Podcast
When Data Met Processing (33:48 minutes)
There's a fundamental change going on in how we approach the data that's
coming from IT systems in order to get a better monitoring and analysis
capability. "The data has to be analyzed in real-time," said AccelOps'
Mahesh Kumar. "By 'real-time,' I mean in streaming mode before the data
hits the disk."

Today's Story Highlights

Setting Up a Virtual Phone System
Twilio's cloud-based communications platform allows anyone with
rudimentary Web-development knowledge to build a voice and SMS text
application. An API, client, and various XML and other helper code is
available that lets you build in PHP, C# and more. Applications can
include transcription, conferencing, voice calls confirming orders,
appointment reminders, customer support and so on.

WebOS Swings Along the Open Road
When HP announced late last year that it would open source webOS, it was
hard not to be skeptical. After all, it would be all too easy for a
company to whitewash its own abandonment of a project by grandly
"donating it to the community." However, that pessimistic view is
beginning to fade, thanks to HP's publication last month of an official
road map for its webOS plans.

Apple's Enterprise Coup d'Etat
As a long-time Mac and iPhone user, I always enjoy seeing new people I
work with embrace the Apple way. At the same time, while out and about
at work conferences and trips, I consistently see more and more iPads
and iPhones. I'm sure some of this is my ability to recognize an Apple
product while my ability to spot two different Android-based phones is a
little less refined.

Samsung Galaxy Tab Design-Around Passes Muster With German Court
Apple has suffered a setback in its multicountry, extremely complex, and
seemingly everlasting patent fight with Samsung. In the latest episode,
its request to ban Samsung from selling two devices in Germany -- its
Galaxy Tab 10.1N tablet and its Galaxy Nexus smartphone -- was rejected
by the Munich Regional Court.

Super Bowl Advertisers Pile On With Multimedia Blitz
Superbowl Sunday, the biggest, flashiest U.S. sports event of the year,
is also the country's biggest advertising event of the year, carrying
some of the cleverest ads on TV. This year, Superbowl Sunday may also
mark a watershed in advertising, with advertisers reaching out beyond TV
to go into digital media in a big way.
