Happy New Year! Right before we left for break Dell held Dell World here in Austin. Thousands of our customers make the trek here for three days of BBQ, bands and technology. We also had a great line up of speakers from Bill Clinton to the Freakonomics guys.
I was on the floor showing our brand new XPS 13 developer edition and met with customers. At one point I broke away and did an interview with Dave Vellante on the Cube along with Michael Cote. Check it out:
Some of the topics we tackled
- How project Sputnik went from project to product
- DevOps
- OpenStack
- VMware’s spin out of Pivotal labs
- Hadoop and Big Data and Dell’s second innovation project, RIPtide

Pau for now…
