The outlook for 2025: A sit down with @YahooFinance to look into the crystal ball for the year ahead. We talked: 1. AI Chips: Will NVIDIA continue its growth trajectory in 2025 and will challengers mount? Why hyperscalers are mounting a challenge but will also remain close to NVIDIA. 2. Agentic AI: We have pegged agentic AI to $4 trillion a year in labor efficiency based upon 20% of global tasks being accessible by agents yielding around a 40% efficiency gain for enterprises. 3. What type of technology environment will we have under Donald Trump. IPOs, M&A, and equities should rise, but the macroeconomy still has some question marks that will require some careful consideration by the incoming consideration and therefore investors Thanks @joshuahlipton and @SeanaNSmith for a great conversation on top trends to watch in 2025 as we wind down 2024. 👇 $NVDA $CRM $MSFT $GOOGL $AMZN
AI agents "are a massive opportunity right now for companies," says @danielnewmanUV. "It's a really high-efficiency driver for companies."

I'm just as shocked as you are, but I'm impressed with what I'm seeing from @SonicWall (and their recent @BanyanSecurity acquisition) here at #XFD12 They seem to have very viable ZTNA for both Internet and Private access control with both direct and cloud-route control.

"Zero touch is an abused term. There has to be *some* touch." Truer words from Chirag at @Sonicwall #XFD12

AI is a key business imperative, but letting it run along unregulated isn't a good idea either. #CommvaultSHIFT

The national aspect of AI safety can't be understated. Your controls may be invalidated by mandate before you know it. #CommvaultSHIFT

Criminal do have access to the same tools that we do. The upside? We know how they will use them. #CommvaultSHIFT

I'm curious about DORA. It keeps coming up ominously. #CommvaultSHIFT

50% of organizations with remote operations have experience a cyberattack. Increased footprint means more entry points. #CommvaultSHIFT

325 million users are authenticated through Active Directory. Do you even know where your backups are? #CommvaultSHIFT

Don't assume your SaaS vendor is backing up your data. Sure, it may not be on a dead drive but how often does it get accidentally deleted? #CommvaultSHIFT

Over 3 weeks to recover from an outage? Could you go 3 weeks without getting paid? #CommvaultSHIFT

40% storage growth? I wonder what AI has to do with that? #OnlyKindOfJoking #CommvaultSHIFT
