No matter how your organization operates, it needs to be prepared for change - and as the IT Industry marches towards a faster flow of automated software delivery, agile Change Management has become imperative to control the gateway between development and deployment. 

In the past, Change Management has been associated with protracted approval processes and considerable manual effort; however, by moving away from a one-size-fits-all strategy and embracing DevOps initiatives, changes can be broken down and implemented quickly. But how can this be achieved successfully?

In this episode of Day-to-Day DevOps, Helen Beal and guests will explore how your organization can adapt its Change Management practices to meet the ever-evolving, faster pace of continuous delivery,  and deliver software that doesn’t compromise on reliability or security.

Join us to hear:
- What Change Management is in the context of DevOps.
- Why adapting Change Management to continuous delivery is as much cultural as it is procedural. 
- Why DevOps can support your organization’s change management, and why DevOps and Change Management can coexist. 
- The best practices for integrating DevOps into your existing functional framework/change management strategy.
- And more

Driving Organizational Change Management with DevOps

An increasing number of organizations are deciding to move their digital operations into the cloud, but this is only the first step in a long migration process. Today’s companies are presented with several options on how to get to the cloud and this choice carries seriously high stakes. Get it right and the business will see cost savings and improved performance. Get it wrong and join McKinsey’s estimated 70% of companies whose digital transformation efforts failed.
 
For some, the right choice is to embrace the simplest switchover method, known as “lift and shift.” This maps existing applications directly onto a cloud structure, removing the need to modify the applications themselves and shortening the migration process. Others will prefer a comprehensive cloud native-strategy that requires a lot more development and retraining, but may be a smarter long-term approach.
 
Tune into this episode of Digital Transformation in Action to work out what is the right choice for your organization. 

Specifically, we’ll look at:
- The migration options on the table, whether IaaS, PaaS or SaaS
- The limits, opportunities and best company fits of each approach
- Some of the more common pitfalls that organizations fall into
- And more

Managing Cloud Migration: Lift & Shift or Going Cloud Native?

Natural language processing (NLP) uses AI and machine learning to teach computers to understand language in the same way that humans do. NLP is used in speech recognition, chatbots, and search engines - and is becoming more widely used in industries around the world. The global market for NLP is growing year on year, and is predicted to reach 43 million dollars by 2025 (Statista). 

But how can we leverage NLP today? How mainstream is NLP, and what can we expect in the coming years?

Join Ramesh Dontha and expert panellists as they discuss: 

-  NLP and data analysis 
-  Tools and approaches to NLP 
-  NLP for the enterprise; how to leverage NLP for your business

At some point, you probably stumbled upon the trope – “data is the new oil”. Luckily, during this live meeting, you won’t. Rather than explaining why data is important (BORING!, everybody knows it by now), our expert shows you what steps to take to become data-driven. Maximum practical insights, minimum theory.

Our expert – Bartłomiej Poniecki-Klotz – is working with data on a daily basis. Processing information is not only his job, but also his passion. In the past, he helped many companies to become digital and smart. During this short live chat, he shares his experience with you and present a practical overview of the steps you need to take to become data-driven.

These steps are:
- Collecting and visualizing data.
- Collect and process streaming data.
- Advanced analytics (processing using Big Data tools).
- Enriching data and operate ML models on production.

Finally, our expert explains why it’s important to follow a step-by-step approach rather than a single revolution sprint. He also discusses choosing the right tools and considering a technological partner to help with the transition.
