In the wake of Broadcoms acquisition of VMware, many CIOs have considered whether to drop VMware from their IT portfolios. But because the popular virtualization platform can be too expensive and pervasive to replace even if they may want to, they may find themselves with a mainframe-type of dilemma. The comparison of VMware to mainframes started as a bit of a joke for Gartner vice president analyst Michael Warrilow but the analogy holds up, to a point, he says.

It is really nice to be able to discuss and compare notes with your colleagues.
By Bogdan Nesvit Founding a startup is one of the toughest career paths you can take evidenced by the 90% that are unsuccessful, 21% of which fail within the first year. In an environment where the odds are stacked against you, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD, compounds the challenges founders face. Research shows that 80% of those with ADHD experience work-related struggles, while 69% of neurodivergent people suffer from impostor syndrome, which puts many off pursuing entrepr
Submit a proposal for a talk at our new virtual conference, Coding with AI: The End of Software Development as We Know It.Proposals must be submitted by March 5; the conference will take place April 24, 2025, from 11AM to 3PM EDT. When tools like GitHub Copilot first appeared, it was received wisdom that AI would make programming easier. It would be a boon to new programmers at the start of their careers, just learning a few new programming languages.

This blog post is co-written with Moran beladev, Manos Stergiadis, and Ilya Gusev from Booking.com. Large language models (LLMs) have revolutionized the field of natural language processing with their ability to understand and generate humanlike text. Trained on broad, generic datasets spanning a wide range of topics and domains, LLMs use their parametric knowledge to perform increasingly complex and versatile tasks across multiple business use cases.
By Yotam Kramer Despite the perception of many, as we enter 2025 AI is still in the very early stages of its adoption. In fact, while the technology has been in development for a number of decades, its application has only recently become a reality for the majority of enterprises. While large language models such as the offerings from OpenAI may have taken much of the oxygen out of the room, it represents just one example of where AI can add value.
First, we will see what Redis is and its usage, as well as why it is suitable for modern complex microservice applications. We will talk about how Redis supports storing multiple data formats for different purposes through its modules. Next, we will see how Redis, as an in-memory database, can persist data and recover from data loss. Well also talk about how Redis optimizes memory storage costs using Redis on Flash.
The market for AI PCs is gaining momentum.
