Episode #46 - ‘Space Container’: CreativeIT Solutions, Without Limits
In this insightful episode of the Incubator podcast, hosts Satbir Sran and Darren Boyd are joined by Craig Martin, VP at AHEAD and leader of the Digital Solutions Group.
In this episode, Craig, a devout Grateful Dead fan, shares the transformative strategies his team uses to help organizations unlock the full potential of technology through modernization. Just as Jerry Garcia's 'space container' crafted a unique, boundary-pushing soundscape in music, Craig's team is redefining the norms in IT, challenging conventional approaches to deliver innovative solutions.
With a rich background in engineering and a knack for pioneering solutions, Craig discusses the shift towards microservices architecture and cloud transformation, emphasizing the necessity of a holistic strategy that marries engineering prowess with keen business acumen.
The discussion pivots to hybrid cloud environments, where Craig outlines the concept of a unified control plane that allows businesses the flexibility to run workloads more efficiently across various platforms, thereby optimizing operational performance without bogging down engineering teams with infrastructure concerns.
Have a listen to understand how hybrid cloud can be the "space container" of tech, offering the freedom to innovate without limits, much like Jerry Garcia's vision of boundless creativity.
