Helping organizations adopt and manage the cloud – Fujitsu

Since it is not a trivial task to set-up and manage hybrid cloud scenarios across the business, stakeholders often would like to better understand who can offer the critical capabilities to cover all aspects around projects of this size and importance. Hence this blog investigates building blocks and frameworks as a replicable and reliable approach.

Dedication

In this second edition I also included other emerging clouds, next to the leading ones Azure, AWS and GCP. You will also find content about Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Alibaba Cloud. Next to […]

Change is the business workout

Digital transformation is about technology. It’s probably the first mistake enterprises make when they start thinking about digital transformation. No: digital transformation is about change. Let’s illustrate that with an example. I do regular workouts. Lifting weights, that kind of stuff. Workouts change my body. In a sense you could compare that with the technology: the […]

Why cloud posture management should be top of mind in 2023

You are in the cloud with your organization. And yes: you did think about securing your workloads in the cloud. Installed firewalls. Applied zero-trust principles with, for example, least privilege.

The concept was copied to a table with DevOps tools by XebiaLabs. Today, the periodic […]

Obviously, I’m taking some time off as well – and luckily we are allowed to travel again, so spending some quality time with family in respectively Denmark, Sweden and later this year in Hungary’s wonderful capital Budapest. But the holiday seasons for me mostly mean time to […]

Searching for ikigai: a personal note

Something that makes life worth living. These are big words, but in its very essence it’s about passion. Ikigai binds […]

Why the Amex Armegeddon is a Blessing in Disguise during Digital Transformation. 

(And a fantastic driver for implementing a #FinOps practice) Most cloud consultants and architects will recognize this. Well, I hope they recognize this. We all have our own accounts in one or more public clouds such as AWS, Azure and Google Cloud (GCP for short). I run small demo environments in these clouds and I […]
