On Cloud

Google's head of developer media, Forrest Brazeal, discusses the tech talent shortage and addresses it with gen AI. They talk about the Cloud Resume Challenge as a community initiative to create learning opportunities. The potential impact of generative AI on learning and enterprise challenges is explored. The role of legacy systems and the importance of understanding their value are discussed. The importance of journalistic knowledge in technology decision-making is highlighted.

Cloud complexity is growing for banks. Reining it in requires managing risk, becoming more agile, and adapting the enterprise culture to cloud.

Turn cloud challenges into opportunities to boost cloud value by preparing for cloud, controlling costs, prioritizing security, and maintaining flexibility.

Edge computing is growing in power. Its capabilities are almost limitless. Companies can leverage it now to prepare for an edge-based future.

To optimize cloud costs, leverage FinOps, develop a sound cloud cost optimization strategy, and build a culture of optimization and accountability.

Companies are changing the way they use cloud, focusing on hybrid and multi-cloud architectures. The podcast discusses the challenges and benefits of adopting these architectures, bridging on-prem data centers with the public cloud, and the increasing adoption of generative AI in businesses. The speakers also talk about reaching out on social media, multi-cloud solutions, and the rising demand for AI storage.

Google Cloud Next 2023 was all about innovation. Generative AI was the star of the show, with over a dozen AI tools introduced. Google also showcased its partnership with NVIDIA to leverage the power of generative AI.

Space is a new frontier for cloud and edge computing. It's a booming business with almost unlimited possibilities and the potential to advance R&D capabilities.

The space race is on, again, and it's creating tremendous business opportunities on Earth. In this episode, Deloitte's David Linthicum, Kelly Raskovich, and Raquel Buscaino discuss how deploying cloud platforms in space can provide advantages to businesses that leverage them. Reduced launch costs have already sent more satellites to space, which has led to an explosion in data and insights, especially for companies that put cloud infrastructure in space to analyze it at the point of origin.

Generative AI is here, it's powerful, and it's growing. It holds the promise to disrupt everything and play a significant role in our daily lives. Now's the time to harness its amazing power.
