The Journey Begins Here
This year we are packing in the content and delivering some interviews from very notable and audience requested talent. Find out more about our stops below!
Road Trip Stop: Denver
Conversation: Super Cloud
We begin our journey this year in the heard of Denver, talking to Faction Founder Luke Norris about the ride of supercloud and how it delivers capabilities through software consumed as services. Running on a single hyperscale cloud or spanning multiple clouds, we pick Luke’s brain about the ins and outs of this cloud architecture.
THE CLOUD
NEVER SLEEPS
It’s technically possible to take data one PB of data from AWS to GCP and use GCP AI/ML is technically possible. Luke Norris, Founder of Faction, argues that their service makes it possible. Luke draws out the Faction Data Fabric and explains how this multi-cloud data access isn’t just technically possible but financially possible.
Road Trip Stop: San Jose
Conversation: The BIG Move
We’re cheating a little on this stop, but you can’t blame us. We’re talking to former SAP President, VMware COO, and current Cohesity CEO Sanjay Poonen. This is a follow-up conversation to Keith and Sanjay’s discussion from Road Trip 2021. In this editorial session, Keith asks Sanjay all the questions customer executives want to know, what’s Cohesity, and why did he choose to lead a data management startup.
