Good for HP (with a but!)

Good for HP (with a but!)

By David Terrar on August 20, 2011

Last week the IT industry had a major bombshell.  HP announced it’s intention to get out of the PC business, drop it’s WebOS smartphone and TouchPad products and buy enterprise software company Autonomy.  If you don’t recognize Autonomy they are a major success story born out of research at Cambridge University.  Founded in 1996 they […]

HP Headlines, Pick A Favorite

HP Headlines, Pick A Favorite

By Dave Michels on August 19, 2011

HP used to be a great company. An amazing company, and the subject of numerous business books discussing innovation and leadership. Other than printers and calculators, I don’t have much HP around any more. Love my HP 12C calculator (RPN Ever4!). But the current HP is a joke and has been for quite some time. […]

Spotlight on HP Open Source

Spotlight on HP Open Source

By Adron Hall on August 1, 2011

While at OSCON 2011 I spoke to a Phil Robb, Bryan Gartner, and Terri Molini with HP. Phil is heading up the Open Source Program Office for HP, which we spoke about. Context and Clarity: I knew HP was involved in cloud computing to some degree, know they make tons of devices, hardware, printers, and know they […]

OSCON: Talking Shop With HP, Heroku, ForgeRock, Open Source For America, and More!

OSCON: Talking Shop With HP, Heroku, ForgeRock, Open Source For America, and More!

By Adron Hall on July 29, 2011

Today and yesterday I specifically aimed to meet and interview a number of sponsors and companies attending OSCON. My big quest I’d assigned myself was to determine who was doing what, where, when, and why in the Open Source Community. Of course I wasn’t going to get to every company, but I was going to […]

Blue Murder ?

Blue Murder ?

By Christian Reilly on April 6, 2011

I guess it used to be called “Stormchasing” – where groups of seemingly heroic, but clearly just plain stupid, raincoat-clad student types armed with an entry-level standard def video camera caught clips of each other laughing and shouting such ludicrous lines as “oh crap, Bob, it’s coming straight at us” as a 125mph wind got […]

The Appliance of Backup Science

The Appliance of Backup Science

By Paul Miller on February 16, 2011

With apologies to Zanussi for the corny title, I had an interesting conversation with Axcient CEO Justin Moore and HP’s VP for Channel Strategy & SMB Meaghan Kelly about the issues of helping small and medium businesses cope with backup, disaster recovery, and business continuity. Yesterday’s conversation was taking place in the context of today’s […]

HP Ditches Oracle Siebel in favor of Salesforce.com?

HP Ditches Oracle Siebel in favor of Salesforce.com?

By Zoli Erdos on November 23, 2010

Today’s big news is that HP is dropping Siebel CRM now owned by Oracle in favor of Salesforce.com. It’s a bit unfortunate that this is presented in the context of personal ego wars – unfortunate, but understandable,  considering that Oracle has been on a warpath with HP ever since former CEO Hurd got ousted, in […]

Containers, Computers and Catalan sunshine

By Paul Miller on October 20, 2010

Image by dannybirchall via Flickr I took a quick trip to the Catalan city of Barcelona earlier this month; surely the first time I’ve been to that city without seeing the sea. I was there as a guest of HP, to hear some of the latest happenings in their storage business. Over two days, we […]

CEO Musical Chairs

CEO Musical Chairs

By Zoli Erdos on September 30, 2010

<quick rant, not qualified analysis, don’t read much into it> So Leo Apotheker got HP.  Or did HP get Leo?  Either way, the former SAP CEO has just been named as the future savior of  HP.  Great pick.  HP’s troops have never been more demoralized, and Leo has a lot of experience with demoralized troops.  […]

HP sees opportunities in the Cloud

By Paul Miller on March 25, 2009

Hewlett-Packard‘s VP and CTO for Cloud Services Strategy, Russ Daniels, has an interesting job that encompasses far more than ‘simply’ worrying about how HP’s existing data centre business can adapt to the rise of utility computing. In a wide-ranging conversation that provides insight into the breadth of HPs interest and ambition, he recently spoke with […]

When Apology is Not Enough

By Zoli Erdos on December 1, 2008

Today is the Day of Apologies.  President Bush is sorry about the economic crisis, but his biggest regret is the flawed intelligence that led to the Iraq war: “The biggest regret of all the presidency has to have been the intelligence failure in Iraq. A lot of people put their reputations on the line and […]
