Integration strategies and tactics for information technology governanceVishal Sharma
This document discusses integration strategies and tactics for IT governance. It defines IT governance as the system that directs and controls an organization's IT portfolio. Effective IT governance requires balancing centralized and decentralized approaches. Large organizations often adopt a federal model where IT infrastructure decisions are centralized while application decisions are decentralized. This allows for standardization from the core while supporting flexibility and responsiveness at the business unit level. Ensuring integration and communication between centralized and decentralized teams is important for the effective functioning of this model.

Over time, the triggers driving digital transformation have evolved from early revenue generation to include new business models and industry disruption. Attributes of successful digital transformation include simplicity, ubiquity, affordability, speed, usability, and empowerment. Digital disruption poses low barriers to entry and forces constant innovation.
Vodafone India - Why Govt. of India IntervenedVishal Sharma
The government of India recently intervened in Vodafone Idea (VI) due to the struggling telecom industry. It converted VI's outstanding spectrum and AGR dues into equity, making the government the largest shareholder. This will allow VI to raise more debt and fund growth. However, it will only reduce 7% of VI's total Rs. 2.2 trillion debt. The government intervened because it cannot allow the telecom sector to be controlled by just Airtel and Jio. Reforms are still needed, like scrapping AGR fees, so operators can sustain business through market principles with less intervention.
Optus faced multiple challenges in 2022, including recovering from the impacts of COVID and a major data breach in September that resulted in the loss of 65k customers. While Optus recovered those customers within 1-2 quarters, the data hack significantly damaged their brand equity and increased financial pressures. Going forward, Optus' leadership will need to determine how to rebuild brand trust and identify growth strategies to revive the business. In Q3 2023, Optus showed positive signs as the impact of the cyber attack was contained and net connections grew again since December 2022.
TPG Telecom reported its FY23 results, with revenue growing slightly to $5.41 billion despite challenges. Mobile customers increased by 300,000 due to customers switching from Optus after a data breach. Fiber broadband users doubled to 170,000 as TPG positions itself as a lower-cost provider by leveraging its mobile and fiber infrastructure. The merger with Vodafone has created Australia's fourth largest telco, though integrating the companies remains a challenge. Analysts project the stock price could rise further given growth in mobile, fiber, and enterprise customers.

Future of Cloud 2022 - Grow and Be GreenVishal Sharma
This document discusses the future of cloud computing and provides an overview of key topics. It begins with an agenda and discusses how the economic landscape has evolved from the global financial crisis to the current global inflation crisis. It then covers how cloud adoption and deployment models have changed over time, moving from a focus on cost reduction to revenue generation and demand-centric models. The document outlines various risks and controls associated with cloud computing and discusses how terminology and technologies in the cloud space have evolved. It also compares the key differences between AWS and Google's approaches to distributed cloud computing.
The document discusses the future of cloud computing. It outlines how cloud has evolved from an IT enabler to a business enabler and platform of choice. It notes that customer experience and resiliency are new priorities for cloud. The document also discusses how cloud adoption has increased since 2008, the impact of COVID-19, and debates around open versus walled cloud providers.
After spending more than $59 billion on its broadband network, Australia's average internet speed ranking is now 67th globally with speeds of 51.34 Mbps, up from 10th place and speeds of 2.8 Mbps in 2010. However, choosing multiple technologies rather than a single approach may have increased costs and lowered returns. Over half the funding for the National Broadband Network came from government-sourced equity and debt, with the remainder from private debt, leases, and payments to Telstra for migrating customers and disconnecting copper lines. Despite higher average revenue per user, generating enough revenue to repay costs and make the network attractive to sell remains a challenge.
This document defines and describes different types of inflation: open inflation occurs without price controls; galloping inflation is a persistent mild rise in prices; hyperinflation is an uncontrollable rise in all prices over time. Other types discussed include suppressed inflation which is controlled, creeping inflation under 3% per year, demand-pull inflation from supply shortages, and cost-push inflation from increased production costs. The document concludes that today's inflation is being driven more by reduced supply rather than increased demand, and fixing supply issues would reduce price inflation.
The document discusses threats and challenges facing NBN Co including an idle network capacity of over 30%, competition from 5G and satellite internet providers, and the need to upgrade FTTN/B connections. It also provides funding details for NBN Co, noting the company has raised $24.9 billion in total debt and will receive around $35.7 billion from Telstra over 30 years for migrating customers off copper networks. Increasing revenue to $54 per customer per month may not be enough to repay costs and make the network attractive to sell.
The document discusses the differences between traditional and digital IT, as well as the current state of cloud adoption. Traditional IT focuses on maintaining the status quo and fulfilling demands through ongoing costs, while digital IT aims to transform businesses through upfront capital costs and generating new demands. Today, cloud adoption has moved IT between horizontal and vertical structures, with many businesses now taking a cloud-centric approach to gain flexibility, scale, and reduce ongoing costs, though some still rely on on-premise IT due to concerns over expenses and functionality. The key message is that cloud adoption follows a similar pattern to the double helix model, shifting focus between traditional and transformative approaches.
