In the past several years, Kubernetes has become the de-facto standard for orchestrating containerized, stateless applications. Tools such as StatefulSets and Persistent Volumes have helped developers build stateful applications on Kubernetes, but this can quickly become difficult to manage as an application scales. Tasks such as machine learning, distributed AI, and big data analytics often require a distributed application to maintain some sort of state across services. KubeDirector is an open-source controller that helps streamline the deployment and management of complex stateful scale-out application clusters on Kubernetes. KubeDirector provides an application-agnostic deployment pattern and enables developers to run non-cloud native stateful applications on Kubernetes without modifying the code. KubeDirector is part of a larger project called BlueK8s, which aims to bring enterprise-level capabilities for distributed stateful applications to Kubernetes.Kartik Mathur is an engineere at HPE Developer, an open-source initiative within Hewlett-Packard Enterprise. HPE is an enterprise contributor to the KubeDirector open-source community. Kartik previously worked as senior software engineers at BlueData, which created the KubeDirector project before its acquisition by HPE. Kartik joins the show today to talk about why state is important for Big Data or Machine learning applications, how KubeDirector can help manage the complexity of stateful applications, and what's next for the BlueK8s project as a whole.
As Hewlett Packard Enterprise launches its bare-metal container platform at KubeCon this week, Moor Insights & Strategy analysts Matt Kimball and Steve McDowell have a conversation with HPE VP and Chief Cloud Strategist Robert Christiansen. The guys talk about how HPE views cloud workloads, and how the power of Kubernetes and containers might just be the right answer for both cloud and edge. It's a great conversation with unexpected insight about the long-term impact of Kubernetes on IT architecture. HPE is helping to shape that future as it brings the power of MapR and BlueData into the fold. Listen in. Thank you to Robert for taking the time to join us this week. Special Guest: Robert Christiansen.
Not everything is broken this week although some things definitely are looking grim. We consider how really dead data centers are according to Gartner, Cisco gobbles some more AI for Webex while HPE gets more AI-ish for Bluedata. GTT Communications is in trouble while ATT Bribery case highlights that big companies are dumb. Snark and virtual donuts all round this week. The post Network Break 247: Data Centers Are Not Quite Dead, AI is a Feature Not A Product appeared first on Packet Pushers.

In this podcast, we look at what HPE Storage is doing around Big Data Analytics and focus in on the acquisition of BlueData. I am joined by Patrick Osborne, the VP and GM of Big Data and Secondary Storage at HPE Storage. For the last couple of minutes, Patrick and I also discuss the day-after-Christmas bowl game between our two colleges, Boise State and Boston College. This is a 17 minute podcast.

The team sits down with Tom Phelan, Chief Architect, and Joel Baxter, Senior Engineer, both with BlueData, a container-based software platform for Big Data Analytics. While BlueData has been on the podcast before,
Cory Minton, Rob Hout and Thomas Henson talk with special guest Anant Chintamaneni about BlueData's unique approach to making Big Data technologies easier to deploy, manage and orchestrate using containers and some other really cool innovations.

The BlueData job is done. It looks like Haiey was the subject of some bizarre experiments. Elric still wants answers, but the rest of the team mostly just wants to forget it and leave it all behind. Besides, there are more important things to think about. It looks like Eion has gone full blown artificially intelligence. How is Payday going to deal with this?

Wata, Throwback, and Elric do some good ol’ fashioned scouting of the BlueData building on foot. Then they go get some dirt on a security guard so that they’ll have a way in.

It’s time to start prepping for another BlueData job. This one’s going to be a bit harder… So naturally it’s time for Wata to go shopping. Also, Eion starts to take on a much heavier role in this run. Her limits as an agent are being pushed and… it might be starting to affect her?

After just getting away from BlueData with the mcguffin in hand, the team meets up with Z-Trip to get paid AND get a little bit of cryptic info on Hailey.

With their new decker in tow (almost literally), they’ve finally managed to make it into BlueData past the front security. Can they make it to the secure server and retrieve their data? Or will Elric get his arm ripped off by a security dog? I guess you’ll have to listen and see! WEBSITE - http://www.complexaction.net/actualplay/ PATREON - patreon.com/complexaction.

BlueData CEO Kumar Sreekanti describes a new software layer to speed on-premises big data application deployments.
Rachel Chalmers knows your Achilles heel. After two plus decades sitting in Silicon Valley's front row watching start-up technology companies, she has a very clear idea of the single biggest cause of start-up failure. Rachel was kind enough to sit down for a few minutes at the Montgomery Summit and talk about it. Listen in to hear what she sees as most critical for entrepreneurial success. My Guest Rachel Chalmers has been a long time observer and analyst in the world of technology. She describes herself as a failed English teacher. She received a BA degree in English from the University of Sydney and a master’s in philosophy, with a focus on Anglo-Irish literature, from Trinity College, Dublin. But her time hanging out with engineering students pointed her towards technology writing. She started her career writing for MIS Magazine and Computerwire during the mid-late 90's. In 2000 she moved to the 451 Group and focused infrastructure computing for the enterprise. As she puts it she covered: "tools for programmers, power systems administrators and data center operators...and virtualization. Lots and lots and lots of virtualization." Then in mid-2013 Rachel joined Ignition Partners as a principal investing in enterprise software companies such as BlueData, Carmelo Systems, StreamSets, StrongLoop and Wit.ai Since 201 Rachel has been an adviser to the Ada Initiative, a non-profit that supports women in open technology and culture. Resources & Links Rachel's email: Rachel [AT] ignitionpartners [DOT] com LinkedIn Twitter: @rachelchalmers Ignition Partners website The Ada Initiative I also mentioned a presentation by Bill Gross of IdeaLab from the Montgomery Summit. Here's his slides for the same presentation at a different conference. The whole thing is good, but slide 20 is the key factors in failure. There's also a 15 minute video of his presentation from a conference in Europe.

From early childhood you always hear the saying “Learn from your mistakes.” In the venture capital industry you frequently hear “Fail fast” to learn and get to the right idea. Great advice. So, for this venture capital podcast I interview venture capital backed entrepreneurs about what they learned when their start-up didn't go as planned. I hope you can learn from their valuable experience. The post Shut-up and Listen! Rachel Chalmers Explains the Biggest Mistake You Can Make appeared first on Venture Capital Coroner's Report.
