On the meaning and implications of HP and Microsoft working together, Kepes discusses a shift in mindset for HP away from looking at hardware as a revenue stream, looking more towards services as their revenue stream. This extends to the organization as a whole, because as Miniman noted, there is a track record of services success in the history of HP, as in the EDS division.
HP cloud is reflected on in the discussion as a realistic reaction to some enterprise concerns. The need for some type of consistency between the many variations of public and private cloud environments is a serious challenge. The answer is a form of hybridized platform independence that will fill the gap between public and private environments, a transition that is not as simple as it sounds. Kepes notes that there are some legacy applications that will never move into the cloud. This includes mission-critical mainframe applications and the sort. There is too much inconvenience at this time to rise to that level of effort. At this time, the cloud is primarily an environment for ‘greenfield’ apps. This is a reality that forms that gap challenge.
Kepes talks about cloud education and his CloudU series. The curriculum was designed by Ben and is found on Rackspace’s site. It is vendor neutral and a fantastic learning source. Acknowledging the value of various vendor-specific education programs, Kepes is committed to education in the brave new frontier of cloud technology. He also mentions some of the ‘hot jobs’ of the future such as DevOps, Data Scientist, and business-focused IT jobs.
