Amazon Web Services (AWS) forever changed the world of IT when it entered the market in 2006 offering services for pennies on the dollar. While its prices have come down significantly over the years, many companies learned the hard way that moving to the public cloud didn’t always achieve the cost savings they expected.
In fact, organizations have frequently noticed public cloud bills two to three times higher than expectations(1). This doesn’t mean that moving to the public cloud is a mistake. The public cloud provides huge benefits in agility, responsiveness, simplified operation, and improved innovation.
The mistake is assuming that migrating to the public cloud without implementing management, governance and automation will lead to cost savings. To combat rising cloud infrastructure costs, use these proven best practices for cost reduction and optimization to make sure you are getting the most out of your environment.

Join us in Hsinchu on Thursday, April 10, 2014 as we bring Taiwanese semiconductor and electronic systems companies and engineering users together with Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) ISVs to learn about cloud deployments. Hear about successes in industries directly related to EDA/CAE, and consider your own POC and production projects with AWS best-practices.
“We are attending because we think the cloud is a compute model change that is of interest to our customers, which makes it of interest to Cadence. We’re looking forward to conversations with customers to understand their specific interests and timeframes. We appreciate the invitation from Amazon to attend. Amazon is clearly a leader in this space and we anticipate working together on many engagements.”
Larry Drenan, Services Director, Global Design Environment, Cadence
This free, half-day event will focus on commercial HPC use-cases and best practices for design, engineering, and manufacturing of semiconductors and electronic systems using AWS to achieve increased flexibility, reduced development costs, and faster time-to-market.
In recent months, Artificial Intelligence has become the hottest topic in the IT industry. Of course, this has happened before, often with disappointing results: in this talk, we’ll explain why it is different this time.

How Globe Telecom does Primary Backups via StorReduce to the AWS CloudAmazon Web Services
Globe Telecom, a large telecommunications company in the Philippines with over 65 million subscribers, needed a cost-effective and scalable solution for storing primary data backups. Its previous on-premises data domain appliances created expensive hardware silos and a risk of data loss in the event of an ill-timed backup system outage, a vulnerability the company couldn’t afford. StorReduce’s scalable deduplication software solved Globe Telecom’s problem with throughputs and recovery speeds faster than leading backup appliances, enabling them to transfer primary and secondary backup data from backup appliances and tape to the Amazon Cloud. This resulted in a data storage savings of up to 80% and ensured best-of-breed scalability, durability, and recoverability for its data.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
