EPISODE SUMMARYJoel Neeb is the VP of Execution and Transformation at the office of the CEO at VMWare. We caught up with Joel recently and talked about what the financial industry can learn from tech companies and more specifically about revolutionary transformation. Why you should sell business outcomes rather than the product that gets you there, and how in just a few years time, the most successful organizations will be the ones whose teams are aligned culturally and operationally around customer success.EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:The hardest (and most important thing) your company can do is invest in cultural and operational transformation.Don’t sell your technology, sell business outcomes empowered by the right technology. The most successful companies we read about in five years will be the ones that best communicate a common vision, have the strategy to pursue that vision, and whose teams are aligned behind the scenes.Key Quotes: “Evolutionary change is iterative. It's making things a little bit better within the current paradigm. This is revolutionary change. We need to have constructive disruption.” - Joel“I don't believe whatsoever in innate talent, I believe a hundred percent in our ability to invest in ourselves, invest in our teams, and develop what we need to be successful.” - Joel“It's less about building better technology and this endless rat race against finding a new feature or something that's going to improve the technology or the product. And it's more about how does everything integrate and come together? How do I work cross-functionally across my organization, across the ecosystem to deliver outcomes?” - Joel--LinksJoel Neeb LinkedInJoel Neeb TwitterJoel Neeb InstagramJoel Neeb Website--About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

EPISODE SUMMARYIn this episode of Don't Break the Bank, we speak with Spiros Margaris. Spiros is a venture capitalist at Margaris Ventures, a futurist, keynote speaker, and board member. He’s a senior advisor to and investor in several companies in the fintech, insurtech, cybersecurity, health care, and AI sectors. Spiros chatted with us about why embedded finance excites him, the future of banking, why both crypto and cash is here to stay, and how the metaverse will disrupt the financial world as we know it. EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:The future of finance is in the hands of non-financial companies thanks to embedded finance. This enables companies to embrace FinTech solutions for their customers to sell more of their core product. As this is an added service, it can be priced competitively as the margin comes from the core product. It’s up to legacy financial institutions to work out how to aid or compete.Crypto and Cash are both in our future. If you can handle the risk, try putting some of your money in crypto, but be prepared to lose it. Every new opportunity is a little bit scary, but don’t let that put you off learning more about the metaverse.Key Quotes: “As the gold rush...now, we always look at history. Some people found gold, but very few. The ones who always made money are the ones who sold the shuffles. And I'm looking here at the metaverse, who's going to sell the shovels?” - Spiros“We said it here first. I think the game will shift that everyone will try to do everything, but It's easier for non-financial company to provide some financial solutions on top of your core business then for bank to provide something else.” - Spiros“I'm a huge fan of AI, but that doesn't mean I don't have to discuss trying to secure jobs, reskilling people, because at the end of the day, what's the point of all this technology if humans live worse?” - Spiros--LinksMargaris VenturesSpiros Margaris LinkedInSpiros Margaris Twitter--About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

Colin talks to us about mentorship, learning on the job and how to find, cultivate and support new talent within the industry. EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:An organization is more defined by the people that work there than the technology they create.Make sure employees know what their value is to an organization and encourage them to define their goals.Seek out mentors and offer mentorship. The education on both sides makes it possible to challenge old ways of thinking and discover new solutions.Key Quotes: "Having a clear career path and journey for everybody is important.” - Colin“Technology doesn't necessarily differentiate your company or your capability - your people do.” - Colin“I've gone off using this term soft skills because they're not soft at all. I call them human skills.

In this episode of Don’t Break the Bank, we talk to Josh Simons, Chief Technologist for High Performance Computing at VMware. Josh tells us about some of the things he’s working on in HPC as it relates to financial services. We also explore where ML and AI are fit and are heading...and consider some of the ethical implications as our ability to harness data evolves. This is a great episode for anyone thinking about the types of data that could be used for Machine Learning and how this could be used in your organisation.EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways, beyond Data is NOT boring:The data that you throw away is the data that tomorrow you might be able to use. For instance, as part of a machine learning model that could bring true value to an organization.It's important for organizations to have explicit statements about their AI ethics.Federated learning has some magical capabilities, especially for financial services customers, when it comes to building predictive models without violating local laws on how data is stored or used because the data never leaves the premises.Key Quotes: "In some sense, we all need to be pack rats when it comes to our data.” - Josh“I think it's critically important for organizations to speak explicitly about data ethics with the people or organizations from which you are collecting data and be very clear with them, as well as with your employees, about what it is that you're willing to do and not do with that information.” - Josh“Data is where it all happens. That's the fuel that runs all the ML stuff...The issue is how do we get our hands around all that data, and how do we get it to the point where it is appropriate for building predictive models? Just because you have the data doesn't mean that the data has been cleaned, curated and de biased - so that it's actually in shape to be used for building models.” - Josh--LinksJosh Simons LinkedIn--About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

In this special VMworld episode of Don’t Break the Bank, we talk with Jennifer Manry, Vice President of the Global Industries Group at VMware, and Tom Kellermann, Head of Cybersecurity Strategy at VMware. Jennifer and Tom discuss guarding against cybersecurity breaches and ways to create better and safer customer experiences as part of the drive of Digital Business Transformation.EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:Nonpublic market information, like planned mergers and acquisitions and market strategies, are now being specifically targeted by cybercriminals as high value targets.Customers see cybersecurity as a competitive issue. They are increasingly investing in proactive security measures like DevSecOps and looking for greater collaboration with information security teams, operations teams and development teams to do security by design - to make it even more difficult for cyber exploits to happen.Promote your CISO to report directly to your CEO. They should have a separate security budget from the IT budget and should have veto authority over what the CIO does with regard to anything that would exacerbate the attack surface and allow for island hopping or destructive attacks to occur.Key Quotes: "When you want to get to true business and digital transformation, it's really inextricably linked to high-quality cyber protection, and the need for tight collaboration between all the teams that run these organizations is really critical.” - Jennifer"Cybercriminals are more likely to try and commandeer the digital transformation of the institution to use it against their constituency rather than just burglarize the institution as a whole. This shift is important because cybercriminals want to misuse the trust in the company, in the brand, to attack the company’s constituency.” - Tom"Cyber teams need almost a blank check to keep pace with how frequent and fast the pace of change is with criminals and how sophisticated and differing their various approaches to exploits are.” - Jennifer“This is a dramatic governance issue in this sector when you have your CSO reporting to your CIO, because from an American football perspective, it's like having your defensive coordinator report to your offensive coordinator. It's upside down.” - Tom“This level of investment funding, the level of intensity of focus from the cyber teams, all the way up to the CEO, is likely going to be something permanent. And I think there are lots of investments that teams can do to outfit themselves better with the kinds of technology they need to be able to do behavioral analytics or threat hunting with. I don't see a time where cybercriminals are like, ‘ah, you got me. There's no money left in this.’” - Jennifer--LinksJennifer Manry LinkedInTom Kellermann LinkedInTom Kellermann Twitter--About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

In this episode of Don’t Break the Bank, we talk to Sumit Dhawan, President of VMware. Sumit explains the hows of meeting customer expectations and explains why that should be a company’s benchmark for success.EPISODE NOTESEpisode Notes3 Takeaways:Spend lots of time with customers. That’s the best way to effectively communicate the services on offer and to get an honest barometer check on how well a customer’s needs are being met.Creating a broad, customer-focused definition of success motivates the entire organization to think about how and what needs to be done to ensure customers are satisfied. When it comes to distributed enterprise and distributed workforce, the last thing you want is to go back to the mainframe closed days. Then you completely stop innovation because you're tying application development velocity straight into infrastructure. That’s never been healthy, and it never will be the right approach going forward.Key Quotes: "Customers are not necessarily looking for products and technologies. They're looking for partners themselves who are going to be able to take them into the future.” - Sumit“Software is about creating a vision, a destination, what I call a dream. Until customers see and envision the dream the same way as you do, and our teams fulfill that dream in a structured and methodical way, none of us are successful.” - Sumit“Matching the solutions and then making [customers] successful is the core DNA and the job of sales, which is misunderstood until you've done it.” - Sumit--LinksSumit Dhawan LinkedInSumit Dhawan Twitter--About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

In this episode of Don’t Break the Bank, we talk to Kit Colbert, VMware Cloud CTO about recent game changing innovations in the vSphere Hypervisor and how this helps in cloud architecture - portability, cost and even Kubernetes adoption. EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:Technology changes are hard, but they're never quite as hard as the people, process and organizational changes that need to happen - the culture changes.The notion of agile portability is critical and getting progressively easier.When going through a digital transformation, it’s really important to talk about it openly as a community - what’s working, what’s not, and to learn from it.Key Quotes: "I think VMware is on a journey. If we're successful, people will think very differently of us. They will not think of us as just a virtualization company. They'll think of us as a multi-cloud modern application...and that’s a great opportunity.” - Kit“From a VMware standpoint, we’re leveraging Kubernetes as a standard framework...and then building integrated functionality on top of that. So the end result for customers is that it's just a seamless experience. And yes, Kubernetes is there under the covers, and you can absolutely interact with it if you want to, but you also don't have to.” - Kit“That notion of culture change is extraordinarily difficult and will be by far the hardest part about any sort of transformation.” - Kit--LinksKit Colbert LinkedInKit Colbert TwitterKit Colbert Blog--About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

In this episode of Don’t Break the Bank, we hear from leaders in tech and finance about what technology will be game changing for the industry over the next year.EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:Security and especially cybersecurity is a scary reality across financial services. New technologies bring new risks and the bad guys only have to be successful once to make it worth their while. Listen to Tom and Chris for thought-provoking approaches.People should be seen as an investment, not a cost. To get the most from this investment, focus on getting the best from people by playing to their differences and strengths (or as René Carayol calls them, their Spikes) rather than trying to transform them to fit into a bell curve. You can find more about René on his website or on LinkedIn or check out his book Spike.AI is with us and will only get more immense and intense. We hope to focus more on this in the future. Until then, Louise Öström has recommended the book 21 Lessons for the 21st Century: Yuval Noah Harari and especially as an audiobook.Key Quotes: “Look for the things you excel at, and focus on those, rather than worrying about the areas where others could be better.” - Matthew"There is a need to invest in people in a way that makes them feel special, valued and not just a resource, a number or a row on a spreadsheet. You cannot change a conservative,stuffy, risk and control-based culture overnight, but it needs to change if financial services wants to regain its crown as the place where technical talent wishes to work.” - Matthew “There is no question that we are on the march to quantum, although we are a little way off from quantum supremacy, but crypto has to keep up and be steps ahead if we are to stay ahead of the bad guys.” - Matthew----About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

EPISODE SUMMARYIn this episode of Don’t Break the Bank, we talk to Allison Krill, Chief Technology Officer for Deutsche Börse Group. Allison takes us through the considerations an Exchange makes when deciding where and how to host critical systems and services.EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:For exchanges, geographical sovereignty is a big deal when it comes to cloud data service providers. Because exchanges support many different regulators, they need to think about where the data sits, who operates that platform and who has access to the data - even if it’s encrypted.Security and data protection are important when considering a move to the cloud, but it’s necessary to make the business case. When you look at cloud fit, you need to decide whether you retain what you have, rehost it, replatform it, refactor it or consolidate it with something else.Cost as a driver doesn't always necessarily stand on its own, and you can't get the business case if you're just looking at a lift and shift. So you really need to look at the broader value chain of what cloud gives you. Sometimes that means rearchitecting the platform to be cloud native to ensure that you're getting the benefits of those new and broader services.Key Quotes: “You need to operate in this combined ecosystem of legacy and new world, and make sure that you can bring those platforms together and operate them as one.” - Allison"With new technology adoption, you need to drive cultural change as much as technology change… That's for us where our Center of Excellence has really bridged that gap and understanding - it helps with challenging the status quo, getting people to think outside of their comfort zone." – Allison“You definitely won't get cost advantages if you're doing the same thing in the old way, but in a new world.” - Allison--LinksAllison Krill LinkedIn----About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

In this episode of Don’t Break the Bank, we talk to Jennifer Manry, Vice President of the Global Industries Group at VMware. Jennifer talks us through how to motivate teams and navigate businesses during times of digital transformation. EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:Always invest time and effort in eliminating non-value added work and automating where possible. You can't continue to come back and ask for more money without demonstrating that you’re being responsible with the budget already given. Make sure your tech experts feel connected to the customer experience. Ask IT to do ride alongs - listen to someone on the desk. Do empathy interviews and talk to people. The growth mindset of the organization - the willingness to do new things and manage through change with positivity and energy - is paramount to making all of the technology work to its fullest capability. You need to get buy-in to move forward.Key Quotes: "Customer interaction is a really important thing to spend time on. So I definitely encourage people who are in tech to go talk to customers. You immediately know how important you are to the business.” - Jennifer“The theme I hear in most of these customer interactions is every one of them is grappling now with a transformation journey that they knew they had to make but now are having to do it on an even more accelerated timeline.

In this episode of Don’t Break the Bank, we talk to Louise about Accenture and VMware’s hybrid cloud partnership. Louise takes us through the start-up of this collaborative business group, known as the AVBG, and explains what every company should consider when going to a cloud model. This is a really helpful episode for organizations thinking about a digital transformation but unsure about the first steps. EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:Be very clear about why you want to go to a cloud model, and make sure you can get out when you want.The keys to success are attitude, belief and people. Hire people with diverse skill sets and actively encourage them to collaborate.If going to a cloud model is about cost savings, don’t put old workloads into something fancy. Don’t put the pigs in the ferrari.Key Quotes: "You can make a hundred PowerPoint slides, but the magic happens on the ground. And the magic happens when people work with people.” - Louise“The best advice I could give any company within the financial industry is to think about why you want to go to the cloud. What is it you want to achieve? Make sure you don't lock yourself in. Don't put all your eggs into one basket.” - Louise“Everyone in the banking finance industry globally is struggling with the same challenge. It's not just you. You might be right there in the darkness feeling overwhelmed or don't know where to start. They're all in the same situation. Seriously, you're not alone.” - Louise--LinksLouise Öström LinkedInLouise Östrom Twitter--About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

James Forrester is Vice President Worldwide, Technical Leader of Cloud Sales at VMware. In this episode of Don’t Break the Bank, we chat with James about the whys, the hows and the future of cloud technology. This is a fantastic episode for all of you wondering what a switch to a cloud model would look like for your organization. EPISODE NOTES3 Takeaways:When moving an application to the cloud, focus on the velocity of the move and the ability to revert rather than doing a lot of the optimization work on paper beforehand. Move and then optimize.Try to consolidate layers of redundant regulation that may have built up within an application over time. It saves customers time and money.Make sure the IT teams are seen as the heroes of the cloud transformation process because the applications they support typically produce some of the most critical business data for organizations.Key Quotes: "I'm incredibly excited that the industry has turned around to the importance of technology. We see more and more CEOs declaring themselves to be technology companies even though they're in non-technology industries. I think right now is just a fantastic time to be in tech.” - James“I think what's so compelling about where we are now is that we can really make heroes out of enterprise IT because of the cloud.” - James“When there's an excessive focus on trying to simply recreate a data center environment in the cloud - lock, stock, and barrel - that can very quickly impact the economics of moving to cloud in the first place.” - James--LinksJames Forrester LinkedIn--About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

If we're going to put something in a product, we want to ensure that this is something that a lot of customers really want and care about.” - Chris“I think a lot of times with innovation the mistake that gets made is you just start running without having a clear line of sight to what the destination is and think you'll figure it out along the way. Sometimes you do and you're successful, but a lot of times you don't and you're building something that nobody necessarily wants or needs.” - Chris--LinksChris Wolf LinkedInChris Wolf Twitter--About the HostsMatthew O'Neill is a husband, dad, geek and Industry Managing Director, Advanced Technology Group in the Office of the CTO at VMware.You can find Matthew on LinkedIn and Twitter.Brian Hayes is an audiophile, dad, builder of sheds, maker of mirth, world traveller and EMEA Financial Services Industry Lead at VMware.You can find Brian on LinkedIn.

As organizations embrace cloud, they are beginning to turn a new chapter in the era of multi-cloud. Multi-cloud has quickly become the dominant deployment model. According to a 451 Research study, 75% of all enterprises have multi-cloud footprints (1). Many enterprises choose to run mission critical workloads on-premises to take advantage of data locality, predictable workload performance and low network latency. As larger masses of data accumulate in the enterprise, they tend to attract more local services and applications to minimize latency, increase throughput, and maximize workload performance.

On this episode, our host Himanshu Singh, Director vSphere Product Marketing at VMware; will walk us through: - How Consumption model preferences are evolving; - Demand for infrastructure services is increasing; - Security threats to Data Center traffic are rising; - Traditional approaches to meet the needs of next-gen infrastructure do not work.

In this podcast edition, Eric Nielsen and David Jasso talk with Robin Querin around the idea that there are many different ways to think about what “Cloud Is”. Robin leads VMware’s Cloud Management Technologist practice. Robin points out that many people think about cloud as if it were a destination. My cloud is AWS or Azure or Google. But as we all move into a world where one organization may be using AWS and Azure and Google; it’s more useful to return to the idea that cloud is an operating model. Thinking about cloud this way allows you to focus on building a cloud environment that can easily support operations across a multi-cloud landscape. The other big idea that organizations need to think about is the idea that cloud is personal. If you want to build a world-class cloud that addresses the needs of real people, you need focused on their needs upfront. If you put these two ideas together, the first that cloud is an operating model and second that cloud is personal; you will architect a solution that meets your cloud computing needs today and well into the future…

In this podcast edition, we talk with Senior Manager, VMware Cloud Solution Engineering, Jeff Eberhard about why it can be so challenging to quickly and easily move an application from the data center to the cloud. We discuss how most traditional, client-server, applications running in the data center have some form of application to infrastructure dependency that makes its likely that anyone moving an app from the data center to a hyper-scaler cloud will need to rewrite some amount of the code to make the app run as expected. Fortunately, the work that VMware is doing to make it possible to run the VMware Cloud Stack on any of the major hyper-scalers offers an answer to this problem.

We discuss about key scenarios wherein customers want to extend their data centers to cloud, typical challenges they face while extending their infrastructure to cloud, and how VMware Cloud on AWS resolves these challenges.

Bill and Dan are part of a team of VMware Cloud Evangelist focused on building and running applications on AWS, Azure, and Google. Their team has created multiple videos, blogs and code samples highlighting how to leverage continuous verification for the purposes of ensuring that deployed applications will operate within budget, will be free of misconfigurations that can create security risks and that governance checks that validate the matching of users to environments are executed in advance of code deployment. The team leverages both VMware and a wide range of 3rd party development products as part of their continuous verification efforts.

In this episode, host Eric Nielsen, Sr. Director Social Media & Communities VMware and Co-host David Jasso, Director, VMware Cloud Services Product Marketing will interview Tom Hite, Senior Director, Professional Services Engineering Emerging Services to talk about how to leverage a data-centric framework to design modern apps that will run in multi-cloud environments. Called the Six Sevens, this framework looks at six fundamental data orchestration processes that exist in every project and seven foundational choices app dev teams will make in every project. The goal of the framework is to ensure that teams make well-reasoned and explicit decisions about the data that will be created, used, moved, stored and transformed as a result of the application being built. Making explicit decisions upfront, at the start of the project, will avoid negative and unintended consequences that could negatively impact a company’s bottom line and ruin their reputation.

I hope you will find this episode useful and learn at least one new thing. It was produced with care for you.
