Thank you to Mike Vizard of CTOEdge for accepting my guest blog post Surfing the Big Data Retention Wave “Companies in many other industries face Big Data Retention imperatives, so when push comes to shove, you can analyze for show, but you need to comply for dough.” Please read the entire post at: http://www.ctoedge.com/content/surfing-big-data-retention-wave Tweet This [...] For all the advances the human race has delivered over countless centuries, one could argue that this is still a very complex world indeed. True, things can now be accomplished a lot faster, cheaper and more efficiently than ever before, but exactly how far have we come that it still takes an average person till [...] Claudia Chandra, Product Manager of the Data Archive suite at Informatica wrote a nice piece today titled A Secure, Cost Effective Home for Your Retired Application Data. (Disclosure: Informatica is a major partner and investor in my current company RainStor) Here are some exerpts of her post (in italics) and how the specialized repository that Informatica uses [...] Today EMC Corporation announced an expansion of its EMC Atmos cloud partner ecosystem to help customers manage and optimize external clouds as part of an overall private cloud strategy.

Our close partnership with EMC has ensured that our ISV partners, who [...] It’s been a while since I wrote a SaaSparilla report, but as luck would have it my recent presentation at the SDForum Cloud Computing SIG, had some SaaSy aspects to it which generated some buzz and interest, which I thought I’d repeat here. As per the title of the post, How can SaaS vendors increase revenues, [...] Last night I attended and also presented at another excellent SDForum Cloud Computing SIG (Special Interest Group). The topic for the evening’s discussion was Cloud Computing Performance. There were about 80+ attendees and the discussions, together with Q&A after each presentation were excellent. Many thanks, as usual, to Bernard Golden of Hyperstratus for organizing the event.

Also to that end, interest in Hadoop is gaining steam, [...] It is a wonderful day today, sunny, cloudy and definitely RainStormy, all at the same time. As you may have heard, RainStor (my current company) has received $7.5M series B funding from the wonderful teams at Storm Ventures, Informatica Corporation as well as existing investors Doughty Hanson and Dow Chemical I would like to add a note of [...] Ok, let’s take a break from MDM acquisition madness and change topics. Last year I reviewed the Info week startup 50 and noted that Approx. 40% of Information week’s Startup 50 are Cloud or Virtualization companies. It showed where the VC’s were putting their bets around what they perceived to be the next new wave. I [...] Previously I blogged about “Why Informatica–Siperian beats IBM–Initiate Systems, especially if you are an MDM buyer today” .
