• 59. Compliance Does Not Equal Security

  Event Page: https://techfieldday.com/event/xfd13/Compliance reinforces the state of security in your organization. However, compliance in and of itself is not security. In this episode of the Tech Field Day Podcast, Tom Hollingsworth is joined by Jack Poller and Milou Meier as they discuss the nuance between securing your organization and ensuring compliance. They discuss the challenges with audits and the “checkbox” mentality that has become common. They also discuss how organizations face different challenges globally and how you can help ensure that you aren’t being exposed to problems in the future.Host: Tom Hollingsworth, Tech Field Day Event LeadTech Field Day: https://techfieldday.com/people/tom-hollingsworth/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/networkingnerd/ PanelMilou MeierTech Field Day: https://techfieldday.com/people/milou-meier/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/milou-lammers-meier-9815824b/Jack PollerTech Field Day: https://techfieldday.com/people/jack-poller/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jackpoller/ Follow the Tech Field Day Podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on X/Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and use the Hashtag #TFDPodcast to join the discussion.

• SPOTLIGHT. The Unknown Unknowns of Cloud Providers with Catchpoint

  Learn More about Catchpoint at Cloud Field DayYour Internet Application is full of unknowns, which will affect its performance and availability for your customers. This episode of the Tech Field Day Podcast features Catchpoint CEO and co-founder Mehdi Daoudi, Eric Wright, Jon Myer, and Alastair Cooke. Internet applications are seldom self-contained, relying on other web services for specialized functions and needing responses from the services before a final response to a user. Functions such as DDoS protection, tracking, embedded advertising, and other valuable services enable faster application feature development, but at what cost? Any delayed response from these services can slow down your application for your users, leading to dissatisfaction, even when your servers perform beautifully. Remember that the services you choose to use may, in turn, use other external services. Catchpoint champions user-centric monitoring and Internet Performance Monitoring (IPM) to complement existing APM tools. Visibility of issues outside your data center is vital to identifying issues before they become helpdesk tickets or application outages.

• SPOTLIGHT. Managing Hybrid Cloud Networks Complexity with Infoblox

  Learn More about Infoblox at Cloud Field DayManaging hybrid-cloud networks is complex due to differing architectures and naming between on-premises and the multiple public cloud platforms. This Tech Field Day Podcast episode features Glenn Sullivan, Senior Director of Product Management at Infoblox, Eric Wright, and Alastair Cooke. Each public cloud has a unique management console and network management paradigm; none provides deep integration with each other or with on-premises networking. It is left to individual customers to assemble a jigsaw of pieces into a coherent whole. Customers may not plan to use multiple public clouds, but through different project requirements or mergers and acquisitions, most large organizations find themselves in a hybrid multi-cloud environment. Combining fast-changing public cloud applications with on-premises applications further complicates network management, requiring an automation-based approach. Infoblox UDDI (Universal DNS, DHCP, and IPAM) provides a consistent, automatable interface to manage and operate basic network infrastructure across all enterprise locations. UDDI includes bi-directional operation where changes using cloud-native consoles are visible in UDDI and vice versa.Guest: Glenn Sullivan, Senior Director of Product Management at InfobloxHost: ⁠Alastair Cooke⁠, Tech Field Day Event LeadPanelists: Eric Wright, Chief Content Officer, GTM DeltaFollow the Tech Field Day Podcast ⁠⁠on X/Twitter⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠on Bluesky⁠⁠ and use the Hashtag #TFDPodcast to join the discussion.

• SPOTLIGHT: Quality Data is the Foundation for AI with Qlik

  Register for Qlik Connect: https://www.qlikconnect.com/AI ought to be able to help businesses derive value from their data, but not all AI applications have a solid foundation. This episode of the Tech Field Day podcast looks forward to Qlik Connect 2025, featuring delegates Gina Rosenthal and Jim Czuprynski discussing the importance of data with Nick Magnuson of Qlik and host Stephen Foskett. Last year Qlik introduced Answers, a RAG AI product that delivers intelligence from unstructured data. This year we expect to see much more integration with structured data, analytics, business intelligence, and agentic AI, as Qlik's customers seek to deliver innovative solutions. Mature organizations are focused on building a solid governance foundation for their data, ensuring responsible and ethical use in AI applications. The advent of agentic AI raises more concerns, as autonomous agents are empowered to take action without human involvement. Responsible use must include strict limits and human supervision to make sure AI agents remain controlled. We're looking forward to customer stories, technical takeaways, and maybe some new product introductions at Qlik Connect this year!Qlik Representative: Nick Magnuson, Head of AI at QlikHost: Stephen Foskett, President and Organizer of Tech Field DayPanelists: Gina Rosenthal, Founder of Digital Sunshine SolutionsJim Czuprynski, Chief Storyteller at Zero Defect ComputingFollow the Tech Field Day Podcast ⁠⁠on X/Twitter⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠on Bluesky⁠⁠ and use the Hashtag #TFDPodcast to join the discussion.
