    Turbocharge your cloud strategy

    From SaaS to PaaS and IaaS, the cloud is growing in maturity. CIOs are looking to the likes of AWS, Azure and Google Cloud Platform for reliable infrastructure, application modernisation, improved backup and disaster recovery, and an ability to harness newer technologies, such as AI and machine learning.  But are CIOs truly getting value out of the cloud? Are they achieving ROI? And if not, why not? In this podcast episode, the first in the series with Avanade and CIO.com, Avanade’s CTO Mark Corley and Azure platform lead Tim Callaghan discuss these points, including: The changing value of cloud: Why it’s no longer just about cost Are we seeing rising cloud costs? Are CIOs repatriating workloads in the new remote working world? Is there more to cloud than ‘lift and shift’? How would most CIOs rate their cloud maturity? How CIOs navigate hybrid and multi-cloud strategies Ultimately, how do CIOs get more value from their cloud investments, for Covid-19 and beyond

    Rethinking cyber security in a remote working world

    Pre Covid-19, it could be argued that CIOs were increasingly adopting a cloud-first strategy in order to help them reduce IT costs while gaining flexibility and scalability.  These same CIOs, however, realised that cloud-first did come with its fair share of security concerns - just look at Capital One, America’s tenth largest bank, which saw a data breach after a Web Application Firewall was misconfigured in AWS, allowing attackers to gain access and steal data. Or look at US health insurer Anthem, which suffered a breach impacting 80 million customers, after cybercriminals smuggled data out of a cloud-based file sharing service.  Even the cloud hyperscalers themselves are not immune from such attacks. Small wonder than that, in one study, 40% of companies admitted they slowed cloud migration due to these issues. Ultimately, most CISOs and CIOs recognise that securing cloud comes down to designing and implementing a relevant security strategy, introducing appropriate training, implementing the appropriate security controls and working with trusted managed service providers to enhance the skills they have in-house. In this episode, Avanade experts Jason Revill and Sangeeta Dewan discuss: The state of cloud security: Where CIOs are today amid global crisis The common myths and misconceptions around cloud security How CIOs maintain security in a heterogeneous IT world The rise of DevSecOps – but is it a reality in 2020? Practical guidance: The tools, techniques and teams needed for cloud security  Tune in now to hear more!

    Letting go of legacy: Is application development slowing CIOs down?

    Application developers have undergone significant shift in recent years. From the waterfall methodology and monolithic architecture to agile DevOps ways of working with containers, orchestration tools and microservices, the end result has been one of speed.  Just look at Trainline which did 12,000 production releases last year, or tech giants like Netflix and Google which do everything almost exclusively in containers. Now, another challenge has come along in the shape of Covid-19. The move to remote working is putting additional strain on applications and developer teams. DevOps teams have moved from being collocated to distributed almost overnight, posing its own technical and personal challenges, while the stark economic realities are pushing some organisations to put developers on furlough, or pause development projects entirely.  Such challenges will need to overcome; organisations must move away from legacy ways of working, and embrace application modernisation to accelerate application development to improve time to market, customer satisfaction and business performance.  In this episode, the final in the Avanade-CIO podcast series, experts Eric Allen and Paul Veitch discuss: From the monolithic to microservices – how application development has evolved over time What DevOps means for your application estate as well as developer and operations teams How Covid-19 has impacted developer and operations teams The importance of custom-built applications Best practice to modernising your application estate Tune in now to hear more!
