Bert Latamore
Not enough plumbing in place yet for multi-cloud. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
What is the Dell-EMC growth sterategy? @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
#EMC also has a strategic alliance with #IBM. So it is hard for him to give a compelling keynote - he can't attack anybody. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Dell seems to be trying to reassemble the old IBM from the 1980s. All he lacks now is networking. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Growth strategy has to come from software. I don't yet see the growth strategy for Dell EMC. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
All flash arrays, hyper-convereged will be important. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Storage will be a critical beachhead that they will try to expand. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Cloud stuff is coming from Data Domain while they fill in their cloud strategy. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
#Cisco finally has bought into SDN & redoing its company around it. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
The same thig happening in the data center. everything becoming virtualized. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
These guys are hardware guys. Can the get the DNA to provide a software fabric thast will be the key differentiator. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
As david Goulden said on stage - Apps provide the value. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
The whole leadership of the Dell EMC company how have come from the two hardware companies. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Can they get the leadership to move to software as a core strength? @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Open Source has won in infrastructure. Google & Facebook are built on open source. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
#Cisco has chosen to embrace Open Source. Never bet against #Cisco. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Dell EMC is an infrastdructure company. Everything they do will be under pressure from Open Source. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
You have to be a software company in the new way. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Facebook & Google are very successful software companies who make little or no money from selling software. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
It's not the business model of software, it's how the software is being used in the business model. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
A lot of people have left EMC & are now running new companies. So the EMC culture is out there. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
I live in Boston. I lived through the #Prim acquisition,. #Data General was bought by EMC. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Those mergers were disasters because of the cultural conflicts. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
#EMC has had some shrinkage, but I have not heard any real horrow stories aboaut #EMC. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Michael Dell is an efficiency guy, so you have efficiency and effectiveness coming together. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
U cannot overemphasize customer touch. EMC has always been a high customer touch company. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
#Dell is a very efficient company. High touch is not an efficient way to run a company. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
I'm looking forward to hearing how this company is doing. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Hwo will they differentiate with cloud & IoT. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
#Cisco is saying the cloud is history, it's all going IoT. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
How will Dell-EMC get over the major cultural issues that have doomed so many mergers? @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
I'm going to test the story and how they will maintain customer contact. @Furrier #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
#HPE has sthe better story with its configurable infrastructure. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Dell is still working through this huge merger. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
Bert Latamore
Dave Donatelli said the business of provisioning servers & storage will not be the growth strategy. That is in decline. @PGillin #theCUBE http://bit.ly/2qMgCN...
John Furrier

John Furrier

John Furrier

John Furrier

John Furrier
vmware mkt cap > HPE thoughts..never mind moving on :-)
John Furrier
33 yrs and 1 trillion dollars later this isn't about the money..what movtivates you
Bert Latamore
How is he going to retake the PC market from Lenovo?
Bert Latamore
How much of a threat is Lenovo in the server marketplace?
John Furrier
huh @MichaelDell We're in constant competition with startups. Public Cloud leaves you uncompetitive #dellemcelect
John Furrier
Cloud is not a place. It's a way 2 consume resources 4 the digital transformation. Need bth on-prem & public cloud resources.
John Furrier
Diane Bryant from Intel on stage with David Goulden Nice
John Furrier
RT @matteastwood: .@MichaelDell is right, businesses understand that digital transformation requires IT investment!
Dave Vellante
ask @michaeldell about the ecosystem - it seems that there are co's at world this year that previously wouldn't be (e.g. Nutanix) - philosophy on partners - how different than EMC's previously?
John Furrier
@dvellante There were not bashing of HPE this year. I think Michael has moved on and VMware is ecosystem cloud play
John Furrier
mulitcloud is real but not ready for prime time imho happy to debate anytime
Dave Vellante
would also like his take on china corp as an infrastructure provider
John Furrier
It's clear story imho; Dell will win/consolidate existing IT... And enable digital transformation with Pivotal, SDDC, CI/HCI; that's the story here
yaron haviv
can they deliver integrated services for on-prem? , reasons ppl go to cloud
