>>Mhm Welcome to the cubes coverage of HP discover 2021. I'm your host lisa martin. I've got a couple of guests with me here from emphasis. Alumni Yuma lacks empathy. Is back. Senior vice president and regional head of EMEA emphasis Yuma. It's great to see you welcome back to the program. >>Yeah. Hi Liza. It's great to be back for discover 2021. It's been a great opportunity to meet with health, a lot of our stakeholders and HP. >>Excellent. We're gonna dig into that. And so do Cutie is here as well. The Cto Cloud Advisory, VP hybrid cloud engineering platforms and automation at emphasis. Sergey Welcome to the program. >>Thank you lisa. It's a pleasure to be in the program is my first time but I really enjoy it. Well, >>Welcome. Welcome. So the next 15 minutes or so we're gonna unpack a survey that was just done as we know cloud has catalyzed a lot in the last year. One of those being cloud adoption. Talk to us about some of the things that you've seen as more and more enterprises are moving workloads to cloud. How is a hybrid cloud enabling businesses to grow, enabling them to actually have a competitive edge? >>Uh lisa if you uh if you look at the pre covid scenario and what there are many, many clients which actually made a significant move into cloud, but there were many few, a few of the companies who didn't really take a mature uh cloud adoption. But those companies which actually did the adoption, we see that have taken a big step with the help of the when the covid hit them because they were able to be very resilient. But at the same time they were able to the cloud adoption really help them to improve their business profits. Uh When we did this cloud radar survey across all the geography is we didn't get across the U. S. The latin, the issue pacific the EMEA markets. And when we looked at uh what our clients and enterprises were able to recover and get all of this whole cloud adoption. We've we've got a number of 414 billions of profits that the enterprises can make by using this cloud adoption. And that's what we saw in this survey that we did with our clients. >>Yeah, that's huge enterprises. The survey found can add up to you said 414 billion and that new profits annually through effective cloud adoption and sticking with you for a second. What does emphasis described as effective cloud adoption? >>When we look at cloud adoption, we have enterprises who started shifting workloads which are very comfortable for them. And then uh then they started to take the more mature understanding of moving workloads which were very critical to the business. So when we look at effective, it is a combination of both the ones that were very easy to go to the cloud, the ones that made business is able to bring in new applications and new go to markets uh to their segments to their clients. But then it is also about taking some of those legacy world clothes and making a choice the right choice to take it by transforming those applications and environments uh, into the cloud direction. And that's what we call us effective. It's just not the easy ones but also those complex and legacy rebuild ones that that effectively goes on to transform itself into a new way for the for their clients and for the experience of the users. >>It's a big changes coming, big opportunities. So as we see, we've talked about this for many times, more and more companies moving to multi cloud arrangements for a variety of reasons, what have been some of the things that emphasis has experienced and what are some of your viewpoints on a multi cloud? >>Thank you, lisa. So, um, if you look around >>right, you know, hybrid >>cloud has been the new normal. Right? And um, and if you look at it, private cloud is becoming an essential component for hosting applications. You know, uh you know, when you look at it, it's more about applications which have low latency requirements, it has regulatory requirements or it has a static demand of infrastructure. Now, what emphasis has done in this space is is that, you know, we have um we have developed a framework which we call it as a right cloud solution framework >>and this is >>focused on implementing a hybrid, multi cloud leveraging and in house developed tools and frameworks as well as platforms along with our strategic partner ecosystem, >>that is our biggest contribution >>onto the hybrid multi cloud world. Now, the foundation of our framework is emphasis public cloud platform. It's a unified multi cloud management platform. It can provision, it can orchestrate, it can also manage the cloud deployment across multiple of the environment. It can be a private, it can be public or it can be on the edge. >>Now, apart from all of these >>things, it also offers features and functionalities very similar to the hyper scholars and either it can be in terms of the user experience or it can be in a commercial model or a technology stack or it can be reports or it can be persona based user experience and integration with multiple systems. It brings all of these functionalities >>seamlessly >>across the >>multiple hybrid >>ecosystem protect. That's the biggest contribution from emphasis in this space. >>Got it. Okay. As we see the just clear growth of multi cloud in every industry. Talk to us about what the cloud radar survey uncovered with respective you've mentioned that big number, the correlation between cloud transformation and profitable growth for enterprises across any industry. >>So I did mention about it uh Liza in in the previous question as well. Then we looked at when we look at enterprises trying to take the cloud adoption. The big benefits for the enterprises do happen when they crossed that uh layer of moving a significant part of their existing legacy in a very transformed new world. And that brings in the new way of working for their customers, for their end users and internally as well for their various stakeholders. And that I think is creating a cost structure for them, which is very, very optimal from where they were. But at the same time, it is enabling their ecosystem of of users and customers to come and operate in a very seamless fashion. And that is the biggest advantage of uh boosting profits for them at the same time, cutting costs within the, within the internal stakeholders. So at one stage you're optimizing your cost at another stage, you're bringing in a easiness for your clients to operate on, which is actually creating that enlarged profit boost. >>We're sticking with you for a second. If we unpack that growth, that business profit growth opportunity that the survey uncovered, Are we talking about things like faster time to market, increasing scale? What are some of the things underneath that hood? >>So, if you if you look at uh traditionally cloud was considered uh the enabler for quick, faster time to market. But now cloud has become the central theme for resilience. If you look at the covid pandemic, uh, those, those enterprises which were already cloud enabled, we're able to resiliently and sustain their business and grow their businesses. So as economy started opening up, if I can talk about an automotive client who is today enriching businesses out of china because they have the first economy that has opened up after the pandemic. So you see a lot of enablement for those enterprises which have already taken the cloud journey. And if you look at Today enterprises are in somewhere around 17-18% of of cloud adopt mint and if they can take that to the 40%, that's when they will see that kind of boosted profits. And we can clearly see about $400 plus billion dollars of profits that enterprises can make. >>All right, so let's talk to you for a second. If we look at some of the survey results, the acceleration that is expected to be seen by in the next year of enterprises moving so many more workloads to cloud. You talked about hybrid cloud. Talk to me about how the experience of working with HP in creating joint solution suites is going to help the customers facilitate and drive that transformation. >>Thank you lisa. So if you look at H P E, H P E comes with a fine set of technology and commercial constructs, you know, that complements our right cloud framework >>and they offer >>the solutions. The whole sort of a lot of solutions offer private cloud as a service which is a major component of our right club framework. >>Either it is a >>continuous service with HP is as ephemeral data platform on HP hardware, or >>Vida as a >>service based on a compose Herbal and Converse infrastructure or H P. S cloud built on >>HPC cloud, build on Cray systems >>and all of them commercially supported with an H. P. S. Green leg offering makes it very attractive for our customers. Now, these integrations have helped us in providing a >>very similar >>metering and billing along with the chargeback solutions, very much in line with what is being provided by Hyper scholars. Apart from this, we >>also work very closely with >>H P E >>to create a >>very compelling sourcing strategy for driving hybrid, cloud driven digital transformation while taking cost out and protecting the existing investments through various financial models for our customers, helping them in terms of transforming their digital estate in the, in the new cloud world. >>And um, I want to get your perspective as well, the HP emphasis partnership talk to me about that being a win win for your clients in every industry. >>So actually uh Liza is a great question and this probably is my third uh cube interview and I've told this previously as well in my previous interviews as well. The relationship between emphasis and hedge P. Is very very strategy and it's it's very very top down driven. And today we've seen very high transformative opportunities that two organizations have come together and we won't call it win win but we call it a win win win which is essentially win for HP win for emphasis but even for the clients as well. So if you look at some of the engagements that we have jointly done, everything has been transformative. I can talk about uh energy client where we've done a huge which will V. D. I. Uh engagement with them where we have been able to take them very uh seamlessly when the covid pandemic hit them so that there are significant part of their right to users but be able to operate from their residences. Uh I can talk about a great story about how we had enabled Green Lake for a wind energy company. Uh and how that Green Lake capability help the customer to migrate the application seamlessly uh to a hybrid cloud. And there are so many examples of similar scale and size when we look at clients in the manufacturing space and the automobile sector where we've really done work very closely with PHP across all regions and all geography is uh to make this what I would call when when very partnership. >>I like that when when when who wouldn't want that one more question for you. Talk to me about the next, as we talked about some of those survey results and I think folks can find that survey, the cloud radar survey on the emphasis dot com website. I found it on the homepage there. But looking at how much Transformation is expected in the next 12 months or so, what are some of the things that we can expect from emphasis on H. P. E. to help drive and catalyze that growth that you expect to see in the next 12 months? >>Yeah. And I was talking to you before this interview and you said that yes, we gotta look at this. And I was feeling very happy that you have the opportunity to look at the side. And you said that look there's an opportunity to also make to continuously provide feedback. And we're very happy for clients to come in and look at it and do provide us the feedback. This is a constant learning for us. We have a big learning company Uh and when it comes to uh the next 12 months of agenda, I think the pipeline is very robust for both us and the hp. In terms of the way we want to take proactive transformational opportunities to the to our clients create a value differentiation on the hybrid cloud for them. And uh clearly uh this this survey clearly came back to reflect back to us that our strategy that we've done together as partners is the right strategy because there is a significant headroom for growth uh in the cloud space for both emphasis and H. B. >>Excellent. Well gentlemen, thank you for joining me today, talking to me about what emphasis and HP are doing together, unpacking some of the significant insights that the cloud radar survey has uncovered. We appreciate your time. >>Thank you lisa. Thank you. Thank you for giving us this >>opportunity. Absolutely. For election. Saw ju I'm lisa martin. You're watching the cubes coverage of HP discover 2021. Yeah. Mhm. Yeah.

You're watching the cubes coverage of HP discover 2021. Yeah, yeah.

(upbeat music) >> Welcome to theCUBE's coverage of HPE Discover 2021. I'm your host, Lisa Martin. I've got a couple of guests with me here from Infosys. Alumni Uma Lakshmipathy is back, Senior Vice President and Regional Head of EMEA at Infosys. Uma, it's great to see you welcome back to the program. >> Yeah. Hi Lisa. It's great to be back for Discover 2021. It's been a great opportunity to meet with a lot of stakeholders in HPE. >> Excellent. We're going to dig into that. And Saju Sankarankutty is here as well. The CTO, Cloud Advisory, VP-Hybrid Cloud Engineering, Platforms and Automation at Infosys. Saju, welcome to the program. >> Thank you, Lisa. It's a pleasure to be in the program. It is my first time, but I really enjoyed it as well. >> Well, welcome, welcome. So the next 15 minutes or so, we're going to unpack a survey that was just done. As we know, cloud has catalyzed a lot in the last year. One of those being cloud adoption. Talk to us about some of the things that you've seen as more and more enterprises are moving workloads to cloud. How is the hybrid cloud enabling businesses to grow, enabling them to actually have a competitive edge? >> Lisa, if you look at the pre-COVID scenario, there are many, many clients which actually made a significant move into cloud, but there were many few of the companies who didn't really take a mature cloud adoption. But those companies which actually did the adoption, we see that have taken a big step with the help of the, when the COVID hit them because they were able to be very resilient, but at the same time, they were able to, the cloud adoption really helped them to improve their business profits. When we did this cloud radar survey across all the geographies, we did it across the US, the Latin, the Asia Pacific, the EMEA markets, and when we looked at what our clients and enterprises were able to recover and get all of this whole cloud adoption, we got a number of 414 billions of profits that the enterprises can make by using this cloud adoption. And that's what we saw in this survey that we did with our clients. >> Yeah, that's huge enterprises. The survey found can add up to, you said 414 billion and net new profits annually through effective cloud adoption. Uma, sticking with you for a second, what does Infosys describe as effective cloud adoption? >> When we look at cloud adoption, we have enterprises who started shifting workloads, which are very comfortable for them. And then they started to take the more mature understanding of moving workloads, which are very critical to the business. So when we look at effective, it is a combination of both. The ones that were very easy to go to the cloud. The ones that made businesses able to bring in new applications, the new go-to markets to their segments, to their clients. But then, it is also about taking some of those legacy workloads and making a choice, the right choice to take it by transforming those applications and environments into the cloud adoption. And that's what we call as effective. It's just not the easy ones, but also those are complex and legacy riddled ones that effectively goes on to transform itself into a new way for their clients and for the experience of the users. >> So big changes coming big opportunities. Saju, we see we've talked about this for many times, more and more companies moving to multicloud arrangements for a variety of reasons. What have been some of the things that Infosys has experienced and what are some of your viewpoints on a multicloud? >> Thank you, Lisa. So if you look around, hybrid cloud has been the new normal and if you look at it, private cloud is becoming an essential component for hosting applications. When you look at it, it's more about applications which have low latency requirements, it has regulatory requirements, or it has a static demand of infrastructure. Now, what Infosys has done in this spaces is that we have developed a framework which we call it as a right cloud solution framework. And this is focused on implementing a hybrid multicloud leveraging and in-house developed tools and frameworks as well as platforms along with those strategic partner ecosystem. That is our biggest contribution onto the hybrid multicloud world. Now, the foundation of our framework is Infosys polycloud platform. It's a unified multicloud management platform. It can provision, it can orchestrate, it can also manage the cloud deployment across multiple of the environments. It can be a private, it can be a public, or it can be on the edge. Now, apart from all of these things, it also offers features and functionalities very similar to the hyperscalers. And either it can be in terms of the user experience or it can be in a commercial model or a technology stack or it can be reports or it can be persona based user experience and integration with multiple systems, it brings all of these functionalities seamlessly across the multiple hybrid ecosystem. That's the biggest contribution from Infosys in this space. >> Got it. Okay. Uma, as we see the, just clear growth of multicloud in every industry, talk to us about what the cloud radar survey uncovered with prospective? You've mentioned that big number, the correlation between cloud transformation and profitable growth for enterprises across any industry. >> So I did mention about that Lisa in the previous question as well. When we look at enterprises trying to take the cloud adoption, the big benefits for the enterprises do happen when they cross that layer of moving a significant part of their existing legacy in a very transformed new world. And that brings in the new way of working for the customers, for their end users and internally as well for the various stakeholders. And that I think is creating a cost structure for them, which is very, very optimal from where they were. But at the same time, it is enabling their ecosystem of users and customers to come and operate in a very seamless fashion. And that is the biggest advantage of boosting profits for them at the same time cutting costs within the internal stakeholders. So at one stage, you're optimizing your cost. At the other stage, you're bringing in an easiness for your clients to operate on, which is actually creating that enlarged profit boost. >> Uma, sticking with you for a second. If we unpack that growth, that business profit growth opportunity that the survey uncovered, are we talking about things like faster time to market, increasing scale? What are some of the things underneath that hood? >> So if you look at traditionally, cloud was considered the enabler for quick faster time to market, but now a cloud has become the central theme for resilience. If you look at the COVID pandemic, those enterprises which were already cloud enabled were able to resiliently and sustain their business and grow their businesses. So as the economy started opening up, if I can talk about an automotive client who is today enriching businesses out of China because they have the first economy that has opened up after the pandemic. So you see a lot of enablement for those enterprises which have already taken the cloud journey. And if you look at today, enterprises are in somewhere around 17 to 18% of cloud adoption. And if they can take that to the 40%, that's when they will see that kind of boosted profits and we can clearly see about 400 plus billion dollars of profits that enterprises can make. >> All right. Saju, let's talk to you for a second. If we look at some of the survey results, the acceleration that is expected to be seen by in the next year of enterprises moving so many more workloads to cloud. You talked about hybrid cloud, talk to me about how the experience of working with HPE and creating joint solution suites is going to help the customers facilitate and drive that transformation. >> Thank you, Lisa. So if you look at HPE, HPE comes with a fine set of technology and commercial constructs that complements our right cloud framework and they offer the solution, the whole sort of lot of solutions offer private cloud as a service, which is a major component of our right cloud framework. Either it is a container as a service with HPE's ezmeral data platform on HP hardware or VDA as a service based on a composable and conversed infrastructure or HPC cloud build on great systems and all of them commercially supported with an HPE GreenLake offering makes it very attractive for our customers. Now, these integrations have helped us in providing a very seamless metering and billing along with the chargeback solutions very much in line with what is being provided by hyperscalers. Apart from this, we also work very closely with HPE to create a very compelling sourcing strategy for driving hybrid cloud driven digital transformation while taking costs out and protecting the existing investments through various financial models for our customers helping them in terms of transforming their digital estate in the new cloud world. >> And Uma, I want to get your perspective as well, the HPE Infosys partnership. Talk to me about that being a win-win for your clients in every industry. >> So actually Lisa, it's a great question. And this probably is my third CUBE interview. And I've told this previously as well in my previous interviews as well. The relationship between Infosys and HPE is very, very strategic And it's very, very top down driven. And today, we've seen very high transformative opportunities that two organizations have come together and we won't call it win-win, but we call it win-win-win, which is essentially a win for HPE, win for Infosys, but even for the clients as well. So if you look at some of the engagements that we've jointly done, everything has been transformative. I can talk about energy client where we've done a huge virtual VDI engagement with them where we have been able to dig them very seamlessly when the COVID pandemic hit them. So then they're a significant part of their IT users, but being able to operate from their residences. I can talk about a great story about how we had enabled GreenLake for a wind energy company and how that GreenLake capability helped the customer to migrate the application seamlessly to a hybrid cloud. And there are so many examples of similar scale and size when we look at clients in the manufacturing space and the automobile sector where we really done a work very closely with HPE across all regions and all geographies to make this what I would call a win-win-win partnership. >> I like that, win-win-win. Who wouldn't want that? One more question, Uma for you. Talk to me about the next, as we talked about some of those survey results and I think folks can find that survey, the cloud radar survey on the infosys.com website. I found it on the homepage there. But looking at how much transformation is expected in the next 12 months or so, what are some of the things that we can expect from Infosys and HPE to help drive and catalyze that growth that you expect to see in the next 12 months? >> Yeah. And I was talking to you before this interview and you said that yes, we are to look at this. And I was feeling very happy that you had the opportunity to look at the site. And you said that, look, there's an opportunity to also make, to continuously provide feedback and we're very happy for clients to come in and look at it and do provide us the feedback. This is a constant learning for us. We are a big learning company. And when it comes to the next 12 months of agenda, I think the pipeline is very robust for both us and the HPE in terms of the way we want to take proactive transformational opportunities to our clients. Create a value differentiation on the hybrid cloud for them and clearly, this survey clearly came back to reflect back to us that our strategy that we've done together as partners is the right strategy because there is a significant headroom for growth in the cloud space for both Infosys and HPE. >> Excellent. Well, gentlemen, thank you for joining me today talking to me about what Infosys and HPE are doing together, unpacking some of the significant insights that the cloud radar survey has uncovered. We appreciate your time. >> Thank you, Lisa. Thank you. Thank you for giving us this opportunity. >> Absolutely. For Uma and Saju >> Thank you, Lisa. I'm Lisa Martin, you're watching theCUBEs coverage of HPE Discover 2021. (bright music)

>> from Burlingame, California It's the Cube covering Suma logic Illuminate 2019. Brought to You by Sumer Logic. >> Hey, welcome back, everybody. Jeffrey here with the Cube worth, assume a logic illuminate 2019 of it. It's at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco airport. About 809 100 people are second year. It's a 30 year of the event, excited to be here and watch it grow. We've seen a bunch of these things grow from little to bigger over a number of years, and it's always funded kind of beer for the zenith. We're excited to do it by our next guest. She's an analyst. It's Nancy Goering, senior analyst for 4 51 research. Nancy, great to see you. >> Thank you for having me. >> Absolutely so first off, Just kind of impressions of the event here. >> Yeah, good stuff. You know, like he's definitely trying to, you know, get on top of some of the big trends. You know, The big news here was their new Cooper nineties monitoring, also obviously kind of staying on the the leading edge of the cloud. Native Technologies. >> It's it's amazing how fast it's growing, you know, doing some research for this. Then I found some of your stuff out on the Internet and just one quote. I think it's from years ago, but just for people to kind of understand the scale, I think, he said, Google was launching four billion containers a week. Twitter had 12,000. Service is uber 4000. Micro service is Yelp and Justin 25 million data points per minute. I think this is like a two or three year old presentation. I mean, the scale in which the data is moving is astronomical. >> Yeah, well, I mean, if you think of Google launching four billion containers every week, they're collecting a number of different data points about a container spinning up about the operation of that container while it's alive about the container spinning down. So it's not even just four billion pieces of data. It's, you know, multiply that by 10 20 or many more. So, yeah, So the volume of operations dated that people are faced with is just, you know, out of this world, and some of that is beginning to get abstracted away, terms of what you need to look at. So, you know, Kubernetes is an orchestration engine so that's helping move things around. You still need to collect that data to inform automation tools, right? So even if you was, even if humans aren't really looking at it, it's being used to drive automation, right? It still has to be collected, >> right, And they're still configurations and settings and and dials. And it seems like a lot of the breaches that we hear about today are people just miss configuring something on us. It's human error. And so how do we kind of square the circle? Because the date is only growing. The quantity sources, the complexity, Yeah, the lack of structure. And that's before we had a I ot And now we got edge devices and they're all reporting in from from home. Yeah, crazy problem. It's >> really, I think, driving a lot of the investments in the focus and more sophisticated analytics, right? So that's why you're hearing a lot more about machine learning. And a I in this space is because humans can't just look at that huge volume >> of data and >> figure out what it means. So the development of machine learning tools, for instance, is gonna pull out a piece of data that's important. Here is the anomaly. This is the thing you should be paying attention to. Andi, obviously getting increasingly sophisticated, right? In terms of correlating data from different parts of your infrastructure in order to yet make sense of it, >> right? And then, Oh, by the way, they're all made up of micro service is a literal interconnected in AP eyes. The third party providers. Yeah. I mean, the complexity is ridicu >> and then, you know, and I've been actually thinking and talking a lot recently about organizational issues within companies that exacerbate some of these challenges. So you mentioned Micro Service is so ah, lot of times, you know, you've got Dev ops groups and an individual Dev Ops group is responsible for a or multiple. Micro service is right. They're all running, sort of autonomous. They're doing their own thing, right? So they could move quickly. But is there anybody overseeing the application that's made up of maybe 1000 Micro Service's? And in some cases, the answer is no. And so it may look like all the Micro Service's are operating well, but the user experience actually is not good, and no one really notices until the user starts complaining. So it's like things start. You know, you have to think about organizational things. Who's responsible for that, right? You know, if you're on a Dev ops team and your job has been to support the certain service's and not the whole, like who's responsible for the whole application and that's it's a challenge, it's something. Actually, in our surveys, we're hearing from people that they're looking for people that skill set, someone who understands how to look at Micro Service's as they work together to deliver a service, right? It's it's a It's a pain point. Shouldn't >> the project the product manager for that application would hopefully have some instances abilities to kind of what they're trying to optimize for? >> In some cases, they're not technical enough, right? A product manager doesn't necessarily have the depth to know that, or they're not used to using the types of tools that the Dev Ops team or the operations team would use to track the performance of an application. So sometimes it's just a matter of having the right tooling in front of them, >> and then even the performance I was like What do you optimizing four you optimized for security up the mind thing for speed are optimizing for yeah, you can optimize for everything if you got a stack rank order at some point in time. So that would also then drive in a different prioritization or the way that you look at those doctorsservices performance. Yeah, interesting. It's another big topic that comes up often is the vision of a single pane of glass in You know, I can't help but think is in my work day. You know how often I'm tabbing between, you know, sales force and email and slack and asana and, um, a couple of browsers air open. I mean, it's it's it's bananas, you know, it's no longer just that that email is the only thing that's open on my desk all day and only imagine the Dev Ops world. No, we saw just crazy complexity around again, managing all the micro service's of the AP eyes. So what's kind of the story? What are you seeing in kind of the development of that? And there's so many vendors now, and so many service is yeah, it's not just we're just gonna put in HB open view, and that's the standard, and that's what we're all right on. >> So if you're looking at it from the lens of of monitoring or observe ability or performance. Traditionally, you had different tools that looked at, say, different layers of a service, so you had a tool that was looking at infrastructure. Was your infrastructure monitoring tool. You had an application performance monitoring tool. You might have a network performance monitoring tool. You might have point tools that are looking just at the data base layer. But as things get more complicated, Azadliq ations are getting much more complex. Looking at that data in a silo tool tends to obscure the bigger picture. You don't understand when you're looking at the's separate tools how some piece of infrastructure might be impacting the application, for instance. And so the idea is to bring all of that operations data about the performance of an application in tow. One spot where you can run again, these more sophisticated analytics so that you can understand the relationship between the different layers of the application stack also horizontally, right? So how micro service's that are dependent on each other? How one micro service might be impacting the performance of another. So that's conceptually the idea behind having a single pane of glass. Now the execution can happen in a bunch of different ways, so you can have one vendor. There are vendors that are growing horizontally, so they're collecting data across the stack. And there's other vendors that are positioning themselves as that sort of central data repositories, so they may not directly collect all of that data. But they might in just some data that another monitoring vendor has collected. So there's an end. You know, there's there's always going to be good arguments for best of breed tools, right? So, you know, in most cases, businesses are not going to settle on just one monitoring tool that does it all. But that's conceptually the reason, right, and you want to bring all of this data together. However you get it, however, it's being collected so that you can analyze it and understand that big picture performance of a complicated application, >> right? But then, even then, as you said, you don't even want, you're not really monitoring the application performance per se. You're just waiting for the you're waiting for some of those needles to fall out of the haystack because you just you just can't get that much stuff. And you know, it's where do you focus your priority? You know what's most critical? What needs attention now. And if without a machine to help kind of point you in the right direction, you're gonna have a hard time finding that needle. >> And there's a lot of different approaches that are beginning to develop. So one is this idea of SL owes or service level objectives. And so, for instance, a really common service level objective that teams are looking at is Leighton. See, So this Leighton see of the service should never drop under whatever ah 100 milliseconds. And and if it does, I want to be alerted. And also if it drops below that objective for a certain amount of time, that can actually help you as a team. Allocate, resource is so if you're not living up to that service level objective, maybe you should shift some people's time toe working on improving the application instead of developing a new feature, right? So it can really help you prioritize your time because you know what? There was a time when people in operations teams or Dev. Ops teams had a really hard time, and they still d'oh figuring out which problems are important because you've always people always have a lot of performance problems going on. So which do you focus your time on? And it's been pretty opaque. It's hard to see. Is this performance impacting the bottom line of my business? Is this impacting? You know, my customers? Are we losing business over this? Like that's That's a really common question that people I can't answer, right? So there you people are beginning to develop these approaches to try to figure out how to prioritize work on performance problems. It's >> interesting because the other one that and some of you mentioned before is kind of this post incident review instead of a post boredom. And, you know, you talked about culture and words matter, and I think that's a really interesting take because it's it's it implies we're gonna learn, and we're gonna go forward. It's dead. Um, yeah, you know, we're gonna yell at each other and someone's gonna get blamed. That's exactly it. And we're going to move on. So, you know, how is that kind of evolved in. And how does that really help organizations do a better job? >> There's, I mean, there's there's much more of a focus on setting aside time to do that kind of analysis, right? So look at how we're performing as a team. Look at how we responded to an incident so that you can find ways that you can do better next time and some of that Israel tactical right? It's tweaking alerts. Did we not get an alert? You know, did we not even know this problem was happening? So maybe you build new alerts or sport get rid of a bunch of alerts that did nothing. You know, there's there's a lot you can learn on again to To your point, I think part of the reason people have started calling in a post Incident review instead of a postmortem is because yet you don't want that to be a session where people are feeling like Blaine. You know, this is my fault. I screwed up. I spent way too long on this, so I >> had to >> set things out properly. It's it's meant to be productive. Let's find the weak points and fill them right. Fill those gaps. >> It's funny you had another. There's another thing I found where you were talking about not not necessarily the Post Borden, but you know, people, people being much more proactive, much more, you know, thoughtful as to how they are going to take care of these things. And it is really more of a social cultural change unnecessarily. The technical piece that culture pieces. So so >> it is and especially, you know, right now there's a lot of focus on on tooling and that can cause some, you know, interesting issues. So, you know, especially in an organization that has really adopted Dev ops practices like the idea of a Dev Ops team is that it's very autonomous. They do what they do, what they need to do right to move fast and to get the job done. And that often includes choosing your own tools, but that that has created a number of problems, especially in monitoring. So if you have 100 Dev ops teams and they all have chosen their own, monitoring tools like this is not efficient, so it's not. It's not a good idea because those tools aren't talking to each other, even though they're micro service's that are dependent on each other. It's inefficient. From a business perspective. You've got all these relationships with vendors, and in some cases, with a single vendor, you might have 50 instances of the same monitoring tool that you know you have 50 accounts with them, like that's just totally inefficient. And then you've got people on a Dev ops, an individual, all the all the individual Dev ops teams have a person who's supposed to be the resident expert in these tools, like maybe you should share that knowledge across. But my point is, you get into the situation where you have hundreds of monitoring tools, sometimes 40 50 monitoring tools. You realize that's a problem. How do you address that problem? Because you're gonna have to go out and tell people you can't use this tool that you love. That helps you do your job that you chose. And so again, this whole cultural question comes out like, How do you manage that transition in a way that's gonna be productive? >> Thea other one that you brought up that was interesting is where the the sport team basically tells the business team you only have X number of incidents. We're gonna give you a budget. Yeah, exceed the budget. We're not going to help you. It's a really different way to think about prioritization. I >> don't necessarily think that's a great approach, but I mean, there was somebody who did that, but I think it's kind of it's kind of >> an interesting thing. And you talked about it in that. I think it was one of your presentations or speeches where, you know, it makes you kind of rethink. You know, why do we have so many incidents? Yeah, and there shouldn't be that many incidents, and maybe some of the responsibility should be shifted to think about why in the how and is more of a systemic problem than a feature problem or a bug, right? It's a broken code. So again, I think there's so many kind of cultural opportunities to rethink this. In a world of continuous development, continuous publishing and continuous pushing out of new code. Yeah, yeah, sure. All right. Nancy will. Thanks for taking a few minutes, and it's really great to talk to you. Thanks >> for having me. >> Alright. She's Nancy. I'm Jeff. You're watching the Cube where it's Uma Logic illuminate 2019. Thanks for watching. We'll see next time

>> Hey, welcome back everybody. Jeff Frigg here with theCUBE. We're at Data Privacy Day 2018 here at Linked-In's brand new, downtown San Francisco headquarters not in Sunny Vale. And we're excited to be here for the second time. And we've got Eve Maylar back she's a VP in innovation and emerging tech at Forge Rock, we caught up last year, so great to see you. >> Likewise. >> So what's different in 2018 than 2017? >> Well GDPR, the general data protection regulation Well, also we didn't talk about it much here today, but the payment services directive version two is on the lips of everybody in the EU who's in financial services, along with open banking, and all these regulations are actually as much about digital transformation, I've been starting to say hashtag digital transformation, as they are about regulating data protection and privacy, so that's big. >> So why aren't those other two being talked about here do you think? >> To a certain extent they are for the global banks and the multinational banks and they have as much impact on things like user consent as GDPR does, so that's a big thing. >> Jeff: Same penalties? >> They do have some penalties, but they are as much about, okay, I'm starting to say hashtag in front of all these cliches, but you know they are as much about trying to do the digital single market as GDPR is, so what they're trying to do is have a level playing field for all those players. So the way that GDPR is trying to make sure that all of the countries have the same kind of regulations to apply so that they can get to the business of doing business. >> Right, right, and so it's the same thing trying to have this kind of unified platform. >> Yup, absolutely, and so that affects companies here if they play in that market as well. >> So there's a lot of talk on this security site when you go to these security conferences about baking security in everywhere, right? It can't be OL guard anymore, there is no such thing as keeping the bad guys out, it's more all the places you need to bake in security, and so you're talking about that really needs to be on the privacy side as well, it needs to go hand-in-hand, not be counter to innovation. >> Yes, it is not a zero sum game, it should be a positive sum game in fact, GDPR would call it data protection by design and by default. And so, you have to bake it in, and I think the best way to bake it in is to see this as an opportunity to do better business with your customers, your consumers, your patients, your citizens, your students, and the way to do that is to actually go for a trust mark instead of, I shouldn't say a trust mark, but go for building trusted digital relationships with all those people instead of just saying "Well I'm going to go for compliance" and then say " Well I'm sorry if you didn't feel that action "on my part was correct" >> Well hopefully it's more successful than we've seen on the security side right? Because data breaches are happening constantly, no one is immune and I don't know, we're almost kind of getting immune to it. I mean Yahoo's it was their entire database of however many billions of people, and some will say it's not even when you get caught it's more about how you react, when you do get caught both from a PR perspective, as well as mending faith like the old Tylenol issue back in the day, so, on the privacy side do you expect that to be the same? Are these regulations in such a way where it's relatively easy to implement so we won't have kind of this never ending breach problem on the security side, or is it going to be kind of the same. >> I think I just made a face when you said easy, the word easy okay. >> Not easy but actually doable, 'cause sometimes it feels like some of the security stuff again on the breaches specifically, yeah it seems like it should be doable, but man oh man we just hear over and over again on the headlines that people are getting compromised. >> Yeah people are getting compromised and I think they are sort of getting immune to the stories when it's a security breach. We try to do at my company at Forge Rock we're identities so I have this identity lens that I see everything through, and I think especially in the internet of things which we've talked about in the past there's a recognition that digital identity is a way that you can start to attack security and privacy problems, because if you want to, for example, save off somebody's consent to let information about them flow, you need to have a persistent storage that they did consent, you need to have persistent storage of the information about them, and if they want to withdraw consent which is a thing like GDPR requires you to be able to do, and prove that they're able to do, you need to have a persistent storage of their digital identity. So identity is actually a solution to the problem, and what you want to do is have an identity and access management solution that actually reduces the friction to solving those problems so it's basically a way to have consent life cycle management if you will and have that solution be able to solve your problems of security and privacy. >> And to come at it from the identity point of view versus coming at it from the data point of view. >> That's right, and especially when it comes to internet of things, but not even just internet of things, you're starting to need to authenticate and identity everything; services, applications, piles of data, and smart devices, and people, and keep track of the relationships among them. >> We just like to say people are things too so you can always include the people in the IT conversation. But it is pretty interesting the identity task 'cause we see that more and more, security companies coming at the problem from an identity problem because now you can test the identity against applications, against data, against usage, change what's available, not available to them, versus trying to build that big wall. >> Yes, there's no perimeters anymore. >> Unless you go to China and walk the old great wall. >> Yes you're taking your burner devices with you aren't you? (laughs) >> Yes. >> Good, good to hear >> Yeah but it's a very different way to attack the problem from an identity point of view. >> Yeah, and one of the interesting things actually about PSD2 and this open banking mandate, and I was talking about they want to get digital business to be more attractive, is that they're demanding strong customer authentication, SCA they call it, and so I think we're going to see, I think we talked about passwords last time we met, less reliance. >> Jeff: And I still have them and I still can't remember them. >> Well you know, less reliance on passwords either is the only factor or sometimes a factor, and more sophisticated authentication that has less impact, well less negative impact on your life, and so I'm kind of hopeful that they're getting it, and these things are rolling up faster than GDPR, so I think those are kind of easier. They're aware of the API economy, they get it. They get all the standards that are needed. >> 'Cause the API especially when you get the thing to thing and you got multi steps and everything is depending on the connectivity upstream, you've got some significant issues if you throw a big wrench into there. But it's interesting to see how the two factor authentication is slowly working its way into more and more applications, and using a phone now without the old RSA key on the keychain, what a game changer that is. >> Yeah I think we're getting there. Nice to hear something's improving right? >> There you go. So as you look forward to 2018 what are some of your priorities, what are we going to be talking about a year from now do you think? >> Well I'm working on this really interesting project, this is in the UK, it has to do with Affintech, the UK has a mandate that it's calling the Pensions Dashboard Project, and I think that this has got a great analogy in the US, we have 401ks. They did a study there where they say the average person has 11 jobs over their lifetime and they leave behind some, what they call pension pots, so that would be like our 401ks, and this Pensions Dashboard Project is a way for people to find all of their left behind pension pots, and we talked last year about the technology that I've worked on called user managed access, UMA, which is a way where you can kind of have a standardized version of that Google Docs share button where you're in control of how much you share with somebody else, well they're using UMA to actually manage this pension finder service, so you give access first of all, to yourself, so you can get this aggregated dashboard view of all your pensions, and then you can share, one pension pot, you know one account, or more, with financial advisors selectively, and get advice on how to spend your newly found money. It's pretty awesome and it's an Affintech use case. >> How much unclaimed pension pot money, that must just be. >> In the country, in the UK, apparently it's billions upon billions, so imagine in the US, I mean it's probably a trillion dollars. I'm not sure, but it's a lot. We should do something here, I'm wondering how much money I have left behind. >> All right check your pension pot, that's the message from today's interview. All right Eve, well thanks for taking a few minutes, and again really interesting space and you guys are right at the forefront, so exciting times. >> It's a pleasure. >> All right she's Eve Maylar I'm Jeff Frigg you're watching theCUBE from Data Privacy Day 2018, thanks for watching, catch you next time.
