>>Hi, my name is Maria Winans and I am the CMO for Kendrell. What inspires me is that I get the opportunity to launch a brand new company and into the marketplace. What's been challenging about Covid is not being able to work together with my team in the co creation of the collaborative way that we have been working over the past year and agile. And what excites me about, think is really being able to share our brand strategy at Kendrell with our customers and really showing them the opportunity together ahead of us.

(upbeat music) >> From theCube studios in Palo Alto in Boston, connecting with thought leaders all around the world, this is a Cube Conversation. >> Hi, Lisa Martin here with Caitlin Gordon, the VP of product marketing for Dell Technologies. Caitlin, welcome back to theCube, we are excited to see you again. >> I'm very excited to be here again. So data protection in the news, what's going on? Yeah, it's been a busy year, we had our, obviously our PowerProtect DD appliance launched last year. And then this year, we have announcements on the software side, we had announcements at vMworld, some more at Dell Technologies world. And now today we're announcing even more, which is the new PowerProtect DP series appliances, the new integrated appliances, it's really exciting. So we now have our PowerProtect DP, the next generation of Data Domain. And we have our PowerProtect DP appliances, integrated appliances. And that's all about combining both protection storage, protection software in a single converged all in one offering. It's really popular with our customers today, because of the simplicity, the ability to really modernize your data protection in a very simple way, get up, really up and running quickly. And in fact, it's really the fastest growing part of the backup appliance market. >> I have read that the integrated appliances, our market is growing twice as fast as the target market. So give us a picture of what customers can expect from the new DP series. >> Yeah, it's not that just similar to actually our DD series from last year, which is there's four models in the new DP series. And it's really all about getting better performance, better efficiency, we've got new hardware assisted compression, denser drives, and all that gives us the ability to get faster backups, faster recovery. In fact, you get 38% faster backups, 45% faster recovery, more logical capacity, 30% more logical capacity 65 to one deduplication, which is just incredible. And 60,000 IOPS for instant access, so really ups the game both in performance and in efficiency. >> Those are big numbers. You mentioned a DD launched last year, contrast it with what you're announcing now, what's the significance of the DP series. >> And this is exciting for us because it does a couple things, it expands our PowerProtect appliance family, with the new DP series of integrated appliances. But at the same time, we're also announcing other important PowerProtect enhancements. on the software side, PowerProtect Data Manager, which we've been enhancing and continuing to talk about all year, also has some new improvements, the ability to deploy it in Azure, in AWS Govcloud for in-cloud protection, the enhancements that we've done with VMware that we talked about not that long ago at VMworld, about being able to integrate with storage based policy management, really automating and simplifying VMware protection. And it's really all about Kubernetes, right? And the ability to support Kubernetes as well. So not only is this an exciting appliance launch for us, but it's also the marking of yet even more enhancements on the PowerProtect Data Manager side. And all that together means that with PowerProtect, you really have a one stop shop for all of your data protection needs, no matter where the data lives. No matter what SLA, whether it's a physical virtual appliance, whether it's target or integrated. You've all got them in the PowerProtect family now. >> Excellent, all right, last question for you Caitlin. We know Dell Technologies is focused on three big waves, its cloud, VMware, and cyber recovery. Anything else you want to add here? >> cyber resiliency, cyber recovery, ransomware has really risen to the top of the list unfortunately for many organizations, and PowerProtect cyber recovery is really an important enhancement that we also have with this announcement today. We've had this offering and market for a couple years, but the exciting new enhancement here. So it is the first cyber recovery solution endorsed by Sheltered Harbor. And if you're not familiar with PowerProtect cyber recovery, it provides an automated air gapped solution for data isolation and then cyber sense provides the analytics and the forensics for discovering, diagnosing and remediating those attacks. So it's really all about ransomware protecting from or covering from those attacks, which unfortunately have become all too common for our customers today. >> Excellent news Caitlin, thanks for sharing what's new. Congratulations to you and the Dell team. >> Thank you so much Lisa. >> Okay Gordon. I'm Lisa Martin. You're watching theCube (upbeat music)

>> Hi everybody, this is Dave Velante and on May 27th we're hosting a crowd chat brought to you by IBM. The focus of the crowd chat is on data ops. Go to crowdchat.net/dataops and you're going to learn about what real practitioners are doing not only to get started in data ops, but how they've succeeded. Jay Linbern is here. Jay, how you doing, thanks a lot. Tell us what you're seeing in terms of how clients are getting started. This is a complicated situation for a lot of people. Where should they start? >> Yeah, you're right, it really is a complicated situation. And if you look at the broad landscape of everything that encapsulates data ops it can be difficult to understand where to get started. In IBM we provide a data ops methodology which really helps clients break this down and understand each step of the process that they need to go through to provide clarity on where they can get initial value very, very quickly and where to get started. A lot of the clients I'm working with typically, that's been focusing on the data cataloging and the data governance base. Whereby if clients can get a view of all of their data and understanding where their data lives, who owns that data, what purpose it can be used for, then once they've got that picture and they've delivered value from that initial piece, it's then really easy to phase the pieces that come off of that. >> So check out the crowd chat on May 27th. crowdchat.com/dataops. It's not a bunch of marketing gobbledy gook. You're going to hear from real practitioners. I'll be there, hope you are too.

>>my name is it milling my knowledge and my current role is executive head off Information management. Standard bank, personal banking, personal and business banking is another. I've got started on our data >>journey. I think me and our data journey in the organization are kind of anonymous. So intertwine we we used to invest a lot in data monetization, um, opportunities. We buy technology. We would hire data scientists, but found that they would lend and really get frustrated that the quality of the data they spend 80% of the time preparing the data before they could even delivered. So >>at the time, my role was head of business architecture, and one of the capabilities that we identified as missing based on that paradigm that we saw was that we actually don't have a data management capability. So we have gone and invested at the very end of >>the data value chain, but nothing up front. So the foundational elements off data lifecycle management, polity, management data governance. Actually, we're not in place. It was kind of relegated and left I t to do. And I did the best that they could based on the information that they had, but it actually wasn't suited to business are so we >>realized they kept in that space and hit. I'll date the management journey begin. Well, what we did was first put together a business state which clearly articulated and reflected back to the organization and the export that time, how much money we had been pouring into data vectors on an annual basis and how much money we actually were making from data live monetization opportunity. We're making very little money in terms of leveraging data. Um, and and the use case was we were spending hundreds of millions in terms of data fixes in disparate places. Every little >>team had their own I p kind of doing what they could to kind of batch data together and fix certain floors in the data that they are that they found. But it was >>always a one and done and not an ongoing kind of capability. So that showed >>to us that you actually need a data quality capability. >>That was the first thing. The second thing is simply by showing them that on average, >>it took us about 6 to 8 months to make any huge strategic decision in the organization because we spent half I'm arguing but whose data was correct. >>And the third opportunity >>then came when we got a regulator refine based on the lack of quality in some of our client records and that then create presented to us the opportunity to say we've proven to you already the data quality was a problem. Now we've got a regulator refine that that also validates the same thing. So we really need to fix this on a sustainable basis. It's not a project, the new capability that you have different base, that you have to give going on for competitive advantage going forward. And that's how we really brought the buyer, and so we took advantage of a crime.
