Is there a storm brewing around HP’s XSP/cloud business?
The news here in Silicon Valley this morning is that HP is planning to overhaul its Enterprise Services Division by laying off 9000 employees and developing a business in automated XSP/cloud data center services. When HP announced its almost $14Billion EDS acquisition back in 2008, Nicholas Carr and others wrote about how HP needed an IT outsourcing services business to keep up with IBM . Others, such as Om Malik, suggested the move was designed to bring HP into the XSP/cloud computing age . Both camps were probably correct.
