Q1: What is the HPE Public Cloud strategy, within their Hybrid Cloud strategy?
Bobby Patrick
@hpe's public cloud strategy is to partner with leading service providers – not offer a single HPE branded public cloud offering.
Bobby Patrick
Lead with #1 private cloud, make hybrid cloud management in multi-cloud world simple, and partner and integrate many public clouds

@bpatrick001 Wikibon will have Private Cloud forecasts out soon. Curious how HPE measures Private Cloud (what elements).
Ronald Gruia
For every $1 of AWS profit growth over the past two years, HP's combined profits declined by ~$0.40.

HPE will no doubt do some M&A to address hybrid cloud demand in areas such as SDDC & hyperconvergence.
Stuart Miniman
@rgruia if you've seen HPE Synergy - it is their answer for SDDC and in their words goes "beyond hyperconvergence". I don't expect a large acquisition in this space from HPE.
Ronald Gruia
SDDC will be key. But one thing I like from HPE is that it is trying to cover all angles. Even for hyperscale cloud providers.

The Cloudline servers,developed w/ Foxconn, marry the HPE innovation w/ Foxconn's low cost manufacturing...

Cloudine will be cost-competitive w/ ODMs like Quanta, which won server contracts from FB, AMZN & RAX
