Podcast appearances and mentions of mark thiele

In this insightful Nomad Futurist episode, co-hosts Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence engage in a thought-provoking conversation with tech industry veteran, Mark Thiele, most recently serving as CEO and Co-Founder of Edgevana. Together, they explore career growth, the evolving concept of retirement, and the invaluable wisdom he has gained throughout his journey. Thiele reflects on his decision to step away from the corporate grind, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing personal passions and meaningful connections. He candidly shares the sacrifices he made throughout his career and the realization that true fulfillment comes from dedicating time to the people and experiences that matter most: "I'm going to find the time to do the things that I've always wanted to do and spend the time with the people that I've always wanted to spend time with. There was a big portion of my career where I was gone 50-70% of the time year after year." Sharing his unconventional entry into the tech world, Thiele highlights the industry's vast opportunities for growth, reinforcing the idea that determination and hard work can pave the way to success: "I came into the industry without a college degree. I started at the bottom — which is, you know, like it or not, kind of how we're trying to bring in new people. Start at the bottom. The opportunities to move up are almost endless." Thiele also stresses the importance of seeing the bigger picture, urging professionals to go beyond technical skills and understand how their work fits into the broader ecosystem: "Don't let yourself get caught up in just being the best C++ programmer...or best HVAC or airflow planner... Understand what those things are a part of. Understand what influences the reasons for people to use the things that you work on or that you build or that you deploy." Thiele's insights provide valuable guidance for professionals at all stages, emphasizing continuous learning, a broad perspective, and work-life balance in an ever-evolving industry.

The world has changed; work has too. Many people are reassessing both their personal and professional lives. The truth is that the personal and professional worlds have always been intertwined. People never left their humanity outside the front door of the office. Now, due to the increase in remote work, there may not even be a physical office. And the integration of personal and professional life is more obvious today than ever before. Work is being done at home, but so is taking care of the household or kids. There's a lot of life for people to sort out. It's a challenging time, for sure, but also one filled with potential.Companies have an opportunity to take care of their employees in new ways. Or, if they are reluctant to change, employees can leave for other opportunities. Instead of an outdated and unhelpful mentality about controlling workers, companies have to adjust to make sure employees have the freedom they need to do their best work.Part of this is making sure that work culture is good. Leaders don't try to control employees; they make sure their path is smooth to do their work. It's also about providing the right tools at the opportune time to get work done efficiently. Most people are decent and hard working. They want to be productive and to be respected. If companies take care of their core needs, employees will produce, increase ROI, innovate, and care for customers. On this episode of IT Visionaries, Preeti Somal, the VP of Engineering at HashiCorp and Mark Thiele, the CEO and Founder of Edgevana, discuss how companies can transform to create more productive work environments in this new era of increased personal and professional integration. Enjoy the episode!Takeaways:A Good Culture and the Right Tools: In this new world of increased remote work, companies must create an environment where workers feel satisfied and productive in order to retain them. First, create a work culture based on trust, freedom, and support. Then, provide the right technical tools that make work easier for employees to be their best.Control is a Mirage: Most employees care and do quality work. Trying to control workers based upon the fear of a few underperformers is counterproductive. Control isn't even really possible nor should it be desirable. It restricts the freedom that is necessary for most workers to achieve their goals. Instead, performance must be evaluated through common sense and accomplishments rather than surveillance.New Wave of Internal Tools: Low-code and no-code developments are allowing for lots of new tools to be created within companies. These new tools can be micro-targeted to help a few employees, but also have the ability to be designed, developed, and integrated rapidly. With so many new internal applications, it's important to develop an organizational team and platform to track them.---IT Visionaries is brought to you by the Salesforce Platform - the #1 cloud platform for digital transformation of every experience.

This week on The Business of Cloud Native, I spoke with Mark Thiele of Edgevana about the definition of cloud and cloud native, where the line is between cloud and edge and situations where edge is the best option. Highlights: A discussion of situations where edge is the most appropriate option and how edge can help solve problems related to latency, data transfer costs, data sovereignty and network access. Why the right architecture depends on your business needs — there is no one size fits all way to design an edge solution. The relationship between data centers, public clouds and edge devices, including how co-location facilities fit into the equation. How IT is shifting from being a cost center in the business to being a profit center, and how this re-framing of IT is the root of fundamental change. What types of companies can successfully manage a data center and what types of companies should accept that they don't have the skills and just go to the public cloud. Why success in the digital transformation is really a question of prioritization. Do you enjoy the podcast?

Mark Thiele has spent his entire life in and around IT infrastructure, even building his own fair share of data centers. But if there is one thing about the entire process that he finds vexing, it’s the wasted time between when companies start negotiating contracts for data centers to when it actually launches.. So after a 27-year career working with other companies, he set out on his own and started Edgevana with a simple goal: to help companies get to the edge faster.“Getting to the edge may seem hard for some, but it's not for lack of capability,” he said. The problem for most is not that stuff isn't available, but how do I find it? And how do I make quick determinations about what combination of services or capabilities or partners do I need in order to solve the problem or create the opportunity that I'm pursuing for my business?”Mark joined IT Visionaries to discuss why streamlining the buying and implementation process is the key to moving quickly to the edge. Plus, Mark touches on why edge computing continues to be on the rise and what IT leaders should be looking for in edge technology.Main TakeawaysWhat To Solve For: At the end of the day, the main goal of edge computing is to solve two things: t latency, and how data is going to be used.Hit the Easy Button: The negotiation process and implementation of new data centers in the past has been a grueling and time-consuming process. Edgevana is simplifying that process by allowing companies to quickly negotiate contracts and string together equipment at various locations in partnership with other Edgevana users. By doing this, Edgevanaa is giving more users access to the market at a quicker pace.Data Centers Still Exist?: Even with cloud infrastructure, data centers will continue to thrive well into the future because they serve two main purposes: first, companies continue to use them as a more reliable source for some of their aging technologies. Second, even if most companies were to convert their old technology stacks over to the cloud, most of those technologies would still be running from the physical data centers, so enterprises would then be paying to store this data in two different spaces.IT Visionaries is brought to you by the Salesforce Platform - the #1 cloud platform for digital transformation of every experience.

Today’s episode features an interview between Matt Trifiro and Mark Thiele, CEO & Founder of EdgevanaFollowing a 30-year career in IT and a post as the executive director of edge cloud at Ericsson’s Edge Gravity unit, Mark founded Edgevana last year with the goal of disrupting the existing processes for selling and buying co-location, edge, and data center services.In this interview, Mark discusses his mission of lowering barriers-to-entry to deploy capability at the edge, the economics of shared infrastructure, and why he says the opportunity associated with the edge could be bigger than the cloud.Key  Quotes“More and more people see the edge as a way to foster engagement with their customers, but also as a way to solve for business problems that people just assumed for years were intractable.”“Cloud is going to continue to grow...but the edge eventually will be like a combination of enterprise workspace and the iPhone or Android store for applications. And the potential permutations of application and application types that could exist in that kind of future are just way beyond the million-plus apps that you would find in one of the phone stores.”“I think cloud will play a bigger and bigger part going forward, but it's not because it'll take away from edge.”“We're entering a world that edge computing is going to open up that I don't think we've ever seen before.”“There is no way that the infrastructure we currently have at the edge will be enough to accommodate the kind of growth we'll see three to four years from now.”“The opportunity associated with companies like Vapor IO and Edgevana is how do we actually get more value out of pre-existing footprint, beyond just the capacity of the existing white space floor.”“I think one of the biggest areas of opportunity is...our ability to recreate life in all of its new forms, not just the remote office, but distributed entertainment in the vehicle, on the road, in the park, at home, whatever the case may be– because once people taste better, there is no going back. I think that that's likely the area where we'll see the most growth and change over the next 18 months.”SponsorsOver the Edge is brought to you by the generous sponsorship of Catchpoint, NetFoundry, Ori Industries, Packet, Seagate, Vapor IO, and Zenlayer.The featured sponsor of this episode of Over the Edge is Zenlayer.

Mark Thiele and Subhan Jahromi have founded Edgevana and officially launched the site. Service coming soon. What is this thing and why should you care? https://www.edgevana.com

In this episode, Mattias Fridström and Mark Thiele, CEO of Edgevana talk about data center sustainability, if there's a need for more fiber, whether some cloud providers have become too dominant, the need for automation in the wake of COVID-19, and why we should be talking more about WFA instead of WFH.

In this episode, Mattias Fridström and Mark Thiele, CEO of Edgevana discuss the adoption rate of cloud, different ways to connect to the cloud, whether security in the cloud is a good idea, and if the data center location really matters. 

Not all data migrations to the cloud look alike and often times that means that data need to be accesible to where it can drive the most value. On this episode, we discuss how data portability and migration can play a critical role in how you architect your data strategy with industry veteran Mark Thiele, founder and CEO of Edgevana.

From humble beginnings growing up in Hawaii, Mark Thiele found himself doing odd jobs after high school trying to find his way in the world. He found himself in the unlikely position of being a computer technician, and with no formal education quickly became a self-taught engineer; rebuilding computers and then complex software environments such as kernels and operating systems. Mark then got involved with data centers quite by accident, just being in the right place at the right time. Throughout his storied career, he has been involved in every facet of the data center and critical infrastructure; from construction to turn-up, site reliability engineering, DevOps, SaaS, Cloud, and now 5G and Edge. His passion for technology is only surpassed by his drive towards making things more efficient and creating unique solutions to complex problems. As Thiele puts it, the next generation won’t know how to start a fire, make dinner, find and meet friends or simply know the essential life skills without technology. We have created an “information now” culture where everyone expects information at their fingertips in real-time, wherever they may be. Change is inevitable; it is evident by the experiential transformation generated by companies like Amazon, Uber, Lyft, Door Dash, Uber Eats, Facebook, and other such platforms. As the world becomes more connected, and we become increasingly dependent on technology, the infrastructure supporting it becomes society’s lifeblood. We’re on the precipice, and the future could be extremely tenuous if we don’t address the foundational needs of technology and humanity. COVID-19 is an excellent example of mother nature telling us; it’s time to reset. This is an opportunity to work on the basics, a foundation whereby we don’t end up building a house of cards. It’s not the end of the world; it’s a new beginning. According to Thiele, “The technology industry owes the world now; the industry has made a lot of money off the world. The vast majority of that money has been made off of nothing. Facebook is 80% nothing. Google searches. 80% nothing. It's not like we're sending somebody to the moon with the technology built. It's not like we're curing cancer with the technology being built, we are creating a lot of nothing, and they're getting a lot of money for it. And it's time for those industries to figure out a way to help guide the population into the future” Thiele has amassed a proven track record of trendspotting with a deep understanding how those trends would impact the evolution of the information technology industry. As a result, he has become one of the industry’s preeminent thought leaders.
