Opinion / Analysis
Why the big three can’t win the hybrid multicloud game
Data integration is not solved by AWS, Azure, or Google cloud platforms. Though each have been building partnerships with third party data management tools, it is not in their interest to work together, or to tempt regulatory reaction. So how do enterprises address this problem, and the dreaded repatriation costs? Kendall Clark (founder and CEO of Stardog) doesn’t paint a pretty picture, but delivers a dose of reality. Also see The cost of cloud, a trillion dollar paradox.

Switching software stacks is incredibly complex and costly, but keeping up with scaling needs can’t be avoided given never-ending data growth. Timothy Prickett Morgan provides a peek at how LinkedIn has been dealing with this balancing act. Not all of you have exabyte size data stores as they do, but nonetheless may find this a fascinating (I know, a strange word choice) read as I did. There is also a bonus link describing LinkedIn’s knowledge graph.
