Following their favorable fourth quarter reports last Thursday, DocuSign (DOCU - Free Report) and Marvell Technology (MRVL - Free Report) are two technology services stocks that are worthy of investors' consideration.

Marvell Technology Q4 Review
As a global leader in data infrastructure semiconductor solutions to a variety of end markets, Marvell Technology’s Q4 top and bottom-line figures were not overwhelming but the boost that artificial intelligence has given its data center revenue should catch investors attention going forward.
