HP runs Transformational Experience Workshops around cloud, mobility, Big Data, software-defined where they take user data and help users create a plan says Johan Deschuyffeleer on #TheCube

Right now customers are focused on how to use Big Data. The next thing will be software-defined data centers, networking & storage says Johan Deschuyffeleer on #TDheCUBE.

When customers replace an old technology with something new & implement it in the same way as the old system they only get 50% of the value. We focus on increasing customer ROI & building customers for life.

A holistic technology services practice includes solid service level agreements and interoperability ensured throughout - good to see the big picture

Huge mindset change in IT to agile. Projects don't need a "boil the ocean" mentality, you can move forward with smaller increments says Sean Henkel, Spectrum Health, on #theCUBE

Traditional DWs are running out of gas. They can’t scale, they can’t perform, they can’t handle the new kinds of data, and they’re way to expensive -- Chis Selland, HP, on #TheCUBE

"our petabyte club is growing" says Chris Selland - double digits!

Vertica is HP's Big Data-in -a-box solution, It wants to be the Switzerland of Hadoop as the vendors evolve. That means customer friendly says Chris Selland on #TheCUBE.

@cselland drove the developer success at HP Vertica their platform attracts big time #devops guys

Spanning the data infrastructure across the solutions is a big enabler, add high performance and Vertica sounds like it's designed for big things

It's not just what we do, it's how we do it. HP will provide customers with great service, we do care about what our customers need. That gives customers confidence says Bill Veghte, HP EVP on #TheCUBE

Best-of-breed solutions are no longer sufficient says Bill Veghte, HP EVP on #TheCUBE. Customers need integrated systems that deliver high performance and deliver the opportunities customers need.

At the end of the day it’s what we do for customers. That is about technology, routes to market, business policies, says Bill Veghte, HP EVP on #TheCUBE.

@dvellante I'm bummed to miss the Bill Veghte interview. Bill, next time I'll be there

Metro Health built an entire campus, 20 buildings so far, to replace its aging hospital. It includes a cancer center, health club, hotel, & a Starbucks says BIll Lewkowski on #TheCUBE.

Integration trumps functionality says Metro Health CIO Bill Lewkowski on #TheCUBE. You need good functionality, but integration is what gives the experience.

Metro Health also needed to go digital, bring all patient records into one central core, eliminate the pockets of information and the paper charts and notes in peoples' pockets.

Bill Lewkowski was a terrific interview to kick off Day 2 coverage of HP Discover on #TheCUBE.

HP has stolen a march on IBM in flash definitely. But is it enough to take the market from EMC with its strong relationships with its customers? That will not be easy, even with clearly superior flash tech

Q Also what about David Floyer's new prediction that ServerSAN will eventually take the market. Does HP have a ServerSAN offering?

Funny in her history she skipped over the minicomputers that were HP's main products for 20 years.

Meg Whitman sasys HP has finally turned the corner & is back on sdtable financial futting. That is terrific news.

2Q earnings announced yesterday. $3B in cash flow. Announced further cost reduction, streamlining.

"Infrastructure matters to HP" says Whitman. Sounds like IBM's Tom Rosamilia.

David Scott likes to compare HP storage to Pure. I wonder how it compares with SolidFire -- 2.8 PB top end, same price point per Gbyte, sells mainly to the big cloud hyperscale outfits.

Also does HP have a ServerSAN solution? Wikibon's David FLoyer says this is the future in storage: http://wikibon.org/w...

Looking forward to hearing more about Heleon tomorrow in #TheCUBE and in particular, does HP have a PaaS for developers as AWS & IBM (BlueMix) have? No mention of that as yet.

Also, what HP software is moving to Heleon. In particular will HAVEn be available to support user Big Data analysis in the cloud?

Robert Youngjohns just said they are working on HAVEn-as-a-Service, so it is going online to support capture & analysis of Big Data from cloud sources. Very important long term.
