Barry McCardel

Hex Technologies co-founder and CEO Barry McCardel talks about how his company is attempting to simplify the data science workflow—notebooks, collaboration, storytelling, sharing, you name it. And with a focus on security, something for which the founding team developed an affinity during their time at Palantir. McCardel also discusses the (hopefully) novel experience of growing an early-stage startup during a pandemic.

In this episode of the ARCHITECHT Show, Apptio CEO Sunny Gupta explains the economics of cloud computing and IT, in general -- based on what he's seeing from Apptio's large collection of enterprise users. While cloud spending is still relatively low as a piece of the overall pie, it's increasing fast as a result of SaaS adoption, and trends such as digital transformation and even artificial intelligence. Aside from sheer usage, Gupta also discusses the effects of complexity on IT budgets, as companies struggle to figure out how efficiently they're utilizing services and get control of zombie or credit-card subscriptions.

A weekly podcast about the business of cloud computing, artificial intelligence and data science. Hosted by Derrick Harris.

Derrick Harris has been covering Hadoop, cloud computing, big data, and AI for years as part of outlets like Gigaom and has always been one of the best in the business. After Gigaom closed up, I was thrilled that he was able to continue podcasting with the Architecht Show. The show is a mix of industry news at the beginning and then an interesting guest for the second half. Derrick&#39;s interviews are deep and are not fluff, and he&#39;s connected enough in the industry that he can give insightful commentary on what the broader implications are for a given piece of news. 

About the only thing I don&#39;t like about the podcast is the name, but otherwise it&#39;s one of the few podcasts that I listen to every week.

Dan Kohn

Gabe Monroy

In this week's rare two-interview episode, Derrick Harris talks Kubernetes with Cloud Native Computing Foundation executive director Dan Kohn, who discusses the Kubernetes ecosystem and adoption, as well the purpose for foundations like CNCF and where they fit into the open source landscape (e.g., in relation to the Apache Software Foundation). Derrick also speaks with Gabe Monroy, who was co-founder and CTO of container startup Deis, which Microsoft acquired in April. Monroy talks about how Deis came to be and the technologies it developed, and how everything is working now that they're part of Microsoft. In the news segment, Derrick and co-host Barb Darrow (Fortune) discuss Amazon's non-compete lawsuit against a former exec, Intel's veiled threat to would-be x86 emulators, and fun—and hopefully useful—AI research out of Microsoft and Facebook.

In this episode of the ARCHITECHT Show, Zillow Chief Analytics Officer Stan Humphries discusses about a wide range of topics, including his unique path from policy scholar to web analytics exec, and how an explosion data helped Zillow grow into the business it is today. Humphries, who helped create the company's Zestimate tool for predicting home values, also shares some insights into how deep learning -- and computer vision, in particular -- helps Zillow further improve its accuracy. It does this in part by analyzing images to extract richer information (e.g., how well a home is maintained, price of appliances, etc.) than simply relying on square footage, neighborhood and standard home-buying data. This episode is sponsored by Datadog and MongoDB.
