The answer, Sacconaghi thinks, is a bunch of things: CEOs and their CIOs don’t believe in IT value as much today as they used to, even though they do still believe in it; factors such as commoditization have led to deflation in IT prices; customers are hesitant because various new ‘architectures” such as cloud computing,…

More on the Compuware go private plan, APM
Sell more APM, grow marketshare, probably over at 4-5 year term: The APM market is fragmented. We are the only APM vendor with more than 10 percent share. We can’t reach our potential without joining forces with the channel. No APM vendor has more than 20 percent share, and we aim to change that. If…

Cloud == speed, pt. 2, or, Developers moving at public cloud speed driving IT transformation
WTH: How do you see the path towards the software-defined Data centre? AB: What I believe is driving this trend is that developers and organisations are looking to move extremely fast. Developers are getting used to the paradigm of going on AWS (Amazon Web Services) and getting resources immediately instead of weeks/months of provisioning time.…

Hardware is the price variable
With EVO, VMware is pitting the hardware vendors against each other for deals that will likely involve hundreds to thousands of nodes in large enterprises, and the competition will drive down hardware prices and therefore the overall price of the EVO solution. If hardware costs less than it might otherwise without such pressure, that extra…

Treating OpenStack like a spec, not a stack at #vmworld
Good, thorough piece from TPM on VMware’s OpenStack and Docker stuff this week, inc.: The lesson to be learned from this is that OpenStack is just a framework for how the components of a cloud are controlled, but it does not prescribe any particular component for compute, networking, storage, or management. Treating OpenStack like a…

What VMware means when they say “hybrid cloud”
Gartner’s @cloudpundit has a great way of summing up VMware’s future-proofing problems when it comes to their strategy. tl;dr: they need to straddle two worlds, pre-cloud and post-cloud infrastructure. When VMware says “hybrid cloud,” that straddling of “legacy” IT and “real cloud” seems to be what they mean: That brings us to VMware (and many…

Teradici’s remote workstation access product paves the way for a new type of WaaS (451 Report)
As you may recall, I write about virtual desktop stuff from time-to-time. Teradici recently launched a new workstation remote access package for engineers and CAD/CAM types. My 451 report on the topic is out, co-authored with Scott Ottaway. Teradici is an interesting company in this space as they get most of their revenue (70-75%) from…

Facebook ads don’t work too well for \”enterprise\” types
I am going to sound incredibly churlish here but why on earth Lionel Messi could possibly like our stuff is well beyond my imagination. Flattering though it might be. The same goes for the 20 year career short order cook who posts cat pictures, the retired person who joined Facebook last week, the nurse with…

The “Enterprise Cloud”
Early on, vendors who wanted to compete with AWS would speak to the idea of an “enterprise cloud.” All the US Federal activity that AWS had been up to – including that $600m private cloud for the CIA – seems to nullify most of that. I think what will be more important is targeting the…
