“Listen to me!” “Pay attention to what I’m saying!” These are not uncommon things to hear in a relationship, particularly ones that are in stress. My ex-wife used to say I didn’t listen to her…or something like that. There’s a lesson, yes, right there. We live in an extraordinary time where platforms abound from which we can be heard, but is anyone really listening? While preparing for ONUG Fall 2022, I had the privilege of recording promotional video snippets for many of ONUG’s supplier partners….

Enterprise computing is entering its fourth evolution. The large enterprise market has adopted mainframe, client-server, internet and now multicloud computing. And just like the previous computing cycles, multi-cloud is driven by business unit developers. That is, developers use the best tools available to write applications that create business value. They are not wed to any one cloud service provider (CSP), as they will switch development to the CSP that offers them the best application development tools. But as these decentralized decisions go unchecked, cost and…
Helping Cloud Professionals understand the building blocks needed to construct multi-cloud infrastructure There is a massive on-prem infrastructure build about to take place in the mid to large enterprise as evident in the $600B+ 2021 Venture Capital start-up investment bonanza.

That is, application developers have allegiance to cloud service provider (CSP) tools and not necessarily CSP brands. A software engineer will write an application in any CSP or private…
