Back to the future with cloudBusinesses agree there is an abundance of opportunities in digital transformation. Yet, as they welcome new technologies, they often keep old structures and practices in place that hold them back. In 2010 SAP embraced cloud to offer customers choice in how they consume SAP’s software. As the world’s largest enterprise software company, with its software playing a role in up to 77% of global transactions, the company embarked on one of the most comprehensive and complex digital transformation journeys the industry has seen. The results have been significant: the revenue, profit and the number of employees have more than doubled since 2010 and by 2023, SAP projects that it will approach the 80% mark for its predictable revenue. But, it all started with the commitment to re-invent the traditional business model with the customer at the centre, and re-imagine the company culture. |

The democratisation of innovationOrganisations historically designed themselves as castles with moats, where valuable resources were only accessed by a small, trusted group. However, today’s hyper-disruptive landscape makes it extremely difficult to guess what the market wants at any given time. To succeed these days, organisations need to decentralise and design with the broader villages in mind. Different groups need to be able to freely access valuable data so they can self start and build up their own economies. Tune into Ross’ session to learn how organisations can democratise innovation and why APIs should be central to any strategy. |

Chaos Engineering: Why breaking things should be practicedEver wondered how companies delivering global services like Amazon or Netflix are architecting and testing their software systems? If so, this session is for you. With the rise of microservices and large-scale distributed architectures, software systems have grown increasingly complex and hard to understand. Adding to that complexity, the velocity of software delivery has also dramatically increased, resulting in failures being harder to predict and contain. While the cloud allows for high availability, redundancy and fault tolerance, no single component can guarantee 100% uptime. Therefore, we have to understand availability but especially learn how to design architectures with failure in mind. And since failures have become more and more chaotic in nature, we must turn to chaos engineering in order to identify failures before they become outages. In this talk, we will look into availability, reliability and large-scale architectures and make an introduction to chaos engineering, a discipline that promotes breaking things on purpose in order to learn how to build more resilient systems. |

We'll show how to do all of this with Python, using a Jupyter notebook hosted from Amazon Sagemaker (a service from AWS that makes it easy to develop, train, and deploy deep-learning models in the cloud). Finally, we'll finish up with a review of where to continue learning more. |

How AI has opened up the world of dataFor the majority of the digital age, data was not something the average worker thought about. It sat on servers, waiting to be accessed by data analysts and later presented by C-suite executives at board meetings. Then, in the early 2000s, data visualisation tools unlocked new ways for teams to create and present their own charts and graphs. Fast forward to today and the average worker in every industry is expected to make “data driven decisions” and be more “data literate.” Now, advances in artificial intelligence are making data insights better and more accessible, no data scientists required. It’s a remarkable evolution that is only just getting started. |
