There may be no better technology business model Petri dish than Hewlett Packard Enterprise vs. #DellTechnologies in the years to come. Dell Technologies is betting on scale, girth and hopes that a massive company can be nimble. #HPE is shedding units as fast as it can so it can focus on the hybrid cloud, software defined infrastructure and move faster that larger rivals. Less than a year ago, Hewlett-Packard was a soup-to-nuts IT vendor. PCs, printers, servers, networking, storage and services were all under one roof. We know how that turned out. CEO Meg Whitman engineered a split in the name of focus. Hewlett-Packard became HPE and HP Inc., which has the PC and printing divisions. The sheer breadth of HPE's deconstruction was laid out in a slide. HPE has the spin-merge of its enterprise services division with CSC good for $8.5 billion and a similar transaction with #MicroFocus and the software business worth $8.8 billion.
