What is Data Science?

We’ve all heard it: according to Hal Varian, statistics is the next sexy job. Five years ago, in What is Web 2.0, Tim O’Reilly said that “data is the next Intel Inside.” But what does that statement mean? Why do we suddenly care about statistics and about data? This report examines the many sides of data science — the technologies, the companies and the unique skill sets.

Rethink Branch IT: Think Zero Branch IT

As the number of branch and remote locations increases, companies find themselves deploying more and more infrastructure, and spending increasing amounts of IT budget to deliver applications and data reliably and efficiently. Valuable company data stored in these locations is often left unprotected and frequently stored on servers jammed into closets, corners and hallways due to limited space. Without qualified IT staff on site to manage servers, storage and backup, provisioning new services, resolving application performance issues and recovering from outages can take days or even weeks, directly impacting business productivity and ultimately business results. Riverbed® offers a new approach – zero branch IT.
