what kind of job are you looking for? what's your major? I did my CSC Senior Design with EMC and liked working with their guys. My dad works for EMC too and seems to like it well enough.

jdlongNCSU does, but i don't think he posts anymore.

didn't see that coming.

at least finally they can stop with the annual rumors of Cisco acquiring EMC. that was never gonna happen.

VMW hit a 2 year low due to the news which shocks me a bit - i think this has an ability to unlock VMW value

legacy high margin hardware + legacy high margin virtualization ...what could possibly go wrong in an increasingly commoditized race to the bottom?

agree - storage is dropping like all. our prices drop each year when we need to expand. - i'd go ERP/SAP or something enterprise programming. Always in the demand.

One of the EMC companies in the triangle did "email marketing" also known as spam. I'd probably go for Netapp just on account of that.

We're moving all our clients and our platform from EMC Greenplum (expensive) to HDFS. Going to make a lot of things much easier.

while hdfs is easy enough to implement on whatever underlying platform you have, tuning it for performance across the array of customer environments you're sure to see is going to be a performance nightmare

Yup you're exactly right there. However we're certified with both Cloudera and HortonWorks (two big Hadoop distributors) and so there's a lot of communication back and forth on infrastructure standards and what not with us, them and our clients. It will certainly be a learning experience.

--although to add to that I'm currently working with a client on a project on our Greenplum version of our software and their Greenplum hardware (albeit massive) doesn't have reference Greenplum network architecture and the throughput we're getting across the segments is atrocious (segment timeouts, etc). Pain in the ass.
