I spend a lot of time helping organizations to “think like a data
scientist.” My book “Big Data MBA: Driving Business Strategies with Data
Science” has several chapters devoted to helping business leaders to
embrace the power of data scientist thinking. My Big Data MBA class at the
University of San Francisco School of Management focuses on teaching
tomorrow’s business executives the power of analytics and data science to
optimize key business processes, uncover new monetization opportunities and
create a more compelling, engaging customer and channel engagement.
However in working with our data science teams, I have come to realize that
we also need to address the other side of the data science equation; that we
need to teach the data scientists in order for them to think like business
executives. If the data science team cannot present the analytic results in a

In his keynote at 19th Cloud Expo, Sheng Liang, co-founder and CEO of
Rancher Labs, discussed the technological advances and new business
opportunities created by the rapid adoption of containers. With the success

Given my (well-known and enduring) interest in all aspects of services, I
have followed Martin Fowler's writing on microservices. But I will admit I
always found the original paper more confusing than insightful. And in my
client work I have resisted the temptation to use a microservices pattern,
for precisely the reason that it would more than likely confuse. So I was
interested to see the book Building Microservices by Sam Newman published
last month, particularly as Newman is part of the Thoughtworks stable, which
presumably means it is authoritative.
Right off the bat, Newman advises that we should "think of microservices as a
specific approach for SOA in the same way that XP or Scrum are specific
approaches for Agile Software development". These analogies are very
interesting because my expectation was that microservices is a pattern. So I
might infer that micr... (more)

At its core DevOps is all about collaboration. The lines of communication
must be opened and it takes some effort to ensure that they stay that way.
It's easy to pay lip service to trends and talk about implementing new
methodologies, but without action, real benefits cannot be realized. Success
requires planning, advocates empowered to effect change, and, of course, the
right tooling.
To bring about a cultural shift it's important to share challenges. In simple
terms, ensuring that everyone knows what everyone else is doing can create a
real team spirit and social cohesion that will drive DevOps forward. Here are
six tips that can be implemented to help you get there.
1. Stand-ups

by addressing three simple questions:

CloudEXPO Stories By Zakia Bouachraoui  Digital Transformation (DX) is a major focus with the introduction of DXWorldEXPO within the program. Successful transformation requires a laser focus on being data-driven and on using all the tools available that enable transformation if they plan to survive over the long term.
A total of 88% of Fortune 500 companies from a generation ago are now out of business. Only 12% still survive. Similar percentages are found throughout enterprises of all sizes.

Oct. 9, 2018 11:45 AM EDT | By Zakia Bouachraoui  When building large, cloud-based applications that operate at a high scale, it's important to maintain a high availability and resilience to failures. In order to do that, you must be tolerant of failures, even in light of failures in other areas of your application. "Fly two mistakes high" is an old adage in the radio control airplane hobby. It means, fly high enough so that if you make a mistake, you can continue flying with room to still make mistakes.
In his session at 18th Cloud Expo, Lee Atchison, Principal Cloud Architect and Advocate at New Relic, discussed how this same philosophy can be applied to highly scaled applications, and can dramatically increase your resilience to failure.
