Dell steps up storage

The Dell PowerVault MD3460.

Data storage space within the business sphere often comes at a premium. It’s common for companies to store terabytes of corporate data on their servers, but in environments that rely on high-performance computing (HPC), that space gets filled up fast.

Apple gets healthy

They say that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However, Apple is looking to attract the attention of healthcare professionals by entering the world of healthcare.

Designed exclusively for the creation of personal health management apps, Apple’s new CareKit platform will serve as a key catalyst in the development of apps that allow users to transmit information about various medical conditions to their doctors. 

Apps created with this platform will not only be a boon for everyday users, but will help doctors to remotely track patients suffering from certain medical conditions.

While the idea sounds promising, getting doctors on board is vital to the success of CareKit. There are still some doctors in the U.S. who have yet to adopt electronic health records in their offices.

Pumping up performance

In the late 1970s, pop music sensation Elvis Costello told us to “Pump It Up” in a song that would become a worldwide smash hit. In the late 1980s, M|A|R|R|S told us to “Pump Up the Volume” in an equally popular single. In 2016, we are being told to pump things up once again, but this time by a major player in the tech space.

Virtual reality

The past few years have seen computers undergo a significant evolution. What were once devices for business and personal use are now akin to digital Swiss Army knives. Recently, a new partnership between two major names was formed with the intention of transforming computers into digital content development powerhouses. 

A Tesla for all

The Tesla is a mechanical marvel, but owning one might require people to be in a higher tax bracket. Often boasting six-figure price tags, the vehicles are usually seen driven by the rich and famous.

However, that is about to change. Tesla chairman and CEO Elon Musk recently announced the launch of the new Tesla Model 3. Scheduled for a 2017 release, the Model 3 will sell for $35,000, making the innovative electric vehicles available to all.

Windows of opportunity

A window of opportunity can mean many things to many people. For some, it represents a chance to instantly make a positive change or impact. For Microsoft, it represents a chance to build upon the success of one of their workhorse offerings.

Padding their lead

Hot on the heels of the announcement of the 4-inch iPhone SE, Apple is also padding their lead in the tablet market by shrinking it down to size.

SEeing things

The development of mobile technologies is all about thinking big. These big ideas can potentially have a big impact on the masses. But a new product from Apple has the company thinking small. 

Turning the Page

Of all the devices in a traditional office setting, the printer is perhaps the most temperamental. On some days, it works without fail, printing documents quickly and easily. But then there are the days when the printer is a major thorn in the collective side of the employees, with paper jams, ink spills, and a litany of errors. Not only do these problems slow down the workflow, they also have a negative impact on the environment.
