The Importance of "Self-Disruption" In our recent episode with Aboudi Roustom, PMP, ITIL, and CISSP, we discussed The concept of challenging the status quo, Digital Transformation, and the importance of relevance to evolving customer expectations. Aboudi introduces the concept of "self-disruption," where businesses proactively challenge the status quo to stay ahead of market forces. He cites Netflix as a prime example of self-disruption, evolving from DVD rentals to streaming services and content production. This proactive approach ensures that organizations remain relevant and competitive in the face of emerging technologies and market changes.

Written by: Dr. Amer Albsharat This comprehensive research paper presents an innovative enhancement to the TOGAF framework by integrating advanced artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. Addressing the challenges posed by rapid technological advancements and dynamic business environments, the proposed AI-enhanced TOGAF framework leverages AI techniques such as knowledge graphs, natural language processing (NLP), machine learning (ML), automated reasoning, planning, and optimization. These enhancements aim to streamline architectural processes, improve decision-making, and ensure continuous alignment with evolving business needs. Additionally, the paper incorporates the Modern Unified Security Intelligence (MUSI) model, offering a robust approach to governance, risk, and compliance (GRC), especially in the realms of cybersecurity and regulatory requirements. This integration ensures that architectural decisions and transformations adhere to industry standards, regulatory mandates, and organizational policies. Through a qualitative approach that combines a thorough literature review with expert insights and case studies, the research develops a holistic understanding of integrating AI into enterprise architecture frameworks. The findings provide a detailed roadmap for organizations to develop resilient, secure, and compliant enterprise architectures, driving digital transformation while mitigating risks and fostering stakeholder trust.

It’s been increasingly “aspired” by many organizations in both #public and #private sectors, especially in my region in Middle East, to #consolidate IT functions into #shared services provided by #centralized hubs for software (or even infrastructure) #provisioning. A government entity needs an #iPaaS to build their integrations? Sure, submit a request to said overarching #hub to claim an instance if eligible. A procurement department needs a supplier relationship management (#SRM) solution? No problem! and so on. This model is percieved to streamline #operations, enact #control, reduces #redundancy, and ensures consistent service #delivery across the organization. I tend to agree, if it can be afforded! Granted, with centralized provisioning models organizations can achieve greater #control over software assets, ensure #compliance with governance policies, and optimize resource #utilization and IT #spending across their subsidiaries and departments. But it comes at a #cost; a significant capital investment to build the necessary infrastructure to pose, more or less, as a hosted service / cloud #provider for their own ecosystem. For customers to build their own cloud provider setup, serving their departments or agencies, there are several paths to follow to eventually mimic public cloud providers (ex. AWS, Azure, Alibaba, or GCP), such setup requires a combination of software for #compute, #storage, #networking, #orchestration, and #management. OpenStack and #Kubernetes-based setups are the two main paths, depending on your focus (#VMs vs. #containers). While #OpenStack provides an IaaS experience, Kubernetes-based stacks offer a modern alternative optimized for containerized workloads. Integrating tools for #orchestration, #IAM, #monitoring, #logging, #automation and #confguration management, #billing, service #catalog, and #CICD will round out the environment, creating a robust, manageable local cloud provider solution. Popular stacks that are common to build such local cloud provider setup include, #OpenStack which often considered the closest to a “full-stack” cloud provider solution. It provides compute, storage, and networking services, with a suite of tools like #Horizon (dashboard), #Keystone (IAM), and #Cinder (block storage). Apache CloudStack is another open-source platform which includes management, compute, storage, and networking features, though with simpler configuration and management. For a container-focused setup, #Kubernetes provides the compute layer, #Rook manages storage orchestration for Ceph (distributed storage), unless customers favor Portworx by Pure Storage path, and Project Calico / #Flannel / Cilium to provide networking! This latter stack is suitable if customers need an environment heavily focused on containerized workloads. When organizations got such foundation ready, they are equipped to enrich their catalog and start conrolled provisioning for the services to downstream subscribers.

Talks of Saudi Arabia investing $100B into data centres and AI are only part of the story These headlines are doing the rounds and they’re great, but it goes so much deeper than that. ⏺️ First, let’s take a look at some of the key initiatives that’ve been underway in KSA: → Oracle’s $1.5 billion Cloud Expansion in Riyadh Oracle adding to existing investment towards a 60 MW data center by 2026 → Amazon Web Services (AWS) $5.3 billion Investment AWS is set to open a new region by 2026, focusing on local talent development and creating thousands of high-skilled jobs. → center3 launched with $1B investment Created by stc to become the digital hub connecting Asia, Europe, and Africa. Now owns more than 25 data centres. → DataVolt’s $5 billion commitment Developing data centers with over 300 MW capacity to expand data infrastructure with Center3 as a strategic partner. → TONOMUS (NEOM) Telecommunications Center TONOMUS invested $500 million to build a cutting-edge data center to support AI, IoT, and 5G capabilities. → DAMAC Group & Cinturion - $1 billion Data Center in Jeddah Constructing a data center and cable landing station near Jeddah, targeting total capacity of 55 MW by 2025 to serve regional enterprises. → MIS - Al Moammar Information Systems Co. 414.43 million in Dammam Expansion MIS is expanding data centers in Dammam in a $2.6 billion initiative funded by Saudi Fransi Capital to develop six data centers across the Kingdom. → Cloud Computing Special Economic Zone (CCSEZ) Launched in 2023, offering a range of incentives for foreign investors. The zone is set to account for 30% of KSA’s ICT spend by 2030. → 100B Project Transcendence AI Initiative Backed by the Public Investment Fund (PIF) this initiative plans to invest up to $100 billion to develop AI infrastructure, startups, and talent. → PIF & Google AI Hub Partnership Planned investment between $5 billion to $10 billion, focuses on creating an AI hub to develop Arabic language models and bolster cloud services. → Microsoft’s Expansion in Saudi Arabia Microsoft is expanding its cloud regions by building new data centers to support growing demand for cloud computing and digital solutions. I can only get into a fraction of the initiatives in this post. But why do I find this particularly exciting to observe? Porter wrote in his 1996 HBR article about how ‘activity fit’ determines the power of an enterprise. It enables the creation of competitive advantage, which leads to market dominance and so on. The existence of one activity connects and supports the next, which benefits the next, and so on. In this instance, the region is being rapidly encouraged and enabled towards: ⏺ Digital transformations ⏺ Cloud adoption ⏺ Knowledge creation ⏺ Investment attraction ⏺ Talent development ⏺ Regulatory easement All of these activities combined form a recipe for economic-level dominance. Share this with a cloud computing CEO if you found it interesting and leave your thoughts below.
