Give everyone a brief introduction.Topic 2 - We last spoke in 2019, and our goal with that show was to give everyone an introduction to time series databases. There's a link in the show notes for those who want to go back and get a refresher. But, if folks aren't up to speed, give everyone a quick definition of time series and its impacts in recent yearsTopic 3 - First, we need to discuss Physical AI. What is Physical AI, and how is it different from, say, GenAI or Agentic AI? It seems that AI in the mainstream equates LLMs with AI, but that isn't correct. We are talking about deterministic AI, not probabilistic solutions. Can you explain to everyone the difference and why it matters?Topic 4 - Why is the concept of time series so crucial to Physical AI? Additionally, you provided a great analogy comparing time series data collection to low-resolution and high-resolution images. Can you explain to everyone why this is so important?Topic 5 - Let's talk about some use cases. How and where does this intersection of Physical AI and time series impact organizations the most? Is this specific to certain industries (robotics, aerospace, IoT, etc.) or specific collection mechanisms (telemetry, sensor data, etc.)Topic 6 - Are we shifting with AI to a state that is less reactive and more proactive with an active intelligence?Topic 7 - What kind of demands do real-time, modern workflows and data streaming place on the infrastructure? When I think of time series, I think of real-time data, which means ultra-low latency and processing near the source, among other things. FEEDBACK?Email: show at the cloudcast dot netBluesky: @cloudcastpod.bsky.socialTwitter/X: @cloudcastpodInstagram: @cloudcastpodTikTok: @cloudcastpod

Give everyone a brief introduction, including your time at Uber Eats.Topic 2 - How do you define Shadow AI? We hear Shadow AI compared to Shadow IT back at the start of cloud. However, this looks different because everyone's learning curve is much smaller. For Shadow IT to happen, you had to know IT (servers, storage, etc.). Is this the correct way to think about the problem?Topic 3 - How big is the Shadow AI problem today?Topic 4 - Normally, data leaks would be discovered by traditional DLP (data loss prevention) tools. In my experience, those tools have been cumbersome and clunky, and you often face the classic trade-off between user productivity and security, as well as the need to lock down access. How has this mindset evolved in the era of AI? Topic 5 - What happens when AI-powered attacks meet AI-powered defense?Topic 6 - Let's talk about the technical architecture.

Residents of a small village in Waterford say they've been blindsided by plans to build a massive multi-billion-euro data center on the site of a former cheese factory.More than 300 people have objected to the proposed data centre, citing traffic, aesthetic, and environmental concerns.But, why do we need them? Are they environmentally efficient? And just how essential are these data centres when it comes to foreign direct investment?Joining Ciara Doherty to discuss this is Peter Lantry, Managing Director of Equinix, and Jerry MacEvilly, Head of Policy at Friends of the Earth.

Soham Mazumdar, CEO and Co-Founder of WisdomAI, discusses how organizations can break free from the "drowning in data but starving for insights" paradox that plagues modern enterprises. We explore his journey from Google's TeraGoogle project to co-founding and scaling Rubrik through its $5.6 billion IPO, and why he left that success to build an agentic AI approach to Business Intelligence (BI) that transforms how businesses extract value from their data investments.SHOW: 971SHOW TRANSCRIPT: The Cloudcast #963 TranscriptSHOW VIDEO: https://youtube.com/@TheCloudcastNET NEW TO CLOUD?

What was the "aha moment" that made you leave that success to tackle the enterprise data analytics problem with WisdomAI?Topic 3 - Let's define the core problem. Organizations invest heavily in modern data platforms - Snowflake, Databricks, etc. - but there is the term "drowning in data but starving for insights." What's broken in the traditional BI stack that prevents business users from getting answers?Topic 4 - How do agentic AI and BI fit together? WisdomAI introduces the concept of "Knowledge Fabric" and agentic data insights. Break this down for us - how does this fundamentally differ from traditional dashboards and BI tools?Topic 5 - One of the biggest challenges with GenAI in enterprise settings is hallucination. You've emphasized that WisdomAI separates GenAI from answer generation. How does your approach tackle this critical trust issue?Topic 6 - Let's talk about data integration complexity. Your platform works with both structured and unstructured data - Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, but also Excel, PDFs, PowerPoints. How do you handle this "dirty" data reality that most enterprises face?Topic 6a - With so much data, how do most organizations get started?

Give everyone a brief introduction and tell us about your unique journey from government research to Splunk to Databricks to founding Crogl.Topic 2 - Let's start with the current state of cybersecurity and AI. We're seeing headlines about AI being the top cybersecurity concern for 2025, even overtaking ransomware. From your perspective, what's driving this shift and why should organizations be paying attention to the intersection of cybersecurity and AI?Topic 3 - You've described Crogl as an "Iron Man suit" for security analysts. That's a compelling metaphor. Can you break down what you mean by that and how your approach differs from the traditional "reduce alerts" mentality that most vendors have been pushing?Topic 4 - Let's talk about your "knowledge engine" and what you call an “AI for the Enterprise SOC”. You're using compound AI systems with LLMs, smaller models, and knowledge graphs. This sounds quite different from vendors who are just "bolting on" LLMs to existing tools. Walk us through this architectural decision and why it matters.Topic 5 - The cybersecurity industry is experiencing massive alert fatigue - 4,500 alerts per day, with analysts only able to investigate 8-25 of them. Your philosophy is "every alert should be analyzed" rather than filtering them out. That seems counterintuitive to what the market has been doing. How does your autonomous investigation approach actually work in practice?Topic 6 - Where do you see this evolution heading, and what are the implications for SOC teams and security practitioners? Are we heading toward fully autonomous SOCs?FEEDBACK?Email: show at the cloudcast dot netBluesky: @cloudcastpod.bsky.socialTwitter/X: @cloudcastpodI

African countries lag significantly behind G20 nations in digital infrastructure, a gap that threatens to deepen economic inequalities across the continent. Bruce Owen, the South African-born EMEA President of Equinix, one of the world's largest digital infrastructure companies, is determined to change that. In an interview with BizNews, Owen reflects on his journey from backpacking through Europe to leading one of the UK's most secure data centres. Now based in London, he oversees Equinix's operations across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, and is spearheading efforts to expand the company's footprint on the continent. Equinix opened its first International Business Exchange (IBX) data centre in Germiston, South Africa, in October 2024, a strategic move to strengthen local connectivity and support digital transformation. “As a proud South African, there's nothing I want more than to bring robust digital infrastructure to the continent,” Owen said. He also expressed renewed optimism about South Africa's energy future, citing improved governance and a more stable outlook for the national grid.

They are keeping the details close to the vest.10% have allocated about 3-5% of their IT budgets to AI, typically from a C-level mandate, and have given it to Microsoft or Google. They have checked “the business is AI-enabled” and signaled to the market that they have fully embraced AI. The market is rewarding these companies at higher multiples. 85% aren't sure what use-cases to focus on, have unrealistic expectations during POCs, and are focused on the “no” areas instead of their own learning curves. Enterprises don't have great visibility into AI costs, and limited baselines of what AI should cost - pay for outcomes, pay for seats, pay for tokens, or pay for GPUs?Enterprises don't have easy access to GPUs outside of via SaaS services - makes it challenging for Private or Sovereign AI demand to be metRight now, there is no simple way for Enterprises to build AI AgentsRight now, there is no simple way for Enterprises to share AI experience / learning curve - AI is a very individualized experienceFEEDBACK?Email: show at the cloudcast dot netTwitter/X: @cloudcastpodBlueSky: @cloudcastpod.bsky.socialInstagram: @cloudcastpodTikTok: @cloudcastpod

Tell us about your background and your involvement in Cybersecuity.Topic 2 - Let's start with the core challenge. You've said that "if only AI can defend against weaponized AI" - what specific gap in traditional email security did you identify that led to this philosophy? How are AI-powered phishing attacks fundamentally different from what we've seen before?Topic 3 - How does this attack vector demonstrate the limitations of rule-based security systems, and why can't traditional pattern matching keep up?Topic 4 - Let's break down your TRACE (Threat Reasoning and AI Correlation Engine) architecture. You've described it as "LLM-as-master" rather than "LLM-as-add-on." What does this fundamental architectural difference mean for threat detection, and how does it help?Topic 5 - You discuss "pre-campaign detection," which involves identifying potential phishing campaigns weeks before emails are sent. This sounds like moving from reactive to predictive security. How does your system correlate technical intelligence with business context to achieve this early warning capability?Topic 6 - From an implementation standpoint, how do organizations integrate LLM-powered reasoning into their existing security stacks?

Give everyone a quick introduction.Topic 2 - We hear all the time about unstructured data and the continual growth in the Enterprise. I've heard numbers of upwards of 80% of all corporate data is unstructured. I've worked at several companies and supported a significant number of customers over the years, and I can count on one hand how many say they have “control” of their data. How did this come to be, and is the problem as big as I think?Topic 3 - The second part of this, and this might be an even bigger problem, is how much of the data is used? Too many needles in the haystack, if you will. How does Agentic AI address this challenge, and where do traditional document management systems fail?Topic 4 - We've talked about data quality in the past on the show, and I'm wondering if this also becomes an issue. Let's say you have a bunch of draft documents leading up to the final version. Is it possible that improper version control and/or we're back to a data quality problem of finding the “final version” needle in the haystack? How does AI prevent this and also not hallucinate an answer that may not be true?Topic 5 - Some have called AI's ability to absorb and report on data just fancy search. What are your thoughts on this? Where and how does traditional search differ from Agentic AI management?Topic 6 - I also see this as being so much more than indexing and reporting on documents. There is also the concept of automation and workflows that agentic AI can improve upon. What use cases are your customers implementing?Topic 7 - Where do you think the industry will go in the next 2-3 years?FEEDBACK?Email: show at the cloudcast dot netBluesky: @cloudcastpod.bsky.socialTwitter/X: @cloudcastpodInstagram: @cloudcastpodTikTok: @cloudcastpod

How important to customers about the technologies under their applications, or do the economics and control aspects play a bigger role in their decisions? Topic 5 - I'm often asked if there is a model about when it makes more sense to use on-demand service vs. more fixed services. Is there a rule of thumb (e.g. longevity of an application, amount of change, etc.) that you've found drives the most success at picking the right environment for applications?Topic 6 - OpenMetal could be described as a public or private cloud service.
