Cybersecurity in the Cloud: Safer Than You ThinkAppian
Listen to our podcast on cybersecurity in the cloud: https://ap.pn/2K0dQhS
The explosion of cloud computing has connected more people than anyone ever imagined. But the massive numbers of companies migrating to the cloud has also amplified the urgency of data security and regulatory compliance as well.
The skeptics get snagged on lingering assumptions that cloud technology is insecure. But it’s hard to be skeptical when the best cloud vendors may be more expert at cybersecurity than many inhouse IT administrators.
Perhaps the trust gap is perpetuated by the numerous data breach horror stories that litter the Web. But don’t let the cyber smash and grab headlines stop you from giving cloud the benefit of the doubt.
In our thought-provoking podcast, Malcolm Ross sat down with Appian Chief Information Security Officer, Omesh Agam to take a fresh look at how to keep your data, applications and infrastructure secure in the cloud. Listen now: https://ap.pn/2K0dQhS
Even as enterprise IT shops are deploying private clouds to increase agility and reduce costs, they are also increasing the number of workloads being run in public clouds in order to meet the dynamic needs of the business. This means that the role of “cloud broker” is now part of the CIO’s strategic posture as a partner with the business.

ClouNS - A Cloud-native Application Reference Model for Enterprise ArchitectsNane Kratzke
The capability to operate cloud-native applications can create enormous business growth and value. But enterprise architects should be aware that cloud-native applications are vulnerable to vendor lock-in. We investigated cloud-native application design principles, public cloud service providers, and industrial cloud standards. All results indicate that most cloud service categories seem to foster vendor lock-in situations which might be especially problematic for enterprise architectures. This might sound disillusioning at first. However, we present a reference model for cloud-native applications that relies only on a small subset of well standardized IaaS services. The reference model can be used for codifying cloud technologies. It can guide technology identification, classification, adoption, research and development processes for cloud-native application and for vendor lock-in aware enterprise architecture engineering methodologies.

The document discusses implementing a Cloud Enabled Data Center (CEDC) using infrastructure as a service (IaaS). Key points include:
1) A CEDC combines advantages of public and private clouds by providing standardized, automated IaaS resources on-premise for increased security, customization and quality of service control.
2) Common business drivers for a CEDC include managing costs, responding quickly to changing needs, and faster time to deploy new services.
3) Risks include lack of alignment between IT and business units on services, inadequate governance, and resistance to change.
4) Benefits are ability to quickly shift focus to core business needs and lower costs of deployment
This document discusses project management strategies for cloud computing projects. It begins by defining cloud computing and its various models like IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS. It then discusses common causes of failure for cloud projects, such as undefined success criteria, unquantified advantages, lack of accountability, and failure to manage applications and costs. The document recommends addressing these risks through effective scoping, change management, and an agile project methodology. Defining strategies, requirements, and risks upfront can help boost success rates for cloud computing projects.

Major systems integrators and boutique consultancies will focus on developing data governance frameworks in 2018-2019, while large enterprises struggle to implement effective enterprise-wide data governance. Data governance is crucial for master data management project success but currently many organizations only have basic, reactive governance capabilities. By 2020, major vendors hope to provide more proactive governance solutions integrated with data management technologies. Effective data governance requires balancing people, processes, and tools across the organization.

All you need to know to understand the "data governance" market -- which business uses cases and technology are key, and which solution providers (software & services) are essential
Learn how to leverage software on premise infrastructure and public cloud to automate common IT and business processes, create a better user experience and save money
This document discusses the transition from traditional on-premise software to the Software as a Service (SaaS) model. SaaS delivers software applications via the internet, allowing customers to access applications remotely "on demand" without installing them. Migrating to SaaS requires changes in an organization's business model, technology infrastructure, operations, sales and marketing strategies, and culture. Key issues to focus on include developing a SaaS-oriented strategy and business model, architecting for multi-tenancy, focusing on customer success, and managing the cultural shift to a service-based approach.
Cloud technology is no longer a new player in the market,
but it’s a mature and integral part of the IT landscape and a
key parameter in driving business growth. It is an
indispensable topic among CXOs. A research by Fraedon has
found that almost half of the banks find their legacy
systems to be the biggest hindrance in their growth.
5 Key Data Management Trends of 2022 as observed by a data practitioner. Covers trends on data architecture, data storage, data platforms, and data operations.
In 2016, cloud technologies went mainstream. But with maturity came the realization that moving to the cloud doesn’t happen overnight. CIOs are prioritizing hosted computing and cloud data storage. But they’re approaching the shift as a gradual, multi-year journey.
Many startups and small businesses will continue to go all-in on cloud. But enterprises will find success in a slow but steady move from on-prem. Hybrid ecosystems—of data, software, and infrastructure—will be the reality for most established organizations.
As this shift to cloud progresses where are things are headed? This paper highlights the top cloud trends for 2017.

DevOpsDays Atlanta 2025 - Building 10x Development Organizations.pptxJustin Reock
Building 10x Organizations with Modern Productivity Metrics
10x developers may be a myth, but 10x organizations are very real, as proven by the influential study performed in the 1980s, ‘The Coding War Games.’
Right now, here in early 2025, we seem to be experiencing YAPP (Yet Another Productivity Philosophy), and that philosophy is converging on developer experience. It seems that with every new method we invent for the delivery of products, whether physical or virtual, we reinvent productivity philosophies to go alongside them.
But which of these approaches actually work? DORA? SPACE? DevEx? What should we invest in and create urgency behind today, so that we don’t find ourselves having the same discussion again in a decade?

AI Changes Everything – Talk at Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2...Alan Dix
Talk at the final event of Data Fusion Dynamics: A Collaborative UK-Saudi Initiative in Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence funded by the British Council UK-Saudi Challenge Fund 2024, Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2025
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/CMet2025-AI-Changes-Everything/
Is AI just another technology, or does it fundamentally change the way we live and think?
Every technology has a direct impact with micro-ethical consequences, some good, some bad. However more profound are the ways in which some technologies reshape the very fabric of society with macro-ethical impacts. The invention of the stirrup revolutionised mounted combat, but as a side effect gave rise to the feudal system, which still shapes politics today. The internal combustion engine offers personal freedom and creates pollution, but has also transformed the nature of urban planning and international trade. When we look at AI the micro-ethical issues, such as bias, are most obvious, but the macro-ethical challenges may be greater.
At a micro-ethical level AI has the potential to deepen social, ethnic and gender bias, issues I have warned about since the early 1990s! It is also being used increasingly on the battlefield. However, it also offers amazing opportunities in health and educations, as the recent Nobel prizes for the developers of AlphaFold illustrate. More radically, the need to encode ethics acts as a mirror to surface essential ethical problems and conflicts.
At the macro-ethical level, by the early 2000s digital technology had already begun to undermine sovereignty (e.g. gambling), market economics (through network effects and emergent monopolies), and the very meaning of money. Modern AI is the child of big data, big computation and ultimately big business, intensifying the inherent tendency of digital technology to concentrate power. AI is already unravelling the fundamentals of the social, political and economic world around us, but this is a world that needs radical reimagining to overcome the global environmental and human challenges that confront us. Our challenge is whether to let the threads fall as they may, or to use them to weave a better future.
