Can Dell transform its portfolio’s fat into gravy? | #DellEMCWorld
The lesson from IT history is that very big acquisitions don’t work; there is evidence to back this up, according to Stu Miniman (@stu), cohost of theCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team. Merged companies grapple with product glut, identity loss and market gulfs too wide for them to straddle. But there are exceptions. Sometimes having everything but the kitchen ...
VMware is the goose with the golden eggs — Now that Dell has it cooped, what’s next? | #DellEMCWorld

Hold on to your keyboards — another tech boom’s coming | #GSBfutureofinnovation
Who are the movers and shakers in Silicon Valley, and what are they excited about today?

Can’t we all just ditch ‘digital Darwinism’ and get along with ‘coopetition?’ | #GSBfutureofinnovation
Picture a venturesome startup 10 years ago disrupting a market and eventually dominating it.

Some business owners today surveying this savage ...
Thanks to warp speed innovation, school is never out for tech pros | #GSBfutureofinnovation

The number of roles that will need to be filled by highly trained individuals is a major concern on the horizon; another concern is the continuing education needed to keep old hands competitive with new grads. We spoke with a technology pioneer about how we might ...
Cloud is just someone else’s computer — do you know what your data’s doing there? | #CUBEconversations
Public cloud services like AWS have garnered a ton of fanfare from startups and established businesses.

Can this company bring data visualization up to date? | #DataFirst

Is this Women-in-Big-Data initiative the answer to the data scientist shortage? | #DataFirst
Companies often bemoan the lack of highly trained data scientists up for grabs on the job market. The field is young, and universities are just beginning to offer data-specific training. Perhaps part of the problem is the bleeding of one cohort of would-be data scientists: Women who find the field hard to advance in for ...
Can IBM’s ecosystem grab hold of the slippery data science market? | #DataFirst
One day there may be one go-to data platform or tool that companies universally trust to get insight, push a button and, presto, deliver value. Currently, the range of available tools that might work, work in some instances or for some companies matches the sprawl of the data science field itself. Can one company take ...
ETL reality check: If your data science model seems to good to be true, it probably is | #DataFirst
Technology companies are launching data science platforms of widely varying complexity. Some claim their tools are so simple they will make “citizen data scientists” out of folks with little or no experience. TheCUBE, from the SiliconANGLE Media team, recently spoke with an actual research scientist who offered a caveat for everyone working with data: Before you jump ...
