>>live from Atlanta, Georgia. It's the Q covering answerable best 2019. Brought to you by Red hat. >>Welcome back, everyone to the Cube. Live coverage in Atlanta, Georgia for answerable fest. This is Red Hats Event where all the practices come together. The community to talk about automation anywhere. John Kerry with my coast to Minutemen, our next two guests arrive. And Bergeron, principal community architect for answerable now Red Hat and Greg Dankers Berg, senior director, Community Ansel's. Well, thanks for coming on. Appreciate it. >>Thank you. >>Okay, So we were talking before camera that you guys had. This is a two day event. We're covering the Cube. You guys have an awful fast, but you got your community day yesterday. The day before the people came in early. The core community heard great things about it. Love to get an update. Could you share just what happened yesterday? And then we'll get in some of the community. Sure. >>We s o uh, for all of our answer professed for a while now we've started them with ah, community contributor conference. And the goal of that conference is to get together. Ah, lot of the people we work with online right people we see is IRC nicks or get hub handles rights to get them together in the same room. Ah, have them interact with, uh, with core members of our team. Uh, and that's where we really do, uh, make a lot of decisions about how we're gonna be going forward, get really direct feedback from some of our key contributors about the decisions were making The things were thinking about, uh, with the goal of, you know, involving our community deeply in a lot of decisions we make, that's >>a working session, meets social, get together. That's >>right, Several working sessions and then, you know, drinks afterward for those who want the drinks and just hang out time that >>way. Drinks and their last night was really good. I got the end of it. I missed the session, but >>they have the peaches, peaches, it on the >>table. That was good. But this is the dynamic community. This is one things we notice here. Not a seat open in the house on the keynote Skinny Ramon Lee, active participant base from this organic as well Be now going mainstream. How >>you >>guys handling it, how you guys ride in this way? Because certainly you certainly do. The communities which is great for feedback get from the community. But as you have the commercial eyes open sores and answerable, it's a tough task. >>Well, I'd like to think part of it is, I guess maybe it's not our first rodeo. Is that what we'd say? I mean, yeah, uh, for Ansel. I worked at ELASTICSEARCH, uh, doing community stuff. Before that, I worked at Red Hat. It was a fedora. Project leader, number five. And you were Fedora project Leader. What number was that? Number one depends >>on how you count, but >>you're the You're the one that got us to be able to call it having a federal project leader. So I sort of was number one. So we've been dealing with this stuff for a really long time. It's different in Anselm that, you know, unlike a lot of, you know, holds old school things like fedora. You know, a lot of this stuff is newer and part of the reason it's really important for us to get You know, some of these folks here to talk to us in person is that you know especially. And you saw my keynote this morning where they talked about we talked about modularity. Lot of these folks are really just focused on. They're one little bit and they don't always have is much time. People are working in lots of open source projects now, right, and it's hard to pay deep attention to every single little thing all the time. So this gives them a day of in case you missed it. Here's the deep, dark dive into everything that you know we're planning or thinking about, and they really are. You know, people who are managing those smaller parts all around answerable, really are some of our best feedback loops, right? Because they're people who probably wrote that model because they're using it every single day and their hard core Ansel users. But they also understand how to participate in community so we can get those people actually talking with the rest of us who a lot of us used to be so sad. Men's. I used to be a sis admin, lots of us. You know. A lot of our employees actually just got into wanting to work on Ansel because they loved using it so much of their jobs. And when you're not, actually, since admitting every day, you you lose a little bit of >>the front lines with the truth of what's around. Truth is right there >>and putting all these people together in room make sure that they all also, you know, when you have to look at someone in the eye and tell them news that they might not like you have a different level of empathy and you approach it a little bit differently than you may on the Internet. So, >>Robin So I lived in your keynote this morning. You talked about answerable. First commit was only back in 2012. So that simplicity of that modularity and the learnings from where open source had been in the past Yes, they're a little bit, you know, what could answerable do, being a relatively young project that it might not have been able to dio if it had a couple of decades of history? >>Maybe Greg should tell the story about the funk project >>way. There was a There was a project, a tread hat that we started in 2007 in a coffee shop in Chapel Hill, North Carolina is Ah, myself and Michael the Han and Seth the doll on entry likens Who still works with this with us? A danceable Ah, and we we put together Ah, an idea with all the same underpinnings, right? Ah, highly modular automation tool We debated at the time whether it should be based on SSL or SS H for funk. We chose SSL Ah, and you know, after watching that grow to a certain point and then stagnates and it being inside of red Hat where, you know, there were a lot of other business pressures, things like that. We learned a lot from that experience and we were able to take that experience. And then in 2012 there there's the open source community was a little different. Open source was more acceptable. Get Hubbell was becoming a common plat platform for open source project hosting. And so a lot of things came together in a short pier Time All that experience, although, >>and also market conditions, agenda market conditions in 2007 Cloud was sort of a weird thing that not really everyone was doing 2012 rolls around. Everyone has these cloud images and they need to figure out how to get something in it. Um, and it turns out that Hansel's a really great way to actually do that. And, you know, even if we had picked SS H back in the beginning, I don't know, you know, not have had time projects grow to a certain point. And I could point a lots of projects that were just It's a shame they were so ahead of their time. And because of that, you know, >>timing is everything with the key. I think now what I've always admired about the simplicity is automation requires that the abstract, the way, the complexities and so I think you bring a cloud that brings up more complexity, more use cases for some of the underlying paintings of the plumbing. And this is always gonna This is a moving train that's never going to stop. What was the feedback from the community this year around? As you guys get into some of these analytical capabilities, so the new features have a platform flair to it. It's a platform you guys announced answerable automation platform that implies that enables some value. >>You know, I >>think in >>a way. We've always been a platform, right, because platform is a set of small rules and then modules that attached to it. It's about how that grows, right? And, uh, traditionally, we've had a batteries included model where every module and plug in was built to go into answerable Boy, that got really big bright and >>we like to hear it. I don't even know how many I keep say, I'll >>say 2000. Then it'll be 3000 say 3000 >>something else, a lot of content. And it's, you know, in the beginning, it was I can't imagine this ever being more than 202 150 batteries included, and at some point, you know, it's like, Whoa, yeah, taking care of this and making sure it all works together all the time gets >>You guys have done a great You guys have done a great job with community, and one of the things that you met with Cloud is as more use cases come, scale becomes a big question, and there's real business benefits now, so open source has become part of the business. People talk about business, models will open source. You guys know that you've been part of that 28 years of history with Lennox. But now you're seeing Dev Ops, which is you'll go back to 78 2009 10 time frame The only the purest we're talking Dev ops. At that time, Infrastructures Co was being kicked around. We certainly been covering the cubes is 2010 on that? But now, in mainstream enterprise, it seems like the commercialization and operational izing of Dev ops is here. You guys have a proof point in your own community. People talk about culture, about relationships. We have one guest on time, but they're now friends with the other guy group dowels. So you stay. The collaboration is now becoming a big part of it because of the playbook because of the of these these instances. So talk about that dynamic of operational izing the Dev Ops movement for Enterprise. >>All right, so I remember Ah, an example at one of the first answer professed I ever went thio There were there were a few before I came on board. Ah, but it was I >>think it was >>the 1st 1 I came to when I was about to make the jump from my previous company, and I was just There is a visitor and a friend of the team, and there was an adman who talked to me and said, For the first time, I have this thing, this playbook, that I can write and that I can hand to my manager and say this is what we're going to D'oh! Right? And so there was this artifact that allowed for a bridging between different parts of the organization. That was the simplicity of that playbook that was human readable, that he could show to his boss or to someone else in the organ that they could agree on. And suddenly there was this sort of a document that was a mechanism for collaboration that everyone could understand buy into that hadn't really existed before. Answerable existed after me. That was one of the many, you know, flip of the light moments where I was like, Oh, wow, maybe we have something >>really big. There were plenty of other infrastructures, code things that you could hand to someone. But, you know, for a lot of people, it's like I don't speak that language right? That's why we like to say like Ansel sort of this universal automation language, right? Like everybody can read it. You don't have to be a rocket scientist. Uh, it's, you know, great for your exact example, right? I'm showing this to my manager and saying This is the order of operations and you don't have to be a genius to read it because it's really, really readable >>connecting system which connects people >>right. It's fascinating to May is there was this whole wave of enterprise collaboration tools that the enterprise would try to push down and force people to collaborate. But here is a technology tool that from the ground up, is getting people to do that collaboration. And they want to do it. And it's helping bury some >>of those walls. And it's interesting you mention that I'm sure that something like slack is a thing that falls into that category. And they've built around making sure that the 20 billion people inside a company all sign up until somebody in the I T departments like, What do you mean? These random people are just everyone's using it. No one saving it isn't secure, and they all freak out, and, um, well, I mean, this is sort of, you know, everybody tells her friend about Ansel and they go, Oh, right, Tool. That's gonna save the world Number 22 0 wait, actually, yeah. No, this is This actually is pretty cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get started. >>Well, you know, sometimes the better mouse trap will always drive people to that solution. You guys have proven that organic. What's interesting to me is not only does it keep win on capabilities, it actually grew organically. And this connective tissue between different groups, >>right? Got it >>breaks down that hole silo mentality. And that's really where I tease been stuck? Yes. And as software becomes more prominent and data becomes more prominent, it's gonna just shift more power in the hands of developer and to the, uh, just add mons who are now being redeployed into being systems, architects or whatever they are. This transitional human rolls with automation, >>transformation architect >>Oh my God, that's a real title. I don't >>have it, but >>double my pay. I'll take it. >>So collections is one of the key things talked about when we talk about the Antelope Automation platform. Been hearing a lot discussion about how the partner ecosystems really stepping up even more than before. You know, 4600 plus contributors out there in community, But the partners stepping up Where do you see this going? Where? Well, collections really catalyze the next growth for your >>It's got to be the future for us that, you know, there there were a >>few >>key problems that we recognize that the collections was ultimately the the dissolution that we chose. Uh, you know, one key problem is that with the batteries included model that put a lot of pressure on vendors to conform to whatever our processes were, they had to get their batteries in tow. Are thing to be a part of the ecosystem. And there was a huge demand to be a part of our ecosystem. The partners would just sort of, you know, swallow hard and do what they needed to d'oh. But it really wasn't optimized Tol partners, right? So they might have different development processes. They might have different release cycles. They might have different testing on the back end. That would be, you know, more difficult to hook together collections, breaks a lot of that out and gives our partners a lot of freedom to innovate in their own time. Uh, >>release on their own cycle, the down cycle. We just released our new version of software, but you can't actually get the new Ansel modules that are updated for it until answerable releases is not always the thing that you know makes their product immediately useful. You know, you're a vendor, you really something new. You want people to start using it right away, not wait until, you know answerable comes around so >>and that new artifact also creates more network effects with the, you know, galaxy and automation hub. And you know, the new deployment options that we're gonna have available for that stuff. So it's, I think it's just leveling up, right? It's taking the same approach that's gotten us this foreign, just taking out to, uh, to another level. >>I certainly wouldn't consider it to be like that. Partners air separate part of our They're still definitely part of the community. It's just they have slightly different problems. And, you know, there were folks from all sorts of different companies who are partners in the contributor summit. Yesterday >>there were >>actually, you know, participating and you know, folks swapping stories and listening to each other and again being part of that feedback. >>Maybe just a little bit broader. You know, the other communities out there, I think of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, the Open Infrastructure Foundation. You're wearing your soul pin. I talk a little bit of our handsome How rentable plays across these other communities, which are, you know, very much mixture of the vendors and the end users. >>Well, I mean and will certainly had Sorry. Are you asking about how Ansel is relating to those other communities? Okay, Yeah, because I'm all about that. I mean, we certainly had a long standing sort of, ah fan base over in the open stacks slash open infrastructure foundation land. Most of the deployment tools for all of you know, all the different ways. So many ways to deploy open stack. A lot of them wound up settling on Ansel towards the end of time. You know, that community sort of matured, and, you know, there's a lot of periods of experimentation and, you know, that's one of the things is something's live. Something's didn't but the core parts of what you actually need to make a cloud or, you know, basically still there. Um And then we also have a ton of modules, actually unanswerable, that, you know, help people to operationalize all their open stack cloud stuff. Just like we have modules for AWS and Google Cloud and Azure and whoever else I'm leaving out this week as far as the C N. C f stuff goes, I mean again, we've seen a lot of you know how to get this thing up and running. Turns out Cooper Daddy's is not particularly easy to get up and running. It's even more complicated than a cloud sometimes, because it also assumes you've got a cloud of some sort already. And I like working on our thing. It's I can actually use it. It's pretty cool. Um, cube spray on. Then A lot of the other projects also have, you know, things that are related to Ansel. Now there's the answer. Will operator stuff? I don't know if you want to touch on that, but >>yeah, uh, we're working on. We know one of the big questions is ah, how do answerable, uh, and open shift slash kubernetes work together frequently and in sort of kubernetes land Open shift land. You want to keep his much as you can on the cluster. Lots of operations on the cluster. >>Sometimes you got >>to talk to things outside of the cluster, right? You got to set up some networking stuff, or you gotta go talk to an S three bucket. There's always something some storage thing. As much as you try to get things in a container land, there's all there's always legacy stuff. There's always new stuff, maybe edge stuff that might not all be part of your cluster. And so one of the things we're working on is making it easier to use answerable as part of your operator structure, to go and manage some of those things, using the operator framework that's already built into kubernetes and >>again, more complexity out there. >>Well, and and the thing is, we're great glue. Answerable is such great glue, and it's accessible to so many people and as the moon. As we move away from monolithic code bases to micro service's and vastly spread out code basis, it's not like the complexity goes away. The complexity simply moves to the relationship between the components and answerable. It's excellent glue for helping to manage those relationships between. >>Who doesn't like a glue layer >>everyone, if it's good and easy to understand, even better, >>the glue layers key guys, Thanks for coming on. Sharing your insights. Thank you so much for a quick minute to give a quick plug for the community. What's up? Stats updates. Quick projects Give a quick plug for what's going on the community real quick. >>You go first. >>We're big. We're 67 >>snow. It was number six. Number seven was kubernetes >>right. Number six out of 96 million projects on Get Hub. So lots of contributors. Lots of energy. >>Anytime. I tried to cite a stat, I find that I have to actually go and look it up. And I was about to sight again. >>So active, high, high numbers of people activity. What's that mean? You're running the plumbing, so obviously it's it's cloud on premise. Other updates. Projects of the contributor day. What's next, what's on the schedule. >>We're looking to put together our next contributor summit. We're hoping in Europe sometime in the spring, so we've got to get that on the plate. I don't know if we've announced the next answer will fast yet >>I know that happens tomorrow. So don't Don't really don't >>ruin that for everybody. >>Gradual ages on the great community. You guys done great. Work out in the open sores opened business. Open everything these days. Can't bet against open. >>But again, >>I wouldn't bet against open. >>We're here. Cube were open. Was sharing all the data here in Atlanta with the interviews. I'm John for his stupid men. Stayed with us for more after this short break.

>> from Bahrain. It's the Q recovery AWS Public sector Bahrain brought to you by Amazon Web service is >> welcome to the cues conversation here. You're in Bahrain for Amazon Webster, is this summit our second summit? Um, here. Big news. Amazon Web services announced the availability of the region in the Middle East. I'm here with the chief of Public Sector Theresa Cross and vice President of Worldwide Public Sector. This is a huge milestone. This event one just in terms of the event. The interest across multiple countries in the region. Yes. And you have a new region with multiple availability zones? Yes, up and running. Congratulations. >> Hey, we launched the confetti today and yes, we're open for business and we do. It's a hyper scale region with three available the zones and lots of activity already here in the delays. But it really is a substantial kind of milestone because we started this sometime back in the Middle East, was one of the top regions around the world requested by our partners and customers. And now here we are. >> We've been talking with you for many, many years and I love interviewing you, but this one to me feels like it's not the weight off your shoulders. It's you're at the start line of another marathon. You've achieved so much with this because what's the first thing about Bart Rainey? We've reported on this on Select Angle and our other sites is that you get a lot of work here, is not just turning on a region. There's a lot of government commitment cloud first, full modernization, fintech banking systems, a full re platforming of a government and society and Amazons powering a lot of it and causing a lot of economic growth. So this is a big deal. >> It really is a big deal because, like you said, it really is about digital transformation here. And when I met the crown Prince in 2014 we had this conversation about really creating the economy here in a different way because Bob terrain itself, it's not oil rich country, but a smaller country with lots and lots of tourism. But in this region, while we haven't based here in Bahrain, this is truly a Middle East GCC region and but But part of that, the reason to start it here in my reign was that they really did take a lead in government transformation. As you heard them say, they're going all in shake Some on today talked about government is moving really fast, and they actually did the hard work to think about their telecommunications industry, their government regulations. They started with cloud first, and then they created all the write regulations to make this happen. So it is kind of phenomenal how quickly, in some ways, you know, feel slower than we'd like, But it's really moving quite fast. >> It's pretty fast. You should get a lot of kudos for that. I think you will. But I think to me what's interesting. The news here is that there is a balance between regulation and innovation going on, and regulation can be hampering innovation, some cases and not enough regulation. You have a Facebook situation or >> right so >> it's a balance. These guys have done it right. But to me, the tell sign is the fintech community, >> because that's where >> the money is. The central bank and then the ABC bank are all talking about a pea eye's all in with Amazon that's gonna create an ecosystem for innovation. Startups, et cetera. >> It totally isn't you heard Thean Vivid Jewel from ABC Bank today talk about their platform. What they're doing with clouds and the reason they chose a DBS was because we had this region of Bob Terrain, and they wanted to move quickly in. The regulations now have been updated in a way that actually allows them to do their banking applications in the lab. There's also a startup accelerator here, Fintech May, and they're doing a tenant work with new types of financial applications. So it's so exciting to see this kind of happening than the lace for I think a lot of people thought it would be much slower. We have a ways to go. It's still day one, for sure, but all the building blocks are getting there in the right place to really make this happen. >> You know, 80. Jessie's quoting the announcement you guys had just a couple weeks ago. Laura Angel And in July, the clouds of chance unlocked digital transmission. Middle East, says Andy chassis. Obviously unlocking is a key word because now you have customers from startups to large enterprises and ecosystem of a P M party. So the Ap N Group is here. Yes, So you have global I SUV's here and knew I s V's. You got the government and the education and to me, the news of the show. To me at least maybe it's not the big news, but is that you guys? They're offering a computer like a cloud computing degree. Yeah, for the first time about that news, >> you are right in terms of kind of every sector's picking at, but like in most places around the world, this is not unique. We need skills, and we've got to make sure that we're teaching the skills, working backwards from what the employer needs, like a TVs. So what? We've been here. We announced today we're launching our first cloud computing degree at the university of our terrain, and they're kind of thing. That's really unusual, John. They're going to do a phase one where they offer a cloud certification starting in early 2021 every program at the University of Bahrain, Whether you're in finance or banking, or business or health care or law, you can do this cloud computing certification, which gets you going and helps you understand how you last cloud in your business and then in the fall will be announcing the four year starting, the four year cloud computing degree, and that is in conjunction with our A DBS Educate program. And it will be all the right cloud skills that are needed to be successful. >> Talk about the demographics in this country because one of the things that's coming up is when I talk people in the doorways and it's a chance to talk to some local folks last night that that all in an Amazon, the theme is this. This younger generation yes, is here, and they have different expectations. They all want to work hard. They don't want to just sit back on their laurels and rest on their on their location. Here. They want to build companies they want to change. This is a key factor in the bottle rain modernization. Is that >> Yeah, generation well, all across the Middle East. The thing that's unique about the mill aces, the very young population you had millions of gamers across the Middle East as an example that comic con and Saudi like two years ago on that was one of the most popular things was fortnight. As soon as the region got at all the different gaming started taking place. But we want to create a culture of builders here, and the way you do that is what you said, John putting it into their hands, allowing these young people have the tools create a startup became entrepreneur, but they need to have access to these tools. And sometimes capital is often not that easy to get. So they want to make sure that the capital that they're given or that they have, whether it's bootstrap capital or venture capital, fending or whatever friends and family, they want to make sure that they can use that capital to the greatest advantage to build that company out. And I truly believe that this is gonna help them having an eight of us cloud region. I mean, you saw. Today we have 36 companies that launched their offering in the region on the day we actually announced so that they had specific offerings for the Middle East, which pretty exciting. I mean, that's a lot on day one. >> I mean, it's still day. One of you guys always say, but literally day one they were launching Yeah, I wanted to comment if you could just share some insights. I know, Um, your passion for, you know, entrepreneurship. You guys are also some skill development investing a lot of women in tech power panel this morning, there's major change going on. You guys were providing a lot of incentives, a lot of mentoring, this internships in conjunction with by rain. There's a lot of good things. Share some of the new things that you're working on, maybe deals you're talking about doing or >> way announced Thio kind of new things today. One is we have our we partake program, which I'm, of course, super passionate about. And that is about preventing tech learning and skills to women and underserved in representative communities. So we announced three other training programs here across the Middle East time. So those were put up today and you'll continue to see its role more and more of those out. And the other thing we did yesterday we announced a internship program with the minister of Youth here in Bahrain. That was shaped Nassir, who's a very famous He's that King san, and he's a very famous sportsmen. He does. He just won the Ironman Ironman and 2016. It was the world champion. He does endurance horse racing, so he's a He's a someone that the youth look at to here, and so he's doing all these programs. So we announced a partnership that were the first group doing the internship with this youth program, and so we're very excited. We're going to start that small and scale it, but we want to get these young people quickly and kind of get them excited. But here, what they focus on it is underrepresented communities. So it fits so nicely in with what we're doing with our attack. So you have both Oliver training our over 400 online courses that we offer with a dubious education academy. Now degree now our internship program and we protect. So, John, we're just getting going. I'm not saying that this is all will offer, but these are the things that were getting going with, and we need to make sure we also Taylor things like this Ministry of Youth program and sports at to the region in terms of water, their local needs, and we'll make sure that we're always looking >> at the entrance. Just just get him some great experience. Yes, so they can earn and feel good about themselves. This is kind of a key, exactly thing not just getting an internship, >> and it's, I think, locally it will be about teaching them to do that, disagree and commit really have that backbone to build that company and ask all those hard questions. So we're really going to try to indoctrinate them into the Amazon a TVs culture so we can help them be entrepreneurs like we are every day. >> And you got the data center, you got the city, the centers, you get the regions up and running, and architect, it perfectly suits up with people in it. Are you going to staff that with local talent, or is it gonna be Amazonian is coming in? What's the makeup of staff gonna be? What's the >> story? I mean, our goal is to hire as many local talent. We everywhere we go around the world. We want to get local talent because you can't yet if we did, First of all, we don't have enough people in our headquarters to bring folks in here, so we really have to train and educate. But locally, we have an office open here by rain. We haven't Office Open and Dubai and one down Saudi, and that is local talent. I mean, we are trying to use as much local talent and will continue to create that. And that's kind of the point. Jonas talking about the degree working backwards from what the employer needs. We want to give input because we think we also are getting good. Yeah, so we need to get the top. But we need those other individual employers that keep telling us we need more cloud skills to give that input. But, yeah, >> we're going to get a degree, migrate them into the job >> market, right quick like >> and educates. Been doing great. I learned a lot. This is a whole opportunity for people who want to make money, get a job. Amazon Web service is >> It's a place you could either work for us. Work for someone now, like even the government has a >> virus. Make a person tomorrow >> there. Yet >> we had one, >> but the point of being a builder, what we're seeing more and more John are these companies and government entities are building their talent internally. They're not outsourcing everything anymore, and the whole culture at being a builder, not just outsourcing all that. And that's what eight of us really helps all these entities. D'oh is moved quicker by having kind of some in house talent and not outsourcing everything to slow you down. That >> really thank ABC pointed that out beautifully in his point was, Hey, I'm gonna you know, I'm all in on AWS. We have domain expertise, We have data. That's our intellectual property. We're going to use that and be competitive and partner. And >> yes, and the new models it is. And that I p stays in house with that company or entity or government organization. It was so fun for me today to hear Shake some on from Maggie. A talk about the government is moving fast, and I think that's an example of a really are they figured out clown helps him just go a lot faster and save many security. >> I'm glad you brought that up. I know you got a short time here, but I want one last point in. We've been talking a lot about modernization of government, your success with C i a United States jet I contract still under consideration. All this going on you're experiencing by ranges and, um, unbelievable, fast moving government. They kind of get it. United States some places gets it. This is really about focusing in on the workloads. What have you learned? As you've been engaging these modernization efforts with governments summer slow, some of political ramifications behind. No one wants to lose. Old guard will hold onto the rails. We've seen that in the news, but this is coming fast. What are you learning? What do you >> take away its leadership? I mean, at the end of the day, all these things were driven by a very strong leaders. And even you can see everybody today on stage. It is leaders that make a decision that they wanted a faster and they want to modernize but have the capabilities. No matter if you're the U. S. Department of Defense. Ah, yes. Health and human resource is National Health Service in the UK or RG a hearing by rain, the government's or enterprises that we work with around the world. The key is leadership. And if there's that leader that is really strong and says we're moving, did you actually see organizations move a lot faster if you see people kind of waffle anger. I'm not sure, you know, that's when you can see the slowness. Wow, What I will tell you is from the early days of starting this business in 2010 the individuals that always move fastest for the mission owners because the mission owners of whatever the business West at a governmental level or enterprise, they said, we need to keep our mission going. So that's the reason they wanted to walk through this transformation. >> And now, I think, with developers coming in and started to see these employees for these companies saying, No, no, what's the reason why we can't go fast? That's right now a groundswell of pressure you see in both government, public sector and commercial. >> And you saw Mark Allen today on stage talking about security. It iss literally day. Zero thing for us, and the reason a lot of our customers are meeting faster now is because of security. Cloud is more secure in their meeting to the cloud for security because they feel like they could both optimize, move faster for workloads, and now they have security. Better, faster, cheaper security, bad design, >> Theresa always pleasure thinking coming. Spending time. Thank >> you for coming to Barbara Ryan. Thank you. So >> we're going global with you guys is seeing the global expansion 20 to 22nd region. 69 availabilities owns nine more coming. More regions. More easy. You guys doing great. Congratulations. >> Thank you. >> Secure. We are here in Bahrain. Form or coverage. Global coverage of the cube with Reese Carlson, vice president of worldwide public sector. She's running the show doing a great job. We're here more after the stroke break. Stay with us.

>> live from Las Vegas. It's the queue covering del Technologies. World twenty nineteen. Brought to you by Del Technologies and its ecosystem partners. >> Welcome on board technologies World. Lisa Martin with Rebecca Night for the first time hosting together. And I have to say this is probably one of my favorite times of del technologies world because we have dogs on the Cube joining us for Michael Angel Pause. We've got Alicia Halloran. She's back. She's a Q. Pietro's here last year. Your Fallen here, Here's OD and Gracie and holding Creasy is Denise Michael's Cox Global Experiential marketing from Del Technologies. Tony's Thank you for joining us as well. Certainly a lot of female power. You right out. He's just letting a male hanging out. Alicia, it's so good to have you back Way have enjoyed being having our set Next. Tio Michael's age. Applause again. This year. It's so great to hear barking. Yeah, when you're talking about, I think I'm at home so true. Talk to us a little bit about Michael's Angel. Pause your experience as a volunteer out. Yeah, D'Oh well, first of all, Michael Angel paused >> is was a static to nonprofit established in Las Vegas, and they have three main programs. They have a community dog program, which really strengthens the bonds between people and their animals. And they have a therapy dog program, which is what these lovelies air part of, and we just love to bring joy and delight everywhere we go. And then they also have a service dog training, which allows people with autism or with their mobility issues or any kind of medical alert. So that's the main process of what Michael Angel paused does way air volunteers with them. We have loved being volunteers with them. Uh, OD is blind, and we managed to get him through the therapy dog program, and we love to come to conferences and just really help people feel better. And Gracie, of course, is just a little beauties. So, >> yeah, so Denise, tell me a little bit about why Dell has partnered with this with this organ, which is a great organization. And why might people need to feel better when they're out of touch? Honor. That's been may be related to this morning's kid note address with the anxiety, sometimes technology way. You do like >> to say we think of everything for Del Technologies world. So what is one more thing? How to surprise and delight our costumers? Air attendees here. And also it's really important for us as Del Technologies to give back to the community. And so it's a great opportunity to give back to great organization like Michael's Angels. Pause and surprise and delight our guests with the with several dogs to pet. Because you know, when you go to a conference when you travel, you miss your pets a lot. A lot of people miss their dogs, and so we're here for them to get a dog fix or maybe just come in for a few minutes. Distress. Er, jetsam dogs come out happy. Everyone who walks in, walks in, smiling and walks out, smiling bigger. So it's a great place. Tio work here, too. >> We were hearing last year that Michael Age, a PAS exhibit exhibit, was one of the most popular places for Get fourteen fifteen thousand people to congregate. Ru. Do you experience the same thing this year? Yes, >> definitely, definitely didn't really. It's been really busy, like these little ebbs and flows like you just catch a breath and then twenty five people are there and they're all like, Oh, it's so great. It's so great to see people relax and be able to kind of sit down and take a breath, which I think is really hard in a conference like this. >> It is, and it's also STD. So you mentioned it's nice to recognize that they're all people. They all have families, a lot of them, whether their pet owners or not. It's just a nice way to just sort of get back to reality, maybe come down from the cloud right on and actually have a little bit of something that just brings a just a smile to your heart. Yes, >> bring some joy even without technology. >> So we know the humans love it. But here, the Toups, how are they doing? Because, as you said, they usually you're going toe spills There. You told each home write and write and how are they handling? They >> handle it. Amazingly, they love to come. You know, the energy is very, very different, so they can be a little bit more rambunctious. They could move a little bit more because they're not working with somebody that is in hospice or you know has an illness. So it's people who are exactly feeling sad that they don't have their animals with them, and they get to get cuddled and squeezed and they love it. So it's a wonderful experience for them. They love to do it. She kind of looks a little sleepy, but that's kind of her way of being like >> he's himself. You're >> yeah, Just loves it. What is some of the reactions elation that you've experience out in the field like, for example, in the hospital or a hospice organization or in firemen's Yeah, that you see patients. Oh, yeah, they light owns, >> they light up. I mean, when you go to a hospital, people are in a hospital, and so everything is very regimented, their way woken up in the middle of the night to do whatever needs to be done. And people are kind of like talking about them, but not actually to them, and that animals don't differentiate there just like we want to sit with you, and that's what we're going to do. We're just going to sit with you, so it gives them a moment to just relax again and not have to think about. When's the next blood draw? When's the next thing that's gonna happen? So it's a really wonderful, relaxing experience for them. It's it's it's and and the joy that it brings. And I think there's a lot of healing in that that when your feel good, you feel good, you have the ability to heal better. And so I think therapy dogs are so important in a in a hospital environment, and >> this is a two step sort of certification program. They become a therapy dog first, and then they would become a service dog. Or can they go into a hospital as a therapy dog to >> go in as a therapy dog? Yes, so that's That's the work that these guys do service dogs or more about if you have something on illness, or that you have some mobility issues that you need balance or you need if you have PTSD that you need to have a dog with you all the time just to kind of keep you keep you together, which I think everybody understands that it feels good to have an animal with you. So these guys are therapy dogs, which is not the service dogs. >> Got it? Yeah. >> Denise, this is your baby. This thing, The show. Congratulations. It was a great show. Fifteen thousand attendees. Eso money partners. So money. A lot of great energy and a great vibe. Can you just talk a little bit? About what? This year's event This this dull world technologies has meant to you. This has >> been a great event every year. It's a great about. But this year, Thea Energy is even higher, so positive it's always really positive. Be here anyway. And so many more people this year, too. It's just a constant Gogo energy all the time. And it's It's wonderful. It's so fun. I love being part of the organization and proud to be able to say that I helped and some a little bit put this together. And so I'm just happy to be here and proud to be a part of Del Technologies to >> Denise before we let you go and get some well deserved. This's also a charity and philanthropy that's close, and Michael Dell's Hart Can you explain a little bit about that? And how he helps veterans in this way? >> Well, how Michael helps veterans or Michael's Angels pause veterans because they both do. >> Michael, let's talk about Michael Dell for since this is kind of his thing, yeah, well, it's, >> um, like for Del itself, a Michael Dell to is very important to him. To give back to the community is is important to us all. And that's a big part of what we dio and this opportunity to that now contribute event. Veterans like these guys go to that veteran homes and help with, um now Del itself. And Michael Dell also contributes Teo many veteran organizations helping veterans with PTSD. And we saw that last year at Del World talking a lot about continue working with veterans, working through PTSD with the art art for veterans. And so there's many organizations like that we work with our Del Technologies and Michael Dell works with, and that give that >> exit was we heard that maybe there was some support financial support for dogs that go through service training to become service dogs for veterans, which is a pretty extensive process and quite expensive. So nice to hear how much it really doesn't mean to the heart of Adele Denise Alicia. Thank you. Someone like you, but I mean, of course, Odeon, Gracie. Humans think they are. Thanks, guys. Really brought a smile to my heart and I got to go home to my dog with first. She's yet, right? Yeah. Like for Rebecca Knight. I'm Lisa Martin. You're watching The Cube live from Dale Technologies World twenty nineteen. Thanks so much for watching.

>> Live from San Francisco. It's the cube covering IBM thing twenty nineteen brought to you by IBM. >> Welcome back to the Cube here in Mosconi North at IBM. Think twenty nineteen. I'm stupid. And my CLO host for the segment is Day Volante. We have four days, a water wall. Coverage of this big show happened. Welcome back to the program. Jason McGee, who is an IBM fellow, and he's the vice president. CTO of Cloud Platform at IBM. Jason, Great to see a >> guy to have fair. >> All right, So, Jason, we spoke with you at Que Con Way. We're saying it's a slightly different audience. A little bit bigger here. Not as many hoodies and jeans and T shirts a little bit more of a business crowd were still talking about clouds. So let's talk about your kind of your role here at the show. What's gonna keep you busy all week? >> S o? I mean, obviously, cloud is a huge part of what's going on. I think talking a lot about both public and private, about hybrid and some are multi called management capabilities. You know, my role as the leader called Platform. I'm talking a lot about platform as a service and communities and containers in the studio and kind of all the new technologies that people are using to help build the next generation of applications. >> All right, so we've had a few interviews today already talk about some of the multi cloud pieces. We had Sandberg on alien talk about eternity. So first you're gonna help correct the things that he got >> anything. Gang >> and service measures have been a really hot conversation the last year or so SDO envoy and the like t talk to us about where IBM fits into this discussion of service meshes. >> Yeah, so you know, I think >> we've been on this kind of journey as an industry of last year's to build anew at platform on DH service meshes kind of fit the part of the problem, which is, How does everything talk to each other and how to actually control that and get visibility into it? You know, IBM has had a founding role in that project. My team at IBM and Google got together with the guys, a lift to create it. Theo, what I'm most excited about, I think a twenty nineteen is that's that technology is really transitioning into something people are using in production and their applications. It's becoming more of kind of the default stack that people are using Really helping them do security invisibility control over their applications? >> Yeah. What? One thing that I heard just from the community and wonder if you could tell me is, you know, is dio itself. The governance model is still not fully into CNC s. Yeah, I heard a little bit, hasn't he? On some envoy? Of course. Out there in the like. So, you know, where are we? What needs to happen to kind of >> move forward? Yeah, you're right. So we're not there quite yet. We're pushing hard to make that happen. Certainly. From an IBM perspective, we absolutely believe that CNC F is the right home for Osteo as you mentioned some of the pieces like Envoy or they're ready. You know, C N c f has done such a tremendous job over the last eighteen months. Really rallying all the core technologies that make up this new coordinate A platform that we're building on costo is no out there's one. Oh, it's been sure people are using it. You know, that last step needs to happen to get into the community. >> So I have to ask you So things move so fast in this world, you go back to the open stack days, and that was going to change the world. And then Dakar Containers. And then Cooper netease, usto I can't help but thinking, Okay, This isn't the end of the line. What's Jason? What's the underlying trend here that's going on in the coding world? Yeah, sure. I'll put it in, maybe in >> my own lens. Given my history, you nominal WebSphere app server guy. You know that in the first half of my career I built that Andi, >> I think the fundamental >> problem solving is actually exactly the same. It's like, how do you build a platform that's app developers focus on building their APS, and I'll focus on all the plumbing and the infrastructure for running those aps. We did that twenty years ago in Java with APP servers, and we're doing it now with cloud, and we're doing it on top of containers. Things like usto like, while they're important in their own right there really actually Mohr important because they're just part of this bigger puzzle that we're putting together. And I think for the average suffer developer, they shouldn't really have to care about. What part of this deal will part is is Cuban eighties. And which part is K native like all that needs to come together into a single platform that they can use to build their APS and run them security. Right? And and I think it's Seo is just recognizing that next piece. You know, I think we've all agreed on containers and communities. We all talk about it all the time, and it's tio Is that next layer I catalyze securing >> control things. Yeah. So you teed it up nicely because we want out. Developers just be able to worry about the application. So you mentioned K native. The whole server list trend is one where you know the idea, of course, is I shouldn't have to worry about the infrastructure layer it just be taking care of me. We've talked about it for pass for a number of years. There are various ways to do it. So at, uh, Cube Colin and we've been looking for about the last year. Now you know, Where does you No, Crew, Burnett, ease and surveillance. How do they fit together? And K Native looks to be a pieces. Toe bridge. Some of those barrels? Absolutely. Where are we and what? What? What's? What's IBM doing there? >> So I think >> you rightly say that they should fit together like they're all part of this continuum of how developers build APS. And, you know, if you look at server, less applications, you know, there's the servos to mention I'm personally not a big service terminology fan. I think they're Maura about event oriented computing. And how do you have a good model for event oriented systems today? With Cuba Netease, anise Teo, I think we've built the base platform, I think, with a native what we're doing is bringing server lists and also just kind of twelve factor applications into the fold in a more formal way on when we get all those pieces together and we integrate them. I think then developers really unleashed to just build their application, whatever way it makes the most sense for what they're doing. And some things like server lists of Anna Marie. And it's going to be easier. And some problems. Straight containers will be an easier way to do >> it. You know, you say you don't like survivalists you like event better a function. So so explain that to the audience, like Why? Why should we care? And why is that different? How is that different? Yeah, I think, for >> a couple things. First off, the idea of server lists applies much more broadly than just what we think of this kind of function based program. You know, like any system that does a good job of managing and masking the infrastructure below me, you could consider a surveillance system, right? So when you just say server Lis, it's kind of like secondhand for functions. I'd rather we just kind of say, functions because that's actually a different programming model where you kind of trigger off of events and you write a functional piece of code and the system takes care of those details. You could argue that caught foundries, a server list system in the sense that you just as a developer anyway, you just see if push your code and it just runs and its scales and it does whatever you need, right? So part of my mission, you know, part of what I look at a lot is how do we bring all these things together in a way that is easy for the developer to stay focused. It steals a great example. You know, one of things were announcing this week is managed osteo support as part of our community service. What does that really mean? It means the developer can use the capability Viste without worrying about How do I install in Rennes D'oh, which they don't really care about? They just really care about how they get value out of its capability. >> Yeah, that's one of the things that having watched all these crew Benetti system and the like is how many companies really need to understand how to build this and run that because can I just get it delivered to me as a service? And therefore that you know that whole you know what I want out of cloud? I want a simple model to be able to consume, Not necessarily. I want to build the stuff that's important to me and not the rest of you. >> And I think if you look at the industry, there's really, I think, kind of two dominant consumption models that have actually emerged for people really using these things, there's public cloud platforms you're delivering things as a service. And then there's kind of platform software stacks like open shifts like I've been called private, which take all of these pieces and bring them together. And I think for most developers, they'll consume in one of those two ways because they don't really want the task of how to assemble all these pieces together. >> Tio, go back to the service piece like what? One distinction I heard made is okay. If I can really scale it down to zero, if I don't need to make it, then that can be serve a list. But there there's alternatives coming out there like what K native has. If I want to run this in my own environment, it's not turbulence because I do need toe. It might be functions, but I need to manage this environment. The infrastructure is my responsibility, not some >> service provider, right? And I think if you'll get server list to me, I was personally, I always think of it in kind of two scenarios. There's like surveillance as ah program remodel in a technology and surveillance as a business model, right? As a consumption model for payment. I think this programming model parts applicable in lots of cases, including private clouds. And in Custer, the business model parties, I think, frankly, unique to public. I'll thing that says I can just pay for the milliseconds of CPU, Compute that amusing and nothing more. >> That's a good thing for consumers. For >> the consumer, it's actually good thing for cloud providers because it gives us a way Tio reuse our infrastructure and creative ways, Right? But I think first and foremost, we have to get Mohr adoption of it as a programming model that developers used to build their applications and do it combined with other things. Because I think most realistic APs aren't gonna all be cirrhosis or all B Cooper nineties. They're going to be something. >> Yeah, right. It's like everything else. It's it's you know, what percent into the applications? Will this takeover? We had this discussion with virtual ization. We've been having this discussion with cloud and certain list, of course, is is pretty early in that environment. K native did I hear is there's some announcement this week that IBM >> so Soak a native, obviously is a project is kind of much earlier in its maturation and something like Castillo is. But we're making that available as part of our Republican private cards as well, Really? So people can get started with the ideas of K native. They can have an easy way to get that environment stood up, and they can start building those applications on DSO. That's now something that, you know, we're kind of bringing out as we work in the community to actually mature the project itself. >> Excellent. One of the things everybody's, of course, keeping an eye on. I saw Arvin Christian talking about the clouds. Tragedy is how red hat fits into all this. So we know you can't talk about kind of post acquisition. But red hats involved in K native. They're involved in a lot of the >> services and developers you gotta be exciting for. Yeah, >> it is. And obviously, like, Look, we've been partners for many years, you know, in on the open source side of things. We've worked closely with Red Hat for a long time. We actually view the world in very similar ways. You know, like you said, we're working on a native together. We've been working on Open West Feather. We obviously work in Cuban eighties together. So personally, I'm pretty excited about them coming in IBM. Assuming that acquisition goes through, they, you know, they fit into our strategy really well. And I think we'll just kind of enhance what we've all been working to build. >> All right, Jason, what else? What's looking? You talk about the maturity of these solutions, give us, um, guide post for the people watching the industry that we should be looking at as twenty nineteen rolls through >> us. So I think there's a >> couple things that, you know, I think this unified application platform notion that we've been kind of touching on here, I think will really come into its own in twenty nineteen. And and I would really love to see people kind of embraced that idea that we don't need. Three container stacks were not tryingto build these seven things. You know, one of things I'm kind of excited about with a native is by bringing server lists and twelve factor into Cuba Netease. It allows each of those frameworks to be kind of the best they can be at their part of the problem space and not solved unrelated problems. You know, I looked at the kind of server less versus coop camps, you know, the purest. And both think all problems will be solved in their camp. Which means they tried to solve all problems. Like, how do I do state full systems and server, Wes. And how do I bring in storage and solve all these things that maybe containers is better at. So I think this unification that I see happening will allow us to have really high efficiency, twelve factor and surveillance in the context of Koob and will change how people are able to use these platforms. I think twenty nineteen is really about adoption of all of this stuff. You know, we still are really early, frankly, in the kind of container adoption landscape, and I think most people in the broader industry or just kind of getting their feet wet they all agree that they're all trying, but they're just starting, and he knows a lot of interesting work. >> Jason, are there any anything that air holding people back? Anything that you You know what? What do you see is some of the things that might help accelerate some of this adoption? >> Yeah, I think one of the things that's >> holding people back is just the diversity of options that exists in the cognitive space means you guys have all probably rising like the C in C F landscape chart. I've never seen so many icons on something in my life. That's really frightening for the average enterprise. To look at a picture like that and go like which of these things are going to be useful, which are going to exist in a year like how Doe, I bet, make that sort >> of those things. So I think that's actually >> help people back a lot. I think that kind of agreement around communities that happened in the last eighteen months or so was really liberating, for a lot of people have helped them kind of move forward there. I think if we can all agree on a few more pieces around this deal, reckon native like it'll really help kind of unlock people and get them trying actually doing it. And I don't think it's anything more than picking a project and starting. I think a lot of enterprises over analyze everything, and they just need to pick something and go and learn. And they'll >> so pick some narrow use case pick, pick an app, pick >> a use case and go do it right and you'll learn and you'll figure out how it works for you. And then you do the second and the fourth in the tenth. And before you know it, you're on your way. That's what we did at IBM ourselves, and you know, now we're running our whole entire public out on top of communities. >> Jason and any any warnings from that kind of experience that you trade to users? A CZ. They looked forward. >> Yeah, we had a >> lot of learnings from music. One is we could run a heck of a lot more diverse work less than we thought when we started. You know, we're running databases where any data warehouses, running machine learning. We're running Blockchain. We're running every kind of application you didn't think could ever work on containers on containers s so one of the lessons Wass. It's much more flexible than you think. It isthe right. The >> other thing is you >> really have to rethink everything. Like the way you do compliance, the way you do security, the way you monitor the system. Like all of those things I need to change because the underlying kind of container system enables you to solve them in such a powerful way. And so if you go into it just thinking, Oh, I'm just going to change this one part of how I do aps and the rest will change. I think you'll find in a year that you're changing the whole operating model around your environment. >> Well, Jason, rethink everything we're here at IBM. Thing up twenty nineteen. Thinks is always for catching up with Thanks for everything going on for David. Want a, um, stew? Minutemen got three more days of live coverage here for Mosconi North. If you hear, stop by and say hi or reach out to us on the interwebs. Thanks so much for watching the cues.
