At the moment, cloud containers are a hot topic in technology, and security in particular.

The world’s top technology companies, including Microsoft, Google and Facebook, all use them.

Although it’s still early days, containers are seeing increasing use in production environments.

They promise a streamlined, easy-to-deploy and secure method of implementing specific infrastructure requirements, and they also offer an alternative to virtual machines.

The key differentiator with containers is the minimalist nature of their deployment.

Unlike virtual machines, they don’t need a full OS to be installed within the container, and they don’t need a virtual copy of the host server’s hardware.

Containers are able to operate with the minimum amount of resources to perform the task they were designed for; this can mean just a few pieces of software, libraries and the basics of an Operating System.

With guest Stephen Bourke, Public Cloud IaaS Specialist at Oracle.

It is fair to say that the lawmakers have always been behind the rate of technology advances when it comes to updating laws and regulations to keep in line with the pace of technology. Indeed, it is virtually impossible.

But what are the laws that you need to understand and what are coming down the line that will have a fundamental effect on how you manage your technology stack and your data? Indeed, what control do you have?

A good example of this is the recent CLOUD Act in the US which would change the legal requirements for law enforcement agencies seeking to gain access to data stored on overseas servers.

So what should we be looking out for?

With guests: Frank Jennings and Rebecca Butler from Wallace LLP.

The Public Sector has traditionally been viewed as a slow or late adopter of technology. One could argue that this is no different for Cloud.

That being said, initiatives such as the Government Digital Service in the UK have accelerated adoption and it is easy to forget that there have been many successes in the Public Sector with the adoption of Cloud technologies and services.

The eternal question, and the reality, will always centre on budgets, culture and the winds of political change. But can Government Departments at Central and Local Government do more to achieve their outcomes?

Edge computing can be defined as a “mesh network of micro data centres that process or store critical data locally and push all received data to a central data centre or cloud storage repository, in a footprint of less than 100 square feet.” Now there are some crystal ball gazers who are saying that Cloud is dead and Edge computing is the future. But, where did Edge come from? A product called NATS started this trend, where enterprise messaging systems and platform technologies could be decomposed into things called microservices using the processing capacity of devices at the end user rather in remote computing. There is clear value in utilising the processing power of devices that are close to the end user. The key factor here lies in some basic physics – so if you did not pay attention in school about the speed of light, you might have to concentrate hard now.

We all accept that we all do a form of multi-cloud (i.e. we consume several cloud services in isolation – e.g. on your phone we use different social media, email, etc all separate clouds) – but that is not the point of this discussion.

The point of the debate is whether it is realistic for organisations to run on two or more cloud services to run a business process or set of workloads.

But which one is right, if at all?

With guests Bill Mew, Founder @Mew_Era and Steve Chambers, COO @cloudsoft

This topic is arguably the least understood both by businesses and the technology industry itself.

Cloud economics is more than just cost optimisation, more than helping organisations when they move to cloud and see their bill come in and recoil in horror as they see the extent of their cloud sprawl.

Every organisation hits a point in their cloud journey where they really start to care about their spend, especially when it is operational spend and this normally happens after they complete a reasonably large migration to cloud services. Be the pounds and pence of line items in the bill or getting to predictive analytics to forecasting spend based upon reasonably assumed points of peak usage.

There is a veritable smorgasbord of analytics solutions out there that offer this but they get to a certain point and just stop or offer beta services and claim no responsibility for things that are more complicated that clients want to do with their services.

Telecom carriers and their role in cloud.

For last 20 years, it is fair to say that continuous technical transformation and information waves have driven a high level of growth in the telecom industry.

However, where find ourselves in a situation where the telecoms industry is facing a series of challenges.

Connectivity is capturing a smaller proportion of the information value chain while content, service, and products capture more. I don’t think it is that much of a bold prediction to see that that one or more major telecom companies could be acquired by a content company within the next 3 – 4 years.

Further, trends such as IoT and mobile are adding billions of new connected data sources globally every year – with that comes an astronomical growth in data volumes.

Telecoms companies are also in the heart of the security challenge.

As custodians of the networks, carriers play a pivotal role in fighting the new threats that are emerging.

The future of IT organisations has always been a hot topic, but the rules of the game are changing in a cloud first world. Our host, Jez Back, is joined by David Newbould from TechData and Simon Ratcliffe from Ensono to explore this difficult topic. Look out for the special guest appearance from Ernesto as well!

Digital transformation is in full swing in the technology sector. But decision makers are now being challenged to go further and create digital and technology ecosystems that encompass customers, employees, developers, suppliers, and even extended networks of related businesses.

Hosts Jez Back and David Organ are joined this episode by Carolyn Mumby who is the CEO of Eledecks and Nathan Lowis from DataDog.

The IoT Show delivers valuable insights for industrial organisations on the industrial internet of things and topics touching the broader internet of things. We pick engaging, hot topics, and ask our speakers to advise on situations, opportunities, and recommendations and gotchas. This series is not a sales medium, rather a series of discussions for you to benefit from the experiences and insights of others.

In this sixth episode, we look at Disruption: Automation, IoT and IIoT

Automation takes on many meanings dependent on the industry.

Historically automation was focused on the assets; assets being PLCs or embedded devices, for example. Automation was getting the asset to do what one wanted it to do.
