In this episode we are looking at an emerging field which is bringing together two transformative fields in tech - edge, and AI.

Traditionally, the intense compute requirements of AI have made it difficult to implement on edge devices - cell phones, laptops, or micro-electronics. However, that is slowly changing, and the global edge AI market is set to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 21.0% from 2023 to 2030.

So, to find out more about edge AI, and the challenges or opportunities they can bring to our organisations, we’re joined today by Peter Moser, Senior Distinguished Technologist at Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

In this episode we are looking ahead to the Enterprise tech event of the year, HPE Discover Las Vegas, which is on during the week of June 17th 2024.
It’ll see curated programs of events across Edge and networking, Hybrid Cloud, and AI. Hundreds of sessions will provide an opportunity to network for thousands of global tech leaders, customers, and partners.

And, to give us a bit of a sneak peek of the event - and his own keynote at Las Vegas' iconic Sphere - we’re joined today by a very special guest: HPE President and CEO, Antonio Neri.

In this episode we are looking at a growing issue in the tech field: Burnout among cyber security professionals.
A report shared by the Information Systems Audit and Control Association shows that 51% of people working in cyber security may leave their job in the next year because of stress.

But it's not just the stress of protecting organisations that is having an effect on people’s mental health in the sector.

It’s an area that led today's guest, cyber security expert Peter Coroneos, to set up Cybermindz.org - a not-for-profit to help address and prevent burnout in the cybersecurity industry.

In this episode we are looking at computers going fast. ‘Exascale’ means a computer is running a billion, billion operations every second.

At the 2024 ISC high-performance conference in Hamburg, Germany, the world’s second exascale machine was officially recognised: The Aurora supercomputer at Argonne National Laboratory officially broke the exascale barrier at 1.012 exaflops. So why does exascale matter, and why is it so difficult to achieve? Joining us to discuss is Susan Coghlan, Project Director of the Aurora exascale computer at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility at Argonne National Laboratory in Lemont, Illinois.

In this episode we are taking a break from the norm to bring you a few of the amazing stories from the world of science and technology that haven’t quite made it into the podcast recently.

Our goal is to bring you a lot of amazing stories and important technological developments on this podcast, but the little stories in the middle where we take a break don’t always get the attention they deserve. So, this week, we’re bringing you some of the stories from around the world that haven’t quite made the podcast yet. And, of course, you’ll find details of all the stories we feature today in the show notes.

Don’t worry, this isn’t a regular thing - we’ll be back to normal next week.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

In this episode we are looking at why people are moving away from Virtual Private Networks, or VPNs, and are navigating towards Zero Trust Network Access, or ZTNAs.

VPNs have largely been unchallenged as the go-to cyber security option for organisations since they first came about in the mid-1990s. However, they do have security flaws which have been exploited by hackers and cyber criminals, leading many to ask whether there’s a more secure solution.

Joining us to discuss why ZTNA is becoming a more popular security option for organisations is Jaye Tillson, HPE’s Director of Strategy in Cyber Security.
