Cloud Realities

There is a scary contradiction in the increased power consumption of the latest technical innovations, and the impact the increased power consumption will have on society and the planet.

This week Dave and Rob talk to Michael Carbb SVP of Commercial at Last Energy about huge growth in power consumption due to electrification, power perhaps becoming the new constraint, modular nuclear power, perceived danger vs. real danger of nuclear, do we have any alternatives and how long it takes to get modular power to a data centre.

TLDR:
03:00: Hyper personalization of communication
06:25: Cloud conversation with Michael Crabb
34:00: Hyperscale data centers and sustainability
52:35:  Waiting for the baby!

What is Cloud Realities?

Exploring both the practical realities and the exciting alternate realities that can be unleashed through cloud driven transformation and cloud native living and working.

Each episode, our hosts Dave, Sjoukje & Rob talk to Cloud leaders and practitioners to understand how previously untapped business value can be released, how to deal with the challenges and risks that come with bold ventures and how does human experience factor into all of this?

They cover Intelligent Industry, Customer Experience, Sustainability, AI, Data and Insight, Cyber, Cost, Leadership, Talent and, of course, Tech.

Together, Dave, Sjoukje & Rob have over 80 years of cloud and transformation experience and act as our guides though a new reality each week.
