'In the end, it takes both the business and IT to be successful… Image Credit. In every business, there are internal conflicts. One conflict that almost every company seems to have is the failure of the business side of the house to see eye-to-eye with the IT department.

Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability.

'I took a little stab at OpenStack’s claim of being a Cloud OS. Any solution that bills itself as an OS should have the features of an OS. My dig on OpenStack was that it was taking liberty with the term OS as it doesn’t have the ability to cluster across cloud providers without a third party solution (RackSpace did reach out to me and promised to show me how they do it).

At the same time, the global business landscape is only becoming more complex due to varied factors.

As the title suggests, perhaps what we now term as “social media”, is perceived differently by the people that use it, plan it, deal with it, or design it. In fact, the “it” is precisely what defies pinpoint accuracy. And the saying goes, if you cannot measure (or define it), you cannot manage it. Social media management is, thus, an epic challenge.

Applying deep insight and rubber stamping are such counter-propositions.
