>> It's a pleasure to be here with you and to tell you about something I've been dreaming about and working for for many years and now is coming to the surface quite powerfully and quite usefully in many areas. I apologize, sometimes this flickers for some reason but I hope it doesn't disturb the story. I'd like to give you a little touch of history since I was there at the beginning of this journey and give you a brief introduction to what we mean for Fog Computing. And then go quickly to three powerful application spaces for this technology, together with industrial internet and one is industrial automation. That's the focus of our activity as Nebbiolo Technologies. The other one is one of my favorite ones and we'll get there is the automotive that caught fire here in Silicone Valley in the last years, the autonomous car, the connected vehicle and so on. And this is related to also to intelligent transportation and Smart Cities. And then a little touch on what Fog Computing means for Smart grid energy but many, many other sectors will find the same usefulness, the same architecture dimensions of Fog Computing applicable. So this is the story that comes back hopefully, here, the day in 2010 when Fog Computing, the word started here, oh God, is this jumping around? I think it's the connector, this is the age of the connector, this is the age of the Dongles. This is not an Apple Dongle and so we are having troubles. And this is not yet one of the last machines that are out. Let's hope for, I never had this problem, okay. Alright, this date 2010 at the Aquarium Research Center in Monterey where I gave a talk about robots going down deep in the bottom of those big valleys under the ocean and when I finished, the lady, Ginny in the middle approached me and told me, look, why don't you call what you're talking about fog computing? Because it's cloud computing brought too close to the ground and I protested for about 15 minutes. And on the drive home, I thought that's really a good name for what we are doing, what we have been doing in the last years and I started trying it out and using it and more and more I found good response and so seven years later, I'm still here talking about the same thing. What's happening is Fog, the edge of the metric zone was very important but it was always very important in IT, is still very important in IT in mobile, in content distribution but when IOT came to the surface, it became even more relevant to understand the need of resources, virtualized real time capable, secure, trusted with storage computing and networking coming together at the edge. At the edge of the IT network, now they are calling this mobile edge, they realize we are realizing that mobile can benefit from local resources at the edge, powerful real time capable resources but also and more importantly for what we are doing in this space of operational technologies, this is the space, the other and the other side of the boundary between information technologies and operational technologies and here is where we are living with Fog Computing these days so, apologize, I apologize for this behavior that is, maybe I have another Dongle, Apple Dongle. Maybe I could look at that, maybe Morris can help me out here, anyway, so what is Fog Computing? Fog Computing is really the platform that brings modern, Cloud inspired Computing storage here is important here for our friends at Western Digital and networking functions closer to the data producing sources. In our case, machines, things, but not just bringing Cloud down, it's also bringing functions up from the machine world, the real time, the safety functions, the trusting and reliability functions required in that area and this is a unified solution at the edge that really brings together communication, device management, data harvesting, analysis and control. So this is kind of new except for our friends in Wall Street. The real time part was not as sensitive. Now we are realizing how important it is and how important the position of resources is in the future of solutions in this space and so it's not boxes. It's a distributed layer of resources, well managed at the edge of the network and really has a lot of potential across multiple industries. Here we see the progress also in the awareness of this topic with the open fog control room that is now a very active and even the Vcs. Peter Levine here is talking about the importance of the edge. What is really happening is the the convergence. I think we should probably stop and use a different Dongle. Is this the one, no, no, this is not the right Dongle. The world of Dongles, sorry. Oh boy. Oh you have the computer with the, okay, is the right Dongle with the right computer, okay. Here we are, okay. Alright, we're getting back there. This is the new Apple. Okay, we are here, this looks better, thank you. Alright, so this is to be understood. This is the convergence of IT functionality, the modern IT functionality with the OT requirements and this is fundamentally the powerful angle that Fog Computing brings to IOT and machine world so all the nice things that happened in the Cloud come down but meet the requirements of resources, the needs and the timing of the Edge. And so when you look at what is brought into particularly the world of operations, you see these kind of functions that are not usually there. In fact, when you meet this operational world, you find microprocessors, you find Windows machines, industrial Pcs and so on, not so much Linux, not so much the modern approaches to computing. These are the type of dimensions that you'll see have a particular impact on the pain points seen in the wold of applications. So now we go to the Use cases in, use cases in the internet of things. I think it's on your side, I'm sorry. Because it's the second machine. Okay, well, maybe here's the solution. So we have seen this picture of IOT multiple times. A lot of verticals, we are concentrating on this tree, one is the industrial, the second one is the autonomous vehicle in intelligent transportation, the third one, just touched upon is the Smart Grid. This is the area of activity for Nebbiolo Technologies. Those kind of body shops and industrial floors with large robots with a lot of activity around those robots with cells protecting the activities within each working space, this is the world PLCs, industrial Pcs controlling robots, very fragmented. Here we are really finding even more critical this boundary between operational and informational technologies. This is a fire wall, also a mental fire wall between the two worlds and best practice is very different in one place than the other particularly also in the way we handle data, security, and many other areas. In this space, which is also a little more characterized here with this kind of machines that you see in this ISA 99 or ISA 95 type of picture, you see the boundary between the two spaces, once more when we come back. And alright, so the key message here, very tough to go across, it's very complex, the interaction between the two worlds. And there is where deeply we find a number of pain points at the security level, at the Hardware architecture level, at the data analytics and storage level, at the networking, software technologies and control architecture. There's a lot happening there that is old, 1980's time frame, very stable but in need of new approaches. And this is where Fog Computing has a very strong impact And we'll see, sorry, this is a disaster here. Alright, what do we do, alright. Maybe I should go around with this computer and show it to you. Okay, now it's there for a moment. Now, this is, maybe you have to remember one picture of all this talk, look at this, what is this? This is a graphical image of a body shop of a an important car company, you see the dots represent computers within boxes, industrial Pcs, PLCs, controllers for welding machines, tools and so on. That is, if you sum up the numbers, it's thousands of computers, each one of them is updated through a UPC, USB stick, sorry and is not managed remotely. It's not secure because there's a trust that the whole area is enclosed and protected through a fire wall on the other side but it's very stable but very rigid. So this is the world that we are finding with dedicated, isolated, not secure computing, this is Edge Computing. But it's not what we hope to be seeing soon as Fog Computing in action there so this is the situation. Very delicate, very powerful and very motivating. And now comes IOT and this is not the solution. It's helping, IOT tries to connect this big region, the operational region to the back end to the Clouds, to the power of computing that is there, very important, predicting maintenance, many other things can be done from there but it's still not solving the problem. Because now you have to put little machines, gateways into that region, one more machine to manage, one more machine to secure and now you're taking the data out. You are not solving a lot of the pain points. There's some important benefits, this is very, very good. But it's not the story, the story is sold once you really go one step deeper, in fact, from connectivity between information technologies and informational technologies to really Convergence and you see it here where you're starting to replace those machines supporting each cell with a fog node, with a powerful convergent point of computing, real time computing that can allow control, analytics and storage and networking in the same nodes so now these nodes are starting to replace all the objects controlling a cell. And offer more functions to the cell itself. And now, you can imagine where this goes, to a convergent architecture, much more compact, much more homogeneous, much more like Cloud. Much more like Cloud brought down to the Edge. When this comes back, okay, almost there. So this is okay, this is now the image that you can image leads to this final picture that is now even not, okay, do you see it, okay. Now you're seeing the operational space with the fabric of computing storage and networking that is modern, that is virtualized, that supports an application store, now you have containers there. You can imagine virtual machines and dockers living the operational space. At the same time, you have it continuing from the Cloud to the network, the modern network, moving to the Edge into the operational space. This is where we are going and this is where the world wants us to go and the picture representing this transition and this application of Fog Computing in this area is the following, the triangle, the pyramid is now showing a layer of modern computing that allows communications analysis control application hosting and orchestration in a new way. This is cataclysmic, really is a powerful shift, still not fully understood but with immense consequences. And now you can do control, tight, close to the machines, a little slower through the Fog and a little slower through the Cloud, this is where we are going. And there's many, many used cases, I don't dwell on those. But we are proceeding with some of our partners exactly in this direction. Now the exciting topics if I can have five more minutes making up the time wasted. What's going on here, the connected vehicle, the autonomous vehicle, the electrification of automobile are all converging and I think it's very clear that the para dime of Fog Computing is fundamental here. And in fact, imagine the equivalent of a manufacturing cell with a converging capabilities into the Fog and compare it with what's going on with the autonomous vehicle. This is a picture we used a Sysco seven years ago. But this is now, a car is a set of little control loops, ECUs, little dispersed, totally connected computers. Very difficult to program, same as the manufacturing cell. And now where are we going, we are going towards a Fog node on wheels, data center on wheels but better a Fog node on wheels with much better networking between, with a convergence of the intelligence, the control, the analytics, the communications in the middle and a modern network deterministic internet called TSN is going to replace all these CAN boxes and all these flakey things of the past. Same movement in industrial and in the automobile and then you look at what's going on in the intelligent transportation, you can imagine Fog Computing at the edge, controlling the junctions, the traffic lights, the interactions with cars, cars to cars and you see it here, this is the image, again where you have the operational space of transportation connected to the Clouds in a seamless way which these nodes of computing storage and networking at the junctions inside the cars talking to each other, so this is the beautiful movement coming to us and it requires the distribution of resources with real time capabilities, here you see it. And now, the Smart Grid, again, it cannot continue to go the same way with a utility data center controlling everything one way, it has to have and this is from Duke and a standardization body, you can see that there's a need of intelligence in the middle, Fog nodes, distributed computing that are allowing local decisions. Energy coming from a microcell into the grid and out, a car that wants to sell it's energy or buy energy doesn't need to go slowly to a utility data center to make decisions so again, same architecture, same technologies needed, very, very, very powerful. And we could go on and on and on, so what are we doing? We won't advertise here but the name has to be remembered. The name comes from a grape that grows in the Fog in Northern Italy, it's in Piedmont, my home town is behind that 13th century castle you see there. Out there is Northern Italy close to Switzerland. That vineyard is from my cousin, it's a good Nebbiolo, starting to be sold in California too. So this is the name Nebbia Fog comes to, Nebbiolo Technologies, we are building a platform for this space with all the features that we feel are required and we are applying it to industrial automation. And our funders are not so much from here, are from Germany, Austria, KUKA Robotics, TTTech, GiTV from Japan and a few bullets to complete my presentation. Fog Computing is really happening. There's a deep need for this converged infrastructure for IOT including Fog or Edge as someone calls it. But we need to continue to learn, demonstrate, validate through pilots and POCs and we need to continue to converge with each other and with the integrators because these solutions are big and they are not from a little start up. They are from integrators, customers, big customers at the other end, an ecosystem of creative companies. No body has all the pieces, no Sisco, no GE and so on. In fact, they are all trying to create the ecosystem. And so let's play, let's enjoy the Cloud, the Fog and the machines and try to solve some of the big problems of this world. >> Okay, Flavio, well done. >> Sorry for that. Sorry for the hiccups. >> Now we do that on purpose to see how you'd react and you're a pro, thank you so much for the great presentation. >> Alright. >> Alright, now we're going to get into panel one, looking at the data models and putting data to work.

>> Why don't I spend just a couple minutes talking about what we mean by digital enactment, turning data in models and models into action. And then we'll jump directly into, I'll introduce the panelists after that, and we'll jump directly into the questions. So Wikibon SiliconAngle has been on a mission for quite sometime now to really understand what is the nature of digital transformation, or digital disruption. And historically, when we've talked about digital, people talk about a variety of different characteristics of it, so we'll talk about new types of channels and activity on the web, and a many number of other things. But to really make sense of this, we kind of felt that we had to go to a set of basic principles, and utilize those basic principles to build our observations up. And so what we started with is a simple observation that, if it's not digital, or if it's not data, it ain't digital. By that we mean fundamentally the idea of digital business is how are we going to use data as an asset to differentially drive our business forward? And if we borrowed from Drucker, Drucker used to like to talk about the idea that business exists to create sustained customers, and so we would say that digital business is about applying data assets to differentially create sustained customers. Now to do that successfully, we have to be able to, as businesses, be able to establish a set of strategic business capabilities that will allow us to differentially use data assets. And we think that there are a couple of core strategic business capabilities required. One is human beings and most businesses operate in the analog world, so it's how do we take that analog data and turn it into digital data that we can then process. So that's the first one, the notion of an IOT as a transducer of information so that we can generate these very rich data streams. Secondly we have to be able to do something with those data streams, and that's the basis of big data. So we utilize big data to create models, to create insights, and increasingly through a more declarative style, actually create new types of software systems that will be crucial to driving the business forward. That's the second capability. The third capability is one that we're still coming to understand, and that is we have to take the output of those models, the output of those insights, and then turn them back into some event that has a consequential moment in the real world, or what we call systems of an action. And so the three core business capabilities that have to be built are this capture data through IOT, big data to process it, systems of an action also through IOT, through actuators, to actually that have a consequential action in the real world. So that's the basis of what we're talking about. We're going to take Flavio's vision that he just laid out, and then we, in this panel, are going to talk about some of the business capabilities necessary to make that happen, and then after this, David Foyer will lead a panel on specifically some of the lower level technologies that are going to make it work. Make sense guys? >> Sounds good (mumbles). >> Okay, so let me introduce the panelists. Over, down there on the end, Ted Connell. Ted is from Intel, I don't know if we can get the slide up that has their names and their titles. Ted, why don't you very quickly introduce yourself. >> Yeah, thank you very much. I run Solution Architecture for the manufacturing and industrial vertical, where we put together end to end ecosystem solutions that solve our clients business problems. So we're not selling silicone or semiconductors, we're solving our clients problems, which as Flavio said, requires ecosystem solutions of software, system integrators, and other partners to come together to put together end solutions. >> Excellent, next to Ted is Steve Madden of Equinix. >> Yeah, Steve Madden. Equinix is the largest interconnection, global interconnection company and a lot of the ecosystems that you'll be hearing about, come together inside our locations. And one of the things I do in there is work with our big customers on industry vertical level solutions, IOT being one of them. >> Phu Hoang, from Data Torrent. >> Hi, my name's Phu Hoang, I'm co-founder and chief strategy of a company called Data Torrent, and at Data Torrent, our mission is really to build out solutions to allow enterprises to process big data in a streaming fashion. So that whole theme around ingestion, transformation, analytics, and taking action in sub second on massive data is what we're focusing on. >> And you're familiar with Flavio. Flavio, will you take a second to introduce yourself. >> Yes, thank you, I am leading a company that is trying to manifest the vision highlighted here, building a platform. Not so much the applications, we are hosting the applications (mumbles) the data management and so forth. And trying to apply the industrial vertical first. Big enough to keep us busy for quite a while. >> So in case you didn't know this, we have an interesting panel, we have use case, application, technol infrastructure, and platform. So what' we'll try to do is over the next, say, 10 minutes or so, we're going to spend a little bit of time, again, talking about some of these business capabilities. Let me start off by asking each of you a question, and I will take, if anybody is really burning to ask a question, raise your hand, I'll do my best to see you and I'll share the microphone for just long enough for you to ask it. Okay, so first question, digital business is data. That means we have to think about data differently. Ted, at Intel, what is Intel doing when they think about data as an asset? >> So, Intel has been working on what is now being called Fog, and big data analytics for over a generation. The modern xeon server we're selling, the wire in the electronics if you will, is 10 silicon atoms wide. So to control that process, we've had to do what is called Industry 4.0 20 years ago. So all of our production equipment has been connected for 20 years, we're running... One of our factories will produce a petabyte of data a day, and we're running big data analytics, including machine learning on the stuff currently. If you look at an Intel factory, we have 2,000 fit clients on the factory floor supported by 600 servers in our data center at the factory, just to control the process and run predictive yield analytics. >> Peter: So that's your itch? >> Our competitive advantage at Intel is the factory. We are a manufacturer, we're a world class manufacturer. Our front end factories have zero people in it, not that we don't like people, but we had to fully automate the factory because as I speak, tens of thousands of water molecules are leaving my mouth, and if one of those water molecules lands on a silicon, it ain't going to work. So we had to get people physically out of the factory, and so we were forced by Moore's Law, and the product we build, to build out what became Fog, when they came up with the term seven years ago, we just came to that conclusion because of cost, latency, and security, it made sense to, you know, look, you got data, you got compute, there's a network between. It doesn't matter where you do the compute, bring the compute to the data, the data to the compute. You're doing a compute function, it doesn't matter where you do it. So Fog is not complicated, it's just a distributed data center. >> So when you think about some of the technologies necessary to make this work, it's not just batch, we're going to be doing a lot of stuff in real time, continuously. So Phu, talk a little bit about the system software, the infrastructure software that has to be put in place to ensure that this works for them. >> I think that's great. A little bit about our background, the company was founded by a bunch of ex-Yahoos that had been out for 12, 15 years from the early days. So we sort of grew up in that period where we had to learn about big data, learn about making all the mistakes of big data, and really seeing that nowadays, it's not good enough to get insight, you have to get insight in a timely fashion enough to actually do something about it. And for a lot of enterprise, especially with human being carrying around mobile phones and moving around all over the place, and sensors sending thousands, if not millions of events per second, the need for the business to understand what's going on and react, have insight and react sub second, is crucial. And what that means is the stuff that used to be batch, offline, you know, can kind of go down, now has to be continuous, 24 by seven. You can't lose data, you got to be able to recover and come back to where you were as if nothing has happened with no human intervention. There's a lot of theme around no human intervention, because this stuff is so fast, you can't involve human beings in it, then you're not reacting fast enough. >> Can I real quickly add one thing first? >> Peter: Sure. >> We think of data at Intel in half life terms. >> Yeah, that's exactly right. >> The data has valuable right now. If you wait a second, literally a second, the data has a little bit of value. You wait two second, it's historical data you can run regressions, and tell you why you screwed up, but you ain't going to fix anything. >> Exactly. >> If you want to do anything with your data, you got to do it now. >> So that, ultimately, we need to develop experience, a creed experience about what we're doing. And the stuff we're doing in applications will eventually find itself into platforms. So Flavio, talk to us a little bit about the types of things that are going to end up in the platform to ensure that these use cases are made available to, certainly, businesses that perhaps aren't as sophisticated as Intel. >> Yes, so in many ways, we are learning from what is going on in the Cloud, and has to come through this continuum, all the way into the machines. This break between what's going inside the machine, and old 1980 microprocessor and the server, and the Cloud server with virtualization on the other side cannot leave. So it has to be a continuum of computing so you can move the same function, the same container, all the way through first. Second, you really have to take the real time very, very seriously, particularly at the edge, but even in the back so that when you have these end to end continuum, you can decide where you do what. And I think that one of the models that was in that picture with a concentric circle is really telling what we need to learn first. Bring the data back and learn, and that can take time. But then you can have models that are lightweight, that can be brought down to the front, and impact the reaction to the data there. And we heard from a car company, a big car company, how powerful this was when they learned that the angle of a screwdriver, and a few other parameters, can determine the success of screwing something into a body of a car, that could go well, or could go very, very bad and be very costly. So all the learning, massive data, can come down to a simple model that can save a lot of money and improve efficiency. But that has to be hosted along this continuum. >> So from a continuum, it means we still have to have machines somewhere to do something. >> Touching the ground, touching the physical world requires machines, actuators. >> Peter: Absolutely, so Steve, what is Equinix doing to simplify the thinking through of some of these infrastructure issues? >> Yeah, I mean, the biggest thing that people find when they start looking at millions of devices, millions of data capture points, transferring those data real time and streaming it, is one thing hasn't changed and that's physics. So where those things are, where they need to go, where the data needs to move to and how fast, starts with having to figure out your own topology of how you're moving that data. As much as it's easy to say we're just going to buy a platform and choose a device, and we'll clink them together, there's still a lot of other things that need to be solved, physics being the first one. The second one, primarily, is volumes. So how much bandwidth and (mumbles) you're going to require. How much of that data are you going to back haul to centralized data center before you send it up to a Cloud? How much of it are you going to leave at the edge? Where do you place that becomes a bigger deal. And the third one is pretty much every industry has to deal with regulations. Regulations control what you can and can't do in terms of IT delivery, where you can place stuff, where you cannot place stuff, data that can leave the country, data that can't. So all these things mean that you need to have a thought through process of where you're placing certain functions, and what you're defining as your itch between the digital and physical world. And Equinix is an interconnection company that's sitting there as a neutral party across all the networks, all the clouds, all the enterprises, all the providers to help people figure that out. >> So before I ask the audience a question, now that I'm down here so I can see you so be prepared, I'm going to ask some of you a question. When you think about the strategic business capabilities necessary to succeed, what is the first thing that the business has to do? So why don't I just take Ted, and just go right on down the line. >> Yeah, so I think this is really, really important. I work with many, many clients around the world who are doing five, 10, 15 POCs, pilots, and the internet things, and they haven't thought through a codified strategy. So they're doing five things that will never fit together, that you will never scale, and the learnings you're using, you really can't do that much with. So coming up with what is my architecture, what is my stack going to look like, how am I going to push data, what is my data... You know, because when you connect to these things, I can't tell you how much data you're going to get. You're going to be overwhelmed by the data, and that's why we all go to the edge, and I got to process this data real time. And oh, by the way, if I only have one source of data, like I'm connecting to production equipment, you're not going to learn anything. 98% of that data's useless, you got to contextualize the data with either an inspection step, or some kind of contextualization that tells you if this then that. You need the then that, without that, your data is basically worthless. So now you're pulling multiple sources of data together in real time to make an understanding. And so understanding what that architecture looks like, spend the time upfront. Look, most of us are engineers, you know five percent additional work upfront saves you 95% on the backend, that's true here. So think through the architecture, talk to some of us who have been working in this area for a long time. We'll share our architecture, we have reference architecture that we're working with companies. How do you go from industry 2.0 or industry 3.0, to industry 4.0? And there is a logical path to do it, but ultimately, where we're going to end up is a software defined universe. I mean, what's a cloud? It's a software defined data center. Now we're doing software defined networks, software defined storages, ultimately we're going to be doing software defined systems because it's cheaper. You get better capital utilization, better asset utilization, so we will go there, so what does that mean for you infrastructure, and what are you going to do from an architectural perspective, and then take all of your POCs and pilots, and force them to do that specifically around security. People are doing POCs with security that they don't even have any protocols, they're violating all their industry standards doing POCs, and that's going to get thrown out. It's wasted time, wasted effort, don't do it. >> Steve, a couple sentences? >> Yeah, essentially it's not going to be any prizes for me saying think interconnection first. A lot of our customers, if we look at what they've done with us, everyone from GE to real time facial recognition at the edge, it all comes down to how are you wired, topology wise, first. You can't use the internet for risk reasons, you can't necessarily pay for multiple (mumbles) bandwidth costs, et cetera. So low latency, 80% lower latency, seven times of bandwidth at half the cost is a scalable infrastructure to move (mumbles) around the planet. If you don't have that, the rest of the stuff (mumbles) breakdown. >> Peter: Phu? >> Well I would say that analytics is hard, analytics in real time is even harder. And I think with us talking to our customers, I feel for them, they're confused. There's like a million solutions out there, everybody's trying to claim to do the same thing. I think it's both sides, consumers have to get more educated, they have to be more intelligent about their POCs, but as an industry, we also have to get better at thinking about how do we help our customer succeed. It's not about let me give you some open source, and then let me spend the next 10 months charging you professional services to help you. We ought to think about software tools and enterprise tools to really help the customer be able to think about their total cost (mumbles) and time to value to handle this thing, because it's not easy. >> Peter: Flavio. >> Yeah, we're facing an interesting situation where the customers are ready, the needs are there, the marketing is going to be huge, but the plot, the solution, is not trivial. It is maturing and we are all trying to understand how to do it. And this is the confusion that you see in many of these half baked solution (mumbles). Everything is coming together, and you have to go up the stalk and down the stalk with full confidence, that's not easy. So we all have to really work together. Give ourselves time, be feeling that we are in a competitive world, preparing for addressing together a huge market. And trying to mature these solutions that then will be replicated more and more, but we have to be patient with each other, and with the technologies that are maturing and they're not fully there and understood. But the market is amazing. >> Peter: So we have a Twitter question. >> Man: It's being live streamed, the audience is really engaged online as well, digital. So we have a question from Twitter from Lauren Cooney saying, "Would like to know what industries would "be most impacted with digitization "over the next five years." >> Which one won't be? (men laughing) All of them, what we've seen, the business model is the data. I mean, our CEOs calling data the new gold. I mean, it's the new oil. So I don't know of anything, unless you're doing something that is just physical therapy, but that even data, you can do data on that. So yeah, everything, yeah, I don't know of anything that won't be. >> I think the real question is how is it going to move through industries. Obviously it's going to start with some of the digital native, it's all ready deep into that, deep into media, we're moving through the media right now. Intel's clearly a digital company, and you've been working, you've been on this path for quite some time. >> Let me give you a stat. Intel has a 105,000 people, and 144,000 servers. So we're about 1.5 server to people, that's what kind of computation we're (mumbles). >> Peter: We can help you work on that. >> If you do like the networking started by (mumbles) the internet, then content delivery, and media, hard media, et cetera, is gone. Financial services and trading exchanges pretty much show what digital market's going to be in the future. Cloud showed up, and now, I think he's right, it's effecting every industry. Manufacturing, industrial, health professional services are the top three right now. But people who shop to ask for help went from every industry on every country, for that matter. >> Our customers are, you know, the top players in almost every vertical. You start out as a small company thinking that you're going to attack one vertical, but as you start to talk about the capability, everybody (mumbles) wait, you're solving my problem. >> Peter: (mumbles) are followers, is what you mean. >> Yeah, because what business would say, hey, I don't want to know what's going on with my business, and I don't want to take any action. >> Add to that it's an ecosystem of ecosystems. No one, by themselves, is going to solve anything. They have to partner and connect with other people to solve the solution. >> So I'll close the panel by making these kind of summary comments, the business capabilities that we think are going to be most important are, first off, when we talk about the internet of things, we like to talk about the internet of things and people. That the people equation doesn't go away. So we're building on mobile, we're building on other things, but if there's a strategic capability that's going to be required, it's going to be how is this going to impact folks who actually create value in the business. The second one, I'll turn it around, is that IT organizations have gone through a number of different range wars, if you will, over the past 20 years. I lived through IT versus telecom, for example. The IT, OT conflict, or potential conflict, is non trivial. There's going to be some serious work that has to be done, so I would add to the conversation that we've heard thus far, the answers that we've heard thus far, is the degree to which people are going to be essential to making this work, and how we diffuse this knowledge into our employees, and into our IT and professional communities is going to be crucial, especially with developers because Flavio, if we are, right now, trying to figure stuff out, it really matures when we think about the developer world. Okay, so I want to close the first panel and get ready for the second panel. So thank you very much, and thank you very much to our panelists. (audience applauding) And if we could bring David Foyer and the second panel up, we'll get going on panel two. Oh, we're going to get together for a picture. (exciting rhythmic music)
