AI is everywhere. The use cases are innumerable and value immeasurable. We truly are living through an inflection point in the tech industry. But we can’t take full advantage without first making sure the foundation on which those applications are built, is secure. Here, Chris Wolf, Global Head of AI at Broadcom explains what that looks like from the perspective of VMware’s Private AI Foundation. #AI

If it’s true that Thoma Bravo is once again exploring a SailPoint IPO, a few things need to happen for the exit to succeed. On the surface, this move seems like it's defying the odds for a normal four-to-seven year private equity holding period. It's defying the odds of the current IPO window, too. There hasn't been a traditional IPO for a pure cybersecurity company for over 1,000 days (and counting). Current market conditions are anything but favorable, at least for anyone other than the crème de la crème of the IPO pipeline. SailPoint is anything but typical, though. I'm not convinced they even needed to go private in the first place, but here we are. News of an impending IPO is exciting to anyone who (a) likes SailPoint, and (b) wants this IPO drought for our industry to end. This is far from a done deal, but it's credible enough to do some educated speculation about what it might take for SailPoint to go public again and stay there this time. My latest article is about the metrics, narrative, and alternatives that could lead to a second SailPoint IPO. You can read more by following the link on my profile.

You can watch the 6min video if you like, but the impressive things about Cloud Migration Accelerator (CMA) and CMA Studio include: 1. It's THE fastest way to move massive amounts of data to the cloud 2. It allows you to migrate all data while making your data available - think about that for a sec - you can run your business WHILE moving to a modern cloud data posture, and 3. It's trustworthy - what you thought you moved actually moved and CMA can prove it. No one can offer all of this. Only #Armeta

In this episode of Lowdown on Low-Code, hosts Rob Koplowitz and John R Rymer engage with Raveesh Dewan, CEO of Joget, Inc., to discuss the critical role of a Center of Excellence (COE) in the adoption of low-code platforms. Raveesh shares his journey into the low-code space, the evolution of Joget, and the importance of establishing a COE to facilitate technology adoption within organizations. The conversation covers the challenges of setting up a COE, the necessary investment and commitment, the roles within a COE, and the relationship between COE and IT. Raveesh emphasizes that a COE should serve as a coach rather than a gatekeeper, fostering collaboration and ensuring that technology is used effectively across the organization. The episode concludes with insights on the longevity and evolution of COEs as organizations adapt to changing needs. Takeaways • Establishing a COE is a complex task that requires careful planning. • A COE should focus on facilitating and supporting delivery teams, not controlling them. • Senior management commitment is crucial for the success of a COE. • The right mix of technology knowledge and organizational understanding is essential for COE members. • Building relationships with delivery teams is key to a COE's effectiveness. • COEs should be seen as coaches, not gatekeepers. • Investment in a COE should be long-term, not short-term. • COEs must adapt to changes in personnel and organizational goals. • The COE's role is to ensure technology is used appropriately and effectively. • A COE should evolve over time, but never fully disappear as long as technology is in use.
