Today's Story Highlights

Labor Official Skewers Google Over Gender Pay Discrimination
The Department of Labor has found "systemic compensation disparities"
between Google's female employees and their male counterparts, regional
director Janette Wipper said at a hearing in San Francisco. The hearing
was in connection with the department's lawsuit over Google's failure to
hand over detailed compensation data about employees at its Mountain
View, California, headquarters.

Kingsoft Adds Cloud Support to WPS Office
Kingsoft had announced an expansion to its WPS Office suite to include
WPS Cloud. The upgrade enables users to work in a cross-platform office
suite environment with added storage, file roaming and sharing
capabilities. The cloud-enhanced version is available for PCs and mobile
as a fully functional free release and with premium subscriptions. It
runs on Linux, Windows, Mac and Android devices.

Oracle's Strategery
Watching Oracle's cloud strategy roll out has given me renewed respect
for its approach to the market. As a company that has been public for a
long stretch of time, Oracle has displayed all the warmth of an
anaconda. I have friends there, and they are not anacondas, but I hope
they know what I mean. Oracle knows its business and it's making money,
and it does it unabashedly.

Next Downturn Could Have Silver Lining for IoT
Although nearly every research study and industry survey suggests the
Internet of Things market is growing rapidly, plenty of companies are
holding back from pursuing IoT opportunities, for a variety of reasons.
Ironically, the possibility of a long-overdue financial downturn in the
next few years could force executives to put aside their apprehensions
and finally launch new IoT initiatives.
