Software Defined Talk

Drink your own dog food No matter the searing product strategy insight, ops is always left holding the bag. With few exceptions (like NSX), infrastructure software has to be free and easy to check out and even use. All product management and strategy decisions flow from that. Usually. Except when they don’t. Also, developers don’t pay for anything, they trick ops into it. Maybe that’ll change in public cloud land, but who knows? Buy Coté’s book dirt cheap (https://leanpub.com/digitalwtf/c/sdt)! Also: Dark green smoothies. Immediate value. Gotta schedule a phone call to optimize phone calls. A light under a bushel. Free bread crumbs to the public cloud oven. Don't feel ashamed, everywhere else is fucked too, cf. Lean accounting. OpenShift too expensive, but no one actually checked the price.

Do organizations ever just want to do a good job? Not really. Also, after looking through a new developer survey: Developers change what they use, but pretty much stay the same. Also, half of the, still don’t use build pipelines or issue trackers. When will these kids learn? And Coté explains why Nietzsche’s Eternal Return thing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_return) seems unhelpful. Buy Coté’s book dirt cheap (https://leanpub.com/digitalwtf/c/sdt)! Also: Pretty hard stop in an hour. Slack Messaging Transport Protocol and The Cold Chain Drum-circle free zone at Vondelpark (https://www.instagram.com/p/By7WXhWiN4c/?igshid=5ryhtzgbt15h)! Like us on Facebook as we hate on Facebook As people would call it… bong talk. If I’m gonna do a good job I’m gonna need a good editor. Do .ini files still exist? Or has Microsoft gone all yaml?

Been like that in surveys for many years, since 2012 or so. Also, only 44% use an issue tracker? Weird. Testing is pretty good with 70% doing unit testing.

Why cloud is the best defense against AWS (https://www.techrepublic.com/article/why-cloud-is-the-best-defense-against-aws/) I guess it’s some fanfic on OSS companies being good at running managed middleware services? Not too far fetched of an idea: they just need good SREs and the ability to reliably and cheaply run on public clouds. Kind of like selling against generics in grocery stores. Kubernetes and the future of cloud native: We chat with Kelsey Hightower (https://about.gitlab.com/2019/05/13/kubernetes-chat-with-kelsey-hightower/) TechExplorers: Kelsey Hightower (https://youtu.be/9OHNejqXOoo?t=988) Lots of people doing it wrong: gotta have cloud native apps; don’t build platforms? Apple joins the open-source Cloud Native Computing Foundation (https://techcrunch.com/2019/06/11/apple-joins-the-open-source-cloud-native-computing-foundation/) The goal of digital transformation is outcomes, not engineering (https://content.pivotal.io/intersect/the-goal-of-digital-transformation-is-outcomes-not-engineering) Coté just wanted to point out that this is a good newsletter.

Good attention to the whole life of a customer and paying attention total revenue across their “life,” e.g.:“A customer might spend 6 months scaling their deployment on their own. But if we could help them do that in 3 months, then we probably just pulled in our next sale by one quarter. “ What are the “average” prices for thing here? Analogously, you can bucket the pricing for all condemnts (with truffle oil being an outlier) in the $1 to $15 range. But not, like, $100. There must be some basic clusters of OSS pricing. (Expensive stuff is hard to sell in this funnel.) I suppose looking at avg. annual revenue per customer for all these OSS companies would get you there. “Bodies in Seats” - Facebook moderators (https://www.theverge.com/2019/6/19/18681845/facebook-moderator-interviews-video-trauma-ptsd-cognizant-tampa?stream=top) Even FB outsources! Here to Cognizant. Seems terrible. Have The Public Clouds Killed Hadoop? (https://www.nextplatform.com/2019/06/06/have-the-public-clouds-killed-hadoop/) Follow-up on Hortonworks acquisition, road-map confusion: ‘Cloudera was also dogged by other factors that resulted in a slowing of bookings in the quarter by existing customers, which represent more than 90 percent of the company’s usual growth, Reilly said during a conference call with Wall Street analysts yesterday. The merger with Hortonworks “created uncertainty, particularly regarding the combined company roadmap, which we rolled out in March of this year,” he said. “During this period of uncertainty, we saw increased competition from the public cloud vendors.”’ Nonsense Subway History: How OS/2 Powered The NYC Subway For Decades (https://tedium.co/2019/06/13/nyc-subway-os2-history/) The machines are going to hate us (https://twitter.com/kocizum/status/1139615763336171525) English units (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_units) Sponsor: Solarwinds This episode is sponsored by SolarWinds and one of their web APM tools: Loggly.

THIS IS ALL GREAT! BUT WHY SO HARD? (IS IT HARD?) My theory: this stuff isn’t hard, it just costs money and time.

You can now pay open source developers directly, well, those in the closed beta. Seems like a good idea, really.

Also: What kind of hippy were you, Coté? Any whistles? Low-tech rave. 3 slides in Guam. Thought-acting. New hire announcements need to be auto-deleted. Not for you.

I don’t know if it has a pickle plugin Salesforce synergizing at IBM and Red Hat, VMware buys Bitnami, and Linux Desktop market share analysis. Plus, pickles. Opening comments: The intersection between business books and dog vomit. Democracy sausage. Coté can’t get extra pickles (https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxh5ikuiFuK/). Let me close out this topic of pickles. It’s not Burger King. Enterprise Salespeople don’t get tattoos T-shirt currency arbitrage. Literally misspelled responsibility Tacos and IT transformation 7 layer burrito of IT transformation. BSD and Linux are the same, right? (Don’t email me.) Don’t watch Coté’s old videos (https://www.youtube.com/user/redmonkmedia/videos). Did the cat walk on your keyboard? Relevant to your interests VMware to acquire Bitnami (https://blog.bitnami.com/2019/05/vmware-to-acquire-bitnami.html): VMware’s desires (https://cloud.vmware.com/community/2019/05/15/vmware-to-acquire-bitnami/): “Upon close, Bitnami will enable our customers to easily deploy application packages on any cloud— public or hybrid—and in the most optimal format—virtual machine (VM), containers and Kubernetes helm charts. Further, Bitnami will be able to augment our existing efforts to deliver a curated marketplace to VMware customers that offers a rich set of applications and development environments in addition to infrastructure software.” Coté: so Bitnami is a thing that packages up software (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitnami) for you in (VMs?) containers and stuff, maybe with some Helm chart stuff for deploying to kubernetes? And a service that manages them in EC2? Jay@451 (https://clients.451research.com/reportaction/97114/Toc): “The acquisition will also help VMware support applications in various forms – including VMs, containers and Kubernetes Helm charts – across the different infrastructures. With Bitnami, VMware is also positioned to support ISVs and open source software components with Bitnami's catalog of curated, secured, certified components.” “VMware says it has acquired Bitnami for its multi-cloud competency and its Kubernetes expertise. VMware's acquisitions of CloudVelox, Heptio and CloudHealth have signaled its appetite for multi-cloud and Kubernetes.” The New Stack coverage: “Monocular, a service described by Bitnami as an open source search and discovery frontend for Helm Chart repositories.” https://thenewstack.io/vmware-to-acquire-bitnami-the-app-marketplace-platform-and-container-packager/ (https://thenewstack.io/vmware-to-acquire-bitnami-the-app-marketplace-platform-and-container-packager/) Holy high street, Sainsbury's!

As a result, or so Jordan claimed, the mart spends 30 per cent less on infrastructure, and regularly sees a 70-80 per cent improvement in performance of interactions on the website and batch processing.” Australian $50 bills (https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2019/may/09/australian-50-note-typo-spelling-mistake-printed-46-million-times) Symantec CEO Greg Clark steps down, stock drops (https://www.cnbc.com/2019/05/09/symantec-ceo-greg-clark-steps-down-stock-drops-.html?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter_axioslogin&stream=top) GitHub Package Registry: Your packages, at home with their code (https://github.co/2DZiJGY) JFrog and Sonatype watch out How Windows and Chrome quietly made 2019 the year of Linux on the desktop (https://t.co/FvmA86HFdU?ssr=true) It’s time for another installment of Coté’s Pedantry on Market Share Analysis (tm). Windows ships a Linux in a nifty VM. Chromebook market share was ~13% in Gartner’s 2016Q4 estimates (based on 9.4m Chromebooks (https://www.pcworld.com/article/3194946/chromebook-shipments-surge-by-38-percent-cutting-into-windows-10-pcs.html) shipped out of 72.6m laptops total (https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2017-01-11-gartner-says-2016-marked-fifth-consecutive-year-of-worldwide-pc-shipment-decline)). Meanwhile, Gartner estimates that something like 2bn mobile devices (phones and tablets) were shipped in 2016. Gartner said shipments for “PCs, tablets and mobile phones” was 2.33bn in 2016 (if I read the press release right (https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2018-01-29-gartner-says-worldwide-device-shipments-will-increase-2-point-1-percent-in-2018) - something around those numbers). …if you run-rate the Chromebook Q4 (which is very kind since Christmas and corporate end-of-year spending is in Q4), you get 2016 shipments of 37.6m Chromebooks. So, out of all types of computing devices, Chromebooks are, like 37.6m out of 2.3bn, or ~2%, right? Clearly: LINUX DESKTOP VICTORY! (I guess you could throw MacOS in there, but those who’d care say that was BSD or something, right? Even if you do throw them in and do *nix market share, what’s it like? Gartner says 2018Q4 (https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2019-01-10-gartner-says-worldwide-pc-shipments-declined-4-3-perc) Apple share was 7.2%, so add in Chromebooks and we’re at 9.2% - round it up for shits and giggles, and we’re at 10%.

Putting together the M&A case for Docker, Microsoft Build, Google I/O, and Oracle’s cloud grudge. Plus: The Most Expensive Free Dog in the World. Dead frogs tell no tales. It’s just me and the dog.

Original HailStorm (https://www.itprotoday.com/windows-78/microsoft-hailstorm-controversy), circa 2002. HailStorm revisited/renamed in the Identity 2.0 era (https://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/10/30/microsoft_generva_hailstorm?page=1). And now? FB and Google authentication, I guess? (Also, remember this presentation (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrpajcAgR1E&feature=youtu.be&t=24) that launched a million single word per slide talks?)
