>>Hey guys. Welcome back to the Cubes coverage of Ansible Fast 2022. This is day two of our wall to wall coverage. Lisa Martin here with John Ferer. John, we're seeing this world where companies are saying if we can't automate it, we need to, The automation market is transforming. There's been a lot of buzz about that. A lot of technical chops here at Ansible Fest. >>Yeah, I mean, we've got a great guest here coming on Cuba alumni, Dean Newman, future room. He travels every event he's got. He's got his nose to the grindstone ear to the ground. Great analysis. I mean, we're gonna get into why it's important. How does Ansible fit into the big picture? It's really gonna be a great segment. The >>Board do it well, John just did my job for me about, I'll introduce him again. Daniel Newman, one of our alumni is Back Principal Analyst at Future and Research. Great to have you back on the cube. >>Yeah, it's good to join you. Excited to be back in Chicago. I don't know if you guys knew this, but for 40 years, this was my hometown. Now I don't necessarily brag about that anymore. I'm, I live in Austin now. I'm a proud Texan, but I did grow up here actually out in the west suburbs. I got off the plane, I felt the cold air, and I almost turned around and said, Does this thing go back? Yeah. Cause I'm, I've, I've grown thin skin. It did not take me long. I, I like the warm, Come on, >>I'm the saying, I'm from California and I got off the plane Monday. I went, Whoa, I need a coat. And I was in Miami a week ago and it was 85. >>Oh goodness. >>Crazy. So you just flew in. Talk about what's going on, your take on, on Ansible. We've talked a lot with the community, with partners, with customers, a lot of momentum. The flywheel of the community is going around and round and round. What are some of your perspectives that you see? >>Yeah, absolutely. Well, let's you know, I'm gonna take a quick step back. We're entering an era where companies are gonna have to figure out how to do more with less. Okay? We've got exponential data growth, we've got more architectural complexity than ever before. Companies are trying to discern how to deal with many different environments. And just at a macro level, Red Hat is one of the companies that is almost certainly gonna be part of this multi-cloud hybrid cloud era. So that should initially give a lot of confidence to the buying group that are looking at how to automate their environments. You're automating workflows, but really with, with Ansible, we're focused on automating it, automating the network. So as companies are kind of dig out, we're entering this recessionary period, Okay, we're gonna call it what it is. The first thing that they're gonna look at is how do we tech our way out of it? >>I had a wonderful one-on-one conversation with ServiceNow ceo, Bill McDermott, and we saw ServiceNow was in focus this morning in the initial opening session. This is the integration, right? Ansible integrating with ServiceNow. What we need to see is infrastructure automation, layers and applications working in concert to basically enable enterprises to be up and running all the time. Let's first fix the problems that are most common. Let's, let's automate 'em, let's script them. And then at some point, let's have them self resolving, which we saw at the end with Project Wisdom. So as I see it, automation is that layer that enterprises, boards, technologists, all can agree upon are basically here's something that can make our business more efficient, more profitable, and it's gonna deal with this short term downturn in a way that tech is actually gonna be the answer. Just like Bill and I said, let's tech our way out of it. >>If you look at the Red Hat being bought by ibm, you see Project Wisdom Project, not a product, it's a project. Project Wisdom is the confluence of research and practitioners kind of coming together with ai. So bringing AI power to the Ansible is interesting. Red Hat, Linux, Rel OpenShift, I mean, Red Hat's kind of position, isn't it? Kind of be in that right spot where a puck might be coming maybe. I mean, what do you think? >>Yeah, as analysts, we're really good at predicting the, the recent past. It's a joke I always like to make, but Red Hat's been building toward the future. I think for some time. Project Wisdom, first of all, I was very encouraged with it. One of the things that many people in the market probably have commented on is how close is IBM in Red Hat? Now, again, it's a $34 billion acquisition that was made, but boy, the cultures of these two companies couldn't be more different. And of course, Red Hat kind of carries this, this sort of middle ground layer where they provide a lot of value in services to companies that maybe don't use IBM at, at, for the public cloud especially. This was a great indication of how you can take the power of IBM's research, which of course has some of the world's most prolific data scientists, engineers, building things for the future. >>You know, you see things like yesterday they launched a, you know, an AI solution. You know, they're building chips, semiconductors, and technologies that are gonna power the future. They're building quantum. Long story short, they have these really brilliant technologists here that could be adding value to Red Hat. And I don't know that the, the world has fully been able to appreciate that. So when, when they got on stage and they kind of say, Here's how IBM is gonna help power the next generation, I was immediately very encouraged by the fact that the two companies are starting to show signs of how they can collaborate to offer value to their customers. Because of course, as John kind of started off with, his question is, they've kind of been where the puck is going. Open source, Linux hybrid cloud, This is the future. In the future. Every company's multi-cloud. And I said in a one-on-one meeting this morning, every company is going to probably have workloads on every cloud, especially large enterprises. >>Yeah. And I think that the secret's gonna be how do you make that evolve? And one of the things that's coming out of the industry over the years, and looking back as historians, we would say, gotta have standards. Well, with cloud, now people standards might slow things down. So you're gonna start to figure out how does the community and the developers are thinking it'll be the canary in the coal mine. And I'd love to get your reaction on that, because we got Cuban next week. You're seeing people kind of align and try to win the developers, which, you know, I always laugh cuz like, you don't wanna win, you want, you want them on your team, but you don't wanna win them. It's like a, it's like, so developers will decide, >>Well, I, I think what's happening is there are multiple forces that are driving product adoption. And John, getting the developers to support the utilization and adoption of any sort of stack goes a long way. We've seen how sticky it can be, how sticky it is with many of the public cloud pro providers, how sticky it is with certain applications. And it's gonna be sticky here in these interim layers like open source automation. And Red Hat does have a very compelling developer ecosystem. I mean, if you sat in the keynote this morning, I said, you know, if you're not a developer, some of this stuff would've been fairly difficult to understand. But as a developer you saw them laughing at jokes because, you know, what was it the whole part about, you know, it didn't actually, the ping wasn't a success, right? And everybody started laughing and you know, I, I was sitting next to someone who wasn't technical and, and you know, she kinda goes, What, what was so funny? >>I'm like, well, he said it worked. Do you see that? It said zero data trans or whatever that was. So, but if I may just really quickly, one, one other thing I did wanna say about Project Wisdom, John, that the low code and no code to the full stack developer is a continuum that every technology company is gonna have to think deeply about as we go to the future. Because the people that tend to know the process that needs to be automated tend to not be able to code it. And so we've seen every automation company on the planet sort of figuring out and how to address this low code, no code environment. I think the power of this partnership between IBM Research and Red Hat is that they have an incredibly deep bench of capabilities to do things like, like self-training. Okay, you've got so much data, such significant size models and accuracy is a problem, but we need systems that can self teach. They need to be able self-teach, self learn, self-heal so that we can actually get to the crux of what automation is supposed to do for us. And that's supposed to take the mundane out and enable those humans that know how to code to work on the really difficult and hard stuff because the automation's not gonna replace any of that stuff anytime soon. >>So where do you think looking at, at the partnership and the evolution of it between IBM research and Red Hat, and you're saying, you know, they're, they're, they're finally getting this synergy together. How is it gonna affect the future of automation and how is it poised to give them a competitive advantage in the market? >>Yeah, I think the future or the, the competitive space is that, that is, is ecosystems and integration. So yesterday you heard, you know, Red Hat Ansible focusing on a partnership with aws. You know, this week I was at Oracle Cloud world and they're talking about running their database in aws. And, and so I'm kind of going around to get to the answer to your question, but I think collaboration is sort of the future of growth and innovation. You need multiple companies working towards the same goal to put gobs of resources, that's the technical term, gobs of resources towards doing really hard things. And so Ansible has been very successful in automating and securing and focusing on very certain specific workloads that need to be automated, but we need more and there's gonna be more data created. The proliferation, especially the edge. So you saw all this stuff about Rockwell, How do you really automate the edge at scale? You need large models that are able to look and consume a ton of data that are gonna be continuously learning, and then eventually they're gonna be able to deliver value to these companies at scale. IBM plus Red Hat have really great resources to drive this kind of automation. Having said that, I see those partnerships with aws, with Microsoft, with ibm, with ServiceNow. It's not one player coming to the table. It's a lot of players. They >>Gotta be Switzerland. I mean they have the Switzerland. I mean, but the thing about the Amazon deal is like that marketplace integration essentially puts Ansible once a client's in on, on marketplace and you get the central on the same bill. I mean, that's gonna be a money maker for Ansible. I >>Couldn't agree more, John. I think being part of these public cloud marketplaces is gonna be so critical and having Ansible land and of course AWS largest public cloud by volume, largest marketplace today. And my opinion is that partnership will be extensible to the other public clouds over time. That just makes sense. And so you start, you know, I think we've learned this, John, you've done enough of these interviews that, you know, you start with the biggest, with the highest distribution and probability rates, which in this case right now is aws, but it'll land on in Azure, it'll land in Google and it'll continue to, to grow. And that kind of adoption, streamlining make it consumption more consumable. That's >>Always, I think, Red Hat and Ansible, you nailed it on that whole point about multicloud, because what happens then is why would I want to alienate a marketplace audience to use my product when it could span multiple environments, right? So you saw, you heard that Stephanie yesterday talk about they, they didn't say multiple clouds, multiple environments. And I think that is where I think I see this layer coming in because some companies just have to work on all clouds. That's the way it has to be. Why wouldn't you? >>Yeah. Well every, every company will probably end up with some workloads in every cloud. I just think that is the fate. Whether it's how we consume our SaaS, which a lot of people don't think about, but it always tends to be running on another hyperscale public cloud. Most companies tend to be consuming some workloads from every cloud. It's not always direct. So they might have a single control plane that they tend to lead the way with, but that is only gonna continue to change. And every public cloud company seems to be working on figuring out what their niche is. What is the one thing that sort of drives whether, you know, it is, you know, traditional, we know the commoditization of traditional storage network compute. So now you're seeing things like ai, things like automation, things like the edge collaboration tools, software being put into the, to the forefront because it's a different consumption model, it's a different margin and economic model. And then of course it gives competitive advantages. And we've seen that, you know, I came back from Google Cloud next and at Google Cloud next, you know, you can see they're leaning into the data AI cloud. I mean, that is their focus, like data ai. This is how we get people to come in and start using Google, who in most cases, they're probably using AWS or Microsoft today. >>It's a great specialty cloud right there. That's a big use case. I can run data on Google and run something on aws. >>And then of course you've got all kinds of, and this is a little off topic, but you got sovereignty, compliance, regulatory that tends to drive different clouds over, you know, global clouds like Tencent and Alibaba. You know, if your workloads are in China, >>Well, this comes back down at least to the whole complexity issue. I mean, it has to get complex before it gets easier. And I think that's what we're seeing companies opportunities like Ansible to be like, Okay, tame, tame the complexity. >>Yeah. Yeah, I totally agree with you. I mean, look, when I was watching the demonstrations today, my take is there's so many kind of simple, repeatable and mundane tasks in everyday life that enterprises need to, to automate. Do that first, you know? Then the second thing is working on how do you create self-healing, self-teaching, self-learning, You know, and, and I realize I'm a little broken of a broken record at this, but these are those first things to fix. You know, I know we want to jump to the future where we automate every task and we have multi-term conversational AI that is booking our calendars and driving our cars for us. But in the first place, we just need to say, Hey, the network's down. Like, let's make sure that we can quickly get access back to that network again. Let's make sure that we're able to reach our different zones and locations. Let's make sure that robotic arm is continually doing the thing it's supposed to be doing on the schedule that it's been committed to. That's first. And then we can get to some of these really intensive deep metaverse state of automation that we talk about. Self-learning, data replication, synthetic data. I'm just gonna throw terms around. So I sound super smart. >>In your customer conversations though, from an looking at the automation journey, are you finding most of them, or some percentage is, is wanting to go directly into those really complex projects rather than starting with the basics? >>I don't know that you're, you're finding that the customers want to do that? I think it's the architecture that often ends up being a problem is we as, as the vendor side, will tend to talk about the most complex problems that they're able to solve before companies have really started solving the, the immediate problems that are before them. You know, it's, we talk about, you know, the metaphor of the cloud is a great one, but we talk about the cloud, like it's ubiquitous. Yeah. But less than 30% of our workloads are in the public cloud. Automation is still in very early days and in many industries it's fairly nascent. And doing things like self-healing networks is still something that hasn't even been able to be deployed on an enterprise-wide basis, let alone at the industrial layer. Maybe at the company's on manufacturing PLAs or in oil fields. Like these are places that have difficult to reach infrastructure that needs to be running all the time. We need to build systems and leverage the power of automation to keep that stuff up and running. That's, that's just business value, which by the way is what makes the world go running. Yeah. Awesome. >>A lot of customers and users are struggling to find what's the value in automating certain process, What's the ROI in it? How do you help them get there so that they understand how to start, but truly to make it a journey that is a success. >>ROI tends to be a little bit nebulous. It's one of those things I think a lot of analysts do. Things like TCO analysis Yeah. Is an ROI analysis. I think the businesses actually tend to know what the ROI is gonna be because they can basically look at something like, you know, when you have an msa, here's the downtime, right? Business can typically tell you, you know, I guarantee you Amazon could say, Look for every second of downtime, this is how much commerce it costs us. Yeah. A company can generally say, if it was, you know, we had the energy, the windmills company, like they could say every minute that windmill isn't running, we're creating, you know, X amount less energy. So there's a, there's a time value proposition that companies can determine. Now the question is, is about the deployment. You know, we, I've seen it more nascent, like cybersecurity can tend to be nascent. >>Like what does a breach cost us? Well there's, you know, specific costs of actually getting the breach cured or paying for the cybersecurity services. And then there's the actual, you know, ephemeral costs of brand damage and of risks and customer, you know, negative customer sentiment that potentially comes out of it. With automation, I think it's actually pretty well understood. They can look at, hey, if we can do this many more cycles, if we can keep our uptime at this rate, if we can reduce specific workforce, and I'm always very careful about this because I don't believe automation is about replacement or displacement, but I do think it is about up-leveling and it is about helping people work on things that are complex problems that machines can't solve. I mean, said that if you don't need to put as many bodies on something that can be immediately returned to the organization's bottom line, or those resources can be used for something more innovative. So all those things are pretty well understood. Getting the automation to full deployment at scale, though, I think what often, it's not that roi, it's the timeline that gets misunderstood. Like all it projects, they tend to take longer. And even when things are made really easy, like with what Project Wisdom is trying to do, semantically enable through low code, no code and the ability to get more accuracy, it just never tends to happen quite as fast. So, but that's not an automation problem, That's just the crux of it. >>Okay. What are some of the, the next things on your plate? You're quite a, a busy guy. We, you, you were at Google, you were at Oracle, you're here today. What are some of the next things that we can expect from Daniel Newman? >>Oh boy, I moved Really, I do move really quickly and thank you for that. Well, I'm very excited. I'm taking a couple of work personal days. I don't know if you're a fan, but F1 is this weekend. I'm the US Grand Prix. Oh, you're gonna Austin. So I will be, I live in Austin. Oh. So I will be in Austin. I will be at the Grand Prix. It is work because it, you know, I'm going with a number of our clients that have, have sponsorships there. So I'll be spending time figuring out how the data that comes off of these really fun cars is meaningfully gonna change the world. I'll actually be talking to Splunk CEO at the, at the race on Saturday morning. But yeah, I got a lot of great things. I got a, a conversation coming up with the CEO of Twilio next week. We got a huge week of earnings ahead and so I do a lot of work on that. So I'll be on Bloomberg next week with Emily Chang talking about Microsoft and Google. Love talking to Emily, but just as much love being here on, on the queue with you >>Guys. Well we like to hear that. Who you're rooting for F one's your favorite driver. I, >>I, I like Lando. Do you? I'm Norris. I know it's not necessarily a fan favorite, but I'm a bit of a McLaren guy. I mean obviously I have clients with Oracle and Red Bull with Ball Common Ferrari. I've got Cly Splunk and so I have clients in all. So I'm cheering for all of 'em. And on Sunday I'm actually gonna be in the Williams Paddock. So I don't, I don't know if that's gonna gimme me a chance to really root for anything, but I'm always, always a big fan of the underdog. So maybe Latifi. >>There you go. And the data that comes off the how many central unbeliev, the car, it's crazy's. Such a scientific sport. Believable. >>We could have Christian, I was with Christian Horner yesterday, the team principal from Reside. Oh yeah, yeah. He was at the Oracle event and we did a q and a with him and with the CMO of, it's so much fun. F1 has been unbelievable to watch the momentum and what a great, you know, transitional conversation to to, to CX and automation of experiences for fans as the fan has grown by hundreds of percent. But just to circle back full way, I was very encouraged with what I saw today. Red Hat, Ansible, IBM Strong partnership. I like what they're doing in their expanded ecosystem. And automation, by the way, is gonna be one of the most robust investment areas over the next few years, even as other parts of tech continue to struggle that in cyber security. >>You heard it here. First guys, investment in automation and cyber security straight from two analysts. I got to sit between. For our guests and John Furrier, I'm Lisa Martin, you're watching The Cube Live from Chicago, Ansible Fest 22. John and I will be back after a short break. SO'S stick around.

>>from around the >>globe. It's the Cube with digital coverage of AWS reinvent 2020 sponsored by Intel and AWS. Yeah, >>Hi. We are the Cube live covering AWS reinvent 2020. I'm Lisa Martin, and I've got one of our cube alumni back with me. Mike Miller is here. General manager of A W s AI Devices at AWS. Mike, welcome back to the Cube. >>Hi, Lisa. Thank you so much for having me. It's really great to join you all again at this virtual reinvent. >>Yes, I think last year you were on set. We have always had to. That's at reinvent. And you you had the deep race, your car, and so we're obviously socially distance here. But talk to me about deepracer. What's going on? Some of the things that have gone on the last year that you're excited >>about. Yeah, I'd love to tell. Tell you a little bit about what's been happening. We've had a tremendous year. Obviously, Cove. It has restricted our ability to have our in person races. Eso we've really gone gone gangbusters with our virtual league. So we have monthly races for competitors that culminate in the championship. Um, at reinvent. So this year we've got over 100 competitors who have qualified and who are racing virtually with us this year at reinvent. They're participating in a series of knockout rounds that are being broadcast live on twitch over the next week. That will whittle the group down to AH Group of 32 which will have a Siris of single elimination brackets leading to eight finalists who will race Grand Prix style five laps, eight cars on the track at the same time and will crown the champion at the closing keynote on December 15th this year. >>Exciting? So you're bringing a reinforcement, learning together with with sports that so many of us have been missing during the pandemic. We talked to me a little bit about some of the things that air that you've improved with Deep Racer and some of the things that are coming next year. Yeah, >>absolutely so, First of all, Deep Racer not only has been interesting for individuals to participate in the league, but we continue to see great traction and adoption amongst big customers on dare, using Deep Racer for hands on learning for machine learning, and many of them are turning to Deep Racer to train their workforce in machine learning. So over 150 customers from the likes of Capital One Moody's, Accenture, DBS Bank, JPMorgan Chase, BMW and Toyota have held Deep Racer events for their workforces. And in fact, three of those customers Accenture, DBS Bank and J. P. Morgan Chase have each trained over 1000 employees in their organization because they're just super excited. And they find that deep racers away to drive that excitement and engagement across their customers. We even have Capital one expanded this to their families, so Capital One ran a deep raise. Their Kids Cup, a family friendly virtual competition this past year were over. 250 Children and 200 families got to get hands on with machine learning. >>So I envisioned some. You know, this being a big facilitator during the pandemic when there's been this massive shift to remote work has have you seen an uptick in it for companies that talking about training need to be ableto higher? Many, many more people remotely but also train them? Is deep Racer facilitator of that? Yeah, >>absolutely. Deep Racer has ah core component of the experience, which is all virtualized. So we have, ah, console and integration with other AWS services so that racers can participate using a three d racing simulator. They can actually see their car driving around a track in a three D world simulation. Um, we're also selling the physical devices. So you know, if participants want to get the one of those devices and translate what they've done in the virtual world to the real world, they can start doing that. And in fact, just this past year, we made our deep race or car available for purchase internationally through the Amazon Com website to help facilitate that. >>So how maney deep racers air out there? I'm just curious. >>Oh, thousands. Um, you know, And there what? What we've seen is some companies will purchase you, know them in bulk and use them for their internal leagues. Just like you know, JP Morgan Chase on DBS Bank. These folks have their own kind of tracks and racers that they'll use to facilitate both in person as well as the virtual racing. >>I'm curious with this shift to remote that we mentioned a minute ago. How are you seeing deepracer as a facilitator of engagement. You mentioned engagement. And that's one of the biggest challenges that so Maney teams develops. Processes have without being co located with each other deep Brister help with that. I mean, from an engagement perspective, I think >>so. What we've seen is that Deep Racer is just fun to get your hands on. And we really lower the learning curve for machine learning. And in particular, this branch called reinforcement Learning, which is where you train this agent through trial and error toe, learn how to do a new, complex task. Um, and what we've seen is that customers who have introduced Deep Racer, um, as an event for their employees have seen ah, very wide variety of employees. Skill sets, um, kind of get engaged. So you've got not just the hardcore deep data scientists or the M L engineers. You've got Web front end programmers. You even have some non technical folks who want to get their hands dirty. Onda learn about machine learning and Deep Racer really is a nice, gradual introduction to doing that. You can get engaged with it with very little kind of coding knowledge at all. >>So talk to me about some of the new services. And let's look at some specific use case customer use cases with each service. Yeah, >>absolutely. So just to set the context. You know, Amazon's got hundreds. A ws has hundreds of thousands of customers doing machine learning on AWS. No customers of all sizes are embedding machine learning into their no core business processes. And one of the things that we always do it Amazon is We're listening to customers. You know, 90 to 95% of our road maps are driven by customer feedback. And so, as we've been talking to these industrial manufacturing customers, they've been telling us, Hey, we've got data. We've got these processes that are happening in our industrial sites. Um, and we just need some help connecting the dots like, how do we really most effectively use machine learning to improve our processes in these industrial and manufacturing sites? And so we've come up with these five services. They're focused on industrial manufacturing customers, uh, two of the services air focused around, um, predictive maintenance and, uh, the other three services air focused on computer vision. Um, and so let's start with the predictive maintenance side. So we announced Amazon Monitor On and Amazon look out for equipment. So these services both enable predictive maintenance powered by machine learning in a way that doesn't require the customer to have any machine learning expertise. So Mono Tron is an end to end machine learning system with sensors, gateway and an ML service that can detect anomalies and predict when industrial equipment will require maintenance. I've actually got a couple examples here of the sensors in the gateway, so this is Amazon monitor on these little sensors. This little guy is a vibration and temperature sensor that's battery operated, and wireless connects to the gateway, which then transfers the data up to the M L Service in the cloud. And what happens is, um, the sensors can be connected to any rotating machinery like pump. Pour a fan or a compressor, and they will send data up to the machine learning cloud service, which will detect anomalies or sort of irregular kind of sensor readings and then alert via a mobile app. Just a tech or a maintenance technician at an industrial site to go have a look at their equipment and do some preventative maintenance. So um, it's super extreme line to end to end and easy for, you know, a company that has no machine learning expertise to take advantage of >>really helping them get on board quite quickly. Yeah, >>absolutely. It's simple tea set up. There's really very little configuration. It's just a matter of placing the sensors, pairing them up with the mobile app and you're off and running. >>Excellent. I like easy. So some of the other use cases? Yeah, absolutely. >>So So we've seen. So Amazon fulfillment centers actually have, um, enormous amounts of equipment you can imagine, you know, the size of an Amazon fulfillment center. 28 football fields, long miles of conveyor belts and Amazon fulfillment centers have started to use Amazon monitor on, uh, to monitor some of their conveyor belts. And we've got a filament center in Germany that has started using these 1000 sensors, and they've already been able to, you know, do predictive maintenance and prevent downtime, which is super costly, you know, for businesses, we've also got customers like Fender, you know, who makes guitars and amplifiers and musical equipment. Here in the US, they're adopting Amazon monitor on for their industrial machinery, um, to help prevent downtime, which again can cost them a great deal as they kind of hand manufacture these high end guitars. Then there's Amazon. Look out for equipment, which is one step further from Amazon monitor on Amazon. Look out for equipment. Um provides a way for customers to send their own sensor data to AWS in order to build and train a model that returns predictions for detecting abnormal equipment behavior. So here we have a customer, for example, like GP uh, E P s in South Korea, or I'm sorry, g S E P s in South Korea there in industrial conglomerate, and they've been collecting their own data. So they have their own sensors from industrial equipment for a decade. And they've been using just kind of rule basic rules based systems to try to gain insight into that data. Well, now they're using Amazon, look out for equipment to take all of their existing sensor data, have Amazon for equipment, automatically generate machine learning models on, then process the sensor data to know when they're abnormalities or when some predictive maintenance needs to occur. >>So you've got the capabilities of working with with customers and industry that that don't have any ML training to those that do have been using sensors. So really, everybody has an opportunity here to leverage this new Amazon technology, not only for predicted, but one of the things I'm hearing is contact list, being able to understand what's going on without having to have someone physically there unless there is an issue in contact. This is not one of the words of 2020 but I think it probably should be. >>Yeah, absolutely. And in fact, that that was some of the genesis of some of the next industrial services that we announced that are based on computer vision. What we saw on what we heard when talking to these customers is they have what we call human inspection processes or manual inspection processes that are required today for everything from, you know, monitoring you like workplace safety, too, you know, quality of goods coming off of a machinery line or monitoring their yard and sort of their, you know, truck entry and exit on their looking for computer vision toe automate a lot of these tasks. And so we just announced a couple new services that use computer vision to do that to automate these once previously manual inspection tasks. So let's start with a W A. W s Panorama uses computer vision toe improve those operations and workplace safety. AWS Panorama is, uh, comes in two flavors. There's an appliance, which is, ah, box like this. Um, it basically can go get installed on your network, and it will automatically discover and start processing the video feeds from existing cameras. So there's no additional capital expense to take a W s panorama and have it apply computer vision to the cameras that you've already got deployed, you know, So customers are are seeing that, um, you know, computer vision is valuable, but the reason they want to do this at the edge and put this computer vision on site is because sometimes they need to make very low Leighton see decisions where if you have, like a fast moving industrial process, you can use computer vision. But I don't really want to incur the cost of sending data to the cloud and back. I need to make a split second decision, so we need machine learning that happens on premise. Sometimes they don't want to stream high bandwidth video. Or they just don't have the bandwidth to get this video back to the cloud and sometimes their data governance or privacy restrictions that restrict the company's ability to send images or video from their site, um, off site to the cloud. And so this is why Panorama takes this machine learning and makes it happen right here on the edge for customers. So we've got customers like Cargill who uses or who is going to use Panorama to improve their yard management. They wanna use computer vision to detect the size of trucks that drive into their granaries and then automatically assign them to an appropriately sized loading dock. You've got a customer like Siemens Mobility who you know, works with municipalities on, you know, traffic on by other transport solutions. They're going to use AWS Panorama to take advantage of those existing kind of traffic cameras and build machine learning models that can, you know, improve congestion, allocate curbside space, optimize parking. We've also got retail customers. For instance, Parkland is a Canadian fuel station, um, and retailer, you know, like a little quick stop, and they want to use Panorama to do things like count the people coming in and out of their stores and do heat maps like, Where are people visiting my store so I can optimize retail promotions and product placement? >>That's fantastic. The number of use cases is just, I imagine if we had more time like you could keep going and going. But thank you so much for not only sharing what's going on with Deep Racer and the innovations, but also for show until even though we weren't in person at reinvent this year, Great to have you back on the Cube. Mike. We appreciate your time. Yeah, thanks, Lisa, for having me. I appreciate it for Mike Miller. I'm Lisa Martin. You're watching the cubes Live coverage of aws reinvent 2020.
