The purpose of HCI & what @wikibon calls True Private Cloud is to bring the cloud operating model to your data...and cut IT labor costs - see the ops staffing area http://www.via-cc.at...

We see $150B coming out of IT Labor costs over the next 10 years...
Rob Steele
do you think that $150B shifts to other IT related jobs ?
Chris Weis π΄ππ»π·
I don't think it'll come out, but I do think it'll be re-distributed. It's a competitive advantage for organizations that can get there first.
Dave Vellante
@RobSteele It definitely shifts to other activities - digital business initiatives, app dev and sometimes to the bottom line
Dave Vellante
@ccweis shift is more accurate chris I agree
Dave Vellante
The point is it shifts to vendor R&D in the form of capex or opex (I buy a better mouse trap) and moves into more strategic areas to fund innovation

I mean - what do you want your resume to say? "I'm a rock star at provisioning LUNs?" 0r "I led a team of Digital Transformers"
