Looks like Obama read my blog! The White House got the message. Politicians
now seem to understand that while they are trying to do things to save the
country, such as creating NSA programs, they cannot do that at the cost of
thriving and innovative businesses, especially cloud programs, which are in
their infancy. Recently, Obama met with technology leaders from Apple, AT&T;,
Google and others behind closed doors to discuss this issue.
While American initiatives, both federal and commercial, are trying to do
everything to fix this issue, I see vultures in the air. I saw articles
urging nationalism among Canadian companies, asking them to go Canadian. In
addition, they are also trying to use scare tactics to steer the business
towards them, which is not necessarily going to help gl... (more)

DXWorldEXPO Digital Transformation Stories By Liz McMillan  Poor data quality and analytics drive down business value. In fact, Gartner estimated that the average financial impact of poor data quality on organizations is $9.7 million per year. But bad data is much more than a cost center. By eroding trust in information, analytics and the business decisions based on these, it is a serious impediment to digital transformation.
Extract, transform and load (ETL) tools like AWC Glue bring much needed functionality. This tool enables new approaches to pull... Feb. 12, 2019 01:30 AM EST | By Elizabeth White  Using serverless computing has a number of obvious benefits over traditional application infrastructure - you pay only for what you use, scale up or down immediately to match supply with demand, and avoid operating any server infrastructure at all.
However, implementing maintainable and scalable applications using serverless computing services like AWS Lambda poses a number of challenges. The absence of long-lived, user-managed servers means that states cannot be maintained by the service. Lo... Feb. 12, 2019 12:00 AM EST | By Roger Strukhoff  As you know, enterprise IT conversation over the past year have often centered upon the open-source Kubernetes container orchestration system. In fact, Kubernetes has emerged as the key technology -- and even primary platform -- of cloud migrations for a wide variety of organizations.
Kubernetes is critical to forward-looking enterprises that continue to push their IT infrastructures toward maximum functionality, scalability, and flexibility. Feb. 12, 2019 12:00 AM EST | By Yeshim Deniz  The benefits of automated cloud deployments for speed, reliability and security are undeniable. The cornerstone of this approach, immutable deployment, promotes the idea of continuously rolling safe, stable images instead of trying to keep up with managing a fixed pool of virtual or physical machines. In this talk, we'll explore the immutable infrastructure pattern and how to use continuous deployment and continuous integration (CI/CD) process to build and manage server images for any platform....

Feb. 11, 2019 09:45 PM EST | By Liz McMillan  When Enterprises started adopting Hadoop-based Big Data environments over the last ten years, they were mainly on-premise deployments. Organizations would spin up and manage large Hadoop clusters, where they would funnel exabytes or petabytes of unstructured data.However, over the last few years the economics of maintaining this enormous infrastructure compared with the elastic scalability of viable cloud options has changed this equation.
The growth of cloud storage, cloud-managed big data e... Feb. 11, 2019 08:45 PM EST | By Elizabeth White  Serverless applications increase developer productivity and time to market, by freeing engineers from spending time on infrastructure provisioning, configuration and management. Serverless also simplifies Operations and reduces cost - as the Kubernetes container infrastructure required to run these applications is automatically spun up and scaled precisely with the workload, to optimally handle all runtime requests.
Recent advances in open source technology now allow organizations to run Serv... Feb. 11, 2019 07:45 PM EST | By Zakia Bouachraoui  At CloudEXPO Silicon Valley, June 24-26, 2019, Digital Transformation (DX) is a major focus with expanded DevOpsSUMMIT and FinTechEXPO programs within the DXWorldEXPO agenda. 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 throug... Feb. 11, 2019 07:00 PM EST | By Yeshim Deniz  With digital video content creation going viral and assuming the bulk of Internet traffic, how can the deluge of video content be analyzed effectively to derive insights and ROI? After all, video is not only huge in size, but it is complex given various visual, audio and temporal elements. Video summarization (a mechanism for generating a short video summary via key frame analysis or video skimming) has become a popular research topic industry-wide and across academia. Video thumbnail generation...
