Time Is Running Out For The "Journey To The Cloud"
Cloud is all, correct? Just as all roads lead to Rome, so all information technology journeys inevitably result in everything being, in some shape or form, "in the cloud." So we are informed, at least: this journey started back in the mid 2000s, as application service providers (ASPs) gave way to various as-a-service offerings, and […]

How APM, Observability and AIOps drive Operational Awareness
Ron Williams explains all to Jon Collins Jon Collins: Hi Ron, thanks for joining me! I have two questions, if I may. One's the general question of observability versus what's been called application performance monitoring, APM - there's been some debate about this in the industry, I know. Also, how do they both fit in […]

Can low code process automation platforms fix healthcare?
I was lucky enough to sit down with Appian's healthcare industry lead, Fritz Haimberger. Fritz is someone who practices what he preaches — outside of his day job, he still spare-times as a medic and a firefighter in his hometown of Franklin, Tennessee (just outside Nashville). I've been lucky enough to work with various healthcare […]

Now's the Moment to be Thinking About Sovereign Cloud
Sovereign Cloud was one of VMware's big announcements at its annual VMware Explore Europe conference this year. Not that the company was announcing the still-evolving notion of sovereignty, but what it calls "sovereign-ready solutions." Data sovereignty is the need to ensure data is managed according to local and national laws. This has always been important, […]

Five Top Tips for Radar Briefings
Inspired by Harley Manning's excellent advice on vendor briefings for evaluations, I thought I would document some of my recent experiences. Let's be realistic: GigaOm is not the gorilla in the analyst market. Plus, we have some curious differences from other analyst firms — not least that we major in practitioner-led evaluation, bringing in an […]

Achieve more with GigaOm
As we have grown substantially over the past two years. We are often asked who (even) is GigaOm, what the company does, how it differentiates, and so on.

Pragmatic view of Zero Trust
Traditionally we have taken the approach that we trust everything in the network, everything in the enterprise, and put our security at the edge of that boundary. Pass all of our checks and you are in the "trusted" group. That worked well when the opposition was not sophisticated, most end user workstations were desktops, the […]

Retrospective thoughts on KubeCon Europe 2022
I'm not going to lie. As I sit on a plane flying away from Valencia, I confess to have been taken aback by the scale of Kubecon Europe this year. In my defence, I wasn't alone the volume of attendees appeared to take conference organisers and exhibitors by surprise, illustrated by the notable lack of […]
