AWS PE Transformation Advisor program overview
Assigns a dedicated PE Transformation Advisor to the executive cloud sponsor (CxO or similar) for an 8-to-12-week engagement that can be further extended as needed. The PE Transformation Advisor aids the executive in value creation by removing transformation blockers, securing buy-in from the executive team, influencing the board, adapting business processes in support of cloud, and preparing the broader organization for the digital transformation.
During the engagement, the PE Transformation Advisor provides prescriptive guidance to define the transformation tenets and guiding principles, assist developing the business case, produce the cloud journey map, establish the Cloud Center of Excellence (CCoE), document KPIs, identify partners, and define the Cloud Operating Model (COM).
Organizing for faster innovation - People, process, culture, and technologyTom Laszewski
Organizing for faster innovation through people, process, culture, and technology transformation. Best practices, lesson learned, and a prescriptive approach to evolving and disrupting a company's people, process, culture, and technology during a digital and cloud transformation.
Creating an Operating Model to enable a high frequency organizationTom Laszewski
Establishing an appropriate cloud operating model is critical to forming your organization’s successful adoption of cloud, and delivering greater business agility, increasing the cloud migration Return on Investment, and deliver a more secure, performant, reliable, and cost effective cloud computing environment. The impact of the cloud will be felt across your entire organization, including processes and people - not just Information technology. It will significantly affect, and be affected by, your organizational culture and Information technology delivery structures. This session will provide prescriptive guidance regarding the best approaches to evolving an operating model from projects to products, manual, process intensive governance to a ‘trust but verify’ model, long development cycles to continuous integration and deployment, silos between business and IT into a collaborative organizational structure, self-service processes, and continuous improvement. The recommendations in the presentation are based upon lesson learned, best practices, and anti-patterns from thousands of customer’s cloud transformation journeys.
AWS Cloud Center Excellence Quick Start Prescriptive GuidanceTom Laszewski
This presentation is a practical playbook for defining, establishing, and implementing a Cloud Enablement Engine (CEE). It collates and summarizes the lessons learned and anti-patterns gathered from the CEE journeys successfully navigated at Amazon and other large enterprise companies. A lot has been written about the need to establish a CEE, the benefits of moving to a productization mindset, and the business value of tribes, guilds, and two-pizza teams. However, larger organizations are still struggling with a CEE 30-60-90 day plan, and the essential components of the CEE during its first six months in existence.
The prescriptive guidance in this presentation provides pragmatic and tactical advice for establishing a Cloud Enablement Engine (CEE) – also referred to as a Cloud Center of Excellence (CCoE) or Cloud Enablement Team. This presentation serves as a step-by-step guide for the initial setup activities, and the top ten best practices that have been extrapolated from working across a large number of customers. What not to do is as important as what to do. Therefore, the top ten anti-patterns are discussed.
A key focus of the CEE is transforming the IT organization from an on-premise operating model to a Cloud Operating Model (COM). The transformation to COM and the charter of a CEE are highly correlated and interconnected. During the nascent stage of the CEE, the focus of the CEE will be on the infrastructure components of a COM. This includes the operations, security & control, platform architecture & governance, and infrastructure provisioning & configuration management functions. AWS understands that enterprise (on-premises) operating models are based on ITIL. Therefore, the cloud transformation from an on-premises operating model to a COM will include mapping ITIL to a cloud, agile, and DevOps based capabilities and processes. Fortunately, ITIL 4.0 embraces DevOps, cloud, and agile.

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.

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:

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.

The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
