Highlights00:12 — Now on the Cloud Wars Top 10 growth chart, this is one of the great representations of this greatest growth market the world has ever known, and for about the sixth or seventh straight quarter, Google Cloud emerges as the world's hottest major cloud vendor, 32% growth, but Oracle and Microsoft were also rocking recently, and it overall shows a picture of enormous growth here.00:37 — Of the Cloud Wars Top 10 companies, only one, that was SAP, reported declining growth rate from Q1 to Q2, all the others went up. So let's take a look at those. As I said, Google Cloud up 32% to 13.6 billion, Snowflake, the smallest company on the Cloud Wars Top 10, also up 32% to 1.1 billion. Oracle was up 28% to 7.2 billion.AI Agent & Copilot Summit is an AI-first event to define opportunities, impact, and outcomes with Microsoft Copilot and agents. Building on its 2025 success, the 2026 event takes place March 17-19 in San Diego. Get more details. 01:03 — Those are nice numbers. But the big thing for Oracle is it has had just an absolutely explosive RPO. Oracle's RPO is $455 billion. Microsoft, another remarkable quarter growth rate of 27% of $46.7 billion. Now it's interesting that the quarter before that, Microsoft's growth rate was 20% so it went from 20 to 27. Google Cloud over the last two quarters, went from 28% to 32%.02:09 — Then if we look at AWS, 17.5% to 30.9 billion, excellent numbers, and in any, just about any other industry that would be seen as by far the best. But look at this growth rate, 17.5% for AWS, 27% for Microsoft, one of its major competitors, 32% growth rate, almost twice as high as AWS for Google Cloud. Yes, AWS is big, but it doesn't account for almost like a 2X difference there.03:47 — I think what we see with Google Cloud now that it's established themselves as a very high flyer here, but I think we're going to see Oracle to keep moving up. Microsoft, at the size of its revenue base, to grow 27% is extraordinary. Visit Cloud Wars for more.
On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we welcome back Ray Wang, principal analyst and CEO of Constellation Research, for a dynamic discussion on technology's future. We explore the explosive rise of AI-native companies, the shifting global tech landscape, and the urgent need for U.S. manufacturing revitalization. Ray also highlights NVIDIA's dominance in AI, the U.S.-China tech rivalry, and challenges facing Western innovation. The conversation addresses local governance, inefficiencies in public spending, and the importance of community-focused leadership. Insightful and timely, the episode offers a candid look at the opportunities and risks shaping tomorrow's tech-driven world. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Ray Wang on the Rise of AI Exponential Companies: Redefining Tech's Competitive Landscape The tech industry is undergoing a radical shift as “AI exponentials” redefine how companies launch, scale, and compete. Coined by Christopher Lochhead and analyst Ray Wang, these ultra-lean ventures harness artificial intelligence to achieve extraordinary efficiency, often generating tens of millions in annual recurring revenue with only a few employees. ServiceNow's rise to a $180 billion market cap illustrates the long arc of cloud innovation, but today's startups push the model further. Sites like tinyteams.xyz track firms posting up to $20 million ARR per employee, while projects such as Turbo Learn AI, built by college dropouts using only ChatGPT, AWS, and Perplexity, show how minimal capital can now create high-impact software. This “atomization” of business echoes biotech's disruption of big pharma: innovation emerges outside legacy giants, who increasingly serve merely as distribution channels. The next frontier may be one-person, billion-dollar enterprises, unleashing vast creative potential while reshaping society. Ray Wang on the White Collar Recession and the AI-Driven Future of Work Ray Wang warns that the world is entering the largest White-Collar Recession yet, driven by rapid automation and AI. Tech giants like Microsoft and Nvidia expect to double revenue without adding comparable headcount, transforming the workplace from a broad pyramid into a narrow diamond. This shift threatens entry-level and managerial roles, leaving young workers with limited opportunities and older professionals facing displacement despite valuable expertise. Rather than simple layoffs, Ray sees an evolution of work. Experienced knowledge workers, equipped with affordable, scalable tools, are more likely to launch their own ventures than climb shrinking corporate ladders. Venture capital, built for slower, capital-heavy startups, struggles to keep pace as AI founders can bootstrap to profitability. The next two years, he predicts, will usher in a golden age of AI entrepreneurship. Yet this transformation raises urgent questions about mentorship, economic mobility, and how society will adapt alongside technological progress. Geopolitical AI, the US-China Cold War, and the Battle for Humanity's Future Ray Wang casts the US–China tech rivalry as a defining struggle for humanity's future: one fought with chips, algorithms, and influence rather than weapons. He contrasts China's centralized, surveillance-driven AI model with the West's ideal of decentralized abundance and freedom. This conflict, simmering for over a decade, now plays out in debates over chip exports, data sovereignty, and social-media persuasion wars. America currently holds a three-year chip advantage through companies like Nvidia, which dominate both hardware and AI software ecosystems. But Wang warns this lead is fragile: Chinese engineers are skilled, manufacturing capacity is world-class, and Europe risks irrelevance unless it chooses a side.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I unpack how Oracle's $455B RPO surge signals a massive shift in cloud leadership.Highlights00:15 — We see across the Cloud Wars Top 10 an incredible sense of demand from businesses across the world — to help those businesses create their futures. And in fact, we've now got, just among the four hyperscalers, a pipeline totaling $1.1 trillion. We've got Oracle in the top spot there at $455 billion. Microsoft is number two in the RPO race, $368 billion.01:17 — So here, I've got the four hyperscalers with RPO and the RPO growth rate, then quarterly revenue and quarterly growth rate. Oracle is on the top, its RPO now sits at close to half a trillion dollars, with a growth rate of 359%. Microsoft: $368 billion in RPO, up a whopping 37%, off that huge base. Quarterly revenue for the Microsoft Cloud — almost $47 billion, up 27%.02:25 — AWS' RPO is now $195 billion, up about 25%. That's coming off its Q2 revenue of almost $31 billion, up 17.5%. AWS is growing more slowly than the other hyperscalers. Google Cloud: backlog $106 billion, up 38%. For Q2, Google Cloud revenue at $13.6 billion, up 32%. So it was the fastest-growing in Q1, doing very well here.03:33 — Now altogether, this adds up to $1.1 trillion. I'm just not used to saying “trillion.” Got to get more used to that as this market gets bigger. Oracle CEO Safra Catz said that there were multiple huge deals that Oracle signed for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, and more coming. Catz said that, “We anticipate that in the near future, Oracle's RPO will reach $500 billion — half a trillion.”04:32 — Going into the future, as AI comes along and changes so much, RPO — or backlog — gives us a great idea of who the hot companies are coming up. And right now, undisputedly, that is Oracle. The other three companies are doing quite well, but I think AWS has become the “slowpoke” in this sprint that the others are undertaking.

How confident are you when your test suite goes green? If you're honest, probably not 100% confident - because most bugs come from scenarios we never thought to test. Traditional testing only catches the problems we anticipate, but the 3am pager alerts? Those come from the unexpected interactions, timing issues, and edge cases we never imagined.In this episode, Will Wilson from Antithesis takes us deep into the world of autonomous testing. They've built a deterministic hypervisor that can simulate entire distributed systems - complete with fake AWS services - and intelligently explore millions of possible states to find bugs before production. Think property-based testing, but for your entire infrastructure stack. The approach is so thorough they've even used it to find glitches in Super Mario Brothers (seriously).We explore how deterministic simulation works at the hypervisor level, why traditional integration tests are fundamentally limited, and how you can write maintainable tests that actually find the bugs that matter. If you've ever wished you could test "what happens when everything that can go wrong does go wrong," this conversation shows you how that's finally becoming possible.---Support Developer Voices on Patreon: https://patreon.com/DeveloperVoicesSupport Developer Voices on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DeveloperVoices/joinAntithesis: https://antithesis.com/Antithesis testing with Super Mario: https://antithesis.com/blog/sdtalk/...and with Metroid: https://antithesis.com/blog/2025/metroid/MongoDB: https://www.mongodb.com/etcd (Linux Foundation): https://etcd.io/Facebook Hermit: https://github.com/facebookexperimental/hermitRR (Record-Replay Debugger): https://rr-project.org/T-SAN (Thread Sanitizer): https://clang.llvm.org/docs/ThreadSanitizer.htmlToby Bell's Strange Loop Talk on JPL Testing: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=toby+bell+strange+loop+jplAndy Weir - Project Hail Mary: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/54493401-project-hail-maryAndy Weir - The Martian: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18007564-the-martianAntithesis Blog (Nintendo Games Testing): https://antithesis.com/blog/Kris on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.socialKris on Mastodon: http://mastodon.social/@krisajenkinsKris on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/

Colby Ward of Amazon Web Services talks about leveraging agentic AI for competitive advantage; navigating change management; data; & eliminating spreadsheets. IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS: [04.04] An introduction to Colby, his background, and role at Amazon Web Services. [06.58] An overview of AWS – who they are, what they do, and how they help their customers. “Everybody knows the expression: ‘Garbage in, garbage out!' But no one seems to focus on that area enough. They seem to say: “Well, here's our solution, whatever your data is, we'll take it.” And nobody focuses on: “How can I connect your data in an easier way?” “Our goal is to eventually eliminate the spreadsheet on every supply chainers desktop!” [10.30] Where enterprise technology has focused over the last couple of decades, the positives and negatives, and how we've got to where we are today. [14.17] The problem with generic SaaS systems in supply chain, and how agentic AI can deliver improved orchestration and eliminate bias. “SaaS systems are designed to fit any customer need, not your specific needs…. It has to be built in a generic way, so they offer configurable options, different APIs, but you're molding a generic system. And the problem is: supply chain problems aren't generic. They're specific. When you translate the word supply chain, what you're really saying is business operations. So that's a big topic!” “Not conjecture, not just leaving it up to somebody's best instinct… When you're operating on data-driven decisions, you don't have to second guess.” [22.27] How businesses can tackle outdated processes and deal with dirty data to leverage agentic AI in the most effective ways. “People say that data is the new oil, and that's true. But, like oil, if it's unrefined, it's useless.” [29.17] Leveraging agentic AI for competitive advantage, and why businesses should be thinking about creating the most amount of outputs from the least amount of inputs. “Enterprise A that doesn't use AI will eventually be the lumber yard that never bothered with a chainsaw. There's a reason we moved from axes to chainsaws, and AI is your chainsaw!” [35.21] Whether or not agentic AI will level the playing field. [37.34] An overview of ontologies, process and knowledge graphs, and how they can guide agents to achieve next-level intelligence.

I spoke with Kalai Ramea at a timely moment. We recorded this conversation during a heatwave in the UK, which made her work at Planette AI feel very real. Kalai calls herself an all-purpose scientist, with a path that runs through California climate policy, Xerox PARC, and now a startup focused on the forecast window that most people ignore. Not tomorrow's weather. Not far-off climate scenarios. The space in between. Two weeks to two months out, where decisions get made and money is on the line. Kalai explains Planette AI's idea of scientific AI in plain words. Instead of learning from yesterday's weather patterns and hoping the future looks the same, their models learn physics from earth system simulations. Ocean meets atmosphere, energy moves, and the model learns those relationships directly. That matters in a warming world where history is a shaky guide. It also shortens time to insight. Traditional models can take weeks to run. If the output arrives after the risky period has passed, it is trivia. tte AI is building for speed and usefulness. The value shows up in places you can picture. Event planners deciding whether to green-light a festival. Airlines shaping schedules and staffing. Farmers choosing when to plant and irrigate. Insurers pricing risk without leaning only on the past. Kalai shared a telling backcast of Bonnaroo in Tennessee, where flooding forced a last-minute cancellation. Their system showed heavy-rain signals weeks ahead. That kind of lead time changes outcomes, budgets, and stress levels. From Jargon To Decisions What I appreciate most about this story is the focus on access. Too many forecasts live in papers that only specialists read. Kalai and team are working to strip away jargon and deliver answers people can act on. Will it rain enough to trigger a payout. Will a heat threshold be crossed. Will the next month bring the kind of wind that matters for grid operations. The delivery matters as much as the math. NetCDF files might work for researchers, but a map, a simple number, or a chat interface is what users reach for when time is short. There is also a financial thread running through this work. Climate risk now shapes crop insurance, carbon programs, and balance sheets. Parametric insurance is growing because it is simple. Set a threshold. If it hits, the policy pays. Better medium-range signals make those products fairer and more useful. Kalai describes Planette AI's role as a baseline layer others can build on, a kind of AWS for climate intelligence. That framing fits. No single company will build every app in this space. A reliable core makes the rest possible. Kalai's path ties it all together. Policy taught her how decisions get made. PARC sharpened her instincts for practical AI. PlanetteAI is the result. If you care about planning beyond next week, this episode will give you a new way to think about forecasts and the tools that power them. I will add the blog link Kalai shared in the show notes. In the meantime, if you are in agriculture, travel, energy, or insurance, ask yourself a simple question. What would you change if you had a trustworthy signal three to eight weeks ahead. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA

“Sonaspection has been keeping inspectors honest since 1980—by making flaws on purpose. This week, Jeremy Ring joins me to talk NDT, mentorship, and how controlled cracks build better inspectors.” This week on the Arc Junkies Podcast, I'm joined by Jeremy Ring, President of Sonaspection. If you're not familiar with Sonaspection, they've been training inspectors since 1980 by creating controlled flaws in real welded samples. Their work keeps inspectors sharp, welders accountable, and industries safe. Jeremy shares his journey from NASCAR engineering to NDT leadership, and we dig into how flawed specimens help inspectors build the confidence to make the right call in the field. We also talk about mentorship, the future of inspection with AI, the global shortage of inspectors, and why proper training is critical to preventing failures that could put lives at risk. If you've ever wondered how inspectors sharpen their skills—or why “known flaws” are the best teachers—this is an episode you don't want to miss.
