#rumor of the day#2: @cisco to divest itself of #UCS

Its a money loser alright.  While they've gained some marketshare...it cost a lot of r&d and sales dollars...and...they lost a ton of business to HP and others while they were distracted.

rumor of the day #1: @cisco to get rid of @linksys consumer products

Is #sdn slipping away from @cisco ? @vmware buys @nicira

http://online.wsj.com/article/BT-CO-20120723-713968.html

“VMware said it will acquire Nicira for $1.05 billion in cash and about $210 million of assumed unvested equity awards. The company said the acquisition, which is expected to close in the second half of the year, will position VMware to be the industry leader in software-defined networking.”

@cisco ditches #waas and apparently gets out of wan optimization

public network management?

Is there going to be a trend in allowing anyone to see data about your network?  Folks like ESNet are actually allowing guests to view most of the data about their network

Interesting internet data out of the @stanford #pinger project

You can see their whole project here:

http://www-iepm.slac.stanford.edu/pinger/

but, I was impressed with seeing the data on the google explorer tool:

#HP #IMC Service Health Monitor

New #hp #imc module... Application Performance Module rocks!

HP just added a new purchasable module to IMC... Application Performance Module... it allows you to dive in an trend/track application specific parameters on devices.  Simple things like if port 8080 is open..or slightly more specific like Active Directory.  Here's a few screens shots

Does @cisco care about your #rights and #privacy?
