The ‘Known Unknown' of Big Data in IoT: How Big Will Your Data Grow and By
When?
IoT is at the core or many Digital Transformation initiatives with the goal
of re-inventing a company's business model. We all agree that collecting
relevant IoT data will result in massive amounts of data needing to be
stored. However, with the rapid development of IoT devices and ongoing
business model transformation, we are not able to predict the volume and
growth of IoT data. And with the lack of IoT history, traditional methods of
IT and infrastructure planning based on the past do not apply either.

Is SaaS Dead?
Both SaaS vendors and SaaS buyers are going "all-in" to hyperscale IaaS
platforms such as AWS, which is disrupting the SaaS value proposition. Why
should the enterprise SaaS consumer pay for the SaaS service if their data is
resident in adjacent AWS S3 buckets? If both SaaS sellers and buyers are
using the same cloud tools, automation and pay-per-transaction model offered
by IaaS platforms, then why not host the "shrink-wrapped" software in the
customers' cloud? Further, serverless computing, cloud marketplaces and
DevOps are changing the economics of hosting and delivering software.

Continuous Deployment for Docker: Lessons Learned from Rolling Out a Real
Live Service
Most companies are adopting or evaluating container technology - Docker in
particular - to speed up application deployment, drive down cost, ease
management and make application delivery more flexible overall.
As with most new architectures, this dream takes a lot of work to become a
reality. Even when you do get your application componentized enough and
packaged properly, there are still challenges for DevOps teams to making the
shift to continuous delivery and achieving that reduction in cost and
increase in speed.

It's Complicated - Choosing the Right AWS Services
Without a clear strategy for cost control and an architecture designed with
cloud services in mind, costs and operational performance can quickly get out
of control. To avoid multiple architectural redesigns requires extensive
thought and planning. Boundary (now part of BMC) launched a new public-facing
multi-tenant high resolution monitoring service on Amazon AWS two years ago,
facing challenges and learning best practices in the early days of the new
service.

@CloudExpo Stories By Pat Romanski  Organizations planning enterprise data center consolidation and modernization projects are faced with a challenging, costly reality. Requirements to deploy modern, cloud-native applications simultaneously with traditional client/server applications are almost impossible to achieve with hardware-centric enterprise infrastructure. Compute and network infrastructure are fast moving down a software-defined path, but storage has been a laggard. Until now.

Startups are a threat to incumbents like never before, and a major enabler for startups is that they are instantly “cloud ready.” If innovation moves at the pace of IT, then your company is in trouble.

You often hear the two titles of "DevOps" and "Immutable Infrastructure" used independently. In his session at DevOps Summit, John Willis, Technical Evangelist for Docker, covered the union between the two topics and why this is important. He provided an overview of Immutable Infrastructure then showed how an Immutable Continuous Delivery pipeline can be applied as a best practice for "DevOps." He ended the session with some interesting case study examples. 
"We are still a relatively small software house and we are focusing on certain industries like FinTech, med tech, energy and utilities. We help our customers with their digital transformation," noted Piotr Stawinski, Founder and CEO of EARP Integration, in this SYS-CON.tv interview at 20th Cloud Expo, held June 6-8 in New York City, NY.
