vSAN Tip of the Day: Dump the Dedicated Storage Array Still clinging to your SAN? It’s time to rethink the economics. By moving to a hyperconverged model like vSAN—or better yet, a fully integrated, ultraconverged architecture—you can eliminate the complexity and cost of: • Dedicated storage arrays • Proprietary controller hardware • Specialized storage networks • Separate support contracts • Costly refresh cycles The ROI is clear: Instead of paying a premium for all-flash arrays with SSDs marked as "SAN-optimized," you can use server-grade SSDs in standard servers and avoid the 10X markup added by AFA vendors. This method also reduces the number of components to manage and maintain, resulting in considerable cost savings. Organizations making the switch are saving tens of thousands of dollars, all while improving performance and simplifying operations. https://lnkd.in/gvehn6T7 If you’re facing a storage refresh or VMware exit, this is your opportunity to consolidate and cut costs at the same time.

"Autonomous SOC" -- that's a loaded phrase. But we mean it. D3 Security Morpheus runs end-to-end triage, using autonomous investigations that seek out all potential attack paths. Meaning, Morpheus doesn't just investigate alerts, it investigates your environment. It doesn't hand off the hard L2 work. It updates its own integrations & keeps investigations moving. It builds playbooks as byproducts of the attack path investigation. The engineering burden vs. SOAR or AI SOC bots is hugely reduced. Morpheus hands investigation results & detailed IR recommendations & approval-based orchestration workflows to IR/MDR/L3, keeping the human in charge of critical IR actions (and providing all the key data & transparency for QA). So, autonomous SOC...is it real? The people who have seen Morpheus, tend to be believers. RSAC Conference is your chance to decide for yourself at Booth S-3121.

Media Mix Modeling: From academic exercise to CMO priority. Media mix optimization has been around since the 1990s, originally based on syndicated survey data and mainframe computers. While Multi-Touch Attribution (MTA) has since helped us move past "last touch" to quantify the contribution of each media vehicle, a major hurdle remains: The Implementation Gap. Throughout my career, I’ve seen data science teams build brilliant models that are not implemented across the marketing org. Marketing groups are often too tactically focused on one-off programs to execute systematically integrated campaigns, leaving optimization on the shelf. However, data-driven B2B CMOs like Todd Forsythe and Jonathan Martin have pushed for more—leading to the type of analysis featured in my latest article. These models are essential tools to calibrate budgets against pipeline and revenue. In fact, building a media mix model is the first thing I do when launching a new data science practice. To solve the execution gap, my approach uses Association Analysis. I’ve been fortunate to refine this thinking through key collaborations: Foundations: Learned the core principles from Ling (Xiaoling) Huang with assistance from Yexiazi (Summer) S.. Scaling: Developed variations for business units, geos, and segments with Fuqiang Shi, Jyothsna Karne and Robert C.. If you don't know your optimal mix, you’re just guessing. https://lnkd.in/gMWnPtnc #DataScience #B2BMarketing #MediaMix #MarketingAnalytics

I am incredibly proud to share this news today. Fusion Worldwide has deployed Palantir's software across our global network. And I want to be direct about why we did it. We did it for our customers. If you are in #electronics components procurement right now — whether you are building for hyperscalers, industrial automation, enterprise infrastructure, or anywhere in between — you already know how hard this market is. Across every #commodity, every category, every region, lead times are stretching, pricing is moving fast, and supply is constrained. The window to act keeps getting shorter. You are managing a market that does not give you warning. And your job depends on seeing it coming anyway. That is exactly the problem Fusion set out to solve. By connecting supply, demand, and pricing signals across our entire global network through Palantir Technologies, we can surface constraints earlier, identify sourcing options before supply disappears, and help our customers make better decisions before the shortage reaches their BOM. For our industry, that is nothing short of transformational. For our marketing team, this unlocks something we have been waiting to do. Deeper intelligence means more relevant content, more precise market signals, and more personalized insights for the buyers we serve. Finally, true #H2H marketing. It makes us better at the job we love. And honestly, it has my whole team energized in a way that is hard to put into words. Marketers talk about putting customers first. Most companies say it. Fusion backs it up. I have seen it firsthand. This investment is proof of that and it is one of the reasons I show up every day ready to run. A personal thank you to Luke LeSaffre and Dmitry Orlovsky for their vision and leadership in making this happen. This is what it looks like when the people at the top of an organization are genuinely committed to building something better for the customers they serve. Excellence first. Excellence always. #OutinFront. Powered by #FusionWorldwide and #Palantir.
