Forces That Will Reshape the IT Landscape in 2016
There may be no better way to capture the state of the technology
industry than to borrow Charles Dickens' famous opening from A Tale of
Two Cities : "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..." It
never has been a better time to launch offerings via the cloud, but the
availability of low-cost computing power and open source software have
created unprecedented competitive challenges.

Yahoo May Be on Road to Oblivion
Up for discussion at Yahoo's next board of directors meeting is the sale
of its Bing-powered search, longstanding mail service, aggregator-
propped news platform, and the rest of the company's Internet business,
according to reports. The possible spinoff of Yahoo's 15 percent stake
in Alibaba also may be on the table. Yahoo has struggled mightily over
the last decade.

Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2016 Focuses on Intelligence
Microsoft this week released Dynamics CRM 2016 in CRM Online and on-
premises versions. Built-in intelligence is a key feature of the
package, which is available in 130 markets and 144 languages. It
leverages the Cortana Analytics Suite's advanced analytics and machine
learning capabilities. Intelligence "is important because it's an idea
that's current," observed analyst Denis Pombriant.
