Bob Baxley is a design leader who has shaped products used by billions at Apple, Pinterest, Yahoo, and ThoughtSpot. During his eight years at Apple, he led design for the online store and the App Store, and witnessed the iPhone's transformative launch while working under Steve Jobs. A student of history turned software craftsman, Bob discovered his calling after exploring photography, filmmaking, and music, ultimately recognizing software as the most powerful creative medium of our time. Bob champions the moral obligation designers have to reduce frustration in people's daily digital interactions.What you'll learn:• Why design should report to engineering, not product• The “Beatles principle”—why the best products come from teams of 4 to 6, not 40 to 60• How to create design tenets vs. principles (with real examples)• The counterintuitive reason to delay drawing or prototyping as long as possible• Why software is fundamentally a medium, like film or music (not just a tool)• Why Bob “bounced off the culture” at Pinterest, and lessons from failure• The lunar landing story that teaches us about championing radical ideas• How to evaluate if a company truly values design before joining• The moral obligation of software makers to build great products—This entire episode is

Full disclosure for everyone out there, I worked for Tobi at Nutanix. Give everyone a brief introduction and a little about your background.Topic 2 - This is a throwback for our long-time listeners. We had Ben Hindman on episode #211 almost 10 years ago, when D2IQ was Mesosphere, and we also spoke to Dave Lester, who was at Twitter back in 2014. I'm not going to ask you to catch everyone up on 10 years of your company and the history… but I will encourage everyone to go back and listen to that podcast. It is an excellent snapshot of the early days of cloud native and containers. Today, we will talk a bit about the state of cloud native. The most recent KubeCon EU was a few months ago. What were your thoughts around the event and the current state of the industry? Topic 3 - What are the most prominent challenges organizations face today with Cloud Native adoption? You hear about the complexity, you hear about Kubernetes is a platform to build platforms… still true?Topic 4 - Where do you think Cloud Native goes in the next 2-3 years? What technologies or design patterns (besides AI, we'll talk about that later) evolve, and where does the next round of adoption come from?Topic 5 - Let's talk about storage and data services quickly. Data services for K8s is messy, really messy at times. Give everyone an overview of the problem at scale and the challenges, especially in multi-cloud environments, which I'm finding more and more.Topic 6 - I'd be remiss if I didn't mention AI and its impact in the space. AI came along and sucked all the air out of the room for a time. How do you think about AI today, now that the dust has settled a bit? Is it just an “app” to run on top? How will AI impact cloud native longer term?FEEDBACK?Email: show at the cloudcast dot netBluesky: @cloudcastpod.bsky.socialTwitter/X: @cloudcastpodInstagram: @cloudcastpodTikTok: @cloudcastpod

The rise of IT generalists is becoming increasingly significant as the industry grapples with a growing talent gap. A recent report by Auvik reveals that a staggering 78% of IT professionals feel that work-related stressors hinder their ability to improve their skills, with 60% experiencing burnout. As baby boomers retire at an accelerated pace, the workload is shifting to senior employees, intensifying stress and workload issues. The report highlights the necessity for IT professionals to possess a broad range of knowledge across various IT functions, emphasizing the integration of artificial intelligence and automation to alleviate these challenges.Managed service providers (MSPs) are facing heightened security demands, yet there are concerns about whether clients are allocating their budgets effectively. A series of market reports indicate that organizations are managing an average of 45 cybersecurity tools, which calls for a streamlined approach to security controls. The landscape of cybersecurity is evolving, with a notable shift towards generative AI and the need for comprehensive strategies for machine identity and access management. MSPs are encouraged to help clients prioritize security investments based on risk rather than simply increasing spending.Recent product announcements from companies like Scion AG, Huntress, and Cisco reflect the industry's response to these challenges. Scion AG has launched Scion Guard360, a cybersecurity solution aimed at small and medium-sized enterprises, while Huntress introduced a sensitive data mode to aid compliance with the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification. Cisco's Meraki for Government solution has achieved FedRAMP authorization, underscoring the importance of compliance in enhancing security for federal agencies. These developments highlight the trend towards automation and AI-driven solutions in the security sector.The backlash against Broadcom's acquisition of VMware is resulting in significant financial gains for competitors like Nutanix and Scale Computing. Nutanix reported a 16% revenue increase, driven by customers seeking alternatives to VMware, while Scale Computing experienced a remarkable 400% growth in enterprise demand. This shift in buying behavior indicates that organizations are actively looking for new solutions, presenting an opportunity for IT consultants to guide clients through the migration process. As the market evolves, understanding alternatives to VMware could provide a competitive advantage for service providers.
