The Rise of Semi-Custom Silicon
Rich Stroffolino discusses why we’re seeing a rise in semi-custom silicon approaches. General-purpose computing has been the rule for decades, but the slowing performance and efficiency gains on x86 have pushed chip makers to finding different paths to optimizing performance.

Architecture, Governance and Multi-cloud: Takeaways from TFDx at VMworld
I recently had the pleasure of participating in the Cloud Roundtable discussion hosted during Tech Field Day Extra at VMworld 2019. This discussion included several of my fellow Tech Field Day delegates along with notable representatives from Dell Technologies, VMware, and Intel. What was the purpose of our discussion?

While we may not have achieved this goal in the course of one hour, our conversation touched on many important points that are worth consideration.
VMworld Cloud Roundtable Discussion

In other words: many different disconnected islands, each with incomplete, badly implemented, unaudited security and compliance standards.
