BFI: Brute Force and Ignorance

BFI is an acronym which gets thrown around a bit and could stand for many things; Brute Force and Ignorance is one…but I’ve come up with a hopefully a new one which goes along with it, Big F**king Infrastructure. And this is my problem with Cloud at present; there seems to be a trend around at the moment that the point of Cloud is to build Big F**king Infrastructure.

Bigger Blue?

IBM were always going to go acquisitive this year and it’s no surprise to me that the first target appears to be Sun. As other commentators have already pointed out, this is not a reaction to Cisco’s announcement on Monday but more a strike against HP. This is about being Number 1 again!
