On this episode of the Futurum Tech Podcast – Interview Series I am joined by Rebecca Weekly, VP and GM, Hyperscale Strategy and Execution for Intel. Rebecca leads the team that ensures that all products across the spectrum are optimized for hyperscale.    Our discussion centered on Intel’s the 3rd Generation Xeon Scalable Processor launch and the role cloud innovation has played in Intel’s ability to deliver high performance for the most in-demand workloads.   Cloud Performance Made Flexible   My conversation with Rebecca also revolved around the following:    The role cloud technologies have played not only in business but in our everyday lives in the past year     A quick look into Intel’s agile and flexible approach     How Intel unlocks the full potential of hardware with software optimizations     The drivers behind the world’s largest cloud providers using the 3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processor     An inside look at Intel Software Guard Extensions    Cloud computing is, as Rebecca said, how wonderful gets done. This technology is driving the future of digital transformation and will likely lead to other advancements for years to come. If you’d like to learn more about how Intel is leading in the cloud space,  be sure to check out their website.

Cloud Performance Made Flexible with Intel’s Rebecca Weekly

Welcome back to a new year of Google Cloud Platform Podcasts! Mark Mirchandani and Emma Iwao host the first show of 2021 with special guest Rebecca Weekly of Intel. She joins us to talk about the partnership between Google Cloud and Intel. Describing the company’s goals of gathering, storing, managing, and analyzing data in all its forms to unlock the power of technology and information, Rebecca points out how well these align with Google’s own goals and why the partnership is such a natural fit. Rebecca explains the four pillars of the Google-Intel partnership, including the focus on infrastructure and app modernization to elevate the user experience. Through their work with Google, Intel has been able to optimize the move from on prem to cloud for those clients who choose to make the shift, using their thorough client knowledge and Google Cloud expertise to facilitate a smooth transition. Rebecca walks us through the process of crafting this client experience, from choosing products and tools to identifying and solving any bottlenecks and optimizing the configuration using benchmarks. Later, we talk about the value of open source software in both the hardware and software worlds and why Intel believes so strongly in open source projects. Rebecca offers examples of clients successfully using Intel hardware and Google Cloud software, including Climacell and Kinsta. We get the inside scoop on future projects at Intel, like the next generation of scalable Xeon processors, and Rebecca talks about the future of data analyzation and computing. Intel and the Intel logo are trademarks of Intel Corporation or its subsidiaries. Rebecca Weekly Rebecca leads the team that influences nearly every aspect of our cloud platform solutions across strategic planning, hardware and software enabling, marketing and sales. Together they shape the development, production, and business strategy of Intel’s cloud platforms to ensure differentiation and platforms that enable TAM expansion with enthusiasm, collaboration, and urgency. She drives strategic collaborations with key partners including top cloud service providers, OxMs, ISVs &amp; OSVs to ensure platform requirements meet our customer needs. In her “spare” time, she’s the lead singer of a funk &amp; soul band, Sinister Dexter, was professionally trained in dance (tap, modern, and jazz), and is an experienced choreographer. She has two amazing little boys and loves to run (after them, and on her own). Rebecca graduated from MIT with a degree in Computer Science and Electrical Engineering.
