James Sanders is a Research Analyst on the Cloud & Managed Services Transformation team at 451 Research, a part of S&P Global Market Intelligence. His research examines multi/hybrid cloud deployment strategies and the cloud resource management tools required to contain the increasing complexity of enterprise cloud deployments.
James also contributes to 451 Research’s Center of Excellence for Quantum Technology, covering qubit architectures for quantum computers, quantum algorithms/programs and developer tools, and control plane hardware. Quantum computing is an entrant in a broader category of cloud-enabled differentiated silicon, including alternative instruction set architectures (ISAs) for enterprise computing – e.g., POWER, Arm, RISC-V, and FPGA/ASIC solutions – and compute accelerators such as GPUs and in-memory computing. These technologies are increasingly vital for realizing increased performance in a post-Moore’s-Law landscape.
Prior to 451 Research, James was a technology journalist for CBS Interactive, covering cloud computing, open source software and hardware, programming trends, quantum computing, and mobile and satellite communication, as well as the impact of globalization on the tech industry, with a focus on Asia.
James is a graduate of Wichita State University.
Despite the burgeoning popularity of SSDs, traditional hard drives remain more affordable when viewed in a direct dollars-per-TB comparison. While traditional hard drive manufacturers are touting advances to meet the moment, as hard disk densities increase, per-disk performance is decreasing. Understanding how drives are changing is key to developing plans to maintain performance.
The Linux Foundation is assuming control of the FinOps Foundation, an initiative originating from cloud management platform Cloudability that aims to replicate the working relationship inherent to DevOps between finance stakeholders and operations.
CloudHealth is reaching out to clients to help them make the most of the optimization opportunities identified by its cloud management platform. Considering the challenges companies have faced during the COVID-19 pandemic, enterprises will likely want to obtain additional insight into cloud spending and operations.
Serverless computing has the potential to revolutionize the way applications in the cloud are developed, built and operated. The key to understanding the power of serverless is not technology " it's the economics of using what is essentially a fully managed service that can meet the exact need at every time, both at scale and down to zero. Serverless has become a real option for developers with both small and large requirements, and we firmly believe that the popularity of serverless will continue growing over the next several years, along with its impact on the industry.
The company, a spinoff of superconducting electronics company Hypres, eschews CMOS fabrication for rapid single flux quantum electronics. This could enable greater scaling potential, lower energy use and reduced atmospheric interference on quantum computers.
The company has announced the availability of its promised quantum computer with a quantum volume of 64, also naming publicly the signing of J.P. Morgan Chase as a reference customer. Honeywell has been researching quantum computing for a decade, with the initiative exiting stealth in December 2019.
