 The Cube at EMC World 2014 is brought to you by EMC. Redefine VCE, innovating the world's first converged infrastructure solution for private cloud computing. Brocade, say goodbye to the status quo and hello to Brocade. Okay, welcome back everyone. We're here live in Las Vegas for EMC World. This is the Cube, our flagship program. We go out to the events, we extract the signal from the noise. I'm John Furrier, the founder of SiliconANG. I'm Joe Michaels, Dave Vellante, and we're here with Todd Peoletti, VP of product marketing at Pivotal. Welcome to the Cube. Thanks a lot guys. See you Todd. Yeah, so Pivotal obviously broke out from VMware, very successful company. Well Pivotal was very successful prior to being acquired, but then broken out with Cloud Foundry, separate from VMware, but in the Federation, Paul Morris gave the keynote here. Give us a quick update, you're in charge of product marketing, so you've got to go out and look at the marketplace and kind of create that linkage between product market fit, drive revenue, develop the market. Give us a quick update on what's going on with Pivotal. Yeah, absolutely. So as you mentioned, Pivotal was spun out of EMC and VMware just about a year ago. We celebrated our one-year anniversary here in April. And it's essentially a collection of a handful of technologies and businesses that were submitted by both companies. So data assets for in-memory database management, massive parallel query processing, Hadoop data assets in order to create a data foundation, middleware assets from VMware in large part, RabbitMQ, Redis and Store, QStore memory grid, and very much importantly our Cloud Foundry and now our commercial Cloud Foundry platform service. And the intent really is to help enterprises get to this third platform. So you guys had some news today. I see, we saw Pat Gelsinger on stage supporting the Cloud Foundry on vCloud hybrid services. Explain, what does that mean? What does that mean? Availability, what's that announcement all about? Yeah, so essentially, we announced Pivotal Cloud Foundry, which is the commercial instantiation of the open source project last November. And the first platform that it ran on was on-premise vSphere. And as you saw on Pat's keynote, it's still a good portion of spend and cloud is private cloud on-premise. And so that was an important place for us to start. Today was really the first commercial offering of a multiple hybrid cloud environment where you can take an application to put on a private cloud vSphere environment in your data center and deploy the same application and move it to a VCHES environment in the cloud. So, I have a follow-up on that. So, one of your big partners is IBM. We were at a couple IBM shows, Pulse and Impact, and they now have a big push on Bluemix. Bluemix runs on Cloud Foundry. Bluemix is a pass layer. Cloud Foundry is a pass layer. So, help us squint through that. What's going on there? Yeah, look, I mean, there'll be a fair amount of squinting as Pivotal begins to succeed here and really starts to become a platform in its own right. But underneath all of what we do is an open source oriented mantra where the more developer community we can get building on top of our technology or using the technology, the better that ecosystem is going to be, ultimately the more commercial success we're going to have. IBM was one of the first members of our open source Cloud Foundry foundation, which Paul also talked about. Part of the governance, right? Part of the governance. We essentially were the custodians. We handed that over to a federation. We announced eight new federation members just in the last week and a half. And it's the role of that foundation to oversee and contribute and commit and manage de facto standards out of that. And we're going to get more success out in the marketplace commercially. If there are lots of clouds that can run a Cloud Foundry and ultimately application developers can place their apps in any cloud. Okay, Todd, we're going to have to break right now. We've got a little scheduling thing. We're going to- We're going to get a quick question in. I got a quick question in. Talk about Hadoop distribution. Jeff Kelly would kill me if I don't ask. Do you have more than 100 Hadoop distros out there in the marketplace? We do. Our Hadoop offering has had tremendous success and it's only going to get more and more successful as we've packaged that offering to our Big Data Suite. Okay. We also announced early in April. Big Data Suite, talk quickly about what's in there. Yeah, so the premise there is we've taken all of our advanced technologies that were pulled together from VMware and EMC. Our memory data grid technology, our massive parallel querying technology, and our Hadoop distribution. And rolled them into a single offering so a customer can move across a life cycle of maturity or application use cases and mix and match licenses across those things. What's even more important, though, is the pricing model is on a power consumption per core. Per core, which everybody else is pricing per node per terabyte. Yeah, look, our customers are only going to be successful and the market is only going to be successful with Big Data if you're actually able to use it, reason over it, and store it forever. Right. All right. We got a break. We want to get Jeremy Burton on the queue because we've got a short window here. We want to bring you back, okay? So we're going to be right back with Jeremy Burton and I'll be right back at the short break.
