#Cloud : What are the biggest challenges in #cloud and in adopting #containers #microservices and #devops ?
Fabio Giannetti
change the way you develop a ship code
Fabio Giannetti
is like you have to re-design your supply chain :-)
Ashutosh Malegaonkar
Microservices seems the way to go, but it's complicated. Education about it is key !
Ben Schumacher
Confusion re: critical elements of #cloud. Tools aren't as important as team and processes.
ashley roach
probably easiest to start adopting #containers using greenfield applications.
ashley roach
otherwise, refactoring a working application probably doesn't make sense for, say, an enterprise.
Jock Reed
Yeah I think the biggest problems are still companies getting started. A whole lot of people are still stuck on traditional architectures. #Cloud #DevNetCreate
Ken Owens
As with all new technology - its training your people
Jacob Adams
Maybe this is a niche thought, but I think there's a struggle to break large monolithic applications into a 12 factor/microserviced style apps! That's a lot of dev + resources, especially for old apps!
Ken Owens
start with setting a vision and getting your devops, eng, support, and business aligned
Jock Reed
Training and taking partners with companies that want to help bridge the void from #CloudReady will be the key, like @Cisco and @Docker
susie wee
Architecting applications as micro services is a change in itself.
Ken Owens
identify the business opportunity that can gain the most by cloud native methodody
Ken Owens
pick something moderately difficult - you can not learn anything from easy problems
Ken Owens
break the business solution into services and determine the best #microservices architecture to address
Ben Schumacher
@aroach I'm not certain I agree w/this. There's value to be gained in better supporting tooling, but there can be significant investment.
Neelesh Pateriya
Bootstrapping team, infrastructure and processes for microservice/containers. Once bootstrapped, development & delivery moves to fast lane.
Ken Owens
as your developing your services, refactor your tools, processes, and business support systemjs (monitoring, alerting, billing)
Wael Kamel
devops and which model to follow we are looking at following the self-service model that Damon Edwards talked about
ashley roach
@benschumacher right. i suppose you'd need some hard business drivers such as scale or performance. certainly #shinyobjects isn't a good reason. it probably will happen, but may take a loooooooooooooong time.
Tessa Mero
challenges always include adapting to the extensibility of your software
Tessa Mero
Senior engineers and managements willingness for change with using tools as your product evolves
Ben Schumacher
@aroach Couldn't agree more.
Edwin
Alignment is the key. People have different thoughts on DevOps - level of automation, level of complexity, avoid over engineering etc
Jock Reed
@aroach I am thinking a lot of companies might find a lift and shift useful for starters, moving VM apps to containers. Once their #container app skills grow, then develop the right way. But starting on the path is the key.
Ben Schumacher
@JockDaRock Right! Lift & shift carries its own complexities. Great tools can smooth the transition.

#IoT : What are the most important directions in #IoT ? What's next?
susie wee
There are huge opportunities to smartly interface the #IoT apps to the #network . Note: I say "smartly".
susie wee
For example, we can use "network segmentation" to ensure #IoT devices are on an appropriate network segment, which allows them to be secured as needed.
Stuart Clark
automate everything!
Krishan Veer
how you bring these things work together to create new end user experiences or increase productivity
Ben Schumacher
This covers both #IoT and #Cloud, but machine learning driven automation is rapidly arriving.
Jacob Adams
One big aspect of IoT to me. IoT = More data in, more insight discovered, more automation out! Cut the fat with data + automation in the real world.
mandy whaley
i think the combination of data that we have and are gathering such as https://opportunity.... combined with #IoT creates really interesting ways to help communities
Jacob Adams
@jacob200ok But maybe that's too general :)
John Furrier
next big trend is programmable and intelligent edge
Jacob Adams
@mandywhaley Using IoT to help the community I think can help many overcome the fear of "robots taking over the world." Anyway we can help the community is stellar.
Shubha Govil
It is the possibility all new end user experiences that were not possible without connectivity of things, people, places
susie wee
We have opportunities in data stream processing and analytics for #IoT. We need to flexibly process data on the device, at the edge, and in the cloud. Huge opportunity to get insights from the data.
mandy whaley
@furrier agree - that is a place where there is a lot of opportunities for clever developers
mandy whaley
@mandywhaley but i still think the AI generated paint names are hilarious - http://gizmodo.com/t...
Ashutosh Malegaonkar
a lot of stuff happening/proving in the consumer side of things(#maker). start getting the best practices to enterprises and industrial IoT
Jock Reed
I think the direction will be as computers get smaller & more intelligent #IoT will only be reliant on #Cloud for redundancy. IoT devices will have the ability to make important decisions without input from the cloud #OnPremAI #OnPremDataLearning
Tom Davies
I would definitely say #blockchain solutions have a large role to play in IoT moving forward - security, distribution, scale and multi-enterprise needs.
Wael Kamel
V2X, Vehicle to Infrastructure, Vehicle 2 Vehicle, Vehicle to Pedestrian etc to will see big advancement in the future
susie wee
#IoT: What are the biggest problems we need to solve to make Industrial #IoT real in the years ahead?
Krishan Veer
Solve auto firmware upgrades to address security issues timely and aggressively
John Furrier
#1 challenge in #IoT imho is what data to move and when if at all
Jock Reed
I think the biggest problems facing IoT right now are lack of developers in that space and lack of unified standards, frameworks / platforms for developing IoT applications #IoT #Developers
Shubha Govil
need to solve for common standards, things are growing really fast with #IoT and no common standards yet
Ken Owens
Security of things
Tom Davies
How enterprises fold in new IoT solutions into existing business and operational processes successfully, as part of using them effectively.
Ben Schumacher
Understand business value. Real impact creates real value, see VC investment in Notion.
susie wee
The roles of players in the #IoT ecosystem is still being worked out... what's done on the device, at the edge, in the cloud.
Wael Kamel
For IoT to be for real we will need reliable and resilient connectivity which will be crucial for Connected car type applications in addition to security solutions like blockchain
Ashutosh Malegaonkar
Industrial IoT - changing the mindset... heard it from a lot of folks - "my PLC system does that today, what will IoT give me"
mandy whaley
how enterprises handle the many transitions that are happening at the same time- cloud, IoT, DevOps, change in speed of business
Ben Schumacher
@benschumacher Re: @notion, they're working on #IoT devices for insurance providers. http://www.denverpos...
Jock Reed
On the growing the community of #developers in this space. I think the industry needs to build off of the expertise of developers in the spaces of #AppDevs #DevOps #DataDevelopers. Those will also be key to the future #DevNetCreate
Edwin
shared standard and infrastructure
Tessa Mero
IoT's focus has been on complex situations. How about we make it solve simpler things like automating kitchen tasks or parenthood *smiles*
