Diese Woche hatte ich ein bisschen Bammel – nicht vor meiner Gesprächspartnerin, die finde ich richtig toll, aber vor der Welt, in der sie unterwegs ist. Salwa Houmsi ist Musikjournalistin und hat sich in den letzten Jahren insbesondere in der Rapszene einen Namen gemacht. Genau die ist mir aber irgendwie immer noch fremd, ich finde da nicht so recht einen Zugang – und darüber habe ich mit Salwa gesprochen und viel gelernt. Falls ihr euch mit Hip Hop besser auskennt als ich, habt ihr sie bestimmt schon auf dem Schirm – zum Beispiel aus dem Radio bei Fritz vom rbb, von dem investigativen Instagram- und Facebook-Kanal „Jäger und Sammler“ oder ihrem eigenen Podcast, „Vor der Mio“ auf Spotify, für den sie die größten deutschen Rapstars zu sehr persönlichen Gesprächen trifft. Persönlich wurde es bei uns auch, denn neben Rap und Journalismus haben wir unter anderem über Salwas Familie gesprochen, über den Bürgerkrieg in Syrien, wo ihr Vater herkommt, und über Sexismus im Musikbusiness. Das ist eins der Themen, bei denen sich Salwa besonders engagiert. Anfang des Jahres hat sie zum Beispiel eine Kampagne mitorganisiert, um Konzerte des amerikanischen R&B-Sängers R. Kelly in Deutschland zu verhindern. ►►► Hier noch ein paar interessante Links: Jäger & Sammler: „RechtsTube“ https://www.facebook.com/JaegerundSammlerDE/videos/414852396092745/ Deutschland3000: „1 Familie - 2 Kulturen“ https://www.facebook.com/Deutschland3000/videos/280879492628514/ ►►► Folgt Salwa auf Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salwa.benz oder hört ihren Podcast „Vor der Mio“ auf Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/18gC0WLyem0MbQSzvzGFGy ►►► Lob, Kritik, Wunschgäste?

On the Schmooze Podcast: Leadership | Strategic Networking | Relationship Building
Today’s guest says if you had asked her former lawyer self if she imagined herself in the career she has today, the likely response would have been: “ARE YOU KIDDING ME?” Speaker and author of the “Build Your Dream Network: Forging Powerful Relationships in a Hyper-Connected World,” she has been lauded from Forbes to Fast Company for her networking skills and Twitter acumen. Her entire career story is a networked one, from her first career as a lawyer to being invited to join non-profit and startup boards, to dine with Malala, and then to writing her book and so much more. She believes success is not simply a question of what you know, how hard you work, or even who you have the good fortune of bumping into. Instead, she believes success in a hyper-connected world comes down to who knows what you know. Please join me in welcoming J. Kelly Hoey.

Docker went from being a small startup to an enterprise company that changed the way people think about their infrastructure to now, where its relevance is somewhat minimal. The conversation is no longer around the container level. Docker has become commonplace. Today, we’re talking to Jérôme Petazzoni, formerly of Docker. While he was with the company for about 8 years, Docker definitely experienced a roller coaster ride. Some of the highlights of the show include: Amount of work conducted on the enterprise vs. community editions Docker was so widely adopted because its core technology was open source Challenge is to build a viable business and revenue model for the long run Similarities between Docker and Red Hat open source platforms Docker went from six people working in a garage to having a few hundred employees and $1.3 billion valuation Changes happened, but they were gradual; the changes were necessary to be a profitable and sustainable company Contingent of internal and external people believed that Docker was the answer for whatever problem surfaced; Docker would save you, but not always Balancing Act: Pushing forward with a correct message and regulating enthusiasm Networking and Docker for dummies; confusion and problems of things not working as expected have been resolved Things will continue to shift; Kubernetes and the orchestration battle What was unthinkable, could happen by companies pushing the envelope and making progress Will who you have as your Cloud provider stop mattering? It depends. All major Cloud providers plan to offer managed Kubernetes services and what Jérôme thinks of them Jérôme’s opinion on whether Kubernetes will follow this same path as Docker What does the road ahead look like for infrastructure automation? There is potential and lots of best practices in Cloud environments.
