To understand the role of marketplace solutions, I spoke to Mona Chadha, Director of Worldwide ISVs and Partners at Amazon Web Services (AWS). AWS Marketplace is 10 years old and has evolved considerably, but its mission has remained the same: to make it as easy as possible for customers to be in the cloud.

We were joined by Audrey Benjamin, Director of Business Development, Digital Velocity at CDW, and Maureen Little, Vice President of Global Strategic Alliances at Okta. CDW is a US provider of technology products and services and Okta is an identity and access management software company. Both are AWS Marketplace partners.

Our discussion unpacked how marketplaces have simplified procurement and billing for partners, unlocking digital transformation for customers.

The episode explores:

How marketplaces help customers' journey to the cloud and democratize cloud adoption.
The effects of democratization of procurement on costs and engagement.
Growth opportunities for marketplace partners and independent software vendors.
The future of marketplaces, including integration of AI and cybersecurity services.

Industrial Edge Computing: Strategies That Scale 37:06

منذ عام واحد37:06

Edge computing is quickly becoming known for its ability to improve business operations by reducing latency, delivering high performance and providing real-time insights. But despite its promise, many businesses — especially in the industrial space — struggle to successfully adopt edge computing. One challenge is that industrial edge computing can be complex to scale. Although it's relatively easy to get started with a few edge devices, managing a large-scale edge computing infrastructure can be daunting. Additionally, the lack of a single edge computing standard can make it difficult to integrate edge devices and applications from different suppliers. To overcome these challenges, businesses need to take a strategic approach to edge computing adoption. This includes carefully planning their edge computing architecture, selecting the right edge devices and applications and implementing a robust management and orchestration framework. I recently talked to Christina Cardoza at insight.tech, alongside Dan Rodriguez, Vice President and General Manager of the Network and Edge Solutions Group at Intel, about the edge computing landscape. We discussed the state of edge computing across different environments, how businesses can successfully approach edge computing, key challenges and how to solve them, and what the future holds for edge computing in this space. This episode touches on topics including: Different edge opportunities for businesses Why adoption is more challenging for manufacturers How to successfully approach edge computing Lessons learned from industry examples The edge computing ecosystem and partnerships Future-proofing investments and efforts.

Broadcom's Hock Tan on Partners, Scale and Choice for VMware 31:53

منذ عامين31:53

31:53

Under the spotlight of regulatory scrutiny, Broadcom CEO and president Hock Tan has been working to bring clarity to how VMware will thrive in the Broadcom family. What will undoubtedly be a relief to prospective customers, partners and the wider market is that it won't come at the expense of stifling competition and choice. However, faced with apprehension from various trade, competition and antitrust bodies, Mr Tan and his team have had some convincing to do. Shortly after Broadcom announced its intentions to acquire VMware on 26 May 2022, CCS Insight commented on the announcement. We viewed the decision as a smart move to shepherd a more diversified hardware and software company with a rounded infrastructure and cloud management story. And, although VMware is certainly a prized asset to acquire, we expected challenges in bringing together silicon, software and services. In this episode of the CCS Insight podcast, Bola Rotibi, chief of enterprise research, provides a deep dive into the foundations for the acquisition of VMware, with Mr Tan setting out his vision for the deal. Broadcom's investment goals promise to extend the range of VMware partners, offering more choice and expanding VMware's operations and market foothold. Its aim of rebranding and repositioning the Broadcom Software group under the VMware brand is recognition of the latter's strength in the technology and supply chain ecosystem. Customers and partners will be reassured by these aims — and Broadcom will be hoping that regulatory bodies feel the same. The companion report outlining the key points of the discussion is now available here . Note: Hock Tan's comments on investments and plans for VMware are to be understood as referring to future circumstances in which Broadcom has closed its proposed acquisition of VMware.…

Containers can be a vital tool in the development of operations teams, allowing developers to build up skills in a technology that isn't specific to a particular type or workload, and to become more responsible for the life cycle of their applications. These portable containers can help organizations as they transition to the cloud by making workloads accessible across different technologies. However, the solution is still evolving, and some question if portable containers are destroying standards. For this episode of the CCS Insight podcast, our chief of enterprise research, Bola Rotibi, was joined by IBM's Emily Jiang, Liberty Cloud Native Architect and Advocate, and Graham Charters, WebSphere and Liberty product manager. We also spoke to Clive Howard, chief technology officer at Huozhi, a provider of a humanitarian fintech platform. Clive is also an associate analyst at CCS Insight. Our discussion unpacked the importance of containers in modern app development and how challenges are being addressed to help organizations make the move into the cloud. We also highlighted the role of APIs, and how they can serve to bring in other solutions and use other environments when containers aren't an applicable solution. The podcast offers guidance on the needs of modern application development, discussing: - How the industry is addressing API standards to increase developers' efficiency and allow them to reuse their skills. - What value these standards present to businesses, and how technical leads can present this to their business counterparts thinking about investing in containers and APIs. - How developers can use open standards to apply existing skills to different implementations, achieving standardization, consistency and portability across the board.

Since the 1990s, Java has become one of the most popular programming languages and an established technology for enterprise development. However, despite this history and the role it played in the beginning of the Internet, Java is not always seen as an instrumental technology in the cloud. For our latest podcast episode, Bola Rotibi, Chief of Enterprise Research at CCS Insight, talks to Ian Robinson, Distinguished Engineer and Chief Technology Officer of the IBM Application Platform. Ian has more than 25 years of experience working in distributed enterprise computing and is responsible for the technical strategy of IBM Application Platform technologies including WebSphere, Liberty and Java. Clive Howard, Chief Technology Officer at Huozhi, a provider of a humanitarian fintech platform, and associate analyst with CCS Insight, also joined the podcast discussion. Our discussion touched on the importance of Java in the early days of the Internet and how this may translate to its place in the cloud, looking at some of the initiatives that IBM has put together to make the coding language relevant for cloud operations. The podcast also offers listeners strategic guidance on the topic, such as: How to harness existing software development teams with specific skills and experience using Java in the transition to the cloud. Finding opportunities to innovate and overcome the challenges facing Java's future in the cloud, such as taking advantage of the cloud to optimize existing workloads in Java. The importance of these initiatives to leading technical roles from a business perspective, for example, reusing existing skills, teams and technologies to make the cloud more efficient and cheaper.…
