Twilio (and many others) do programmable communications
CPaaS (think atomic APIs), business messaging (SMS, IP, email), aggregation, authentication, SIP trunking, CCaaS, automation tech, IoT, and much more…
Doing telecoms/communications in a web way is changing the market now and into the future, different trajectory to telcos
Then introduce some of the fun we have planned over the coming month, including live sessions on 7th and 8th Dec, see the agenda for the details. We are hoping to run TADSummit 2022 in Aveiro, Portugal in the middle of November. That is dependent on a new COVID variant NOT emerging.
CPaaS has been around for over a decade but in the last three years it emerged as one of the fastest-growing segments within business communications. Service providers have been an integral part of the value chain from the beginning but the market has been largely defined by CPaaS providers. In this webinar we look at the CPaaS competitive landscape and the implications for service providers looking to benefit from this opportunity.

Wholesale consolidation will continue and margins will be squeezed (in the medium to long term)
Applications are necessary for margin growth
Application focus will move into conversations, insight, and customer experience (customers get to what they want faster)
In 2021: UCaaS ($33B), CCaaS ($18B), CPaaS ($11B), Business Messaging ($6B), Identity verification ($4B with TAM of $25B - $55B as its all about customer experience), Automation tech ($6B with TAM of $30B) – $75B+ in 2021.
It’s a smart phone: voice, messaging (SMS and IP), camera (video and pictures), browser (signing documents, all your online processes), all the contextual information about the device and the user.
Unprecedented consolidation through 2020 into 2021, mainly within programmable communications. We’re going to see in the coming years are more enterprise / web companies joining this spree. Will Okta need more than 2FA for mobile authentication?
Think of Programmable Communications as telecoms done in a web way. Question: are telcos or enterprise/web companies more likely to act fast?
Programmable Communications will continue to live in interesting times, even after the pandemic!

CXTech Landscape Across Asia by Alan Quayle for TADSummit Asia 2020Alan Quayle
CXTech Landscape Across Asia by Alan Quayle, with the support of hundreds of people across CXTech
The main updated include:
Added another 200+ companies (bottoms-up analysis)
Expanded list of global VoIP providers and CXTech companies
Expanded list of master agents and distributors (mainly North America, international TBC)
Added channel and telco contributions to the revenues
Updated projections to include global recession for H2 2020 and H1 2021.
Most collaboration providers are not impacted – slight acceleration for some
Call center is initially not impacted, slight downturn in H1 2021
Usage based businesses impacted in H2 2020, e.g. CPaaS.
Will update downturn model as company results get announced through 2020.
Added regionalization of revenues (simple Americas, EMEA, Asia split)
Below I show the gap for Asia on CXTech earnings for CPaaS. In the presentation you can also see the gap for enterprise VoIP, particularly for innovative smaller providers. Put simply, revenue earned in Asia is going to North America.
Hence why for TADSummit Asia 2020 we're trying to help close the gap through:
Encourage the Rise of Open Source Telecom Software across Asia
Open Source Telecom Software Landscape
Sessions from Asterisk, freePBX, Kamailio, OpenSIPS, and dratchio

Supercharging CPaaS Growth & Margins with Identity and Authentication
Aditya Khurjekar, GM Prove Protocol
Mobile networks were designed for communication, yet commerce is driving most of the demand for mobile connectivity today
The growth segments in today’s digital economy benefit from CPaaS APIs for Identity verification, authentication, proofs & claims
Commerce-enabling CPaaS APIs rely on the intrinsic security of mobile network and devices
Deterministic (rather than probabilistic) authentication drastically reduces fraud, hence increases margins
The secure element in mobile devices has been under-utilized by carriers
FIDO standard presents a horizontal application opportunity for hardware based (deterministic) authentication
Authenticated ID verification is key to secure yet seamless digital onboarding, leading to financial inclusion & consumer protection
The needs of the new crypto-based (web3) economy can also be satisfied with smart CPaaS offerings that preserve anonymity/pseudonymity
The imminent ubiquity of eSIMs is timely to fight fraud in the increasingly sophisticated digital & crypto-enabled economy
It’s time for a purpose-built global payments network!

CPaaS Conversational Platforms and Conversational Customer Service – The Experience Gap”?
Ben Waymark, Chief Technology Officer, Webio.
CPaaS players are doing the low hanging, simple conversations via their conversational design and plug in’s to the messenger layer, but what are they really hoping to achieve, and should they be aimed at the developer community?
No-code low-code configurable conversational customer support have done really well by integrating with customer ticketing, and integrating other platforms into their workflows. Kustomer.com was bought for a billion, something is going right there.
Conversational experiences are becoming part of the digital customer experience. What does this look like and why might this be important for other companies to understand?

Time to ditch the ‘dumb-pipe’ – reinventing the core mobile network, to put developers first.
Mike Bromwich, CEO / Co-Founder Stacuity & Tim Dowling, Co-Founder Stacuity
The emergence of public cloud has revolutionized the way developers can muster and deploy virtual infrastructures, as and when required.
In contrast, mobile networks are still rigidly defined and protected by operators, who are unable or unwilling to offer such control and flexibility.
As a result, the mobile network operates as little more than a dumb-pipe (unless you have lots of patience and deep pockets).
Addressing this problem requires a different approach, not just the creation of a thin façade over legacy network elements.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Messaging
Market Size
• Biased by bottom-up
CPaaS-focused build,
missing lots of ‘traditional’
telco related A2P revenues.
• Similar CAGR BM = 31%,
CPaaS CAGR = 29%.
• Not trying to be complete
on A2P – focus is API related
(but its all converging).

traditional A2P growth is not
22%). Think of it as ‘API’
Wholesale.
