  • In this episode we are looking at how the public sector is embracing the hybrid cloud model and what steps need to be taken to be certain our information, as members of the public, is kept safe.

    It’s a big issue. In 2021 and 2022 the largest percentage of cyber threats and attacks were reported by governments and the public sector, according to the European Parliament.

    So, what operational security strategies are being tailored for public sector needs? How does regulation differ between the public and private sector when it comes to hybrid cloud security? And how can leaders in health, education, the military, public transport and law enforcement ensure that adopting a hybrid cloud model is a secure option?

    To fill us in is Simon Leech, Director at Hewlett Packard Enterprise’s Center of Excellence for Cybersecurity and Digital Risk Management.

  • Tech is having a transformative effect on manufacturing, nowhere more so than in car manufacturing. IT is involved in every step of the process chain: from design to manufacture. And whilst advancements in technology have sped up the process; that also comes with its own challenges. The methods to train and monitor robots, as well as humans, are constantly evolving as AI plays a bigger part in the process.

    And then, of course, there's integrating the manufacturing and sales process, as customers demand more and more customisability in their vehicles. In this episode, we're joined by Peter Grendel, Managing Director of ABAT+, to look at the challenges and opportunities that come with using modern technology and sustainable engineering in order to get a brand new car from concept to production.

    This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

  • Despite a huge boom in technological innovation around the world and an expanding tech industry, the number of graduates who have come from STEM subjects remains relatively low. Just over a quarter of university graduates in the UK have studied a STEM course, and in the US it’s less than 1-in-5. Within that, there is still a huge disparity in gender after secondary school compulsory education.

    In this episode we’ll be looking at how we can engage the next, and future generations in science and technology-led professions, and the importance of role models in showing what can be achieved by a career in STEM, with former NASA rocket scientist, STEM ambassador, entrepreneur and confirmed future astronaut, Aisha Bowe.

  • Convergence is an idea that’s been bubbling under the surface of IT operations for some time. The concept involves bringing Dev Ops, IT ops and SRE under one roof, eliminating silos of expertise and data and opening up an organization’s IT infrastructure for the benefit of the whole group.

    It could be a game changer for efficiency, with some estimates suggesting 40% savings on IT infrastructure by reducing bottlenecks and duplicated workloads. But the technology to achieve convergence is only just becoming available… Why, and what does it mean?

    Here to explain is Varma Kunaparaju, Co-Founder and CEO at OpsRamp, an IT Operations management as-a-service platform that was recently acquired by Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

  • There’s an acute shortage of candidates for tech jobs – in fact, research suggests tens of millions of potential roles are going unfilled. In a poll with global technology chiefs conducted by MIT’s ‘Technology Review’, a majority found that they weren’t getting enough candidates for roles, and those who did apply lacked necessary skills.
    Clearly, there’s a problem here. So what can tech companies do to bring more talent through the door? Could building a baseline of investment in new, or even unqualified, talent be a solution?

    Joining us today is Maninder Randhawa, Early Careers Leader for Hewlett Packard Enterprise in the UKIMEA region, to find out if apprenticeships could be the answer.

  • According to the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs, the number of satellites has risen dramatically since 2021. But has this translated into greater equity in terms of connectivity? How does this boom help other, less connected parts of the world? And, what, if anything, does this mean for enterprises?

    This week's guest is Isabelle Mauro, Director General of the Global Satellite Operators Association (GSOA). Isabelle has spent her career advocating for more equity in connectivity and is also a Non-Executive Member of the Global Advisory Board of Women In Tech, a organisation that provides women with access to technology and training worldwide.
