David Scott, SVP & GM of HP StorageWorks - SNW 2011 - theCUBE
David Scott, SVP & GM of HP's StrorageWorks Division, sat down again inside the cube. David is a cube alumni and does a "fly by" at SNW in Silicon Valley to share the new HP vision in cloud. New CEO Leo Apotheker has made it clear he wants more performance out of services, and has moved the support unit under David Donatelli, while the company seeks a new executive to lead its overall services business. And Ann Livermore will be leaving as head of the enterprise division and moving to the board. Looking back, maybe she was a little too stolid for the CEO role, too tied to the old HP that existed before the Carly years, the spying scandal, and Jodie Fisher. She seems to symbolize the potential and limitations of HP services over the past 15 years, never able to move to the next level despite being admirably dependable.
