Re: NFV Major Role in Transformation
> "I have to say I'm a bit surprised that big data only gets 14%."

I was even more suprised to see that Devops was even lower, given that there's been so many announcements of carriers trying to change their culture with a devops emphasis.

Re: NFV Major Role in Transformation
There has been a lot of punditry lately on the notion of the passe-ness of "Big Data" as a buzzword, and how it is beginning to die out as companies begin to realize that they now have much of their data under control.

...except, of course, those implementing comprehensive IoT solutions.  Their data is HUGE.



...and, of course, the life sciences and financial services sectors.  Their data is gargantuan and often nearly unmanageable what with the oppressive regulatory regimes those areas face (particularly the latter).

Re: NFV Major Role in Transformation
@Joe yes, businesses are still using big data. But I think in terms of cachet, it's been supplanted by IoT. So that a busines that 2 years ago would have touted what it's doing as applying Big Data is more likely now to couch in terms of IoT, or, if you're Cisco, IoE.

Re: NFV Major Role in Transformation
@Ariella: Although every Cisco rep I speak to uses the term IoT instead of IoE... I wonder if everyone except a couple of marketers in that company have abandoned that term.

Re: NFV Major Role in Transformation
@Joe they'd be better off dropping it completely. It just creates confusion to use your own term for something that everyone else in the world calls something else.

Re: NFV Major Role in Transformation
@Ariella: Cisco has been using the term for several years, going back to the halcyon days of IoT buzz.  I think that the company hoped that it would catch on in lieu of IoT -- and, therefore, that Cisco would be forever synonymous with the technology.

It was a good try.

Re: NFV Major Role in Transformation
@Joe the same may be said of Betamax. Let's hope that Cisco catches on more quickly than Sony. A couple of months ago, CNN Money ran this article: Forty years after it was first introduced, and roughly 30 after it became irrelevant, Sony is finally putting Betamax out of its misery.

RE: Sony is finally putting Betamax out of its misery.

There's nothing wrong with old technology that still has a useful life! Tape backups might be more reliable than other kinds of storage, actually, because deterioration can be mitigated with tapes under the right conditions.
