Bracing for the Next Big Cloud Revolution: Finding Value in "Up Stack" Cloud
The cloud revolution in enterprises has very clearly crossed the phase of
proof-of-concepts into a truly mainstream adoption. One of most popular
enterprise-wide initiatives currently going on are "cloud migration" programs
of some kind or another. Finding business value for these programs is not
hard to fathom - they include hyperelasticity in infrastructure consumption,
subscription based models, and agility derived from rapid speed of deployment
of applications. These factors will continue to drive cloud adoption into the
foreseeable future.
Beneath the surface, there is a far-reaching trend playing out with the
potential to create an impact far greater than cloud migration programs. For
want of better terminology, let's call this the "up stack" cloud revolution.
These are essentially "c... (more)
Beyond Software Development: Applying Agile Approaches to Traditional
Processes
While we understand Agile as a means to accelerate innovation, manage
uncertainty and cope with ambiguity, many are inclined to think that it
conflicts with the objectives of traditional engineering projects, such as
building a highway, skyscraper or power plant. These are plan-driven and
predictive projects that seek to avoid any uncertainty. This type of
thinking, however, is short-sighted.
Agile approaches are valuable in controlling uncertainty because they
constrain the complexity that stems from it. For example, iterative cycles
place a limit on how far planning can go and how much work can be taken on at
one time. What if those same constraints could help control a different kind
of complexity -- the type that undermines classic plan-driven projects?

Since releasing the University of San Francisco research paper on “How to
Determine the Economic Value of Your Data” (EvD), I have had numerous
conversations with senior executives about the business and technology
ramifications of EvD. Now with the release of Doug Laney’s “Infonomics”
book that builds upon Doug’s EvD work at Gartner, I expect these
conversations to intensify. In fact, I just traveled to Switzerland to
discuss the potential business and technology ramifications of EvD with the
management team of a leading European Telecommunications company.
From these conversations, I am starting to form some “theorems” to guide
organizations regarding how EvD could impact their business and technology
investments. A theorem is defined as “a general proposition not
self-evident but proved by a chain of reasoning; a truth established by means
of accepted truths.” ... (more)

Security in a Cloud-First World Is Cloudy
Enterprises are moving to the cloud faster than most of us in security
expected. CIOs are going from 0 to 100 in cloud adoption and leaving security
teams in the dust. Once cloud is part of an enterprise stack, it's unclear
who has responsibility for the protection of applications, services, and
data.
When cloud breaches occur, whether active compromise or a publicly accessible
database, the blame must fall on both service providers and users.

So data warehousing may not be cool anymore, you say? It’s yesterday’s technology (or 1990’s technology if you’re as old as me) that served yesterday’s business needs. And while it’s true that recent big data and data science technologies, architectures and methodologies seems to have rendered data warehousing to the back burner, it is entirely false that there is not a critical role for the data warehouse and Business Intelligence in digitally transformed organizations.
This month, an AI (artificial intelligence) system passed a medical exam in China for the first time. I wonder how its bedside manner will be? In addition, Saudi Arabia granted citizenship to a robot named Sophia. With all these rapid advancements, I think it is time we explore the spiritual life of robots.
Up till recently, programmers coded and configured algorithms, AI, automation and machine learning system and took personal responsibility for all the code. Today, however, AI has escaped the confines of human oversight and has been empowered and employed to self-program, self-optimize, ...
From government to retail to oil and gas, it seems like everyone is exploring how to use AI in their industry or business. It’s time for you to do the same.
There’s no question that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is on a lot of people’s minds these days, and is beginning to grow rapidly in adoption. Quoting Accenture, Forbes reports AI-driven productivity gains of perhaps 40% by 2035, and publications like the New York Times are noting the buzz, even as they ask, why now? Even if you don’t think you’ll be adopting AI for yourself just yet, you need to at least consider the broader impact the te...

The Federal Communications Commission announced that it will vote on December 14 to enact the exceptionally misleadingly titled “Restoring Internet Freedom” order. If passed, it will do the opposite of restoring anything resembling freedom — it will repeal the current net neutrality rules which were enacted to ensure that Americans would have equal access to the Internet.
If you’re reading this, chances are you’re already interested in the topic. Still, some quick background:
Renamed “Open Internet” a while back, net neutrality provided a regulatory framework that specifically prohibited:...
Digital technologies have altered how people and businesses interact. The potential for dislocation from ongoing digital transformation has created unprecedented levels of C-suite discussion. The decisive market leaders have heeded the warnings and taken bold actions.
That said, if you’re one of those Chief Technology Officers (CTO) that previously responded to this scenario by making small incremental adjustments to your IT agenda, then you’re potentially at risk. Any relief from those prior tweaks tend to be short lived. The same issues will likely resurface.
Over the last few years, the Internet of things (IoT) has become a trending phrase for consumers and a top priority for businesses embarking on their digital transformation. Even with the growth and interest in IoT however, the meaning can still confuse people.
So, what is IoT? IoT is a network of things connected to the internet and is uniquely identifiable through its embedded computing system. These “things” may include a variety of devices like home appliances, commercial vending machines, fitness trackers, industrial gateways, connected cars, and smart factories.
I love it when I get feedback from a blog that I’ve written. I appreciate the different perspectives and insights that others bring to a topic of interest. And no blog that I’ve written has drawn more comments than my blog, “Isaac Asimov: The 4th Law of Robotics.”
The section of the blog that fueled the most comments stem from a scene in the movie I, Robot where Detective Spooner (played by Will Smith) is explaining to Doctor Calvin (who is responsible for giving robots human-like behaviors) why he distrusts and hates robots. He is describing an incident where his police car crashed into anot...
The human work of solving problems, facing challenges and overcoming obstacles tends to share a common goal: creating stable, secure and predictable environments. The tendency for most humans is that once we solve a challenge, we want to be done with it. That propensity, however, does not fit with today’s reality of perpetual change.
In the digital business world, organizations have no choice but to operate in an unclear, uncertain and continuously shifting environment that requires a new mindset and approach to formulating business strategies. Digital winners recognize that change is pa...

Digital Transformation is amplifying mainframe as mission critical to business growth more than ever before. With 70% of the world's corporate data and over half of the world's enterprise applications running on mainframe computers, they are at the core of just about every transaction. A single transaction can, in fact, drive up to 100 system interactions. The continued increase in mainframe transaction volumes, growing on average 7-8% a year for 78% of customers, has even led to a new buzzword: The Connected Mainframe.
"Evatronix provides design services to companies that need to integrate the IoT technology in their products but they don't necessarily have the expertise, knowledge and design team to do so," explained Adam Morawiec, VP of Business Development at Evatronix, in this SYS-CON.tv interview at @ThingsExpo, held Oct 31 – Nov 2, 2017, at the Santa Clara Convention Center in Santa Clara, CA.
What's disruptive innovation, and why does it matter to leaders in the C-suite? It's how the savvy non-conformist will target market opportunities. How does this happen, when established companies seem to have the advantage? Creative software developers can quickly apply new technologies and digital business models to capture untapped demand.
For what feels like a lifetime, industry analysts and experts have predicted ‘this' will be the year the Internet of Things (IoT) finally takes off, both within industry and for consumers. But, as if by clockwork, each year of ‘guaranteed' IoT explosion has passed - the mass adoption and exploitation of the Internet of Things having failed to materialize.
The IoT vision is almost utopian in its promise: a connected intelligent home or office, offering a simpler more convenient future. Our houses will be populated by smart ‘things'; thermostats that know precisely how warm we like our rooms,...
