Architect Tomorrow

What components or attributes are needed in Enterprise Architecture for ML? Beyond MLOps - how do we risk manage the deployment and integration of AI/ML into our organisations. In particular the latest generation of LLM type models?

What are the architectural and risk challenges of deploying Generative AI into enterprises? In this episode we get into the details of what is needed to deploy and integrate LLMs such as GPT safely and scalably within organisations.

We welcome Chris Hodson back to the channel after 2 years! We catch up with what he has been up to and what is top of mind for him in his CISO role. 

We covered topics including: 

- What are the key things CISOs and Security Architects need to be focussing on right now (particularly in a time of cost constraints 

- How technical does a CISO need to be? 

- How do you get on top of data and privacy related security challenges? 

- How to manage the latest round of regulations and compliance challenges?  Chris's first episode https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAV2JiL4_Bc has been incredibly popular 

- it's no wonder as he is such an articulate and knowledgeable speaker on cybersecurity!

Serverless Computing - Sustainability and Architectural considerations. 

Oliver talks to Daniel Bass CTO and Co-Founder of Zeti (a clean vehicle financing start up) about effective Serverless Computing.  

Daniel gives a quick background of his career in Financial Services and then at Zeti. 

Talks about what Zeti do (and why he is so passionate about it) 

Goes on to cover how mad it is to run traditional servers all the time 

Then we talk about effective Serverless Architectural thinking and the architecture transformation needed to really take advantage of cloud native.

Confidential Computing and the future of the shared responsibility model. 

In this cloud native security architecture episode of #ArchitectTomorrow Oliver talks to Christophe Parisel and Pete Chamberlain.  

We start with a state of the nation on Cloud Security in 2023 and then move into different layers of Trusted Computing and then explore confidential computing and the impact it has on the shared responsibility model.

The Architect Tomorrow community returns for the annual 2 part look back and look ahead for the 3rd year running! This is the full natural, unscripted honest conversation across tech, business and society thinking about what we think is in store in 2023. We talk about a range of tech topics including AI (of course we touch on Large Language Models / OpenAI GPT), metaverse, social media, automation, data, event driven architectures. But crucially we also talk about impacts to people and society - cultural norms, mental health, children and education.

Sally Pritchard - an Architect Tomorrow regular also returns for the 3rd time and Tom returns from the 2021 predictions video. Emma Taylor the founder of Chief Disruptor joins alongside regular host Oliver Cronk now the Technology Director at  @ScottLogicLtd

#ArchitectTomorrow community returns for the traditional 2 part look back and look ahead for the 3rd year running! This is a very natural unscripted honest conversation across tech, business and society about the year we've just had.  We look back at 2022 in review - considering what predictions we got right and wrong, what was unexpected and what were the stand out tech changes we experienced. What has stood out to each of us individually and within our business this year. We including things such as the first practical applications of Quantum technologies, Event Driven Architecture and Cloud hitting their stride, experiments with metaverse and of course AI and ML gets quite a lot of discussion.

Last year we asked if predictions are dead. A case in point of this is we would never have imagined there would be a significant war in Europe. This has been heart-breaking but it has also created the biggest shocks and knock on impacts of the year. Added to labour challenges this has pushed us into energy price fuelled inflation. Which in turn is getting us all to think about our energy usage a lot more.

In this episode Oliver Cronk is joined by Johanna Eiramo of the Finnish National Gallery, Lilly Pencheva a Web 3 and Blockchain specialist (sharing her own personal views) and Colin Eberhardt CTO of Scott Logic. They talk about a super hyped platform and proposed future architecture - metaverse and Web 3. Johanna talks about her experiments with metaverse for the Finnish National Gallery project she is working on. We also talk about the vision and hopes for the future of the web and whether web 3 is able to deliver on these expectations.

Oliver talked to Ben McCarthy founder of SalesForce Ben in London to talk about the origin story of SF Ben and his take on the Salesforce ecosystem.  NOTE! This episode was recorded earlier in 2022 when Oliver was still working for Tanium (he is now at Scott Logic). Oliver touches on Tanium a couple of times in this episode but Architect Tomorrow is no longer supported / sponsored by Tanium.

Oliver talked to Ted Neward in March 2022 about a wide range of Software Engineering career related topics. From career progression into Leadership, management and architecture (and the difference between them) to DevOps and Agile. Ted has a great voice and experiences to listen to - so whilst this is a longer episode than usual it's full of great insight and I'm confident you'll want to listen to the end! Note that there is some mild swearing in this episode. If you'd like to see this as a video podcast you can find it on YouTube on the Architect Tomorrow channel.  

Mina Frost returns and joins Sanjay Joshi and Oliver Cronk to discuss the HealthTech 150, diversity in healthcare and the intersection of tech and medicine.  A fascinating conversation on how medicines and treatments could be transformed by technology and the impacts and considerations.  Whether you are a layperson or a medical professional this episode is very thought provoking!
