Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Additionally, government initiatives aimed at improving healthcare infrastructure and the increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases have led to an upward trend in orthopedic surgeries, thereby fueling the market demand for these devices.

Owithout having a robust and quintessential
infrastructure. Just like having a car and few gallon of
fuel does not drive you to reach to your destination, for that one
vital thing you require is well-built road i.e., Infrastructure. In
almost every business verticals good infrastructure plays a
pivotal role in shaping the company’s fortunes. With the growing
adaptability of IT and its applications across the globe, a good IT
infrastructure is essential for the smooth execution of operations.
Amazon Web Services is one such provider which has built a
strong repute of being an exemplary provider of IT infrastructure
needs. The quintessential facets of AWS have been the prime
reason behind its burgeoning popularity over the past decade. Its
ability to provide computing power, storage options, networking
and databases with on-demand and flexible payments options
have already pulled more than one million worldwide customers
towards it. From data warehousing to varied deployments tools,
directories to content delivery, over 50 services are available in
just a few mouse clicks with AWS. Their innovative services are
quick to provision without upfront capital expense, allowing
enterprises, start-ups, SMB and customers in the public sector
enterprises to access the building blocks they need to respond
quickly in the changing business circumstances.
AWS’s classic features such as a wide range of server
configurations, database engines, encryption and powerful big
data tools assist businesses to stay focused on their core business
without worrying about IT infrastructure. Its deep visibility into
compliance and governance and enhanced cloud security plays a
crucial part in today’s IT infrastructure landscape. This is the
reason millions of customers are currently leveraging on AWS
cloud products and solutions to build sophisticated applications
with increased flexibility, scalability and reliability. And these
facets and their matchless services have been the prime reason
behind its flourishing popularity which makes AWS the leader in
cloud space. With the on-going trends and research analysis, one
can rightly assume that the AWS will further consolidate its
position and will attain far greater heights in the coming times.

Security, Reliability, Scalability and
Cost-Effectiveness Driving AWS popularity
to the Next-Level
12. DevOps is the sizzling
buzzword on the tip of nearly
every tongue in the IT world
and extending into the business
domain. The promise of faster product
delivery with improved quality and
increased employee productivity in this
neck-to-neck, hypercompetitive
business era, is what’s fascinating IT
and business leaders. Behind the buzz
is a wave of successes with a range of
organizations, from “unicorns” to
“workhorses”, and startups to large
enterprises. DevOps is now viewed as
a major enabler of digital
transformation, with the primary
outcome to deliver improved customer
value.
According to a leading technology
firm, DevOps adoption has increased
from 66 percent in 2015 to 74 percent
in 2016 and among larger enterprises
its adoption is even higher, at 81
percent. The latest numbers for 2017
indicate that 90 percent of
organizations implemented, are
currently implementing, or planning to
implement DevOps. Market research
specialists forecast that the global
DevOps market will grow at a
substantial 19% CAGR during 2016-
2020 periods. But what’s truly exciting
is the intersection of DevOps and cloud
– particularly public cloud, which is an
ideal platform for DevOps. Product
teams, historically having innovation
and execution throttled due to
infrastructure, can now provision their
own infrastructure on demand, using
full automation.
This market growth has caused a surge
in demand for cutting-edge DevOps
solution providers. nClouds is one
such organization, growing from a
startup in 2012 to a credentialed,
award-winning firm delivering
technically innovative and successful
solutions to a long list of clients.
nClouds is a DevOps and cloud
consultancy and solution provider with
deep expertise in modern
infrastructures, particularly Amazon
Web Services (AWS). They provide
expert services for DevOps
(continuous integration & continuous
delivery pipelines, containers,
microservices), managed services
(cloud infrastructures, change
management), cloud migration, plus
world-class 24/7 support.

analytical skills have assisted nClouds
in solving complex problems for
numerous Silicon Valley-based startups

speed of DevOps” since the tool
achieves an improbable balance of
control without sacrificing DevOps

apps to cloud can be a tedious and
complex task, and needs the right tools
and skills. nClouds has a battery of
experienced professionals to move
applications to AWS for improved

The “Special Sauce” in nClouds’
Success
Building and feeding the right
technical team. nClouds believes in
hiring, retaining and incentivizing
technical talent. An engineering-led
organization, the company has
assembled a highly-credentialed,
deeply-skilled team with a diverse set
of talents – engineers, architects,
developers, SREs, sysadmins, and
project managers among its think tank.
The experienced team thrives on
challenges from technically advanced
projects, and is always motivated and
energized to solve complex problems
for clients.
Great clients and a collaborative
engagement model. nClouds also
credits its success to an exceptional
group of clients, ranging from Silicon
Valley-based startups to large
enterprises. The common thread is that
clients are looking to innovate faster
and improve business agility. They see
DevOps and cloud as integral to the
solution, and trust nClouds’
experience. nClouds typically engages
as an extension of the clients’ teams,
with nClouds team members embedded
and participating in client standups and
connected via modern collaboration
tools, like Slack. For most clients,
nClouds provides front-line, 24/7
support for their DevOps and cloud
infrastructure.
Sharing knowledge, applying best
practices. nClouds has a passion for
knowledge-sharing, with two main
objectives: to grow skills continuously,
and to capture and codify the team’s
experience into reusable assets to
achieve better efficiency, best
practices, and client success. Skills
development includes industry
certifications, training, and a common
knowledge database. Applied best
practices include shared processes,
methods, services, APIs, and tools. As
an example, nOps, which is now
available commercially from nClouds
as a SaaS offering, started as an in-
house change management tool
developed and shared by nClouds
services teams on client engagements.
Perspective on AWS Market
nClouds points to AWS's incredible
momentum, fueled by a decade of
experience in complex, production
cloud environments, massive customer
base, and global partner network. All
this makes a powerful ecosystem that
is delivering unparalleled innovation
and a continuous barrage of rich new
AWS features, products and services.
Services like Amazon ECS and EKS
accelerate containerization, and AWS
Step Functions, AWS Lambda, and
Amazon API Gateway make it easy to
build and maintain serverless
deployments. For nClouds and their
clients, it's an exciting place to be.
What’s Next for nClouds
nClouds is continuing to make deep,
technical know-how the focus of its
business model. Credentials,
competencies and reusable assets help
scale the business, provide depth to
source the best teams to tackle clients’
most complex challenges, and ensure
the teams are leveraging best practices
and efficiencies in delivering solutions.
Based on market direction, the nClouds
team sees huge opportunity in helping
enterprise organizations migrate
existing workloads to cloud, as well as
in a continued focus on enabling digital
transformation with DevOps and
modern infrastructures.
AWS's decade of experience in complex cloud environments is generating
awesome innovation. We, along with our clients, are achieving real
success partnering with AWS.

18. irtual and Mixed Reality
Vtechnologies are stirring up
quite a bit of excitement these
days. Many investment firms and
analysts say that Virtual Reality is the
next big tech revolution after mobile,
and predictions for the industry’s
growth ranges from $70B to $150B by
2020.
Virtual Reality (VR) refers to a
completely immersed experience
where you can’t see or interact with the
world around you. It typically doesn’t
let you interact with others, though
some social experiences are now being
developed for VR. Mixed Reality
(MR) are experiences that let you place
virtual content on top of the real world
and interact with it as though it were a
tangible object, creating a blend of the
physical and digital world.
Traditionally, the development of these
technologies has been driven by
military and training applications.
More recently, VR and MR is gaining
attention from various industries and it
is an exciting time for companies and
organizations that are looking for an
opportunity to translate business
solutions into an immersive media
format. New applications are surfacing
across an array of verticals:
Healthcare: Today, doctors often carry
paperwork and consult charts in order
to assess their patients. With MR,
physicians and nurses could access this
information digitally and hands-free,
allowing them to share it with fellow
staff or even consult doctors across the
country.
Education: With VR, complex systems
could be visualized in three
dimensions. Teachers can use virtual
displays to show students how blood
flows through the heart or take students
on a field trip to a South American
rainforest. VR could also allow
realistic, complex training simulations
that take minimal resources to create.
Engineering: There are numerous
potential applications for MR and VR
in engineering, especially with remote
collaboration. Oil rigs, for example,
require constant monitoring, but it’s
not always possible to assign expert
technicians to every location. Equipped
with an MR headset, a maintenance
worker could be instructed by someone
on the other side of the world to
conduct repairs properly. Architectural
and design projects could also benefit
from MR where multiple people could
manipulate and shape objects within a
shared environment.
As new technologies, VR and MR
require a different approach. For any
company who wishes to incorporate
these new technologies into their
processes, the following considerations
are important to keep in mind:
Comfort and Safety
Most VR platforms require you to wear
something on your face. This is a very

20. intimate way to connect to technology compared to what most people are used to, which is a screen they can
keep at a distance. Thus, ensuring a comfortable, enjoyable VR experience is important for your comfort and
safety.
VR and MR Do Not Replace Existing Workflows
It can be tempting to consider VR a quick solution to problem solving. However, it’s important to remember
that VR and MR are not about replacing existing workflows, but enhancing them. Companies should carefully
consider their workflows and identify where MR or VR can be added as a discrete, important part of the
workflow.
Choosing the Right Agency to Work With
Designing for VR and MR is not a simple task. It’s unlike any other popular software design from the last 20-
30 years and requires an unusual skillset. Designers must think about the logistics of creating a 3D object;
adding different behaviors and interactions to it that match people’s expectations of how the object would
behave in the real world; and finally adding in digital properties such as the ability to resize, annotate, and
transform it. In this environment, drawing on a combination of skills in gaming and cinema are key in
conjunction with the ability to apply these skillsets to enterprise business problem solving.
Right now people are focused on moving from web to mobile, but the big question is whether VR technology
will become as commonplace as smartphones. Broader adoption will probably come in the next three to five
years, driven primarily by the entertainment and media landscape. This means that finding ways to effectively
integrate VR and AR into a business and operations context will require creativity to design solutions and a
willingness to experiment.
VR represents a real opportunity to improve the quality of human experience in two ways. First, integrating it
into highly visual and hands-on remote collaboration processes can be a multiplier for human productivity. It
can remove the need to be physically present, but offers more direct interactivity than teleconferencing or
email. By improving the efficiency of communicating information, it can reduce time spent on extraneous
workflow and processes.
Second, VR and MR can be used to help people understand complex data in an intuitive way. Imagine if
FedEx could visualize all of its operations around the world, and how quickly they could identify areas for
improvement for transportation and logistics.
This is only the tip of the iceberg as far as Virtual and Mixed Reality is concerned. Over the next few years,
VR and MR will continue to evolve, changing the landscape of digital media as it finds its way into the hands
of more and more users. To remain innovative and relevant to their consumers, companies should pay close
attention to this space and begin exploring its potential to benefit their business today.

loud technology has made it possible for everyone
to innovate rapidly, in diverse ways, and at a far
lesser cost than ever before. When everything is
revolving around internet and mobility, it's not hard to
predict that whoever makes the most of cloud technology
will have a leading-edge in their respective business
domain.
Cloudreach is a company that has expertise in providing
exemplary cloud services to their clients. We have talked
with Pontus Noren, Co-founder and Director of Cloudreach
to find some valuable insights regarding: Cloudreach’s
contribution towards AWS, his company’s successful
journey since inception and more.
Tell us about your journey since inception of the
company?
In 2009, Cloudreach was just two guys with a great idea
and a lot of passion, talking in a pub in London. Having
repeatedly witnessed how much time and money was being
wasted on replacing or updating aging physical IT
resources, James Monico and I wanted to enable
organizations to innovate and become digital
revolutionaries. Seeing that an intelligent approach to the
way organizations deploy cloud was the future, we wanted
to contribute to the acceleration of cloud adoption to allow
businesses to turn their attention back to the “why” of what
they do, rather than the “how”. Eight years on and we are
helping some of the largest enterprises in the world to
realize the benefits of cloud. We now have over 400
employees across 18 offices.
What are the major contributing factors behind your
company’s success?
We “Keep It Cloudy” by staying true to our company
values and understand that supporting each other goes a
long way. Cloudreach are strong believers in the quality and
personalization of the customer experience, and great
people are the foundation of our business, and key to
everything we do. Our company has a mixture of cloudy
characters, and that diversity and individuality is definitely
a contributing factor behind our success.

23. What’s an example of a company you worked with on
AWS?
True to Cloudreach’s company mission to enable
innovation, The Economist was able to scale, improve the
quality and availability of its infrastructure environment,
rapidly deliver five new functionalities for their digital
estate, and reduce the total cost of their infrastructure and
operations. Cloudreach assisted The Economist “to realize a
new way of procuring and consuming IT.”
How do you see the following concerns; Cloud Security,
Cloud Gaming and the impact of AWS on the gaming
Industry?
Cloud security, as provided by the major providers is now a
reason to use the cloud, not something to be feared. There is
wide recognition that one cannot compete with Microsoft,
Google or AWS when it comes to security, due to a mix of
scale, talent attraction and technology leadership. A single
organization might attain 1-2 externally vetted audit
certifications - a major hyperscale cloud vendor might have
as many as 30. Be honest, could you attract the finest MIT
or Cambridge security professors to work for you? They
can.
When it comes to gaming, we see no major difference in
security requirements. Whilst the major platforms are
common targets for hackers, so are almost all other major
web platforms. There is of course a lot of sensitive user data
and potentially payment infrastructure - but that also applies
to many websites. The advent of GDPR will force smarter
thinking around the handling of such data.
Google have long held the dominant position in the gaming
space, in part due to a mixture of infrastructure performance
and developers favoring the ease of working within a GAE
environment. AWS is chasing hard into this space with
offerings like GameLift and Cognito, and we expect to see
notable penetration into this vertical in the next few years.
What does the future hold for AWS?
The pace of innovation is fast - this is one of the things we
love about public cloud. The competitive desire and drive to
move further up the stack and offer solutions which make
companies’ life easier and more effective – allowing them
to focus on business value, not ‘IT’, was very apparent at
re:Invent 2017.
We’re really excited about what the future holds. AWS
shows no signs of slowing down, and we expect significant
further disruption as cloud becomes the dominant IT
platform of choice. More generally, in terms of trends
affecting the cloud computing industry over the next few
years, we expect Artificial Intelligence and Machine
Learning to be huge, along with serverless development and
compute power moving to the edge (also known as Fog
Computing in some circles).
How do you see yourself and the company in the future
ahead?
We have exciting goals for 2018. We will continue to scale
the company organically (growing by another 100%), and
inorganically, acquiring new capabilities and setting foot
into new geographies as we go. Our partnerships with the
hyperscale cloud providers such as AWS, Microsoft and
Google will strengthen further - these cloud platforms
underpin everything we do and have done since we started
the business in 2009.
Our ultimate goal is to be the #1 software-enabled services
company globally, and we won’t get there without the
efforts of all our fantastic cloudy people!
“Cloud Technology has the potential to transform
any business, and we have the solution.”

25. Experts believe that the market is set to enter into the
second wave of cloud technology. Amazon started
the first wave of cloud computing in 2006 and since
then cloud computing and the enterprises been in this
business have seen a surge in the cloud service demand
from all across the globe. There are plethora of technical
advancements has happened in cloud industry which is
driving cloud computing industry towards an upwards
growth trajectory.
Cloud Containers are in Demand
Cloud container is one of the latest buzzword in the global
IT world in general and security in particular. Even the
world’s premier IT firms are benefitting and using cloud
containers in full fledge mode due to advantages of easy
management and migration of software code in an efficient
way. Many organizations are using it to enable portability
between cloud services from AWS, Google Cloud and
Microsoft Azure as it has the potential to enhance their
DevOps strategies for software production. Many vendors
are also supporting Openshift, Cloudfoundry, and other
open source platform-as-a-service (PaaS) systems. But
companies also need to grapple with the new set of
challenges like security, monitoring, storage and
networking concerns that may arise as containers are
deployed largely in production.
Surge in the Demand of Hybrid Cloud Technology
To move all the mission critical data and application to
cloud is not an easy decision to take for any higher
management authority, especially at a time when
competition is at peak and a small blunder can take a huge
toll on company’s future plans. For smaller companies and
startups it is much easy to move on to cloud, since the data
and application amount is not that huge and the IT
infrastructure is also not that much complex as compared
with large enterprises. But bigger enterprises find it
extremely difficult to shift their whole on-premise IT
operations to fully on the cloud. Big organizations always
play safe but they also understand the benefits of clouds
which it brings to any organizations. Therefore, they prefer
to partially move some of their IT operation on the cloud
environment and remaining operations get executed from
on-premise software and that makes the whole IT
infrastructure environment a complex one.
But with the rapid advancement in hybrid cloud
technology, this concern has fixed. New cloud
software has sprouted up in the market that has the
potential to integrate different technology into a
cohesive system and gives the power to the
employees to use their software remotely,
on-premise or even allow it to run as a
fully-hosted service with enhanced
user experience that too at reduced operation cost. These
facets are pulling enterprises towards hybrid cloud. In 2016,
adoption rate of hybrid cloud rose from 58% to 71% year-
over-year and will continue to maintain its momentum in
the near future as well.
Hyperconvergence Infrastructure is Gaining Popularity
Hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) solutions offers
pre-integrated compute, storage and networking resources
that help organizations get their cloud implementations
running faster. HCI solution also have the potential to
deliver enhanced data protection, increased scalability, ease
of management with cost saving. Due to its capability to
easily launch new cloud services for enterprises that easily
want to package and migrate new workloads, it is gaining
prominence in the cloud technology space.
Organizations across the globe consider HCI as the
foundation for their cloud environment, particularly for new
workloads that demand rapid and automated transitions
with minimal risk. Many technocrats believe that 100 HCI
boxes can make a big pool of computing, networking and
storage devises within a control of a single management
tool. It also cut deployment down time to a matter of
minutes. This particular model is helping companies to
build private cloud that operate like public cloud.
SaaS on the Rise
Businesses across the world invest heavily on IT software,
hardware and people to orchestrate smooth execution of
their IT operations. But all these resources: money, time and
complex software up gradations and maintenance comes
with a huge price tag and complexity. Improvements in
cloud hardware technology have brought one awesome
service in the form of SaaS that has the potential to cut
operating costs without reducing the overall profitability
and productivity. It has the potential to replace on-premise
software and promises to deliver improved solutions
without engaging in time-consuming IT deployment
operations. It also eliminates the need of manual software
upgrade and maintenance resulting into more time and
budget for IT teams to focus on innovation. These are the
reasons more and more companies are now considering
SaaS as the integral part of their business process. Cisco
report predicts that SaaS will account for 60% of all cloud-
based workloads in the near future—a 12% increase over
2017 predictions.
New innovation and advancements in cloud technology
would further lead to increased productivity, improved
business relationships, easier collaboration, and reduced
operating costs which would unsurprisingly lead to an even
larger number of organizations moving towards cloud in the
near future.

28. DevOps
-Bridging the
between Dev and Ops
G A P
For centuries, humans have had a propensity to pit two or more teams with distinctive functionalities against each other
– even when they are on the same team. This dynamic can be witnessed even in traditional business enterprises,
between software developers and operational staffers.
The rivalry between Dev and Ops has been prevalent for decades causing one of the most prominent challenges for
organizations to manage their IT capabilities. Overcoming from this rift and identifying each other as partners rather than
rivals, can be crucial for a business to attain success. But due to opposing priorities, a friction gets created when they are
combined, making it even harder for dev and ops to communicate in an efficient manner.
Conflict between Development and Operations
Although there isn’t any doubt concerning the various technical as well as business advantages that an organization can reap
upon combining Dev and Ops, but they comprise of entirely unique goals, metrics, and approaches.
Development primarily lays focus on producing new systems and applications and ensures that customers get
to use the same as fast as possible. On the contrary, operations look from a different aspect
altogether; wherein they primarily focus on ensuring a speedy and bug-free stable system.
Additionally, both dev and ops strive towards achieving a similar goal of making their
customers feel happy and satisfied, yet they utilize completely contradicting approaches to reach
that purpose. On one hand, development aspires to impress its customers with their new enhancements.
Whereas on the other hand, the operational team wants its customer base to use a stable and tested system
– free from bugs and operability inconveniences.
December 201726
Editorial Talk
29. The Battle Scenario – Before and After the Advent of
DevOps
Before DevOps came onto the scene, both Development
and Operations worked in an isolated manner. The only
time they crossed-paths were during the release phase. The
development team, already notified about the release date,
intended to interject some new and additional features
before the time of release. Whereas the operational team
knew from beforehand whether the current release version
had any new or additional features interjected. This way,
before deploying the release to the customer’s site, the Ops
team performed rigorous testing to be satisfied with its
stability and operability and only then permitted its
deployment.
The arrival of DevOps and its rise in adoption led to a
paradigm shift from this culture. Developers now no longer
need to wait for a release date to bring-forward new and
enhanced features. Instead, they have the capability to
release new features on a regular basis by using the concept
of Continuous Integration and Delivery. This has prompted
developers to emphasize that the operation team must
manage this regular flow of new features imperatively
before it gets deployed to the customer’s site. But this
approach gave rise to a new problem, as Ops have to deal
with a pipeline of releases at a regular interval due to this.
They now need to be extremely attentive and careful about
the quality testing of the systems as the deployed builds on
the customer site may or may not be entirely free from
bugs.
The Resolution
The most feasible and obvious solution to this opposing
friction is the synchronization between Dev and Ops,
popularly termed as DevOps. Coined by Patrick Debois,
known as “the father of DevOps,” DevOps is an operational
philosophy that helps to bridge the gap between
Development and Operations by emphasizing upon
integration, collaboration, and communication.
It is the most salient methodology through which an
organization can check and assure a balance between
development and quality. In order to reach an equilibrium
point in this resolution, both Dev and Ops need to embrace
the DevOps methodologies by modifying their outlook and
their way of working, as follows:
From the Operations Perspective
Ÿ Extensive monitoring of all running environments such
as staging or production, so as to react and prevent any
issues from cropping up and spreading, respectively.
Ÿ Operations need to be much more flexible in their
approach in accepting regular or frequent changes.
Ÿ Operations should facilitate an effective and healthy
collaboration with the Development team.
From the Development Perspective
Ÿ Sound engagement needs to be performed to assess the
quality metrics that Ops emphasizes on, to track customer
production systems and quality.
Ÿ Dev need to be more involved with the testing of their
own code in the production phase instead of leaving out
from the field after writing the system or application
code.
Ÿ Developers should facilitate an effective and healthy
collaboration with the Operations team.
Hence, it can be safely exclaimed that both Dev and Ops
team need to change substantially in their functioning and
outlook to successfully adopt the DevOps methodology.
Adapting to DevOps culture is by no means a silver bullet,
as it brings with itself a considerable amount of changes.
But upon successful communication between developers
and operators, an organization will be able to reap
significant advantages through the same. The battle between
Dev and Ops may continue for years, but DevOps has the
distinct capability to bridge the gap between the two.

32. The growth of AWS is nothing less than phenomenal.
There was a time when AWS was launched as a
medium to buy space for computers. Now AWS
transact business worth over 16 billion annually. AWS, of
course, had the advantage of a big head start in the cloud
market. They began offering cloud infrastructure services
like storage and compute over a decade ago, long before the
competition actually started off on the ground. But it is the
quality and effectiveness of their services that are triggering
AWS towards upwards trajectory. Even as the other
companies like Google and Microsoft have begun to pay
much closer attention to cloud market, AWS has maintained
its massive lead in terms of total market share. One
emerging cloud computing company that has placed its bet
on AWS for its future growth is KnackForge.
KnackForge is a US-based award winning multinational
company that provides exemplary staff augmentation and
software consulting services around AWS. They assist
entrepreneurs, SMB’s and enterprises to focus on their main
business goals and visions. By forging long-term
partnerships with their clients, KnackForge help companies
free up resources, control costs, and access the right
development talent. They provides wide range of services
include cloud computing and infrastructure, web
application development, cross-platform mobile app
development, staff augmentation and dedicated teams,
consulting services, enterprise data warehouse and data
mining.
AWS has been their platform of choice since the formation
of KnackForge. They have helped multiple companies
make the transition to AWS from their traditional data
centers. They don’t just ‘lift and shift’ the applications to
the Cloud but also look for opportunities to refactor and
even re-write the code to maximize the potential of the
cloud.
Mission and the brief Journey since Inception
Their mission is to align their client’s business goals with
the work they provide. KnackForge mean every word when
they say “Your Voice is Our Voice; Your Goals are Our

33. Goals”. Their client varies from small business to big
enterprises, but whatever size of the client, their mission is
to align themselves with the needs of the clients.
KnackForge’s journey was started in 2011; after a couple of
strategic acquisitions, they are now grown to a
multinational company with offices in Tyler (Texas), Dallas
(Texas) and Chennai (India). Their headquarters is in Tyler,
a small town in East Texas with a population of approx.
1,05,000 people. By serving clients across three continents,
they cherish the values and hard work that has made this
country great.
Accomplishments in the Recent Times
KanckForge has received multiple awards over the years,
and has been recently shortlisted among the “20 Most
Promising AWS Solution Providers 2017” by one of the
leading technology magazine. The organization believes
their biggest achievement is intrinsically tied with the
success of its client. For them, their client’s growth is the
real accomplishment, which they feel proud of.
Leading Light of KnackForge
Jeff Strout is the CEO of KnackForge. He is an
inspirational figure for its employees. People revered him
due to the hard work and efforts he put to grow the
company. He has vast experience in leading large
enterprises and is using that experience along with sharp
business acumen to lead Knackforge. Though based in
Tyler, he spends a major portion of his time at client
locations or at the Chennai office. His ‘client first’ approach
is what the company strives for.
Contributing in Client Growth with Cutting-edge AWS
Services
Having evolved alongside Amazon over the years,
KanckForge helped many of its clients to reduce overhead
and improve reliability with AWS. In terms of reporting,
KnackForge leverages AWS CloudWatch to provide
monitoring for application. They commonly integrate the
following technology into their services: Amazon API
Gateway, EC2, RDS, Redshift, S3, ElastiCache, IAM, SES,
and CloudWatch. Their AWS development services are
leveraged by many startups, small businesses, and large
enterprises to launch applications quickly, scale rapidly, and
enjoy high performance at a controlled cost.
KanckForge sees Challenges as an Opportunity Rather
than Obstacle
AWS is all about automation that includes the elimination
of humans from the equation. Some jobs and tasks will fall
aside in the future. More than on-premise jobs, it will affect
how outsourcing would be done in the future. KnackForge
see this as an opportunity rather than a challenge. Be it AI
or any other automation, KnackForge want to be on the
bleeding edge of technology so that they can continue to
make a positive difference; not only to the client but also to
the community as a whole.
Factors Behind Company’s Success
KnackForge puts special emphasis on three vital elements
people, processes, and tools to define every engagement
that they employ with their clients. They inject this formula
in service delivery which encompasses DevOps and design-
thinking which assist companies to control costs, and
provide them access to the right development talent.
The technical teams in India along with business analyst
team in the USA, who also have great communication skills
together, form an impeccable combination to improve the
processes and technologies of Small- and Medium-sized
Businesses (SMBs) by leveraging solutions provided by
Amazon Web Services (AWS).
CEO’s Take on Cloud Gaming and Cloud Security
The Opportunities in Cloud Gaming on AWS are immense.
I wouldn’t be surprised if AWS corners the market. We want
to be a part of the growth and we are all well equipped to
do so; be it gaming or other emerging technologies like
Block Chain. Cloud Security is also an interesting topic.
Having been in the industry for 25+ years I can safely say
that AWS does a much better job at security than individual
datacenters could ever do!
Bet on AWS’s for Future Growth
Being a multinational company with an aim to evolve along
with the industry helps them to keeps their flexibility and
agility trait intact. KnackForge has placed its bets on AWS’s
growth and feel confident about the future growth. They
believe there is an exciting times ahead!

34. o be competitive, organizations are looking to use technology to drive innovation into their products and
Tservices, and simultaneously deliver efficiencies. The Cloud promises to be an enabler for business
transformation - providing the agility for organisations to rapidly learn and adapt with less risk of failure,
and at lower cost. Cost is a consideration but more than that, it provides an opportunity to reduce waste and
improve efficiencies.
Matt Wright, CTO, Rubicon Red, says “Digital transformation presents a significant opportunity for our customers
in terms of driving innovation and accelerating time to business value. As organizations adopt new technologies
and move to blended solutions comprising SaaS, private cloud and on-premise apps, integration plays a critical
role.”
Rubicon Red, a globally recognized and awarded thought leader in Oracle middleware, recommends a phased
approach to help organizations modernize their IT environments, migrating from largely on-premise systems, to
hybrid cloud environments. Through a phased approach, Oracle Middleware customers can get the combined the
benefits of Cloud plus DevOps to upgrade their environments, adopt cloud, streamline development processes, and
concurrently minimize risk and cost.
Matt says, “We can help customers migrate from Oracle SOA 11g to SOA 12c, establish a cloud platform to
seamlessly run Oracle SOA 12c on the Cloud, optimize their integrations, and drive further innovation through new
integrations, SaaS extensions, new processes or mobile channels.”
The Best Recipe: Cloud + DevOps
Moving Oracle Middleware development to the cloud (lift and shift) is a natural first step, and when coupled with a
DevOps strategy means organizations can streamline their development processes. “Organizations that fully
embrace the cloud for Dev and Test are experiencing more than 30 percent time savings upon maturing their
DevOps capabilities,” says Matt.

35. When it comes to running Oracle Middleware in the Cloud, customers have a couple of options. Oracle Cloud
Platform as a Service (PaaS) provides the breadth and depth of functionality to rapidly build and deploy rich
applications and extend Oracle Cloud SaaS apps and integrate with existing business-critical IT systems. SOA
Cloud Service and Integration Cloud Service are the ideal approach for Oracle middleware customers to migrate
their integrations to the cloud. Alternatively, customers could select an Infrastructure as a Service provider and
install the Oracle SOA Suite.
To unlock the commercial and speed to market benefits of developing in the cloud, the process of taking code
developed and tested in the cloud and deploying it into production needs to be frictionless. The key pre-requisites to
achieving this are having a standardized and automated process for building and deploying code across all
environments.
This is where Rubicon Red MyST, the end-to-end DevOps solution for Oracle Middleware, comes into it’s own for
provisioning, configuration and release automation across cloud and on-premise, irrespective of your cloud
provider. “MyST allows you to easily configure an Oracle SOA Cloud Service to replicate your production
environment or provision and configure a Middleware as a Service on top of an existing IaaS provider – as well as
fully automate the build out of your on-premise production environments,” assures Matt. Further, “MyST allows
clients to establish a single integrated process for automating the promotion of the Oracle Middleware platform
configurations and application deployment through each and every phase of the software delivery lifecycle - from
development and testing to production, both in the cloud and on-premise.”
“Combining cloud-based development with DevOps is the perfect combination – reducing development time, whilst
concurrently minimizing risk and cost,” says Matt. He goes on to share a great example of Cloud plus DevOps at
an Australian Oil and Gas company. “Using MyST, they can provision a new Dev/Test environment on the cloud in
less than 60 minutes, whereas previously it would take 4-8 weeks to provision a new environment, manually. And,
using the MyST release automation capabilities, they’ve slashed release time from 4-8 hours to ~15 minutes.”

and efficiency to rapidly deliver on new projects.
Accelerate Speed to Value through Oracle Cloud KickStart
Matt emphasizes that the potential for business innovation through cloud is unprecedented and recommends that while
a phased approach is best to migrate existing systems and bed down hybrid cloud infrastructure, organizations must, in
parallel, begin to evaluate and prototype solutions that will drive the next wave of innovation. “With Oracle Cloud,
continually evolving cloud services open the door to new business opportunities with disruptive cloud innovations
using social and mobile services, big data, content collaboration, and the Internet of Things.”
Through their Oracle Cloud KickStart program, Rubicon Red provides a rapid on-ramp to Oracle Cloud. “Using our
unique blend of Oracle expertise, best practices and agile development methodologies, our Cloud KickStart gives you
everything you need to qualify, quantify and prove your transformation use-case with Oracle Cloud in just two-weeks –
it is the best way to quickly get the green light on your next business transformation project,” concludes Matt.
A 2013 Survey by Evans Data Cloud Development Survey, found that cloud platforms reduce overall development time
by an average of 11.6 percent, 38 percent cited savings in the 11 to 20 percent range, whilst 10% had experienced more
than more than 30 percent in time savings.

Driving Force behind OpenVPN Technologies
Today, Francis Dinha, CEO and Co-founder of OpenVPN
Inc., is a known face in the business world and is living an
abundant life, but it wasn’t smooth sailing for him to reach
the top of this pinnacle. Being born in Iraq, at the time of
complete anarchy and dictatorship, he was faced many
hardships. There was a time, when he was forced to sell
cigarettes on the streets of Baghdad so his family could eat,
and when he was finally able to escape the regime - he
immigrated to Sweden where he worked as a dishwasher to
make ends meet while he attended classes to learn the
language. He believes education is the strongest weapon for
change and transformation. Even during the tough times, he
never compromised his education and continued it along
while doing tough jobs like washing dishes.
His quest for learning continues and with traits like
diligence, integrity, and passion to make it big in life. Those
characteristics led him to pursue a Master’s of Science in
Computer Engineering. He was just shy of a year of
receiving his Ph.D. when he got a job offer from Ericsson.
He considers it a pivotal moment and a turning point in his
professional career. More than three decades of vast
technical experience along with the passion to deliver
comprehensive networking software to the world led to the
inception of OpenVPN.

CEO has a vision for the future progression of the company
through a developed roadmap, great team, and the right
financial resources - goals he believes can be achieved. “I
think what sets successful people apart is their ability to
find a way to get things done – just because something’s
never been done before doesn’t mean it can’t be. It can – but
only when someone is not willing to take ‘no’for an
answer,” says Francis.
“ It takes 3 things to build a successful business: Vision,
Capital, and People (VCP). When your business is not
profitable, time is your enemy and when your business
is profitable - time is your friend ”

40. Green
Cloud Comput
Saving Energy through Technology
The rapid expansion in data centers, due to the exponential growth of the cloud computing has
caused the dramatic increase in energy consumption and its effect on the environment in terms of
the carbon footprints. To reduce the power consumption, it is required to develop some energy
efficient solutions. The Green Computing is the practice of executing policies and the procedures to
improve efficiency of the computing resources in such a way as to reduce the energy consumption and
environmental impact of their utilization. Green Cloud Architecture is rising from these trends leading, not
only to energy efficiency, but also a carbon emission aware concept. In order to reduce energy
consumption, a greener environment needs to be built.
Among all industries, the information communication technology (ICT) industry is arguably responsible
for a larger portion of the worldwide growth in energy consumption. The goal of green cloud
computing is to promote the recyclability or biodegradability of defunct products and factory
waste by reducing the use of hazardous materials and maximizing the energy efficiency
during the product's lifetime.
Energy to be saved
The objective is to reduce power consumption of the data center. It offers the features
like online monitoring, live virtual machine migration, and optimization of Virtual
Machine Placement. Through this proposed Green Cloud Architecture, energy up to
27% can be saved. The need to manage multiple applications in a data center
creates the challenge of on-demand resource provisioning and allocation in
response to time-varying workloads. Data center resources are statically
possessed to applications, based on the peak load characteristics, in order to
provide performance guarantees and to maintain the isolation.
Energy-efficient resource management has been first introduced in the context
of battery fed mobile devices, where energy consumption has to be reduced
in order to improve the battery lifetime. Techniques which are developed for
mobile devices also can be applied or adapted for servers and data centers; this
kind of systems requires specific methods.
Energy Efcient Technology

42. The primary method is to consolidate the Dynamic Voltage
Frequency Scaling technique in an efficient way to maximize
the resource utilization and to minimize energy
consumption of the datacenters which will result in the
reduced carbon footprints and thus will help more in
achieving the Green Computing.
The Green Benefits
Cloud computing is the way to save money and
energy for the business. Users emphasize
Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and can
improve their manageability and facilitate the
maintenance of the resources. It means that
benefit of business enterprises implicates to
avoid spending on software and infrastructure
resources, and allow business clients to focus on
earning money rather than being weighted down
with infrastructure concerns. Therefore, operating
this model allows reducing the consummation of
the power energy without spending money on
running the servers. Moreover, with no servers to
repair, the absence of hardware to upgrade and no
software to install, labor costs are also reduced.
With SaaS software accesses usually through a browser-based
client, i.e., it can run on virtually any authorized computer,
making desktop and laptop resources easily replaceable. Thus, when
the user also saves on the support, it doubles the impact and in fact
increases green role in business. The employees can work remotely, traveling and
moving from one place to another because they have fast access to the internet and the ability to use all the services at hand,
on the other hand, it reduces the consumption of fossil fuels and the harmful pollution that results from vehicle emissions as
well.
The reduction of energy and power consumption has become a first-order objective in the design of modern computing
systems. The roots of energy-efficient computing, practices can be traced back to 1992, when the U.S. environmental
protection agency had launched Energy Star, a voluntary labeling program which was designed to identify and promote the
energy-efficient products in order to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. Computers and monitors were the first labeled
products. This has led to the widespread adoption of the sleep mode in electronic devices. The term “green computing” was
introduced to refer to the energy-efficient personal computers.
Interesting Research Findings
While deploying data center, the sole concern is high-performance, and this demand has been fulfilled without paying much
attention to the energy consumption. An average data center guzzles energy as much as 25,000 households. There is a
necessity to move the focus to optimizing for energy efficiency while maintaining high service level performance than
optimizing data center resource management for pure performance, as the energy cost is increasing while the availability
dwindles. According to certain reports, the total estimated energy bill for data centers in the year 2010 was $11.5 billion and
energy costs in a typical data center doubles every five years.
For the development of cloud computing and it to sustain green technologies is exceedingly essential. Of the numerous green
methodologies enquired, the DVFS technology is a highly hardware oriented approach and hence it is less flexible.
Cloud computing is a highly scalable and cost-effective infrastructure for running an enterprise and the web applications. But
the critical issue is the drastic surge in the energy consumption of data centers which is triggering by the growing demand for
cloud infrastructure. Hence, the energy-efficient solutions are required which results in less number of carbon footprints and
thus help in achieving greener computing.

44. Surfing Ahead of the Trend:
HOW TO SPOT AN OPPORTUNITY AND GROW?
oday we live in a time which is
Tunprecedented in human
history. Technology evolves at
the drop of a hat and as it does,
changes many tangible and intangible
elements with it. Five years ago we
never thought people would sell their
cars and go the “Uber-way”. Today,
that is a reality. And amidst this
technological advancement and
evolution, there lies opportunity. The
question I’m often asked is how do we
spot an opportunity and grow before
it’s ever a trend and the industry
becomes saturated? And my most
frequent response is: If it were that
easy we’d all be millionaires by
creating the next big thing. But here’s
the saving grace: it’s not that hard
either! Here are a few tools I use which
have helped me spot opportunity long
before it’s become mainstream.
1. Start where you are: You’ve got to
start where you are. Don’t wait for all
the ducks to line up in a row for you
because it’ll never happen. Another
reason why this is so important is
because so many people think that they
need to get into a certain industry in
order to innovate new and crazy ideas.
The next big thing could be in your
very industry, whether it’s healthcare
or construction. There’s a need for
innovation and new tech everywhere!
And if that’s not enough of a reason,
here’s another: you know your industry
best! If you switch industries it’ll mean
you have to start over and learn about
an entirely new industry and guess
what, anyone who’s been in the
industry any longer than you already
has an upper-hand. So start where you
are!
2. Look out! Keep an eye open for
things not working the way they
should. Like Seth Godin said:
“Broken!” Looking for things that are
broken. Broken stuff needs fixing and
the reason it ain’t fixed is because
when they made the thing, the tech
didn’t exist. Today you can create tech
that can solve the problem of the
“broken” syndrome.
3. Usability and Functionality: It’s
appalling to see the number of
technologies that have been created
that no one uses. I was recently on the
judging panel of a start-up event and I
was amazed by the kinds of technology
that have been built without ever doing
a user-base analysis. If you don’t have
any users, you don’t make any money.
And if you can’t make money than this
isn’t a business, it’s a hobby. It’s so
simple but passionate entrepreneurs
who believe in their product often
forget this. I’m talking to me too!
4. Hire for attitude: So many leaders
hire and fire people because a certain
person had or didn’t have the right
qualifications. Qualifications can be
developed, skills can be build,
techniques can be learned; but a deeply
ingrained characteristic or attitude
cannot be easily changed. We hire
people for attitude and not just for
what they know. This of course doesn’t
mean you go about hiring people with
great attitude, you won’t get very far
with that mentality either. One needs to
at the least begin to prioritize attitude
more than we are currently.
The greatest entrepreneurs of our time
are applying these very skills and
turning industries on their heads. It’s
time you did it too! And oh! If I were
to add one more thing to the list, I’d
say:
5. Feedback! Listen to your users.
Listen to what they’re saying because
in it lies your very solution. I
remember reading an article by Bill
Gates once in which he said: “Your
most unhappy customers are your
greatest source of learning”.
