This week we welcome back Kyle Traynor to the podcast to discuss his passion for business development and education. Kyle is the founder of Elite Vitality Mastery, an educational organization for business owners in the fitness industry that provides the knowledge required to attain personal potential and create financial freedom. He also hosts the podcast Pivotal Conversations where he provides free content around successful business development.         Kyle provides insight into the approach for Elite Vitality Mastery with a brief discussion of the 3 pillars of a successful business model: Cash Flow, Intelligence and Branding. Kyle relays the importance of learning how to keep money, not just making more of it, as most other “business coaches” in the industry tend to advise. The duo discuss the place of social media in business and how a large following does not necessarily equate to a large income. Jordan revisits his metaphor of the three-legged stool, in which a strong foundation for any business or personal plan involves standing on multiple, well developed principles. Kyle and Jordan chew on: the notion of developing a brand and its role in entrepreneurial success, how much “hard work” is really involved in building your business, and the personal attributes of adaptability, self-awareness and self criticism.

Designers play a critical role in software development. They impact not just what users see on the screen, but impact important decisions about product direction. In this episode of Pivotal Conversations, Nate Clinton, managing director at Designit, a unit of Wipro, and Tim McCoy, Senior Director of Design at Pivotal, talk about the evolution of design thinking in software development and share best practices for designing modern software.

What's life without a little chaos? And why not a little chaos impacting your production systems? Sounds scary, but turns out intentionally introducing random errors into production systems helps identify vulnerabilities so you can do something about them before they result in major disruptions. In this episode of Pivotal Conversations, Gremlin's Tammy Butow, one of the leading practitioners of chaos engineering (as the practice is known), talks about the benefits of and shares best practices for introducing chaos to your production systems.

Nobody likes to be uncomfortable, by definition. And experienced software developers and architects, like all of us, want all the answers. "But if you are really trying to achieve the agility that transformation promises, you have to let go of some of that," says Bob Cunningham, Senior Manager, Enterprise Application Architecture at TD Ameritrade. In this episode of Pivotal Conversations, recorded on the floor of Cloud Foundry Summit 2019 in Philadelphia, Bob chats about his experience leading digital transformation efforts at the online brokerage, including the importance of being comfortable with being uncomfortable.

Enterprises across industries are modernizing legacy applications to improve performance and provide great customer experiences. But it doesn't how snappy your application is or how pretty the user interface if the data supporting the application can't keep up. In this episode of Pivotal Conversations, Redis Labs' Adi Foulger and Cassie Zimmerman talk about the challenges of modernizing your data architecture.

Most enterprises start their cloud-native journeys with lots of enthusiasm and big plans. But reality often sets in when they try to scale transformations by modernizing hundreds, sometimes thousands of legacy apps. The biggest digital transformation roadblock? It's a lack of cloud-native skills, says HCL's Alan Flower. In this episode of Pivotal Conversations, Alan shares tips and strategies for overcoming the cloud-native skills gap.

In this week's episode of Pivotal Conversations, Dormain and Jeff chat with Greg Meyer, a distinguished engineer at Cerner, a maker of healthcare software. Greg talks about a new specification he helped develop to achieve interoperability and easier data movement between healthcare systems. He also explains how the company is modernizing its development practices to increase the pace of innovation.

Let's finally get to the punchline on this “cloud-native enterprise architect” quest. Here, Matt Curry (https://twitter.com/mattjcurry), Andrew Clay Shafer (https://twitter.com/littleidea), and I (https://twitter.com/cote) discuss the things that would motivate such a role and try to chart out what functions the cloud-native EA would serve. This still doesn't answer the question perfectly, but it does point towards good why's and even some how's. We do alright at trying to pull it all together. Rough Outline Business “outcomes.” “So what is it you'd say you do here?” Marketing and sales for tech decision making - getting budget, etc. The EA Strawperson - biz/IT alignment, governance, proscribing stacks Risk-modeling and procurement costs get better EA as the ROI whisperer. SRE book discussions, Pivotal Conversations (https://soundcloud.com/pivotalconversations/the-google-sre-book-with-andrew-shafer) #58 (https://soundcloud.com/pivotalconversations/the-google-sre-book-with-andrew-shafer) (Andrew and Coté). The technology, and what's new? AWS RDS as an (almost) end-to-end example. So, EA's jobs to this point: business stuff… versus defining the platform and tech choices (e.g., “use this pagination library or die!”). But: product people do the business stuff… you prescribe one platform/PaaS… and then most teams now choose their own stuff above the platform. And doesn't microservices do the rest…? Cloud-native EA's probably spend a lot more attention to process, like SRE-thinking… reducing duplication of services… someone has to have a global, big picture view of everything. Being a change agent: boot-strapping to this DevOps/cloud-native/blah blah The ultimate goal: the business wants to evolve quickly, try new things to try to grow and defend itself quicker; the IT must work, or, at least, be resilient; I don't want to pay a lot for this muffler; making it easy to do the right thing. # Background Past discussions on cloud-native EA: Pivotal Conversations #72 (https://soundcloud.com/pivotalconversations/the-fat-baby-in-the-water-cloud-native-enterprise-architecture-ep-072) and Coté Show #36 (http://www.cote.show/36).

Last week's Cloud Foundry Summit was full of large organizations talking about revamping their IT strategy to be cloud native. We heard from the likes of Comcast, Allstate, Daimler, and ExpressScripts who each have been using Pivotal Cloud Foundry as the central enabler of their cloud strategies. These companies are modernizing how they create and deliver software, well on the journey to becoming software defined businesses. As Greg Otto from Comcast said, “We placed a bet on Cloud Foundry. We get features in days, not weeks, and scale takes minutes, not months.” In this new format for Pivotal Conversations, Richard Seroter and Coté talk about these stories and other happenings from the Cloud Foundry Summit. We also cover some recent news like the Serverless Summit and the the ruling in Google/Oracle case over APIs.
