>> Narrator: Live from Las Vegas, it's theCUBE. Covering Dell EMC World 2017, brought to you by Dell EMC. >> Okay, welcome back everyone, we are live in Las Vegas for Dell EMC World 2017. This is theCUBE's eighth year of coverage of what was once EMC World, now it's Dell EMC World 2017. I'm John Furrier at SiliconANGLE, and also my cohost from SiliconANGLE, Paul Gillin. Our next guest is Vikram Bhambri, who is the Vice President of Product Management at Dell EMC. Formally with Microsoft Azure, knows cloud, knows VIPRE, knows the management, knows storage up and down, the Emerging Technologies Group, formerly of EMC. Good to see you on theCUBE again. >> Good to see you guys again. >> Okay, so Elastic Compute, this is going to be the game changer. We're so excited about one of our favorite interviews was your colleague we had on earlier. Unstructured data, object store, is becoming super valuable. And it was once the throwaway, "Yeah, store, later late ". Now with absent data driven enterprises having access to data is the value proposition that they're all driving towards. >> Absolutely. >> Where are you guys with making that happen and bringing that data to life? >> So, when I think about object storage in general, people talk about it's the S3 protocol, or it's the object protocol versus the file protocol. I think the conversation is not about that. The conversation is about data of the universe is increasing and it's increasing tremendously. We're talking about 44 zettabytes of data by 2020. You need an easier way to consume, store, that data in a meaningful way, and not only just that but being able to derive meaningful insights out of that either when the data is coming in or when the data is stored on a periodic basis being able to drive value. So having access to the data at any point of time, anywhere, is the most important aspect of it. And with ECS we've been able to actually attack the market from both sides. Whether it's talking about moving data from higher cost storage arrays or higher performance tiers down to a more accessible, more cheap storage that is available geographically, that's one market. And then also you have tons of data that's available on the tape drive but that data is so difficult to access, so not available. And if you want to go put that tape back on a actual active system the turnaround time is so long. So being able to turn all of that storage into an active storage system that's accessible all the time is the real value proposition that we have to talk about. >> Well now help me understand this because we have all these different ways to make sense of unstructured data now. We have NoSQL databases, we have JSON, we have HDFS, and we've got object storage. Where does it fit into the hierarchy of making sense of unstructured data? >> The simplest way to think about it is we talk about a data ocean, with the amount of data that's growing. Having the capability to store data that is in a global content repository. That is accessible-- >> Meaning one massive repository. >> One massive repository. And not necessarily in one data center, right? It's spread across multiple data centers, it's accessible, available with a single, global namespace, regardless of whether you're trying to access data from location A or location B. But having that data be available through a single global namespace is the key value proposition that object storage brings to bear. The other part is the economics that we're able to provide consistently better than what the public clouds are able to offer. You're talking about anywhere between 30 to 48% cheaper TCO than what public clouds are able to offer, in your own data center with all the constraints that you want to like upload to it, whether it's regular environments. Whether you're talking about country specific clouds and such, that's where it fits well together. But, exposing that same data out whether through HDFS or a file is where ECS differentiated itself from other cloud platforms. Yes, you can go to a Hadoop cluster and do a separate data processing but then you're creating more copies of the same data that you have in your primary storage. So things like that essentially help position object as the global content repository where you can just dump and forget about, about the storage needs. >> Vikram I want to ask you about the elastic cloud storage, as you mentioned, ECS, it's been around for a couple of years. You just announced a ECS lesser cloud storage, dedicated cloud. Can you tell me what that is and more about that because some people think of elastic they think Amazon, "I'll just throw it in object storage in the cloud." What are you guys doing specifically 'cause you have this hybrid offering. >> Absolutely. >> What is this about, can you explain that? >> Yeah, so if you look at, there are two extremes, or two paradigms that people are attracted by. On one side you have public clouds which give you the ease of use, you just swipe your credit card and you're in business. You don't have to worry about the infrastructure, you don't have to worry about, like, "Where my data is going to be stored?" It's just there. And then on the other side you have regular environments or you just have environments where you cannot move to public clouds so customers end up put in ECS, or other object storage for that matter, though ECS is the best. >> John: Biased, but that's okay. >> Yeah, now we are starting to see customers they're saying, "Can I have the best of both worlds? "Can I have a situation where I like the ease of use "of the public cloud but I don't want to "be in a shared bathtub environment. "I don't want to be in a public cloud environment. "I like the privacy that you are able to provide me "with this ECS in my own data center "but I don't want to take on the infrastructure management." So for those customers we have launched ECS dedicated cloud service. And this is specifically targeted for scenarios where customers have maybe one data center, two data centers, but they want to use the full strength and the capabilities of ECS. So what we're telling them we will actually put their bought ECS in our data centers, ECS team will operate and manage that environment for the customer but they're the only dedicated customer on that cloud. So that means they have their own environment-- >> It's completely secure for their data. >> Vikram: Exactly. >> No multi tenant issues at all. >> No, and you can have either partial capabilities in our data center, or you can fully host in our data center. So you can do various permutation and combinations thus giving customers a lot of flexibility of starting with one point and moving to the other. Let's them start with a private cloud, they want to move to a hybrid version they can move that, or if they start from the hybrid and they want to go back to their own data centers they can do that as well. >> Let's change gears and talk about IoT. You guys had launched Project Nautilus, we also heard that from your boss earlier, two days ago. What is that about? Explain, specifically, what is Project Nautilus? >> So as I was mentioning earlier there is a whole universe of data that is now being generated by these IoT devices. Whether you're talking about connected cars, you're talking about wind sensors, you're talking about anything that collects a piece of data that needs to be not only stored but people want to do realtime analysis on that dataset. And today people end up using a combination of 10 different things. They're using Kafka, Speak, HDFS, Cassandra, DASH storage to build together a makeshift solution, that sort of works but doesn't really. Or you end up, like, if you're in the public cloud you'll end up using some implementation of Lambda Architecture. But the challenge there is you're storing same amount of data in a few different places, and not only that there is no consistent way of managing data, processing data that effectively. So what Project Nautilus is our attempt to essentially streamline all of that. Allow stream of data that's coming from these IoT devices to be processed realtime, or for batch, in the same solution. And then once you've done that processing you essentially push that data down to a tier, whether it's Isilon or ECS, depending on the use case that you are trying to do. So it simplifies the whole story on realtime analytics and you don't want to do it in a closed source way. What we've done is we've created this new paradigm, or new primitive called streaming storage, and we are open sourcing it, we are Project Pravega, which is in the Apache Foundation. We want the whole community, just like there is a common sense of awareness for object file we want to that same thing for streaming storage-- >> So you guys are active in open source. Explain quickly, many might not know that. Talk about that. >> So, yeah, as I mentioned Project Prevega is something we announced at Flink Forward Conference. It's a streaming storage layer which is completely open source in the Apache Foundation and we just open sourced it today. And giving customers the capability to contribute code to it, take their version, or they can do whatever they want to do, like build additional innovation on top. And the goal is to make streaming storage just like a common paradigm like everything else. And in addition we're partnering with another open source component. There is a company called data Artisans based out of Berlin, Germany, and they have a project called Flink, and we're working with them pretty closely to bring Nautilus to fruition. >> theCUBE was there by the way, we covered Flink Forward again, one of the-- >> Paul: True streaming engine. >> Very good, very big open source project. >> Yeah, we we're talking with Jeff Woodrow earlier about software defined storage, self driving storage as he calls it. >> Where does ECS fit in the self driving storage? Is this an important part of what you're doing right now or is it a different use? >> Yeah, our vision right from the beginning itself was when we built this next generation of object storage system it has to be software first. Not only software first where a customer can choose their commodity hardware to bring to bear or we an supply the commodity hardware but over time build intelligence in that layer of software so that you can pull data off smartly to other, from SSDs to more SATA based drives. Or you can bring in smarts around metadata search capabilities that we've introduced recently. Because you have now billions of billions of records that are being stored on ECS. You want ease of search of what specifically you're looking for, so we introduced metadata search capability. So making the storage system and all of the data services that were usually outside of the platform, making them be part of the code platform itself. >> Are you working with Elasticsearch? >> Yes, we are using Elasticsearch more to enable customers who want to get insights about ECS itself. And Nautilus, of course, is also going to integrate with Elasticsearch as well. >> Vikram let's wrap this up. Thank you for coming on theCUBE. Bottom line, what's the bottom line message, quickly, summarize the value proposition, why customers should be using ECS, what's the big aha moment, what's the proposition? >> I would say the value proposition is very simple. Sometimes it can be like, people talk about lots of complex terms, it's very simple. Sustainably, low cost storage, for storing a wide variety of content in a global content repository is the key value proposition. >> And used for application developers to tap into? The whole dev ops, data as code, infrastructure as code movement. >> Yeah, you start, what we have seen in the majority of the used cases customers start with one used case of archiving. And then they very quickly realize that there's, it's like a Swiss Army knife. You start with archiving then you move on to application development, more modern applications, or in the cloud native applications development. And now with IoT and Nautilus being able to leverage data from these IoT devices onto these-- >> As I said two days ago, I think this is a huge, important area for agile developers. Having access to data in less than a hundred milliseconds, from any place in the world, is going to be table steaks. >> ECS has to be, or in general, object storage, has to be part of every important conversation that is happening about digital IT transformation. >> It sounds like eventually most of the data's going to end up there. >> Absolutely. >> Okay, so I'll put ya on the spot. When are we going to be seeing data in less than a hundred milliseconds from any database anywhere in the fabric of a company for a developer to call a data ocean and give me data back from any database, from any transaction in less than a hundred milliseconds? Can we do that today? >> We can do that today, it's available today. The challenge is how quickly enterprises are adopting the technology. >> John: So they got to architect it? >> Yeah. >> They have to architect it. >> Paul: If it's all of Isilon. >> They can pull it, they can cloud pull it down from Isilon to ECS. >> True. >> Yeah. >> Speed, low latency, is the key to success. Congratulations. >> Thank you so much. >> And I love this new object store, love this tier two value proposition. It's so much more compelling for developers, certainly in cloud native. >> Vikram: Absolutely. >> Vikram, here on theCUBE, bringing you more action from Las Vegas. We'll be right back as day three coverage continues here at Dell EMC World 2017. I'm John Furrier with Paul Gillan, we'll be right back.

from Las Vegas accepting the signal from the noise it's the queue coverage interconnect 2016 brought to you by IBM now your home John Murray had named a lot day ok welcome back everyone we are here live in Las Vegas for exclusive coverage of IBM interconnect 2016 this is the cube Silicon angles flagship program where we go out to the events and extract the signal annoys I'm John for rhythmic O's Dave a lot a and we're excited to have our youngest guest we've ever had on the Cuban our six-year seventh year doing it 10 Maybach che who's the star of the show coding since age 5 welcome to the cube hello ok so how was the first time you wrote code well actually I was 5 and I started with FoxPro programming on a really old computer forgot who manufactured it in general with my dad's help alright so how do you feel with all these old people around you like us learning back in the old days you're the next generation so how do you feel about all this these sub celebrity status you're famous on YouTube a lot of people love your videos you've been great teacher yeah I love to help people so it feels great yeah was that what was the how many videos have you posted now I have around 80 videos 88 yes all sort of sort of self-help yeah programming here's how to yes sure and and your community is growing I presume yeah is your dad a programmer uh he he does work as a programmer yet uh-huh so is that how you first yes my first got into programming but now sometimes that you can teach my dad programmers do for iOS teaching the teachers ok so when did you surpass your dad in the in the programming really all when the Iowa my first iOS app t-tables which helps you learn multiplication tables was accepted into the iOS App Store and so right after that I started using the Internet as a tool to basically learn programming and at that point I just started learning more and more yeah and you like teaching people too so not only do you develop you also are teaching folks and you like that yes yes all right so when was the last time you push code this morning today kind of clock morning yeah oxi agile a little update for us Tim it allows you to ask another question from the result page I said what's cool about the the current stuff you're seeing here are you playing with Watson at all's Watson integrate actually I use Watson in the latest app that I've developed which I was actually presenting yesterday at the cloud Expo it's called a stem ray and so basically it you can ask it person or organization questions like who is the CEO of IBM and it should be able to answer them and so it does use IBM Watson's api's in this case relationship abstraction and natural language classifier are you using bluemix at all yes absolutely I love what makes it's really easy to use the Watson api's containers and stuff yeah I like it was a developer you feel like the services the richness of the services in bluemix so to satisfy your your general needs and yes what what more would you like to see out of bluemix well mainly out of bluemix nothing that i can think off the top of my head but for watson i really want more sort of api's don't have anything in general in specific that i can think of but more IBM watson api's would be great so you've also done some development for wearables right Apple watch is that right or yes I have developed apps that are actually I have a TGS app it's a number guessing game app for the Apple watch and iPhone on the App Store I also have developed for Mac OS X but I don't have any apps on the App Store for that yet what are you what do you think about the wearables thing is remember when Google glass came out John actually went and got with the first Google glass of your son Alec was wearing it as graduation and but they were sort of you know kind of not they were sort of awkward you know it didn't and people said I don't know you have an apple developer Kate was pretty weak at the time it wasn't coming I thought was a great first version and I love it it's it's sandbox stuff but so what do you what do you think about you know wearables the development environment yeah you encouraged about the future of them do they have a long way to go give us your thoughts on that Tanmay well to begin first of all on the Apple watch I love pretty much the portability of these sorts of devices and there's one more thing but I want sort of like the Apple watch and the Google glass it would be best if there were independent devices instead of connected to your phones they could be sort of like a Mac and an iPhone they can share data with each other but they shouldn't have to depend on each other that's one thing that I'm not too much of a fan of about them so I mean if my inference is that's a form factor related you know you can only do so much on the problem on a watch but do you I mean I know there's a lot going on in Silicon Valley with the future of the way in which we you know communicate I just wonder as a young person right you you've always been had a device like this right you're your disposal but it seems to me that using our thumbs to communicate to these devices is doesn't seem to be the right way asking the AI question yeah so exactly is is the future you know artificial intelligence what do you envision as a as a developer how are we going to communicate with these devices in the future well first of all let me just tell you our computers sort of power is not with natural language it's with math because of our human is better at sort of talking to people like we are right now not at sort of mass or live it would be harder for a human to do math but a computer can do math easier natural language you can't do whatsoever and so first of all in order to program in even asked anime it would take a lot of code and so what I can really think is we the next I don't know how many years it's going to take a long time to get to the sort of really powerful questions answering systems that can answer with a hundred percent accuracy not even hey we could do that so Tama you've been using the internet for outreach and in building a community to teach people than great the next step is you can't be everywhere so you use the internet but what about virtual reality oculus rift have you played with any of this stuff not yet but I plan on soon yes you you enticed by that yes I'm specifically excited about microsoft hololens the virtual Tanmay on the whiteboard you could be everywhere that way all right so what's the coolest language right now for you I mean I see your we heard Swift on stage you did the iOS app water what are some of the cool things well first of all I've developed as Ted may in Python and Java for the backend and HTML for the interface and PHP for the interface and back-end bridge but the most interesting language that I've ever used really is Swift huh first of all second I'd say as a close second is Java because it's portability you create something on Linux and it would almost easily work on Windows and Mac as well Chavez Chavez a good language is good for heavy lifting things yeah how about visualization are you thinking anything about rich media at all and visualization uh I'm I'll get the data you have the Swift absolute the mobile yes visualizing other media techniques with the T with math and with your truth your developer is what are you using for visualization graphics o for graphics well I'm not actually a graphic designer I'm trying to focus all more on the programming side of things but I do develop the user interface for example I actually had another app except to the a few days ago a goal setting app for which I had the same user interface then sort of graphics themselves I don't see usually hardcore fans but use you know the libraries yes 10 May you mentioned the Swift was your favorite language what's so alluring about it from a developer's perspective the syntax is great and it's really powerful which is what I love about Swift so it's easy and and powerful yes exactly so um you from Toronto right um sorry Toronto yeah how we say it right so is there a big developer community there I know there is a growing one but sorry uh well I have I don't really meet with people in person and develop together I'm more of an independent developer right now but I do definitely help people want to one on my youtube channel with really any questions or problems they have if you'd like to see my YouTube channel of course it's called Tim live action I get to answer yes when it's called Tim me back she which is my name yes okay can google it up and you'll find it I teach stuff like computing programming algorithms Watson math and science and so yeah so actually if you like an example a few days ago actually another app called speak for handicap was accepted into the iOS App Store and I developed that with von Clement which is one who is one of my subscribers and so yeah it took us a few months of hard work and we were able to even epic n' speak for handicaps it allows them to essentially speak i'm going to ask you the question so a lot of moment I have four kids to her about your age they are naturally attracted to programming it's fun it's like sports you know it's really fun for them and so that but a lot of them don't know how to way to start you had you were lucky you fell right into it five well you get that a lot of us knows you get a lot of questions on your on your YouTube channel around that you people excited for your next video but for the folks that are now seeing you and want to get in it might be a little scared can you share what you've learned and what advice would you give folks what I recommend is start out slow start doing some stuff in programming don't immediately get into the harder sort of thing start with really simple applications and don't develop when you need to develop you want to essentially programming things randomly for example I learned Swift like pretty much entirely due to the fact that first of all I'm writing a book on it it's for iOS app developers for beginners and also because I would just programming stuff randomly I didn't wait for me to need to programming something or for if I wanted to make an iOS app an order program in something for one day trader prime number checker the mastery number generator stuff like that and so just randomly anything I times it'll create a YouTube video on it to help people you could also use again a YouTube channel as sort of a place to learn programming and so use the internet as resource every developer has to pull those late nights and sometimes you pups to pull an all-nighter have you pulled an all-nighter coding that's not happy about that trouble without stuck he was doing it into the covers but also developers also struggle sometimes on the really hard problem and then the satisfaction of cracking the code or breaking through can you give us an example where you were pulling your hair out you were really focused on the problem you were kind of thrashing through it and you made it through yes actually any I could give you but the one that I remember most is during a Stanley's development at first I was using the multi processing library in Python in order to send multiple queries to relationship extraction at once but then what happened I don't know whether it was a memory management issue or something but after let's say five queries the sixth one will be painfully slow then I tried out the threading library why not and so next after around 10 queries the eleventh one will be painfully slow again I have no idea why then now this was in Python and so what I decided to do was maybe reprogram it for threading in Java and then have Python communicate with Java and so what I did is I learned job I the day because I hadn't ever touched that before because again once you went in programming basics it's really easy to move to another language and slipped in python there actually slipped in general is quite similar to Java except java's a little bit simpler and so yeah I learned drama today the next day I programmed in a simple relationship extraction threading module made a jar out of it and let Python communicate with the jar and so after that the glitch was mostly fixed it was just Python not threading properly or you could never got to the problem I was not able to find out what the problem was but I mean yeah so what kind of machine do you run he's like you driver the car multi-threading you got a lot of processors how many cores what kind of machine do you have on the attack what's your local host mic 27-inch 5k Retina iMac with 64 gigs of RAM and four cores I mean acre yeah four cores than hyper-threaded eight cores until I seven and that's good for you right now yeah you're happy with it yeah how about any external in the cloud any obviously SSD uh I don't actually I do have a wood set of course but then I don't really host anything online yet because I don't have a need for it yet but then what I'm going to make a send me public of course that I'm going to need a quite a powerful server get her to what so the industry needs your help have you thought about rewriting the Linux kernel actually I a few years ago I was I didn't really have anything to do so that's why I started YouTube but before that I actually I was really interested in operating systems i coded my little own with a hello world operating system assembly which could run on I forgot the architecture it runs on but it was quite interesting then again after that my youtube I started to take that more seriously and I didn't really have enough time to do that any projects you're working on now that excite you that you can share with us may be solving the speed of light problem actually mainly right now I've been working on as Tammy but I do have many other applications that I'm working on in an app that could help University students and developers with essentially it's an algorithm lookup if you'd like an algorithm that can help you do path finding for example you just put in path finding as a tag and some other things and then it'll give you a star dice other sort of algorithms and it uses the concept insights service and walks and I've also made a tweak classifier where you can say like let's say there's a hashtag on Twitter where there are two separate sort of things that you could talk about for example to hashtag Swift lang on Twitter at one Swift was open sourced it was there are two different types of people just talk about something general like nothing ever happened or they're talking about open sourcing let's say you wanted to see only news about Swift being open source well then you give Watson some examples of tweets that you like and sweets that you don't like and then eventually it would be able to tell you or give you tweets that you only you like it's a very hydration engine on context yes exactly an easy natural language classifier service so talk about social media I mean here at your age and what you've been through and what you know technically you have a good visit understanding of operating systems coding and all the principles of computer science but as it gets more complicated with social media people are all connected what's your view of the future going to be mean is it if Algrim is gonna solve the problem what do you think about the future how do you think about it 10 years out well first of all the world needs more programmers and I think more sort of algorithms and naturalizers processing are the means were the topics that we're going to focus on later have you ever been a Silicon Valley yes but it's so not not in a developer capacity in sort of visiting it would you like to sort of visit there yeah what does spend time with some of your your colleagues in the heart of development land John's out there your idols Steve Jobs Tim coke Bill Gates how about like I'm a software developer perspective any cult following people you love like some of the early guys coders any names that did pop to mind uh not the optimal might immediate jobs mo are you supposed in the orchestra are you running the orchestra he was a good product guy so if you can invent the product right now on the queue but would it be it would be mostly iron wrong sort of a QA system with almost a hundred percent accuracy that would be best in I state we have a hologram right here we have guests interface with us that would be cool how about that huh you are would you like to come to work for us and develop that we'd love to have you I like congratulate you on being the youngest ever cube alum we have this little community of cube you know alumni and you are the youngest ever so congratulations really fantastic a very impressive you know young man and really very separate you to all and congratulations thank thank you come on the Q things with spending the time this is the cube bringing you all the action here handmade doing some great stuff he's very young very fluent understands thread and understands coding and this is the future in a born in born in code that's that that's the future developers and we hope to see more great software developers come on the market the day to the analytics of course Watson's right there with you along the way things we come on the cube appreciate we right back with more cube coverage here exclusive coverage at IBM interconnect 2016 I'm John for what David love they be right back

Las Vegas expensing the signal from the noise it's the cue interconnect 2016 brought to you by IBM we are here live in Las Vegas for exclusive coverage of IBM interconnect 2016 this is the cube Silicon angles flagship program where we go out to the events and extract the signal annoys I'm John four is my close Dave a lot a and we're excited to have our youngest guest we've ever had on the Cuban our six-year seventh year doing it ten Maybach che who's the star of the show coding since age five welcome to the cube well actually I was five and I started with Foxborough programming a really old computer forgot who manufactured it in general with my dad's help alright so how do you feel with all these old people around you like us you're the next generation so how do you feel about all this these sub celebrity status you're famous on YouTube a lot of people love your videos you've been great teacher yeah I love to help people so it feels great yeah was that what was the how many videos have you posted now I have around 80 videos 88 it's all sort of sort of self-help programming here's how to and and your community is growing I presume is your dad a programmer he does work as a programmer yes uh-huh so is that how you first first got into programming but now sometimes that you can teach my dad for teaching the teachers okay when did you surpass your dad in in the programming really when Iowa my first iOS app t-tables which helps you learn multiplication tables I was accepted into the iOS App Store and so right after that I started using the Internet as a tool to basically learn programming and at that point I just started learning more and more yeah and you like teaching people too so not only do you develop you also teaching folks and you'd like that yes yes all right so when was the last time you push code this morning today a little update for us to admit allows you to ask another question from the result page what's cool about the the current stuff you're seeing here are you playing with Watson at all Watson integrate actually I use Watson in the latest app that I've developed which I was actually presenting yesterday at the cloud Expo it's called a stamina and so basically it you can ask it person or organization questions like who is the CEO of IBM and it should be able to answer them and so it does use IBM Watson's api's in this case

you can't do whatsoever and so first of all in order to program in even a Stanley it would take a lot of code and so what I can really think of is we for the next I don't know how many years it's going to take a long time to get through the sort of really powerful question of answering systems that can answer with a hundred percent accuracy not even here we could do that so Timmy you've been using the internet for outreach and in building a community to teach people then great the next step is you can't be everywhere so you use the internet but what about virtual reality oculus rift have you played with any of this stuff no yet but I plan on soon yes you enticed by that yes specifically excited about microsoft hololens virtual Tanmay you could be everywhere that way all right so what's the coolest language right now for you I mean I see your we heard Swift on stage you did the iOS app order what are some of the cool things as Ted made in Python and Java for the backend and HTML for the interface and PHP for the interface and back-end bridge but the most interesting language that I've ever used really is Swift first of all second I'd say as a close second is Java because it's portability you create something on Linux and it would almost easily work on the Windows and Mac as well this job is a good language for heavy lifting things how about a visualization are you thinking anything about rich media at all and visualization you have the swift absolute the mobile yes visualizing other media techniques with the T with math and with your truth your developers what are you using for visualization graphics for graphics I'm not actually a graphic designer I'm trying to focus more on the programming side of things but I do develop the user interface for example I actually had another app except of the a few days ago a goal setting app for which I had to write inside the user interface the sort of graphics themselves I don't but you know the libraries it's 10 May you mentioned the Swift is your favorite language what's so alluring about it from a developer's perspective this syntax is great and it's really powerful which is what I love about Swift so it's easy and and powerful yes exactly so you from Toronto right I'm sorry Toronto yes we say it right so is there a big developer community there I know there was a growing one but I don't really meet with people in person and develop together I'm more of an independent developer right now but I do definitely help people want to want on my youtube channel with really any questions or problems they have and if you'd like to see my youtube channel of course it's called team live actually get to it sir yes mine it's called Timmy Bakshi which is my name yes okay can google it up and you'll find it I teach stuff like computing programming algorithms Watson math and science and so yeah so actually if you like an example a few days ago actually another app called speak for handicap is accepted into the iOS App Store and I developed that with Vaughn Clement which is one who is one of my subscribers and so yeah it took us a few months of hard work and we were even that up again speak for handicaps it allows them to actually speak I'm gonna ask you the question so a lot of moma I have four kids - or about your age they are naturally attracted to programming it's fun it's like sports you know it's really fun for them and so that but a lot of them don't know how to wait a start you had you were lucky you fell right into it five what you get that a lot of ice knows you get a lot of questions on your on your YouTube channel around that you people excited for your next video but for the folks that are now seeing you and want to get in it might be a little scared can you share what you've learned and what advice would you give what I recommend is start out slow start doing some stuff in programming don't immediately get into the harder sort of thing start with really simple applications and don't develop when you need to develop you want to essentially programming things randomly for example I learned Swift like pretty much entirely due to the fact that first of all I'm writing a book on it it's for iOS app developers for beginners and also because I would just program in stuff randomly I didn't wait for me to need to programming something or for if I wanted to make an iOS app in order program and something it's one thing I trained a prime number checker the mastery number generator stuff like that and so just randomly anything I sometimes you look really YouTube video on it to help people you could also use again any YouTube channel as sort of a place to learn programming and so use resource every developer has to pull those late nights and sometimes you to pup to pull an all-nighter have you pulled an all-nighter code he was doing it into the covers but also developers also struggle sometimes on a really hard problem and then the satisfaction of cracking the code or breaking through can you give us an example where you were pulling your hair out you were really focused on the problem you were kind of thrashing through it and you made it through this actually many I could give you but the one that I remember most is during a Stanley's development at first I was using the multi processing library in Python in order to send multiple queries to relationship extraction at once but then what happened I don't know whether it was a memory management issue or something but after let's say five queries the sixth one would be painfully slow then I tried out the threading library why not and so next after around 10 queries the 11th one will be painfully slow again I have no idea why then now this was a Python and so what I decided to do was maybe reprogram it for threading in Java and then have Python communicate with Java and so what I did is I learned job I the day because I hadn't ever touched that before because again once you wanted programming basics it's really easy to move to another language and flipped and python there actually slipped in general is quite similar to Java except Java a little bit simpler and so yeah I learned drama a day the next day I programmed in a simple release abstraction threading module made a jar out of it and let Python communicate with the jar and so after that the glitch was mostly fixed it was just Python not threading properly or you could never got through the problem I was not able to find out what the problem was but I mean yeah so what kind of machine do you run it's like driving this car multi-threading you got a lot of processes how many cores what kind of machine you have on the advance your local host 27-inch 5k Retina iMac with 64 gigs of ram and 4 cores I mean 8 yeah 4 cores than hyper-threaded 8 cores until I seven and that's good for you right now yeah you're happy with it how about any external in the cloud any obviously SSD I don't actually I do have a wood set of course but then I don't really host anything online yet because I don't have a need for it yet but then what I'm going to make a semi-public of course I'm going to need a quite a powerful server you know her too so the industry needs your help have you thought about rewriting the Linux kernel years ago I was I didn't really have anything to do so that's why I started YouTube but before that I actually I was really interested in the operating systems I coated my little own with a hello world operating system assembly which could run on I forgot the architecture it runs on but it was quite interesting for them again after that my youtube I started to take that more seriously and I didn't really have enough time to do that any projects you're working on now that excite you that you can share with us maybe solving the speed of light problem or actually mainly right now I've been working on a STEMI but I do have many other applications that I'm working on including an app that could help University students and developers with essentially it's an algorithm lookup if you'd like an algorithm that can help you do path finding for example you just put in a path finding as a tag and some other things and then it'll give you a charred I sort of algorithms and it uses the concept insights service and walks and I've also made a tweet classifier where you can say like let's say there's a hashtag on Twitter where there are two separate sort of things that you could talk about for example the hashtag Swift laying on Twitter at one Swift was open sourced it was there are two different types of people just talk about soup in general like nothing ever happened or they're talking about open sourcing let's say you wanted to see only news about Swift being open source well then you give Watson some examples of tweets that you like and sweets that you don't like and then eventually it would be able to tell you or give you tweets that the only way you like variation in Jinan yes exactly and it uses the natural language classifier service so talk about social media I mean here at your age and what you've been through and what you know technically you have a good visit understanding of operating systems coding and all the principles of computer science but as it gets more complicated with social media people are all connected what's your view of the future going to be I mean is it if algorithm's gonna solve the problem what do you think about the future how do you think about it ten years out well first of all the world needs more programmers and I think more sort of algorithms and natural language processing are the means were the topics that we're going to focus on later have you ever been a Silicon Valley not not in a developer capacity just sort of visiting it would you like to sort of visit there spend time with some of your your colleagues in the heart of development John's out there your idols Steve Jobs Tim Cook Bill Gates how about like from a software developer perspective any cult following people you love like the early guys coders any names that did pop to mind jobs he was a good product guy so if you can invent the product right now on the cube what would it be it would be mostly iron wrong sort of a QA system with almost a hundred percent accuracy that would be best in 98 we have a hologram right here we have guests interface with us that would be cool would you like to come to work for us and develop that we'd love to have you I like congratulate you on being the youngest ever cube alum we have this community of cube you know alumni and you are the youngest ever so congratulations fantastic a very impressive you know young man and really very summery quadrants break you to all and congratulations thank thanks come on the cute things are spending the time this is the cute bringing you all the action here ten may doing some great stuff he's very young very fluent understands thread and understands coding and this is the future you know born in born in code that's that that's the future developers and we hope to see more great software developers come on the market the day to the analytics of course Watson is right there with you along the way thanks for coming on the queue preciate we right back with more cube coverage here exclusive coverage at IBM interconnect 2016 I'm John for what Dave a lot they'd be right back
