My Cloud Computing Reflections
Week 2: SaaS Services
Transcript:
Welcome to my Could Computing reflections. My name is Charles Roberts. This is the second week where I listen to a new podcast and go over what new topics I learned, how it challenges my initial thoughts or beliefs, and how it applies to my personal or professional life.
This week, I listened to episode 162 of Cloud Cast titled Building and Managing Scalable SaaS Services with special guest Manoj Chaudhary. In this podcast, Manoj discusses what he learned from his years of working in a business called Loggly. There was plenty discussed in that podcast, and I learned valuable information that I had not considered until this week.
According to Manoj, Amazon web services or AWS is what helped SaaS break into the mainstream, becoming more accessible to business and individuals. AWS is only one of many popular SaaS services. These SaaS services include GitHub, microsoft365, Zoom Dropbox, Intuit, and much more (Newcombe, 2020). I utilize some of these services for storing and retrieving documents and files across multiple computers and operating systems.
Another aspect I learned is the risks of log management. Logging makes up a portion of big data, and it requires a lot of maintenance. According to Manoj, business should prioritize building company value over logging management. Businesses, especially smaller ones, are better off automating or outsourcing log management. I experienced this for my senior design project. Dexter Manufacturing is in Albion OH and specialized in the production of vehicle axels. They called upon Trine seniors like me to work on a better method of organizing their big data to prevent the risks of scope creep.
To close out this podcast, Cloud Cast provided insightful and needed information regarding SaaS with the help of Menaj. I haven’t heard of the phrase logging management up until listening to this podcast. I always hear big data when refering to IT infrastructure, but I haven’t wondered what make up a businesses’ Big Data. Data management take a lot of understanding and education, so companies prefer to outsource it to cloud services as opposed to spending most of their revenue towards logging and data managent. With that in mind, the best career path for cloud computing would be to pursue a similar path to Menaj, that is, to start up my own Saas for businesses to outsource, and later sell the service to any corporation.
That’s all for now, talk to you soon, and thank you. Podcast out.
