The last decade saw an explosion of web applications and mobile devices resulting in overwhelming volumes of data. Traditional database designs from 30 years ago have not kept pace and cannot scale to handle these large data sets and concurrent workloads. This has tempted some developers to throw away the relational database and build on one of the NoSQL data stores that seem easier to code with and promise to scale. But for most business applications the data is relational! Transactions and con...

In my experience there are two types of enterprise IT departments -...
It is a topic of fascination for me that the high-tech world just plain will not stand still. The changes in automotive technology over the last century, for example, do not match the changes in high tech over the last decade. In addition to the expected on-upsmanship that market leaders tend to spu...

A hive mind is one that has a collective memory, sharing information from the past and pre...
BYOD or Bring Your Own Device has moved from trend to an permanent fixture in today’s corporate IT infrastructure. It is not strictly an IT issue however.
