HP Delivers ProLiant Server to Handle Big Data

HP unveiled Thursday a new server to help clients operationalize Big Data and drive new business opportunities.

With the advent of Big Data software and the promise that it brings, many organizations have tried to deploy these solutions on existing architectures not designed to handle the specific needs of these workloads.

As a result, the outcomes from these early deployments have been suboptimal from a performance and cost perspective, suggests HP.

Meanwhile, IBM recently unveiled a new digital marketing system and big data software. It is designed to help organizations gain actionable insights on the broadest range of data to transform the way they do business with customers, employees and partners.
