Sneak Peak: HP Labs technologies that will power a future of cloud and connectivity
Recently, Prith Banerjee, HP’s SVP of research and director of HP Labs, spoke with Arik Hesseldahl of All Things Digital about the research underway in HP Labs that will help drive this vision forward, including KVS (key-value stores) and the Cirious cloud software platform.
From the fundamental building blocks of future cloud systems to analytics to make sense of Big Data, they covered a lot of ground. Here are a few notable excerpts. Check out the full story here.
- On future services for health care, transportation and financial services: “We’re coming up with some very unique IP in these solution areas. And our delivery mechanism will be over the cloud.”
- On Key Value Store technology, a building block for cloud storage: “That’s a scalable, reliable, low-cost way of providing tremendous amounts of storage to our customers.”
- On research in information analytics: “About 80 to 90 percent of [data] is going to be unstructured. The key is tying it together with the structured data and do really deep analytics on that.”
- On bridging consumer and business worlds on one device: “The technology we’ve come up with is trusted virtualization. We provide a consumer view and an enterprise view. And these two worlds will not clash. We keep them completely secure, and running on the same device.”
