dawns, it’s a good time
to take stock of your IT
This special issue is designed
to give you insights into how four key tech
trends are evolving and how to best take
advantage of them.
We start with a look at how to analyze
the massive amounts of information being
generated about your
company and customers
from sources both public
and private — so-called
“big data” — and extract
real value from it. Next,
we’ll show you how
to apply virtualization
technology to storage
and networks, not just
servers. You’ll also learn
how to blend the best
of public and private
cloud options, and how to take your mobility and
social media strategies to the next level.
Here’s to a productive new year.
