In this episode, Andre talks with Alessandro Curioni, VP of IBM Research for Europe and Africa. They discuss advances in computing over the last decade, the place of research in a large corporation, and much more.Connect with Alessandro: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alessandro-curioni-a527996/Art by Sam SmithIntro by Nathan BrophyMusic “Happiness” by Mixaund https://mixaund.bandcamp.com

Episode 32: The Hybrid Cloud Forecast - Outlook: Modern Computing

To celebrate the second anniversary of the podcast, Andre is re-joined by his first-ever guest, Kyle Brown, to check in on how Kyle’s thoughts and perceptions of the hybrid cloud have evolved and changed over the past two years, and across multiple jobs at IBM.Connect with Kyle: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kyle-brown-5a02581/Kyle’s blog: https://kylegenebrown.medium.com/Art by Sam SmithIntro by Nathan BrophyMusic “Happiness” by Mixaund https://mixaund.bandcamp.com

Episode 31: The Hybrid Cloud Forecast - Outlook: Anniversaries

In this episode, AB Vijay stops by to talk with Andre about IBM's strategic outlook for the hybrid cloud, talking about practical use cases, and the work that goes into moving clients onto the hybrid cloud.Check out AB's blog: <a href="https://abvijaykumar.medium.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://abvijaykumar.medium.com/</a>Connect with AB: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/abvijaykumar/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/abvijaykumar/</a>Art by Sam SmithIntro by Nathan BrophyMusic "Happiness" by Mixaund https://mixaund.bandcamp.com/

Episode 30: The Hybrid Cloud Forecast Series - Outlook: Cloud Transformation

In this episode of the Hybrid Cloud Forecast series, Andre talks with Rosalind Radcliffe, IBM Fellow, CIO DevSecOps CTO, where she is currently working on transforming z/OS into a modern platform with DevSecOps as a showcase for Hybrid Cloud, demonstrating to the world how Hybrid Cloud can work for enterprises. She emphasizes fit-for-purpose by running workloads where it makes the most sense in the Hybrid Cloud environment for business value. They discuss how siloed mainframe and distributed computing organizations today can use the same development processes, with many of the pipelines and toolchains being ported to z/OS. Andre and Rosalind discuss how DevOps has evolved into DevSecOps using automation to help simplify security challenges. She talks about the challenges of running the CIO organization for IBM, of being IBM’s client “zero”, with 6000 developers that build, run, and maintain all of the applications for running IBM. She is currently working on transforming z/OS to be infrastructure-as-code based to simplify management processes with application pipelines that are very highly efficient, with zero trust, no system programmers, all done through automation.

Episode 29: The Hybrid Cloud Forecast Series – Outlook: DevSecOps

In the second annual holiday episode of the Hybrid Cloud Forecast podcast, Andre takes a step back from the world of cloud computing and hears from his guest Faried Abrahams, IBM Fellow - IBM Consulting, about growing up in apartheid South Africa, how he came to work in IT, and the importance of his mentors along the way.

Episode 28: The Hybrid Cloud Forecast Series - Outlook: Opportunity

In this episode of the Hybrid Cloud Forecast series, Andre talks with Gosia Steinder, IBM Fellow, Hybrid Cloud Research, where she guides research teams in innovative research projects that advance the state of Cloud computing. Gosia began her career working on the first example of a system that offered compute capacity as-a-service to users, before virtualization and infrastructure-as-a-service existed. Then containers came along for managing applications, and she built the first of incarnation of IBM Container Service which ultimately moved to Kubernetes. Over the years, her role has naturally expanded across two areas: advancing the hybrid cloud platform, and ensuring it has the security and compliance capabilities that are required, especially in regulated industries. Together they discuss the challenges of securing multi-cloud solutions as the API services, semantics, and risks vary across Cloud providers. Andre asks her what it means to be a researcher and she describes how the role has changed over time. Gosia is currently working on a new technology from Red Hat, called “kcp”. It is a new spin on Kubernetes, which can be applied to a variety of other problems, not just container management. The kcp technology extracts the desired state management layer and applies it to different contexts by provisioning and managing the lifecycle of resources that have nothing to do with Kubernetes, such as VMs on another cloud, or network resources.
