from Yorktown Heights New York it's the queue coverings IBM cloud innovation be brought to you by IBM hi I'm Peter Burris and we have wrapped our the cubes coverage of IBM innovation day here at the Thomas J Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights now for anybody that's been in the industry for a while you know that this is one of the mecca's of the computing industry this is where an enormous number of innovations have taken place innovations about relating to semiconductor processes and you know CPU architectures innovations relating to middleware and innovations relating to database management and very importantly innovations relating to how customers and companies engage to be more successful with technology and in many respects that's really what's happening with the overall drive to cloud is to bring closer together that invention that takes place and pushes forward what technology can do and then a delivery model that's focused on ensuring the customers can actually more easily do it and IBM is absolutely part of that conversation we'll be going forward especially as we think about how those high-value legacy applications are going to be employed within a cloud context to further drive transaction capabilities with event capabilities in the cloud we've had some great conversations we've heard for example from Hilary hunter who's a CTO here at cloud infrastructure about the new role that opend plays within innovation how IBM is trying to further leverage that with the Red Hat acquisition we've had great conversations with Jason McGee talking about how the developer mindsets evolving in response to some new innovations with cloud we've heard from a number of other individuals I won't list them all but if I were trying to summarize the three points that I think kept coming through it's number one the cloud does force changes to the way you think about business problems and methods tooling and approaches for doing that are starting to mature very rapidly Micro services for an example for example is not just a technology it's also an approach to thinking about a problem and that informs everything I did the second thing that we've heard is that can't just talk about greenfield applications we've had this enormous investment in applications have been running businesses for a long time of those applications tend to be very stateful they tend to be very database driven they tend to be very operational in nature those applications have to move forward if nothing more from at least from a management standpoint how can we bring a management mindset an operating model of the cloud to start to channel or structure change and evolve how we manage those applications but ultimately bring new classes of services to those applications I think the last one that we've heard over and over and over it that this really is gonna require a strong community we have to take a community approach to invention you have to take a community approach to innovation and the social change is required to take advantage of technology and achieve the business outcomes that we want and if one thing has come through loud and clear through all the conversations is that that this year IBM think or I didn't think 2019 San Francisco is gonna be a great place to be able to get together with peers and have those conversations and think about the outcomes that enterprises want to achieve and then talk to people that can actually help you get there and one of the things that I find interesting about think this year is that the industry's changing we're seeing new rules or evolution of roles and an evolution of how those roles work together and think is actually starting to reflect that it's manifesting itself itself there's a couple of campuses one that's focused more on data and AI a very very natural binding or combining and one that's focused more on infrastructure and cloud again very natural so I hope to see be able to carry on and continue these conversations we've had today at IBM think and hope to see you there as well so once again this is Peter Burris Ricky bond the cube from the IBM from the from the illustrious from the vaunted Thomas J Watson Research Center in Yorktown Heights thanks very much for watching the cube today [Music]
