SHOW NOTES:


Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Before we get into today’s discussion, give us a little bit on your background and some of the areas you focus on.  

Topic 2 - We’ve done quite a few shows with Intel over the years. This is where we were first introduced to how much work Intel does directly for the largest public cloud providers. Can you give us a sense of how much Intel has evolved to help the cloud providers deliver the scale and performance they do today? 

Topic 3 - A few months ago we spoke about Confidential Computing. We all know that security is a challenge best solved with defense-in-depth. Can we talk a little bit about the intersection of embedded security in silicon, and being able to keep up with new performance challenges with the new Ice Lake architecture? 

Topic 4 - How do we raise awareness that these native capabilities are available across all the cloud providers - AWS, Azure, Google, Oracle, etc., when software features tend to dominate the headlines? 

Topic 5 - What do you see as some of the next-generation security challenges that the cloud is well-positioned to (maybe) better handle that we could in data centers?

Topic 6 - Sometimes people see Intel as being one-step removed from the technology companies they directly engage with. What are some of the ways that people can more directly engage in all the programs (developer tools, reference architectures, etc.) that Intel creates?

AzureStack for Hybrid Cloud

Carmen Crincoli (@carmencrincoli, Sr. ProgMgr @Microsoft) + Todd Christ (@toadster, Ent. Solutions Architect, @IntelBusiness) talk about the evolution of AzureStack, how HCI is being extended as a cloud service, and how COVID is creating new use-cases for on-premises and public cloud.

PodCTL Podcast is Back (Enterprise Kubernetes) - http://podctl.com

SHOW NOTES:


Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Todd has been a guest before, but Carmen is new. Tell us a little bit about both of your backgrounds.

Topic 2 - Let start by talking about AzureStack, in a broader context. The “brand” has been in the market for quite a while, but it really went through an evolution about a year ago - different services add, different buying options, etc. Help understand the broader AzureStack story.

Topic 3 - When most people think of HCI, they think about Compute, Storage, and VMs - simplifying the complexity of those systems. Now the world is moving more to the cloud, but on-premises still remains. Let’s talk about the concept of HCI becoming an extended cloud service and how that’s evolving.

Topic 4 - VMs, Containers, Backup/Recovery, Auto-Updates are now all built-in to AzureStackHCI. Which group (or groups) is managing AzureStackHCI in a typical company? 

Topic 5 - How important is it to support disconnected (from the cloud) AzureStack HCI instances? Can there be scenarios that are partially-disconnected? 

Topic 6 - Are you seeing any new or unexpected use-cases because of COVID-19, or now that HCI can be viewed as an extension of the public cloud?

PodCTL Podcast is Back (Enterprise Kubernetes) - http://podctl.com

SHOW NOTES:


Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Before we dig into today’s discussion, can you give us a little bit about your background?

Topic 2 - Defense in Depth is a strategy that has long been in place in Enterprise computing. We’ve seen previous approaches that connected the OS or Application with the Hardware (e.g. Intel TXT). How has this space evolved over the last few years, and what are some of the reasons why we need another level of depth?

Topic 3 - Let’s talk about the technology basics of Confidential Computing. What are the software elements (Application, OS, SDK) and what are the hardware elements? 

Topic 4 -  What is the normal migration path for a company to move workloads into Confidential Computing environments? Is this primarily for new workloads, or does it apply to existing applications too? 

Topic 5 - Azure has the ability to deliver either Confidential VMs, or recently added Confidential containers along with AKS. When does it make sense to be confidential in one part of the stack vs. other? 

Topic 6 - What are some areas where you’re seeing the broader ecosystem (e.g. technology partners or end-user customers) beginning to expand out the functionality of Confidential Computing?

Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. You’ve had a really interesting mix of industry, government and academic work around Deep Learning. Tell us a little bit about the areas you focus on. 

Topic 2 - Tensorflow is one of the most popular OSS projects on Github. Help us understand the types of data problems where Tensorflow is the best tool/framework (e.g. neural networks). What are some of the most popular capabilities? 

Topic 3 - Tensorflow is focused on looking at how data flows through graphs. Are there common types of ML problems that are more appropriate for using Tensorflow than other ML models? 

Topic 4 - Tensorflow is able to run on a broad set of hardware, but obviously there is a point where specialized hardware is needed for certain performance or scaling. What are some of the things that Intel is doing to help improve the experience with Tensorflow? 

Topic 5 - Tensorflow works primarily with the Python programming language. Beyond having some background with Python, what are some of the skills that are needed to get started and be successful with Tensorflow? 

Topic 6 - Having worked with Tensorflow for a while now, what are some of the learning paths that you’ve found successful (problems areas, communities of interest, tools, new skills, etc.)?

The Cloudcast #220 - The World of Many Clouds

Aaron and Brian talk with Jonathan Donaldson (@jdonalds; VP/GM, Software Defined Infrastructure at Intel) about old times, how quickly the Cloud Computing market is evolving, the breadth of projects that the Intel SDI groups engages with, how to growth the number of clouds, and how Intel is addressing the IoT market.


Topic 1 - Aaron and I both have known you for many years, and worked with you in various other organizations, but give our listeners not only your background but the things you’re working on at Intel these days.

Topic 2 - The market is going pretty crazy these days as it relates to cloud - Dell/EMC merger and subsequent Virtustream announcement; HP getting out of public cloud (again); AWS announcing huge growth and new services; Rackspace becoming a service company for other clouds. Intel has pretty unique perspective. Help us see through all this cloudiness.

Topic 3 - A lot of us follow Nick Weaver (@lynxbat) and the stuff he’s interested in (container, scheduling frameworks, automation, etc.) and we see some of the investments that Intel makes (or maybe they are just partnerships). As a VP/GM, how do you think about strategy when so many dynamics (economics, technology) are changing so rapidly?

Topic 4 - The Cloud for All program is talking about “1000s of Clouds”. What do you think are the biggest areas that need to improve for that to happen, and are there some core applications that might accelerate this?

Topic 5 - We’re starting to see lots of companies announce IoT platforms (Salesforce, AWS, SAP, Dell, Cisco, etc.). IoT is a cloud play and a device play. Where does Intel and SDI see the state of IoT these days?
