Nutanix releases its debut quarterly financial report as a publicly traded company (no profit, but lots of growth), and Google sets up public Network Time Protocol (NTP) servers.

Amazon releases a slew of announcements at ReInvent, and takes networking to task for its cost and lack of reliability. Slack and IBM team up to boost Slackbots with Watson, and Comcast joins the open-source ONOS and CORD projects.
