Dell, buying into the notion that hardware is now a commodity and they have already optimized that business, believes they need to diversify. So they buy a large business/technology consulting firm. Do they now bring any more value to the Perot business?

Missing the boat - deduplication is only one piece of the puzzle

July 27, 2009

EMC outlines where Data Domain will fit | blogs.zdnet.com

The hype around Data Domain that brought it $2.1 Billion, over-emphasized the role of deduplication. The technology is nice, but it is neither unique nor complete.

Security Technology Vendors, Too Little Too Late?

March 30, 2009

Cyber crime profits running into trillions of dollars | www.itnews.com.au

Information security technology vendors have been trying to catch up with the hacker community with little success in the last couple years.  Most of their tools are out of date the day that they are released for sophisticated attacks.  The hacker community has become more organized and focused on their goal to quietly make money through the use of malicious software and social engineering without advertising their capabilities.  The vendor community needs to change the fundamental ways the design and produce technology or at a minimum reset expectations on the value proposition of their capabilities if they are to continue to drive value and not become commoditized in enterprise information technology environments.

Satyam Chief Quits, Fraud Scandal Slams Shares | www.eweek.com

The news coming out of Satyam is serious indeed and has broad implications.  However, the article gets a bit sensationalist by implying that accounting irregularities may be occuring at other companies in the industry.

While the RPO concept has taken a healthy shape in the Western countries, in India however, the RPO sector is currently at its infant stage.

August 7, 2008

HR outsourcing gaining steam | www.hindu.com

A recent study claimed that the global BPO industry will be worth $230 billion by 2012 and India stands to gain $50 billion of that global pie.  This boom may be in the wake of an U.S. economic downturn as employers who have historically shied away from offshoring may now become more receptive to the idea to cut costs. After the business process outsourcing and knowledge process outsourcing boom, the corporate sector in India is steadily gearing up for a new concept - RPO, which is recruitment process outsourcing. It aims at taking the burden out of the head-hunting. While the RPO concept has taken a healthy shape in the Western countries, in India however, there are only a few RPO firms currently catering to the needs of various domestic as well as multi-nationals in hiring employees for them.  The RPO sector in India is currently at its infant stage.

Desktop virtualization as no-brainer, nearly there

May 13, 2008

Desktop Virtualization Drives Security, Not Just Dollar Savings | www.informationweek.com

Desktop virtualization has always been an enticing proposition, but it was never able to overcome the practical limitations, and more importantly never gained acceptance from the user base.  However, the proliferation and acceptance of browser based applications, proliferation of high capacity networks; improved technology, concerns for security, and the need for cost efficiencies will ultimately lead to wide-spread acceptance and massive deployments.
