NSA PRISM Scandal Is Hurting US Cloud Companies And Hastens The Return Of On-Premises Software

By R "Ray" Wang on August 12, 2013

Non-US Based Organizations And Even Some US Organizations Will Not Tolerate Snooping In A Post PRISM World Since the Edward Snowden PRISM revelations, Constellation has received a steady stream of inquiries on cloud strategy.   In fact, nervousness runs high among many non-US based companies using services from US based cloud companies across the cloud stack.  […]

The cool kids grow up: Box.com and the SharePoint Shift

The cool kids grow up: Box.com and the SharePoint Shift

By Josh Greenbaum on October 23, 2012

A Pictorial Tale of Two Conferences (and more)

A Pictorial Tale of Two Conferences (and more)

By Zoli Erdos on October 3, 2012

Recently I’ve attended two conferences two weeks apart in San Francisco, and the difference in style is shocking.  One did not even feel like a conference, rather a Festival – Woodstock, Mardi Gras, SXSW – your pick:-)  The other a decidedly more “closed” traditional corporate conference, so much so, that fellow commentators actually compared it […]

Boxing with the Cloud

Boxing with the Cloud

By Josh Greenbaum on November 15, 2011

Providing cloud-based storage seems so commodity-like, and so hard to defend as a unique differentiator, that it would seem that Box.net, despite the dynamic vigor of the company and its CEO, Aaron Levie, couldn’t really make a go of it in the market. After all, some very very big companies, like Microsoft, Google, and Amazon, […]

Rounded-out Box squares up to enterprise

By Phil Wainewright on January 25, 2011
