21, 2012 01:30 PM
Just weeks after EMC unveiled five security and risk management advisory services, driven in part by the need to 'provide its customers with end-to-end solutions', the storage giant's consulting arm is at it again, with a new set of service offerings. The company says the new additions to its cloud services portfolio will accelerate the adoption, consumption, optimization, and management of cloud computing, and will align to such critical IT-as-a-Service (ITaaS) elements as cloud infrastructure, cloud optimized applications, and end-user computing.Next-Gen Networking Drives IT Budgets
March 20, 2012 10:10 AM
Vice President Joe Biden once said, "Don't tell me your values, show me your budget and I'll tell you your values." If the vice president saw the enterprise IT spending budgets, he would rightly conclude that they place an increasingly higher value on their networks as the critical circulation system for all of their IT assets. As demands are placed on networks to handle more video traffic, migrate to 10GbE connectivity, connect mobile and wireless devices, and handle the increase in data traffic brought about by virtualization, companies are investing significantly in their networks in 2012.Cloud Enthusiasts Worry About Data Security

February 17, 2012 09:00 AM
Cloud computing is evolving to the point where unique clouds will be developed for specific industry verticals, such as healthcare, government and financial services, predicts a Cisco Systems executive speaking at the CloudConnect 2012 conference this week in Silicon Valley. This runs contrary to what some have called the Coke versus Pepsi rule--that companies would not want to be in multitenant cloud environments with their competitors.Flexibility Key To Next-Gen Networks

Microsoft is beefing up its private cloud offering by enhancing existing modules in System Center 2012, adding an application controller that disconnects apps from the OS, an orchestration module that automates application and virtual machine deployment, and unified management tasks. Microsoft is also reducing System Center 2012's licensing options from 113 different combinations to two editions--a Standard edition and a Data Center edition. This is Microsoft's big move into private cloud, which should make it easier for enterprises to get into the game, but it is also a first step along a longer path in Microsoft's march to private cloud.Cloud Computing Buyers Demand More, Survey Finds
